I arrived on the bus from Heathrow, the hotel was only a minute from the bus station. While breakfast was not available in the Bocardo there were good tea and coffee facilities in the room, and a coffee shop on the street open from 6am where I had an acceptable breakfast. The room was very comfortable, clean and nicely furnished. It was perfect for my needs, a parent attending an Open Day at the University. The location was excellent for visiting colleges, and the Jamie Oliver restaurant on the ground floor a bonus!
