A popular refuge for academics working at the nearby Bodleian – or drinking at the even closer Turf Tavern – with a thousand tales of bygone occupants, this ultra-central hotel consists of five picturesque 17th-century weavers’ cottages, divided into rooms of varying shapes and sizes, some full of historic charm, others a little plain and cramped. Noise can be an issue.
