We had a wonderful two night stay at the Black Boy. Both rooms were clean and had everything we needed; comfy beds, coffee/tea and friendly staff. We enjoyed a full English breakfast (not included in the room price) and a lovely dinner. The food was excellent. We were lucky to secure a parking spot right in front of the Inn; be aware that parking is limited. This was a perfect place to stay and explore Oxford; the neighborhood was quiet and away from the busy city. We enjoyed a walk after dinner in the quaint neighborhood. Highly recommend staying here!

Room and bedding and towels etc all high quality and clean... staff very helpful especially with directions to the hospital I was attending for an small operation. Needed to leave car parked beyond the usual parking guidance and this was agreed at no additional cost. Highly recommended overall 👌

Really welcoming and friendly staff. Room was comfortable, clean and well equipped. Had evening meal in the pub and even though they had two large groups in for Christmas meals they looked after us really well. Staff are the standout but the place overall was great

Lovely stay thanks to wonderful staff, though not as quiet or restful as I would have liked. Location is convenient for Oxford Brookes University and bus stops with routes into Oxford Centre. On arrival, I found out breakfast is served between 8 and 10, so I would miss breakfast on the two mornings of my course, as I had to leave at 7:30 on Saturday and 7:45 on Sunday. For Saturday there was nothing to be done, but for Sunday the incredibly lovely and attentive staff made me an early packed breakfast + lunch (as an alternative to make up for missed breakfast on Saturday). I am so grateful for the staff's kindness and flexibility, arriving early on Sunday to make sure I was fed - this is why I'm rating with 5 stars. I was only able to enjoy the delicious breakfast served on site on Monday - great variety and everything super tasty. Room and bathroom was super clean, nicely decorated and with welcoming touches: complimentary still and sparkling water, coffee, and biscuits. Mattress was uncomfortable, pillows were nice. Important to know: the rooms are right above the pub and three of them (mine included) face the street. Windows are not double glazed, so it is quite noisy until 11 pm on Friday and Saturday (car noise from street, conversations, laughter, music, and doors slamming). Lack of double glazing also makes for draughty rooms, and for some cigarette smell to sneak in from outside.

This is a lovely thoughtfully styled hotel. The staff are all genuinely friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable and clean. Decent water pressure in the shower. Generous supply of tea/coffee in room. Variety of tasty options on the dinner menu. The Full English Breakfast is a must have. Good central location for sightseeing. Would highly recommend and definitely would return.
