Lovely hotel helpful and nice staff bedroom had everything we needed (including shampoo and conditioner-but no shower gel?) but not a problem Hairdryer /iron /coffee maker/water/slippers/fluffy towels/full length mirror all supplied Restaurant a little disappointing although nice -lots of things not available on menu or what appeared to be left items from Christmas on offer and most annoyingly lots of supplements Breakfast good hot and tasty and plenty of choice but again supplements everywhere!even For avocado on toast -for goodness sake! Would definitely recommend as clean comforting and welcoming-lovely for a relaxing weekend away

We stayed here before and had a great time when visiting Blenheim before Christmas. Just post Christmas it was a bit flat. Initial receptionist was distinctly unwelcoming. The others we dealt with were fine. One of our party had to change room because of a fly infestation (this was dealt with very well). Restaurant food was average. Attention to food intolerances was excellent.

The staff are very good in the restaurant.. The food is passable but not memorable. Breakfast buffet at £18 per person is less apetising than the free one we get at a Holiday Inn express. The room was small and very dated. Yes it is an old hotel but the room we stayed in had little money spent on it over the previous 10 years. The tele was old remote didn't work we didn't have any bottled water in the room and were left with an emptynox of tissues. Tried to arrange for more of all to no avail neither room service or reception would answer the phone. The walls of the room were paper thin and we could clearly hear out neighbors conversations. All this for £174 for the room. Won't be back

Overall the room was great. Atmosphere in the bar / restaurant was limited.Whilst we paid for breakfast, was disappointed to have to pay a £4 supplement for a very poor cappuccino. Room experience really good - out of room experience not so good.

The stay was expensive for the level of service we got - which varied between one staff member and the next. For example, the first receptionist who greeted us was quite rude and abrupt, and others were friendly and accommodating. In the restaurant, only one staff member seemed to be on top of everything, whilst seemed like they did the role infrequently and didn’t know what was going on!

Sadly we were not given the deluxe family room we booked which was in the old part with abundance of old character features and a four poster bed. We had to pay before we were even able to get in the room. When we showed the receptionist the room image we had booked through Expedia, she said that it was not a room from their hotel. The manager then said it was but we had been upgraded to a family suite. In fact, we were given a room in the modern part with zero character that could have been in a Premier Inn. The boys bed was a cheap, small and uncomfortable sofa bed. For £425 we were shocked. No bottled water even and just mainstream tv. Nothing to like about it. The manager put the boys in another room across the other side of the hotel after we complained. Expedia denied misrepresentation and the hotel refused any money back except a discount on dinner but we were already eating out.

What I didn't like was being charged £24 for two poached eggs on toast as when I ordered for three guests I asked if this would be the price of the full English (£24) and was told NO A very expensive breakfast Indeed

On site parking is great. Paid for breakfast in advance but when we ate, we were advised there were supplements for cappuccinos! And not everything was included, so eggs Benedict was a supplement too. Didn’t get offered toast with breakfast. Staff not very helpful. Rooms needed a refresh, there was rust on the shower support. No extractor fans. Could only plud beside lamp in or charger, not enough sockets. Handy location for Woodstock and Blenheim palace. No warm welcome as a returning repeat guest.

The Hotel is looking extremely tired and needs to up its game. We stayed in the Churchill Suite with a Sofa so old that it was probably sat on by Sir Winston himself. The television in the sofa area clearly had never worked me mentioned it on leaving but am sure it is a known issue that never gets fixed. The curtains and blinds are all tattered and old - some money really needs to be spent on this hotel - will stay at The Feathers the next time. Also the hotel needs to invest in some coffee machines at breakfast- rubbish black coffee from a metal flask is not good enough anymore- we are not living in the 1990s. All the Staff were absolutely excellent and very helpful- but The Bear is VERY tired.

We had a 3 night stay at the Bear hotel. The hotels location is fantastic...Blenheim palace grounds are less than a 5 minute walk and the hotel also has its own car park. Itis also situated in the town square. Lots of shops and restaurants nearby. We had a delux room (room 11). Although its front door lead onto the main car park and to be honest is not much to look at from the outside once inside it had a fantastic gallery bedroom that overlooked the lounge. It had a very comfy large bed and a separate shower cubice. Breakfast was very tasty and catered for all food groups. The evening menu had an adequate choice of meal. Service was friendly and polite. I think the hotel is really good value for money and would recommend it to anyone going to visit Blenheim.
