Good location. Good parking. Quality of breakfast was fair, cooked breakfast was good but not worth £26 with eggs benedict and poached eggs with avocado incurring a further £5 surcharge !!!

Beautiful small town.
Beautiful small town. Plentiful accommodation and restaurants, most of which were dog friendly. Ideal for visiting beautiful Blenheim Palace and nearby Oxford. We ate at Punchbowl pub , good friendly service, very dog friendly, food and drink good. Would not stay at Macdonald Bear next time but probably at one of the many pubs that had rooms.

Woodstock is a delightful historic village full of character and charm.
Everything is in walking distance and lots of parking in the main square., especially at the end near the church
Lots of independent shops, so perfect for browsing
A large choice of excellent places for breakfast, coffee, lunch or dinner
We love Blenheim Buttery and also The King's Arms
The walk around the lake at Blenheim Palace, Winston Churchill's childhood home is absolutely stunning, whatever the weather

Just a quiet ‘market’ town, mostly individual shops where all the staff working in them were genuinely interested in serving you and making conversation as to why you were visiting and where you’d come from.

Our trip was fundamentally to view the lights and the house at Blenheim Palace; the theme was Sleeping Beauty.
We arrived at about 3pm. Just right as dusk was setting in. We toured the house which was utterly incredible - How a person or company could put together such a phenomental piece of design, unchanging in its beauty, throughout the rooms that had been decorated to continue the theme - I do not know. To continue outside and see the light display was nothing short of sensational - it lit up the whole of the 1.5 miles of the walking tour and the evening sky. An unforgettable experience. The next day we shopped through the village enjoying its ancient buildings and some of the shops filled with objects d`art , clothes, furniture and lighting. An experience that cannot be better but can be changed...........in summer.

Woodstock is a pretty medieval town with many eateries, interesting shops, a free museum, lots of walks and, of course, Blenheim Palace nestled next to it in all its splendour.
Apart from the main Street, there are many attractive side streets to explore.
The buildings are attractive, being made from the local stone which was also used to build Blenheim Palace. They appear to ‘glow’ in the sun.

Woodstock has everything you could want from a small town – plenty of nice pubs that serve food, independent cafes and shops, including a great little independent bookshop and Louisa Maybury’s amazing textile shop.
The staff at The Crown were very friendly and helpful . Our room was lovely with a very comfortable king sized bed and nice touches like fluffy bath robes and towels and cowshed bath products . The breakfasts on both days was delicious . It is set in the beautiful town of Woodstock with lots of places to eat and drink and easy access to Blenheim Palace - a gate very near the pub .
Location, location, location! Lovely to have been able to stay so centrally. House was comfortable and just right for a short stay in Woodstock with Blenheim park virtually on the doorstep (if you know where the town gate is!) and plenty of shops to poke around and superb restaurants and pubs.
It is a nice clean friendly little place. It’s basic, but well worth it for the money. The bed was super comfortable with breakfast included and it’s in a great location. We came as we were visiting Blenheim Palace which is literally next door. Woodstock is a realty pretty place to visit.
The location and the room was very comfortable, but not worth the price taking into account, the greeting from the host no parking and quality of breakfast.Stayed at the Marlborough Arms previously and will definitely choose that or the hotel The Bear on our next visit..
The King's Arms offered an ideal and inspiring venue for a weekend in Woodstock. An amazing price deal for an extremely comfortable, beautifully decorated and well-equipped room matched by a very warm welcome from the staff. Both lunch and breakfast were delicious.
From the friendly service we received on arrival, the beautiful rooms which exceeded our expectation for the price and the great value breakfast, I would highly recommend this hotel if you are planning a visit to Woodstock.
The bedroom was excellent. albeit with a rolling floor, due to the age of the property.
Check-out was 10.00a.m., but our hotel parking permit ran out at 12.00 noon, giving us time to explore Woodstock before moving on.
Location was perfect, bang in the center of Woodstock and enough free parking in front of the hotel. Dinner was very nice. We were only disappointed that the cider was finished and wasn't refilled during our 2 day-stay.
The location was perfect - we love the village of Woodstock and Blenheim Palace which is in walking distance. The hotel was warm, cosy, clean with good facilities, quality bathroom products and the food was great value
