“Lovely, convenient hotel for Oxford”

“Loved it”
Just got back from a 3 night stay during Feb half term with our children aged 4 and 8. We stayed here as base to visit Oxford and Stonehenge. Ideal location close to the park and ride and on our first evening we had a nice walk down the riverside. The room was perfect. Very clean, comfy beds, gre… more

“Super home from home close to Oxford”
We thoroughly enjoy having the Mercury at Iffley as our ‘home from home’ when visiting family in Oxford. Lovely comfortable rooms - a bit thank you to housekeeping and to Liz and Alan who care for our floor. Thank you for such an enjoyable place to stay …. We will be back!

The rooms are great, spacious and have what you need. What has really made it for us has been 2 staff members. One in particular, we think his name… more

“Decent Access to Oxford, Average Hotel Experience”
We stayed at the Mercure Oxford Hawkwell House Hotel as a couple from 8–12 December, booking a Premium Room for a short festive break. Unfortunately, the stay didn’t quite live up to expectations. Our first room was located near the bar and restaurant and was very noisy, particularly in the evening… more

Key features of the moderation of reviews
There is an automatic system that detects offensive language, in which case the review will not be published. If an owner reports one of the reviews, the review will be re-evaluated and, if it fails to comply with our content standards, it will be taken down.
Our criteria for collecting guest reviews
After getting home from the trip booked with us, the customer will receive an email asking them to review different aspects of each of the services booked. The system only allows the booking holder to complete this review and only once.
When will my review appear on the website?
Reviews typically take less than 24 hours to appear on our website. The process may take longer if our team of moderators have to examine the review in more detail.
How long will my review stay on the website?
Once it has been published, your review will automatically appear in the summary of reviews and if it is considered a featured review (based on publication date, length and quality of content), the complete review will also appear. Said review will not appear or will disappear from the system if it contains offensive language or if it is reported.
Can I get a reward for my opinion?
No. Reviews written in exchange for personal rewards such as gifts, services, or money will be taken down.
Can a review be edited?
No, once a review has been written, it cannot be edited. If you want it taking down, you can ask to have it deleted and not republished again.
Will my review appear on other websites or publications?
Once published, all or some of the reviews written by our members may be used on some of our partner sites or in promotional material in general.
If I write a review about a service, can the provider contact me about it?
No, as the personal data of the booking holder writing the review will not be shared with any service providers being reviewed. In the featured reviews shown, only the booking holder's first name will appear, meaning that there's no way that the service provider can contact you.
