Duke Of Marlborough  

The staff were very friendly

Problems with hot and cold water in the morning? Maybe everybody trying to shower at the same time? This was hot and cold water! Could not even able to flush the toilet!!!!!

The landlord in the pub was affable and entertaining. In fact, the pub is the best part of this place. Go there for a drink, especially one of the excellent selection of whiskies.

We weren't expecting to stay in a pub, and the website gave no indication that this was the case - the photos suggest something more like a hotel. We weren't travelling on a budget, but this felt like budget accommodation. There are many other better places in or nearer Oxford for the same price. The rooms are cold, poorly furnished and finished, and uninviting; they were unprepared for us even though we had a confirmed booking. The location is miles from anything, and even the nearby, uninteresting village is too far a walk. As a one night stop- over the hotel is merely adequate, but we would have moved on immediately if we had planned a longer stay.

Everything ! Location, warm reception by staff, comfortable, well appointed, warm room with excellent bathroom. We had a very relaxed supper and just had a good time !

Value for money and did serve its purpose very well.

The room could have been cleaner. Brokeb cookies in bathroom floor and wrapper in cupboard.

Comfortable and clean beds. Really good breakfast - lots of choice.

Slightly misleading location details in description as we were looking for accommodation in Woodstock (to walk into Blenheim Palace) whereas the hotel was several miles out of the town in Woodleys. However parking was very easy at Woodstock and Blenheim.

Location just outside of Oxford, easy access to the city bus and ride servcies.

They made us very welcome, the food was good, staff friendly, close to everything we wanted to do.

The food was excellent, it was comfortable and friendly and very convenient for seeing the surrounding area.

Location good but all looking a little tired. Shiny/worn seating in bar and toilets not clean. Didn't feel ' clean'. Staff were all pleasant but thought the price high for room only.

Great breakfast

For the price that I paid, the room was too shabby. Some of the stuff was broken and not repaired. On the 1st day my children and I used up the towels and they were dirty, but the hose keeper didn't replace the towels but hang them back despite that they were soaking wet and dirty.

The staff were welcoming and friendly. Room comforable. Food in the Restaurant excellent. Position ideal for visits to Oxford & Blenheim Palace.

The only downside to our stay was discovering the W.C. in our bathroom had not been cleaned. The problem, however, was dealt with efficiently and fairly promptly. I like to think it was just a one-off oversight by the housejeeper!

The John Dory soup was nicest soup in the world, the food and service are very good but the hotel seems to lack a bit of atmosphere. It was plain everyone there used it very much as a base. Our room cleaner did a fab job.

Easy to find
