The hotel was originally a large Georgian house and its 22 elegant rooms are unique, telling stories past and present. Some still have their original fireplaces and wooden panelling and the furnishings are an eclectic mix of traditional and contemporary. The beautifully designed and well-appointed rooms are brought to life by being named after - and depicting the experiences of - characters or iconic products connected to Oxford. Each tale is displayed on the walls for visitors to enjoy, with some rooms offering views of the best attractions in the city. The team at the hotel have just launched the Punting Breakfast Tour where guests can enjoy a delicious breakfast while leisurely gliding along the Cherwell River, immortalised by resident Kenneth Grahame’s masterpiece Wind in the Willows, in a chauffeured punt. After collecting a wicker hamper from reception, guests can take a short taxi ride to the Cherwell Boat House for the start of their tour, or enjoy a leisurely 20-minute stroll to get to the river. Delights will be served from the Vanbrugh House Hotel’s continental breakfast hamper whilst local guide and Oxford University graduate, Iain Stevenson expertly punts and entertains visitors with stories of the city’s history, and architectural landmarks. This exclusive one-hour breakfast tour is available before the riverboat houses open to the general public ensuring a peaceful experience and costs £100 based on two people sharing a room.
