Great location, staff, food and room and bathroom were of a high standard
Pros:

Prior to check-in, the hotel reached out for names of guests and when I explained it eas a mother daughter weekend they very kindly offered to turn the room into twin beds for us. We didn't even have to ask. Very thoughtful. The staff at the hotel made the stay for us. Very personable, chatty and great advice about the surrounding area. Gorgeous evening meal and breakfast in the hotel. In particular evening meal was served by a young lady who did a 1st class job of efficient, friendly and the great skill of being very graceful whilst working quickly and efficiently. Free secure parking.

Comfortable but expensive.
Pros:

Welcoming staff, room clean and comfortable. Bathroom facilities very good. Heating and cooling of room very good. Complimentary snacks and lemon drizzle cake provided on arrival. Excellent location for visiting Blenheim Palace and Woodstock village.

Cons:

Not great value for money, especially as breakfasts are not included in the room rate and costs £25 pp to add on. Lots of excellent cafes in Woodstock offer more reasonable breakfast options.
Parking is a bit of a faff having to find the site, key in a code, open gates manually, drive in and park and then close gates manually both ways - arrival and departure.

A lovely hotel in a beautiful village, let down by a young staff who are far too casual.
Pros:

The room was lovely, clean, and the free mini bar was well stocked. We booked a meal of the tasting menu at The Nest, in the hotel. It was excellent food. The hotel is well situated in the centre of Woodstock, just a short walk from one of the entrances to Blenheim Palace.

Cons:

The staff were very polite and helpful to guests but far too loud and chatty amongst themselves, even in front of guests waiting to be served at reception.In the morning, at 7am, leaving our room, we could hear them chatting in reception to each other all the way up the staircase. In the dining room, the plates were just ‘plonked’ down, the wine very nearly spilled as it sloshed in the glasses. Explanations of the tasting menu courses were garbled and short.The staff walked far too quickly past diners, making the whole area feel like a thoroughfare. It was such a shame. As a young staff, we felt that it wouldn’t have taken much just for them to be told to act more professionally in the guest areas, and the whole experience would have matched the surroundings.
One more point, the wine flight for the tasting menu should be upgraded as the standard of the food was far above the quality of the wines served with it.

Pros:

Everything at the Feathers was lovely. They even gifted us a bottle of processco as we were celebrating our 40th birthdays. The room was lovely and clean and the staff very welcoming. We found the beds to be on the hard side and the shower (water pressure amazing) did leak. Overall I would recommend this hotel but without breakfast included we found it to be slightly pricey. It also would have been nice if the fires were lit in the communal areas.
