Great pub , great location. Fabulous breakfast
Pros:

Very friendly and helpful staff. Great location. Nice and clean room . Excellent shower and shower gels available. Breakfast was excellent. Large choice on menu . Great location for Blenheim palace. Lots of coffee shops and pubs . Definitely recommend and I would stay again.

Cons:

Only downside, if I was to be critical, would be parking . You pay a £10 parking permit for 24 hrs . You park outside on the street. I read the reviews beforehand, so it wasn’t a problem for me .

Pros:

Koselig pubovernatting med stort, veldig hyggelig rom. God stemning på stedet. Gåavstand til Blenheim Palace.

Cons:

Vi bodde der på veldig varme dager, og rommet ble naturlig nok også varmt. Vi hadde vifte på rommet som hjalp litt.

Beautiful building, staff good, room was dreary, bathroom & temperature control poor resulting in a a very uncomfort
Pros:

The history of the building

Cons:

The room we stayed in was called Harold.
It was dark & dingy, the bathroom light was so inadequate I had to shave by the light of my phone.
The weather was fantastic but the the fans in the room were totally inadequate.
The rooms need to be sympathetically updated to the 21st century with walk in showers & made more light & airy for me to stay there in the future.
