Overview

The river Cherwell runs through Magdalen's grounds which include over 100 acres of parkland - a beautiful and tranquil area in the heart of the city. Along with the magnificent cloisters, deer park and quads with formal lawns and borders. They claim to be the most beautiful college in Oxford which are not without foundation.

The College offers rooms on its main site but also rooms in their Waynflete Building across Magdalen Bridge, with stunning views of the College. In this building, modest rates do not include breakfast. Whichever Magdalen accommodation you choose to book, you can be sure of a warm welcome at the Porters' Lodge, from one of the property's student staff or the porters themselves. One of them will show you to your room and answer any queries you may have. You will also have free access to the College main grounds.

Important notice: There are no passenger lifts in the accommodation buildings, and there is no parking at the College but there is chargeable public parking nearby.


Check in: 14:00 (2:00pm) - 23:00 (11:00pm) (no arrivals allowed outside this window)

Check out: 10:00 (10:00am) - 10:00 (10:00am)

This is our second stay at Magdalen College and it did not disappoint. The porters were friendly at check-in and the building, though old and basic, was immaculately clean. The rooms overlooked the river and were great value.

AlexO

Nice clean big room, nice location good to have tea & biscuits provided. Gentlemen in the porters lodge were very helpful. Only complaint is I couldn’t borrow a hairdryer.

Anon

Basic facilities, but clean and good value for money. Very simple booking and checking in processes. Helpful porter services.

TerryC

Room basic, but quiet and comfortable. Not ensuite. This room had a washbasin which was a great advantage, others do not.

Anon

Great experience which is very different to what you get in an ordinary hotel. Really worth it.
