I visited Oxford for my reunion with a friend who hadn't been there, so I wanted her to have as much and as authentic Oxford experience as possible. Hence, we chose college accommodation. Wadham was amazing with its spectacular historic buildings, beautiful quads and minimalistic, yet comfortable and well-thought rooms. The breakfast was better than in many hotels and the fact that we were having it in an impressive historic hall made it really special. And the staff was really nice and helpful.

My sister and I stayed at Wadham College for a weekend. We both really enjoyed the stay. It was a wonderful experience to stay in a college and we were pleasantly surprised with the quality of the breakfast. Staff were friendly and helpful, the beds were comfortable and the showers hot - we couldn't have asked for anything more. We look forward to staying in college accommodation again.

Our stay at Wadham was excellent. The staff were welcoming, the college beautiful and the room large and comfortable. My only complaint was that the light to the bathroom turned on by motion censor, which meant that when I got up to use the bathroom at night, my wife was woken up by the light as the door to the bedroom was next to the bed.

What an amazing experience to be able to stay on the grounds of one of Oxford’s College - a real immersion into the life here in this world famous town. Many thanks to Wadham College's team for their welcoming. Would recommend without any hesitation.

Such a beautiful place to stay. The grounds were such a treat and the en-suite room so comfortable. Had such a good sleep. Enjoyed a cooked breakfast in the impressive dining hall. Wouldn’t want to stay anywhere else in Oxford after this experience.

It was a lovely experience staying in such a beautiful place. We embraced student accommodation and found it to be clean and comfortable. It’s no frills but we were very happy to stay there and do much nicer than your average hotel!
