Marta K. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

The hotel was conveniently located for visiting Blenheim Palace and had ample parking. However, the cleanliness of our room and the apparent shortage of staff let the stay down. In room 201, the carpet was dirty, the bathroom drawers were sticky and left noticeable dirt on a baby wipe, the bed runner was stained, and the tea and coffee tray was dirty and appeared not to have been washed. The king-size bed was actually two beds pushed together, with an uncomfortable dip in the middle. When my daughter joined us during the night, I ended up lying across the join. Staff seemed to be covering too many responsibilities to provide an efficient service. One person was covering both reception and the bar, while at breakfast one lady was taking hot food orders as well as replenishing glasses and food. Although my status was acknowledged at check-in, I missed the personal touches I have often experienced elsewhere, such as a welcome note, a small gift, or a slightly larger or quieter room or one with a nicer view (or simply an explanation when an upgrade is unavailable). These gestures help me feel that my loyalty and custom are appreciated. I contacted management directly with photographs to give them the opportunity to address the cleanliness concerns privately. At the time of submitting this review, my feedback has not been acknowledged.

As expected. Actually had the room I used 45 years ago which was before the new block was added. The room has been significantly updated and was very comfortable. The basin didn’t drain well and I reported this so hope it has been sorted. Room 19.

Fay C. Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

Room filthy. Carpet severely stained all over, very large brown stains by the bed and dressing table. Thick dust all over the light fitting and lampshade, bedhead and extractor fan was caked in dust and dirt. The walls were marked with dark scuffs and both chairs looked like someone had sat in them with fake tan, with again funny looking brown marks on the seat. Bathroom on the floor at the edge of the bath had a build up of scum and dirt/hair ground into the edges that you could wipe with tissue and it came away, bathroom door looked like it had toothpaste on the inside all around the handle, clearly not cleaned or wiped. It was almost like the room had not been cleaned apart from the bed being made and then left empty for months and suddenly they needed it? After much discussion the manager gave us another room. Was much better but still not great, thick cobwebs all over the curtain pelmet, clearly not throughly cleaned. Shame as we were only staying one night and wasted precious time sorting out the room instead of being with friends we were meeting so not happy at all. Staff didn’t seem to bothered and just went through the motions. Reception was dismissive so spoken to manager but much better.

Dear Fay, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. Please accept our sincere apologies for the cleanliness issues you experienced during your stay. This is certainly not the standard of cleanliness and service we aim to provide, and we are truly sorry that we fell short of your expectations. We understand how disappointing and frustrating this must have been, especially as you were only staying for one night and had to spend valuable time resolving the issue instead of enjoying your time with your friends. We are glad that we were able to accommodate you in a different room, although we sincerely regret that the cleanliness of the second room was also not up to the standard you deserved. We also apologise for the impression given by our staff, as every guest should feel welcomed, listened to and cared for. Your feedback is very important to us, and we will share your comments with our housekeeping and reception teams to help ensure that these issues are addressed and do not happen again. Once again, please accept our sincere apologies for the inconvenience and disappointment caused. We appreciate you bringing this matter to our attention and hope you will give us another opportunity to provide you with the comfortable and pleasant stay you should have experienced. Kind Regards Hassan Raza
