We were given a voucher for a picnic cruise on the Thames for our 25th Wedding anniversary. In order to make the most of the experience (i.e the wine), we decided to book a local hotel and stay the night. We pre-arranged with the hotel that we could leave our car in the car park for the day, the receptionist... More

The hotel is divided into two sections, one of which is under construction. The result is that one side has a lift with no stairs, and the other side has stairs but no lift. This is a frightening fire hazard on the side with only a lift. The very caring, but disorganized and ill-informed receptionist - Joyce - said "don't... More

Stayed here on business for 2 nights. The hotel is situated about half way down Banbury Road. My room was on the ground floor situated to the front of the hotel facing the road. It was very spacious with a desk, double bed and fire place! It's true that I was woken quite early in the morning from the noise... More

We recently stayed one night at the Galaxie. We had rooms in the front and it was extremely noisy. People partying all night, yelling and slamming car doors in front car park. The room next door had the TV on all night and we could here everything. Shower leaked into the room below, management called us and told us to... More

As others have mentioned, it is incredibly noisy. Both from inside and outside the hotel. I had a small single room overlooking the main Banbury Road. Sleep was quite difficult to come by. Room was tiny, small single bed tucked into the corner, bathroom so small that I couldn't use the toilet without bashing my legs on the wall directly... More

Stayed a few days. Excellent, modern and well appointed, good staff and breakfast. Especially liked the conservatory/garden. Free car parking and loads of buses into the city. Only downside is the busy Banbury Road but Given the location, convenience and quality I can forgive this.

I stayed here last Saturday night and had picked the Galaxie as I was in Oxford for a friend's party nearby. The location is convenient, but there was a lot of traffic noise from the Banbury Rd during the night even though my room was at the back. Room was attractive and well-equipped, but the decoration was starting to look... More

Just returned from three nights at the Galaxy in most unspringlike weather. The hotel was warm and welcoming. Our superior room at the rear was quiet and very comfortable. Breakfasts were excellent with plenty of choice. The staff were friendly and helpful. The Banbury Road is very busy so opt for room at the rear. However, the advantage of the... More

Lovely place, beautiful rooms and bathrooms. Great breakfast BUT people above us stayed up until 1 and every footstep could be heard by us as well as their chatter ( they weren't partying) Such a shame as the place is otherwise perfect.
