What guests think
Kimpton Clocktower by IHG impresses many guests with its grand historic building, central location near Oxford Road station, friendly service, and generous touches like social hour drinks, though experiences vary by room due to noise and temperature control issues.
Rooms are often spacious and comfortable, but some are small or have limited views, and several reviews note unreliable Wi-Fi and tricky or ineffective air conditioning/heating. The lively on-site Refuge bar, good breakfasts, and occasional complimentary drinks stand out, yet the bar and surrounding nightlife can be loud and the bar may feel crowded or public. Housekeeping is usually strong, though a few guests reported missed cleaning, lingering odors, or maintenance issues. Overall, expect a characterful stay with standout service and amenities, but choose room location carefully.
