Pros: Sehr gute Lage und wunderschönes Gebäude. Cons: Es sollte im Vorfeld kommuniziert werden, dass lediglich ein vegetarisches Frühstück angeboten wird.

Brilliantly accommodating and friendly staff

Staff were all fantastic and very accommodating re check-in times, breakfast times etc. Room was comfortable, bathroom a bit small. I don't think they do the full English breakfast any more but the continental is fine. Location couldn't be better - right next to the cathedral gate.

Pros: Staying in this historic college was amazing. I couldn’t trade it. The breakfast experience is so special. The staff are incredible. Definitely try to attend Mass! Cons: The guest housing is pretty miserable to be honest. While it’s great to stay at Christ Church, the building is shoved in the rear of the campus, with rooms that leave much to be desired. The view out the window is depressing concrete. The bathroom is the worst offender — super small and water spills everywhere.
