Mercure Oxford Hawkwell House is a picturesque boutique hotel occupying three buildings, two 19th century manor houses bursting with character. The hotel is newly refurbished with a décor based on Oxford style vintage fashion.
Set amongst 3 acres of private gardens and only 2 miles from Oxford city centre, Mercure Oxford Hawkwell House Hotel is a beautiful country manor in the picturesque village of Iffley. A total of 77 rooms, all en-suite, are divided between two buildings, each with an entirely different character.
It's a 10 minute bus ride from the bus stop outside the hotel to the city centre and train station, or a relaxing 35 minute walk along the riverside Thames Path National Trail, which is just steps away from the hotel.
