Alison Parry (St Hugh's College, Oxford, March 2010): I had a fantastic stay! Room was fantastic, very comfortable and clean in beautiful grounds. Internet service was very reliable. I was able to get another room in St Hugh's after this first period - which gave me the much needed time to rent an apartment for the following months of my placement! Thank you St Hugh's (the staff sorting the accomodation were amazing!) and thank you universityrooms for providing a great and reliable booking service!

David Vishanoff (Trinity College, Oxford, March 2010): The staff at Trinity College was very hospitable, and the whole experience was delightful.

Mary Davies (St Stephen's House, Oxford, March 2010): I loved my stay at St Stephen's! Loved walking through the cloisters - a serene and beautiful setting. Loved that there was a bustling main street just a stone's throw away with lots of shops and good restaurants. Loved the whole experience. Thanks a million!

Irene Cradick (University College, Oxford, March 2010): We were delighted with the whole experience at University College and have had no hesitation in recommending it to others.

Jeffrey Knowles (Jesus College, Oxford, March 2010): My wife and I enjoyed our stay here very much. The staff, especially the porters were very friendly, welcoming and helpful. The rooms were very clean and tidy. Breakfast in the Great Hall was a real treat. And the location was fantastic. Will definitely be staying again. Jeffrey & Ljiljana Knowles

paul riggs (Keble College, Oxford, March 2010): A fantastic experience and an economical stay. Being in the heart of Oxford allowed us to feel at home rather than a visitor. Thoroughly recommend to any traveler

Colin Scannell (Keble College, Oxford, March 2010): Would stay at Keble again and again - an incredible experience; like stepping back in time, in comfort ;-)

Miss Christine Barrett (St Stephen's House, Oxford, March 2010): A good way to visit Oxford without spending too much money and a good opportunity to see something of the university facilities.

Ellen Stewart (Jesus College, Oxford, March 2010): A friend and I stayed here for a few nights and loved our rooms. Standards of service were excellent. There was a problem with our plumbing, but it was quickly resolved, and this is fair enough in an old building. I've spent time in Oxford before, but staying in a college transformed the city for me - peering through closed gates at the colleges is a far less pleasing experience than coming and going as a resident, albeit temporarily!

Katie Garner (St Hugh's College, Oxford, February 2010): Faultess. Brilliant to have car parking available and so close to the main university buildings. I was also very impressed with the breakfast service and selection. I have since recommended St Hugh's to other postgraduates visiting Oxford for conferences and research visits.

Christopher Harris (The Queen's College, Oxford, February 2010): I heartily recommend Queen's College accommodation. Great website too

John Moore (Keble College, Oxford, February 2010): Our rooms were in the new wing at Keble College so we were spoiled! They were clean and quiet. The porter's lodge answered all our questions and were very helpful Our visit was most enjoyable and we hope to return in the future.

Jill Burn (The Queen's College, Oxford, February 2010): We had a wonderful time, especially as the room overlooked the street. What a wonderful town. I do think it's a bit expensive for the standard of room, which was nice but basic. I would consider staying again even at that price. Jill

Johan Schoeman (Wadham College, Oxford, February 2010): My wife and I stayed in what could be described as the honeymoon suite - a large double room with small kitchen. It was splendid. The breakfast is a real treat enjoyed in the magnificent Hall. All the staff were extremely helpful - porters, kitchen staff and management. This has been the second time we booked a College Room through UNIVERSITY ROOMS - first in Cambridge and now in Oxford. Both experiences were very positive. A brilliant concept, but not necessarily for budget travellers, because the rooms are not that cheap. Johan P Schoeman, South Africa

Linda Andrews (Wadham College, Oxford, February 2010): Amazing value for money!

Nicolla Greaves (Lady Margaret Hall, Oxford, February 2010): For what we needed (a bed for the night) I thought the halls were a great place to stay and considering there are not many reasonably priced hotels in the centre of Oxford itself, the accommodation was perfect.

Michael Punch (Jesus College, Oxford, February 2010): The frontline staff that I met with were very good - friendly and helpful. I appreciated the availability of internet access in the room. Many thanks.

Mr Neil F Brown (Wadham College, Oxford, February 2010): We had a fantastic stay at Wadham College and as an ex-Student I would highly recommend staying at an Oxford college which gives a real experience of what it is like to study at Oxford

John Ray (Keble College, Oxford, February 2010): We had a most enjoyable weekend. I had no idea (as an Emmanuel man) that Oxford has almost as much to offer as Cambridge. City bus tour especially helpful. Dinner in hall was amusing (we could chat to other residents) and particularly good value, with bottle of wine included. We have been recommending these weekends to our friends. Thank you, John & Caroline

Wayne Clarke (St Stephen's House, Oxford, February 2010): We were a group of 5 and needed 3 seperate rooms. The breakfast was outstanding. You don't pay your chef enough. The location, access, and accommondations suited us all well. We think we got a bargin price. We would use it again. Pastor Wayne Clarke

Stephen Mitchell (Wadham College, Oxford, February 2010): The quality of the room was excellent - it had obviously been recently refurbished but still maintained its historic character. The college green spaces are beautifully maintained. All staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast experience in the dining hall was also excellent, with very friendly staff. This was a great way to experience Oxford.

Lana Myers (Trinity College, Oxford, February 2010): The people at the Porter's Gate were incredibly kind!

Claire Turner (Trinity College, Oxford, February 2010): It was a lovely, large very clean room with good tea and coffee facilities. I knew it was not en suite, but it was along way down the stairs in the night to the basement toilets!! I don't suppose it can be helped! The breakfast was delicious with lots of choice, the porters and other staff most helpful and polite

Adeline Johnson (St Stephen's House, Oxford, February 2010): We decided that the lady in administration was the most helpful person of anyone we encountered at a hotel, B&B, or rooming facility on our trip. She gave us excellent directions, and lent us materials to pack up some books we bought to send home. She really went the extra mile for us!

Christina Renczes (St Stephen's House, Oxford, February 2010): My stat at St. Stephen's was wonderful! Very friendly staff, great rooms and excellent breakfast! This place is one of my favourite places in Great Britain!

Julian Taylor (Balliol College, Oxford, February 2010): I had a wonderful stay and would never consider anything else. Thanks!

James Ramage (Balliol College, Oxford, February 2010): Wonderful atmospheric place to stay - central - especially loved the dining hall for breakfast - quite expensive though for standard of rooms

Berenice Scott (Wadham College, Oxford, February 2010): A very enjoyable stay in an extremely spacious room. A little table inbetween the beds would have been very useful.

Paul Twynholm (Keble College, Oxford, February 2010): A special place to stay for a weekend visit. thanks

Mrs Marie Lowe (St Stephen's House, Oxford, February 2010): We love staying in uni rooms but we would not recommend to friends unless we knew they did not mind basic accomodation. Our stay was in an excellent position for walking to Oxford centre.

Kathryn Varley (St Hugh's College, Oxford, February 2010): I would certainly use this service again and have no hesitation in recommending it to others. A very enjoyable and comfortable stay. Thank you

Martin Baum (Trinity College, Oxford, February 2010): Excellent on all levels. Glorious surrounding, excellent service, and great value for money. Would definitely use again

DeAnn McAllan (Keble College, Oxford, February 2010): It would have been really nice to have a place to meet/relax with others on campus. We checked out the bar but it either wasn't open or didn't seem comfortable. Great otherwise. Will definitely book again.

MICHELLE ASLETT (St Stephen's House, Oxford, February 2010): St Stephen's was a fantastic place to stay, thanks! The ladies who cleaned our rooms were particularly nice and very helpful. I was extremely happy with the online service and ease of booking and checking in/out - my first visit to Oxford was WONDERFUL, thank you.

Robert Claxton (Keble College, Oxford, February 2010): We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The room was clean and comfortable. Being in the middle of the capus had an atmosphere we would not have been able to experience in a hotel. In addition, the location was within easy walking distance of shopping and restaurants. The only downside was the lack of parking.

Katie Scott (Trinity College, Oxford, February 2010): Was fantastic staying in a college - far more homely than a hotel. The staff were lovely, especially the porters. I would definitely use the service again.

Simon Stevens (Wadham College, Oxford, October 2009): A wonderful night in Wadham which took me back to student days elsewhere in Oxford. The great thing is that this experience is now open to everyone. The room was lovely, the college grounds were well kept and full of interest, and breakfast was plentiful. At breakfast I was welcomed very nicely and shown what was where, then shown to a table. To anyone staying in Oxford I'd recommend a student room over a hotel any time, for the experience. Wadham in particular did it very well. Good luck to all who offer and take up this wonderful scheme.

Meriel and Jim Bradford (St Stephen's House, Oxford, October 2009): It would be helpful to allow new arrivals to purchase an additional breakfast as we arrived after an overnight flight and had to go out to find breakfast on our first day. Staff were very helpful and polite. Information on using the telephone especially the fact that one needs to dial 9 for an outside line would have also been useful. Overall very good value for money and we would recommend it to others. Many thanks. PS We also found the Cowley Church SS Mary and John and visited it which was a wonderful bonus to our nostalgic trip in the wartime footsteps of our parents, Meriel Bradford

Janice Rossen (Balliol College, Oxford, October 2009): Peaceful, lovely view from window, magnificent dining at breakfast with interesting fellow visitors. I will definitely stay again. Thanks so much!

Dr Amani Bell (Keble College, Oxford, October 2009): We very much enjoyed our stay at Keble College. I recommend it to anyone who wants a brief experience of college life.
