Lovely stay overnight. Very welcoming staff at check in. All staff very friendly and clearly making a top effort for you to enjoy your stay. Pool facility was great. Room was well equipped . Could have done with a lick of pain on decor in places but not overtly noticeable. Would recommend.

Great reception team. We had to drop our bags without checking in to catch our son’s event. They took care of it! Had a great meal on the way out. 2nd stay in three weeks. Great location just outside of the busyness of Oxford.

VOCO Oxford Spires is in walking distance to Oxford Center and has an amazing staff. From check-in with Meagan who suggested to us a walking tour that was brilliant, to Mali who greeted us each morning at breakfast. A great crew. I also observed Meagan trouble shooting another guests booking issues and she was totally professional and caring- impressive service all around. Clean rooms and good dining led by Vignesh and Tamney. We watched England vs. Swiss. A great team ar this hotel. Not your least costly option, but with service like this, totally worth the cost and more.
