This hotel was a grower on us. Very old and looking tired in certain places, the welcome on arrival and at all times on reception, plus the great breakfast and pleasant staff made it a convenient and nice two nice stay.
Very pleasant stay. The building itself has loads of character, the rooms are clean and comfortable. The staff are friendly and accommodating. Finally, a very good breakfast. We will visit again .
The team who work for the Marlborough Arms made the stay an excellent one! Always friendly, offering help or advice, they could not have done anymore. The room was spacious with a great bed and facilities!
Very friendly greeting and although we were early allowed us to check in. Great to have on site parking. Quality and choice of breakfast was very good and amazing home made marmalade and jams. Marked down for eco because we hung up the towels but they were changed anyway. Nice to have bottles of filtered water in room
Great location, friendly welcome, and spacious quiet room (#10) to the back of the proprerty. Short stroll to palace, shops, and restaurants, bus to Oxford stops right in front.
We really enjoyed our stay here, our room was clean, spacious, and comfortable and you can’t beat the location and its proximity to Blenheim Palace. We were also easily able to take the bus to Oxford for a half day using the bus stop right out front. We also enjoyed having a tasty hot breakfast every morning included with our stay. I would definitely stay here again!
We chose the Marlborough Arms in Woodstock for its proximity to the palace.
It’s a lovely old building with lots of ups and downs between floors. The room was clean and tidy, the staff very friendly and the breakfast sets you up for the day.
Perfect stay and we really enjoyed ourselves
Extremely disappointing after see the pics and booking a comfort room, if you book state you don’t want ‘The Studio’ small extension out back in the car park, tiny shower en suite and extremely uncomfortable sitting on toilet due to cramped conditions and a handle sticking out, awful really disappointing
