We have stayed in 3 different rooms at this hotel. All have been delightful. The beds are comfortable, the bedding is thick pure cotton. The bath towels are thick and fluffy and we each had a bath robe to wear during our stay. Each room we stayed in had its own Nespresso Coffee Machine and the reception staff happily brought us fresh milk every morning. The reception staff are friendly, helpful and professional. The hotel is a 5 minute walk from Blenheim Palace and a 30 minute bus ride into Oxford (20 minute drive).

It was a lovely hotel, housekeeping were awesome. Shame about the restaurant for breakfast though. Although the cooked breakfast was good once we got it, it took over 45 mins, on both mornings, to get it. The staff in the restaurant were friendly but lacked some common sense and professionalism at times. On one morning, due to mixed up orders, we ended up with three pots of tea, a pot of coffee and two racks of cold, hard toast on our little table. It was like a scene out of faulty towers. It's actually a real shame about the restaurant, because the rest of the hotel and service was great.

Really amazing hotel. Confusing for an American to hear "Just pull through the arch to the car park" when the archway is like three inches bigger than the car you are in, at least that is what it felt like, haha. But seriously beautiful hotel and rooms. Loved the Churchhill Room. Really good breakfast and friendly staff.

On the surface everything is just about adequate but the staff are disorganised. It took 55 minutes to get the bill presented to fit the room rate and items consumed despite previously checking with the event manager and receptionist. Not on my return list!

Nice old English hotel with excellent service. Quirky layout and 500 year old floors and stairs make it a challenge at times to get around but well worth a visit.
