Overview

117 St Aldates Building is an annexe of Christ Church and is centrally located, just across and at the top of the road from the main site.

Guests are accommodated in newly refurbished, comfortable double ensuite bedrooms with a standard double bed (for single or double occupancy) (all guests must be over 18 no refund if the requirements are not met). A selection of rooms has street-facing windows (please note there may be noise disturbance) but many have restricted views over the backs of other buildings. The rooms are located over four floors and can be accessed by a lift.

Check-in at the Porters’ Lodge within Christ Church, located at the main entrance, off Tom Gate. For arrivals after 1930, Tom Gate will be closed so please use the bell on the left-hand side to alert the porter in order to gain access.

The lodge reception is staffed 24 hours a day and is the only information point for 117 St Aldates Building as there is no separate reception in the annexe.

The college is unable to accept bookings for Stag and Hen groups and can only accommodate adults (aged 18 and over). This includes babies/children sharing a room with adults. If such a booking is made you will be asked to cancel it, the refund amount will be in live with T&Cs or if you arrive at the property you will be refused entry and no refund will be given.

We had such a lovely stay! The room was available a little earlier than expected so we were able to check in quickly and with ease. They were very kind at the porter's lodge and made us feel so welcomed. Calling a taxi was a breeze. The room was clean and comfy. Breakfast in the Great Hall was fantastic. And really appreciated being able to leave our bags at the porter's lodge after we checked out. Thank you for such a lovely time. And happy we got to meet the two cats. :)

Hooks for towels would’ve been much appreciated as we didn’t know where to hang our towels to dry. There’s one towel rack in the bathroom but it’s too small (for 2 people to hang 4 towels) and it’s hung right by the toilet & toilet bowl brush which didn’t feel very hygienic. Otherwise everything was brilliant!!

Great experience overall! The cleaners may have forgotten to open one of the drawers of the bureau above the coffee maker ...there were wrappers, etc. from the previous guest. It wasn't a big deal, but just would be good for them to check.

Very wonderful experience, everything was great, maybe one tip, when booking please remind that the plugs are UK plugs and might need a converter. Otherwise, wonderful experience.

Room was very clean. Shower and bed a bit small. The air in the corridor outside the room was very stuffy and stale. Still good for the price though.

Absolutely stellar lodging. Loved my time in St. Aldates. Breakfast in the Christchurch Great Hall is truly special.
