Perfect location for attending a wedding up the road. Walkable back at night.
Lovely friendly staff, beautiful room with character and fantastic bathroom.
They were also great at accommodating me for lunch and breakfast as a Coeliac.

It was in a perfect location for visiting Blenheim Palace
The Duke of Marlborough is a quaint building just outside Woodstock and Blenheim Palace, the birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill. It offers free parking and hearty, locally-sourced food.

The staff on reception and in the baton were amazing ..only little thing I would say I'd personally like some coffee sachets like nescafe as we're not hugely into machine coffee and more that 4 of those tiny milk portions

Arrived slightly early (20 mins) but room still not ready, waited a further half hour and were told we would have upgrade to larger room however reception experience not great. Room was clean and well appointed with a very comfortable bed. Evening meal poor, menu incorrectly typed leading to confusion and food overcooked and tasteless. Breakfast buffet very tired looking, bacon inedible, mushrooms tough and fried egg solid as opposed to runny. Overall impression hotel being run on a shoestring with young inexperienced staff and no evident management guidance.

We used this location as it is close to a railway station into Oxford. Parking at the station appeared to be free as we could not find a pay machine.
We also used the Oxford park and ride - it was excellent and very reasonably priced.
I also played golf at Kirtlington (about 10 miles away). Great course and a very friendly club.

book evening meal before your stay.
book evening meal before your stay. We were not able to because of staff shortages so therefore had to travel for evening meal. We would have had it at the hotel if possible as the standard of food for breakfast was great!

The hotel grounds, most facilities, and location were all good - the reason for selecting along with the price. Reservations made via Booking.com, with payment on arrival - for room and breakfast. However, it soon went wrong because breakfast seating (party of 6) was a problem - we were given excuses about too many guests and too few staff - even though they took our money as soon as we arrived. The first two days were embarrassing mainly because of staff attitude (not everyone, thankfully!).

The hotel is not in the village, but on a crossroads about half a mile away. The village did not seem to have much to recommend it. The pub was shut when we walked over, but that is not the point, the hotel is in a central area with lots of places to visit around.
The Room was a nice size overlooking a courtyard garden. The hotel is in a quiet location with nothing within walking distance, there is a JET service station across the road with sandwiches, beer, wine, crisps etc. Blenheim Palace is about 6 miles away and we spent Saturday there. Plenty of staff and all were very friendly. Breakfast is buffet style and contained everything we wanted. The Menu for Dinner was good and had a reasonable selection of dishes, likewise the bar was well stocked although on the high side price wise.
What I paid was the top end of my budget - but the lowest end of what was available in the area... wow was I happy with the value for money! Spacious, colour-coordinated, softly lit, super comfy room, looking out on a scenic garden courtyard. On heading out for an early morning run, the gentleman on reception directed me on an excellent route around Steeple Aston, which offered sightings of wildlife and thatched cottages.
Really pleasantly surprised by how nice it was. We booked the trip at the last minute and choose it because it was extremely good value compared to other hotels over the Easter weekend (and had good reviews). Very nice room and gorgeous bathroom with a lovely view over the garden. Looked like it had been refurbished with good quality furniture and finishes in recent years. Really nice staff at reception.
The ambience. Staff looked happy and were friendly as well as efficient.
Breakfast was well presented, good quality food and tasty. Same for the evening meal.
Beautifully decorated in the communal areas and comfortable.
Garden was well kept and pleasant.
I loved the hotel and would recommend.
Very nice hotel with excellent staff and service provided could not do enough to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Breakfast buffet was fantastic and plentiful and even did a plate of sausage for my dog! Would definitely stay again.
