When we arrived it was very busy in the restaurant but the staff still booked a taxi (and recommended the bus to return) into Oxford which was a great help. The room was a great size and lovely and warm after the cold weather. The bed was very comfy and the room had everything we needed. The bathroom was large and the shower was one of the best we've ever used at a hotel. We only stayed one night and ate in the restaurant. The bar is very comfy and cosy with an open fire. The restaurant was brilliant with great choices to eat. We both had 3 courses as we were celebrating. The food was served quickly and was all very tasty. There was also a great selection of wine and drinks at the bar. We'd told them that I was celebrating ending my chemotherapy treatment and they knocked the price of a bottle of wine off the bill which was a lovely touch and really made me feel special. Breakfast was also very good. Lots of choice and cooked fresh, to order. All of the staff that we came into contact with were welcoming and helpful. We will definitely return.

The Black Boy is located in a very quaint residential street. There are bus stops and shops and restaurants about a five-minutes' walk away. The Airline shuttle stops at Headington Shops bus stop too. The rooms were renovated in 2019. The bed was comfy and the bathroom eas very modern and clean. They restock mineral water, coffee, milk, tea and cookies every day. We took the bus into town and back and all around Oxford and even to Woodstock. The bus drivers are very helpful and buses come quite often. We never waited more than 5 minutes. At breakfast there's a choice of 5 delicious dishes (including full English!), hot beverages and orange juice. Everything we had was fantastic. The staff is really friendly and helpful. We'd love to stay at the Black Boy again!

Wow! I wish I was a travel blogger so I could tell everyone about The Black Boy. It is a wonderful place to stay or just visit for lunch. Gorgeous decor and amazing, friendly staff. A little bit outside of Oxford, but we managed to walk there and back or less than £10 to taxi to the station. We arrived before 2 so had a lunch special, which was 2 courses with a glass of wine for £16. The food was phenomenal, high quality, and worth more than the price advertised. The bedroom was lovely, tea/coffee, biscuits and bottled water. All toiletries were provided, and the shower was good. The best part was the bed, so comfy!! We would definitely stay again and have recommended to all our friends.

Lovely pub in a very convenient location for our needs. It is located in a small village on the fringe of Oxford but with good bus links into town or even London via the Oxford Tube. Headington is a 6 minute walk where you can find lots of amenities. We stayed in a double room above the dining room and couldn't hear anything from the pub when we retired. Room was well furnished and the mattress/pillows were very comfortable. Had dinner in the pub, food was very good indeed and they had an offer on Berry Bros & Rudd Crémant de Limoux Brut for less than £23. Breakfast was excellent with plenty of tasty options on the menu. Friendly attentive staff too.

We loved this hotel it’s beautiful. Tastefully decorated in relaxing colours and with respect to its history , classy yet comfy. That’s a nice balance. Katie the owner is great I wish her all the success she deserves. The restaurant is superb our meal was delicious. Truly great chefs and all the staff seemed happy. A lovely garden with acers and a magnificent mature ash so good to see it thriving. Altogether a lovely stay a real pleasure. Not too many rooms so lovely and quiet. Gorgeous fittings and oak doors so lovely and quiet. We will definitely be back if we have the opportunity to visit Oxford again or stop on route to the West Country for a rest.
