a romantic getaway

attentive doorman alice lamps scrambled eggs

This hotel easily ranks as the finest we've ever stayed in, surpassing even notable hotels across the us, france, germany and italy. the attentive doorman immediately charmed us. He assisted with our luggage. we especially adored the alice in wonderland theme, subtly woven through guest rooms with rabbit and alice bedside lamps adding a tender touch of whimsy. the breakfast buffet offered many delicious options, including scrambled eggs cooked in butter- DIVINE!!!

i found that the air conditioning and heating is centrally controlled. as a guest you aren't able to change the settings. this did cause some discomfort .

Location

The hotel boasts a central location. Several colleges are just a brief, romantic stroll away, and the ashmolean museum is conveniently across the street. additionally, blackwell's bookstore is nearby, offering seven miles of bookshelves for literary exploration.

Rooms
