The Punchbowl Inn0

The room was excellent, quiet, decorated to a very high standard. Very comfortable bed, everything we needed was in the room. Bonus having space in the car park for free. Based in town not far from Blenheim Palace although we did not visit this time. Stayed enroute to a driving experience next day in Bicester. The bar/restaurant was tastefully decorated, lovely menu and various choices of gins etc.

Unfortunately it seemed like the bars in the area all closed around 10-10.30pm which was a shame, as it was the start of the holiday season.

This was a great family suite for 5 of us. Nice to have two rooms. Staff were friendly and we had a lovely dinner at the pub. Central location in Woodstock. Wouldn't hesitate to stay again or recommend to friends.

The suite was comfortable but there wasn't a single shelf, dresser or hook for organisation. As a family of 5 we arrived in the rain (a common occurrence in England) and there wasn't a single hook to hang raincoats on. This is a small thing as overall we enjoyed our stay but the flip side is that just a few inexpensive hooks on the back of doors would have made the stay that much better.

Brand new, spotlessly clean, and tastefully decorated rooms in the heart of Woodstock. Very spacious with plenty of USB ports and plugs, fresh towels daily, tea / coffee, etc. Lots of info supplied via email before arrival and we were even able to check in early. Very peaceful and quiet room in the back of the pub away from the main road, which was much appreciated given we needed a relaxing weekend.

Would have expected a bigger and more comfortable bed in such a large, well-appointed room (it seemed like a double, but the room could easily have fit a super king!).

Location Size of room was lovely and spacious Super comfy bed Lovely well lit spacious shower room Beautifully renovated room

We had booked on line for a spare bed to be set up in our room...it wasn't set up even though our booking confirmation had confirmed it. At the time we came to our room there was noone to ask. This was instantly corrected the next morning but it meant we had had to share so l didn't sleep well on the first night. Had the bed been available for both nights l would have given this property 10 out of 10. The access corridor still needs renovation .

Good breakfast, cooked to order, dining room fine.

The room was very warm & due to the location near the main road, quite noisy at night, probably worse due to the rain.

in the centre of the town the stylish comfortable pub has beautiful large rooms with wonderful bathrooms with huge showers. It feels homely and relaxed and the staff are, without exception, friendly welcoming and friendly whilst being professional. All in all a lovely place to stay, dogs are welcome. Oh and food….make sure you have a delicious cooked breakfast and very tasty dinner.

My only slightly negative comment the shower which is perfectly good could be slightly more powerful/ lager head to make every use of the huge shower cubicles.

Staff were really helpful and so friendly, it wasn't any trouble to get extra pillows and towels. Rooms were clean and newly refurbished. Location is great. Breakfast in the morning was great and an abundance of choice. Kids even got treated to a selection box each from the owner. Such a lovely family run hotel.

The only thing we found frustrating was the outside door banging everytime it was used. This door is strictly for hotel guests, so not too many instances but would definitely be improved by having a slow close on it rather than the loud bang. It wouldn't stop us from coming back again however.

We chose the Punchbowl for its location as was visiting Blenheim Palace. From arrival in the town it is perfectly located, looks fantastic from the outside and used its own car park, walked through the courtyard garden which on a summers day would not want to be anywhere else, but alas had to check in and leave for day. Couldnt fault the room, staff, cleanliness or the breakfast. Only thing I was disappointed about was we had other plans for the evening and the food looked amazing so couldnt enjoy.

The location was perfect, refurbished rooms are beautifully done and immaculate, the owners and staff were all very friendly and helpful. The room was bijou but very comfortable and had a fan which was beneficial, a little dressing table / tea & coffee making area but no mirror. The hotel is pet friendly and this worked in our favour as we had our dog with us for the weekend. Free parking was available onsite in the car park at the rear of the Pub.

The room would benefit from a mirror at the dressing table area as the only mirror was in the bathroom. The only other quibble was that breakfast was not included in the price. While we appreciate the cost given the location it is something we think should be included.

The room would benefit from a fan to avoid having to open the window as the road can become quite busy from the early hours of the morning. The only other quibble was that breakfast was not included in the price and had we opted for this to be included it would have been more expensive than staying at a 4 star hotel in the village with breakfast included in their rate. While we appreciate the cost given the location it is something we think should be included.
