Your space to relax, stay and be active

Located on Mansfield Road, the University Club is a welcoming space for Oxford's staff, postgraduates and the local community. We offer comfortable guest accommodation and flexible meeting and event spaces open to all visitors, University Sport fitness facilities, and a variety of community-led clubs and classes. Our cafe and bar are closed until late 2027, but the rest of the Club is open as normal and ready to welcome you.
