The room was lovely - spacious, clean, and with a very comfortable bed. The hotel's character added to its charm, and its location was convenient for exploring nearby attractions. The staff were pleasant and helpful, and there was ample car parking available. a great experience.

Felt at ease throughout my stay, with the staff always ready to assist. Nothing was too much trouble.

We stayed here for a night and loved it. The hotel is located right in the heart of the community, making it so easy to explore the local town and enjoy the lovely local cafe nearby. We even caught an event at a nearby palace that finished late, and it was so convenient to be able to come back here for some much-needed rest. The staff were incredibly hospitable and friendly, providing excellent service room service and housekeeping as well as offering a welcome drink upon arrival. The room amenities were great too, with ironing facilities and heating to keep us comfortable. We even had access to a terrace with garden furniture, which allowed us to enjoy the warm weather outside.

The location was perfect for visiting Blenheim Palace, just a short walk away. The history of the property added to the charm of the experience.

For the price we paid, we got amazing value - a lovely quirky hotel right next to Blenheim Palace. The super king bedded room was absolutely lovely with a really comfy bed and a well-appointed bathroom complete with lovely toiletries. Plus, the freshly cooked breakfast was delicious and served piping hot. The character of the building was also a big plus, and the pub across the road was excellent. Lastly, the receptionist was really helpful and accommodating when we had an issue with our room and even upgraded us to a better room.

The location of Macdonald Bear Hotel is excellent, allowing for easy access to local amenities and attractions like Blenheim Palace. The hotel itself is set in beautiful coaching inn buildings. Our room felt cosy and private, as we were lucky enough to stay in one of the quaint cottages. The facilities provided were more than satisfactory, and the bathroom had premium quality Elemis products. We were pleased to find that the hotel is dog-friendly, as we brought our Dachshund along with us. The wicker dog basket provided in the room was a lovely touch. The highlight of our stay was the restaurant experience. The carefully selected menu impressed us, and each dish was beautifully presented. Fernando, our waiter, provided excellent service and made us feel valued as guests. Breakfast was another delightful experience, with a good selection of cooked items served hot. Despite the high volume of guests, the wait time was minimal and the staff were attentive.

The location was perfect for exploring the nearby attractions, including Blenheim Palace. We were pleasantly surprised by the spacious and comfortable room. The hotel had a nice atmosphere and we particularly enjoyed spending time in the courtyard.

I had a fantastic stay at Macdonald Bear Hotel. The room was spacious and beautifully decorated, making me feel right at home. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, ensuring that all my needs were met. The location was perfect, with plenty of attractions nearby. Despite a small issue with check-out, the overall experience was exceptional. I would highly recommend this hotel for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

Our stay at the Bear Hotel was delightful. The location couldn't have been better, with everything we needed right at our doorstep. The building itself was beautiful and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Our room was spacious and comfortable, and the breakfast was delicious.

One drawback was that the view from our room wasn't the best. However, with such a charming village to explore, we didn't spend much time in the room anyway.

The hotel is located in a beautiful area, close to Blenheim palace and the village center, offering easy access to restaurants and bars. The rooms have delightful views of the square and countryside, providing a peaceful ambiance. The breakfast staff is friendly, serving delicious food and fresh coffee. Furthermore, there is a charming cafe next door, perfect for a quick bite or drink.

The overall service and furnishings were not up to standard, with tired and outdated elements throughout the hotel.

Great complimentary Wi-Fi and free parking, located near good restaurants and bars. The hotel had quality beds that provided a good night's sleep.

The breakfast buffet had limited options, lacked restocking and the cooked breakfast took too long to serve. The staff seemed stressed, making errors on people's bills, and the set menu lacked variety over two nights.

the room was beautifully clean and comfortable, with a double-height ceiling that added a special touch. The staff were excellent, providing polite and friendly service. Woodstock's charming Georgian architecture and leafy streets added to the delightful atmosphere.

Toilet out of order.

Perfect location for visiting Blenheim Palace.

All was perfect.
