Great location and breakfast. Bad nights sleep.
Great location, close to the Palace, pubs and restaurants. A really nice breakfast included in our price. Nice view out of our room of the town square. However, the bed was one of the worst I have ever slept on. Very rickety frame and clearly a very cheap mattress. Also, I don’t think I’ve ever stayed in a noisier room, it sounded like the people in the room above us were going to come through the ceiling, and as people walked up and down the hall it felt as loud as if they were in our room. Overall a nice B&B, but wouldn’t have wanted to stay longer than a night as had a terrible sleep.

Lovely, quaint building. Easy walking distance for Blenheim palace. The only negative thing was that the heating came on about 8am, therefore, it was quite cold when i got up, was unable to have a shower because the bathroom was so cold.

We only stayed overnight. We noticed an odour from the shower room which was reported to the desk as we left. We think the drain was an issue which needs attention

Hot day but stuffy and damp smelling despite noisy fan … basic with hard beds and pillows - fine for a night and lower price than other available options in the village but won’t rush back!

A lovely place to stay but let down by poor breakfast in terms of quality and service. Bacon, sausage and hash brown all over cooked, no offer of white or brown bread for toast and served on a cold plate. Staff at breakfast clearly not bothered about us. Walked past repeatedly without asking if everything was ok. Cook literally dropped plates in front of us and seemed to not want to be there! No offer of cereals, although listed on the breakfast menu. A real shame, as the breakfast experience is just as important and the room to me.

I've stayed here before and enjoyed the experience - but something wasn't right this time. My room wasn't cleaned and towels weren't changed. This did improve when the housekeeper returned from holiday. The service wasn't good -I asked if I could have a coffee refill - the waiter said he had to 'get the girl' -there was a very audible ;she will have to wait ' before the refill was eventually brought. On arrival the lady who was asked to take payment didn't know to work the card machine - I was then made to feel guilty that I could pay . The manager came to my room later when i was about to get in the shower and refused to go away until I paid. (Which I did wrapped in a towel !). All in all it was a bit Faulty Towers !

Perfect Location for visiting Blenheim Palace
We stayed at the Blenheim Buttery the night before we visited Blenheim Palace. It was the perfect location. Room was comfortable with all required amenities. Service was good and breakfast was lovely. If we returned to the area we'd definitely stay here again.

I booked a triple superior room, but got 2 single beds.. the third was a foldaway camper bed 🙁. When I arrived in the room the camper bed had not been made up and was missing some of the attachment springs. I’ve got to say however that when I complained to the housekeeper quickly brought up another mattress making the bed more comfortable, although I had to make the bed myself. I’ve got to say however, friends also staying at the hotel loved their room. Breakfasts were delicious despite the service being quite poor (understaffed and inexperienced). For the price we paid, I would still return for a stay.

A Woodstock gem
Lovely small hotel in a charming town with 6 rooms ideally located for access to Blenheim Palace (a 15-minute walk through the park), cafes, pubs and restaurants (traditional pub /hotel, Italian, Asian and Chinese).Very friendly staff. English breakfast is superb. Our room (5) overlooked the main street but we were untroubled by noise.

Great little B&B for a short stay
A great little B&B, friendly service and decent accommodation. Gets really busy after 9am so get to breakfast early. Parking is a bit of a nightmare in Woodstock but that’s not the venue’s fault, just be prepared to take some time to find a space.

What a lovely Town! The Blenheim Buttery is conveniently located for lots of lovely Pubs and Restaurants, spoilt for choice! When we arrived we parked in the local car park, 5 minute walk away, but then moved our car at 6pm to on-street parking right outside of the accommodation, all free. The room was spacious and well equipped and there was a good breakfast selection. Would definitely stay again

Lovely little stay
Lovely clean, small room. Issue with smell from sink (old drains, not their fault!) and blown lightbulb resolved immediately. Staff very friendly and accomodating. Breakfast was lovely. Only downside is the parking - we had to move the car every so often as there is no long stay (+12 hrs) carpark.
