Overview

A very warm welcome to St Benet’s Hall. The Hall is located in handsome Georgian buildings on St Giles, conveniently located in the city centre. The Hall offers the following B&B:

B&B in the Hall Guest Room - twin ensuite which overlooks the garden at the back of the Hall, accessible via two flights of stairs. Please note that there is no lift in the Hall.

B&B in ensuite twin rooms, or one single ensuite room. No TV. A hospitality tray is provided in term time for the one ensuite twin room available. Please note that these rooms are located on the 2nd and 3rd floor and there is no lift in the Hall.

B&B in standard rooms (single or twin) with shared unisex bathrooms.  No TV or hospitality tray.  Most of the single rooms are located on the top floor (4th), accessible via a steep staircase. 

With the exception of the Hall Guest Room, guests should be aware they are staying in student undergraduate accommodation.  Although the rooms are not to hotel standards, they are clean, tidy and comfortable.

The Hall does not have Porters or a 24hr Reception, so guests are asked to please be prepared to carry their own luggage.  In addition, regretfully it is not possible to store luggage for guests after the 10am departure.

Location ideal for our purpose, short walk from the center. House wonderfully quiet, rooms spacious and bright, over-looking the lovely scenery of St. Giles and some ancient colleges. Rooms spotlessly clean and very pleasant with a wonderful wooden desk, comfortable chairs, and a coffee-maker. Bathroom clean. Friendly hosts, and breakfast in the hall sufficient. Excellent front-door security. Only a hop over the street from my favorite watering hole, the Lamb and Flag. Will come back. Thank you.

I was met by the Junior Dean and given clear instructions on re-entry to St Benet's Hall. My room was spacious, clean and well-appointed. The bed was comfortable, and there were facilities for making tea and coffee, as well as an eclectic collection of books. Because the room overlooked St Giles , and the curtains were not too thick, it was quite light through the night, but that did not stop me sleeping. Breakfast was good, and sharing it with post graduate students a novel experience.
