Hotel Sandhill Guest House (Oxford, United Kingdom)

Sightseers and air passengers were chuffed with the location of this village guest house as it put them a short drive from both Blenheim Palace and London Oxford Airport. Furthermore, lovers of the great outdoors enjoyed being able to easily explore the countryside scenery of the nearby Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Drivers welcomed the free parking and often commented that it was simple to get to Oxford city centre and other local attractions. Moreover, there were several dining options situated within easy driving distance.

Travellers spoke highly of the comfortable and clean rooms with pleasant decor, cosy beds and free Wi-Fi. Little luxuries like the Egyptian cotton towels and free toiletries also won praise as did the powerful showers. Those prioritizing affordability frequently remarked that they got reasonable value for money thanks to the competitive room rates.

The welcoming, friendly and helpful hosts reportedly had plenty of local knowledge and also made guests feel right at home with little touches like cakes and hot drinks on arrival. The delicious breakfasts went down well with diners.

Some critics wished all the rooms had contained en suite bathrooms. Instead, guests in one of the rooms had to make do with a private toilet and shower room just along the corridor.

The village location seemed better suited to drivers. However, the property was reachable by bus for non-drivers. In the evenings and at weekends, when buses were less frequent, access sometimes became trickier for those without their own transport.

Many guests enjoyed a quiet stay. However, light sleepers noted that the sound of footsteps from adjoining rooms sometimes travelled rather easily due to the wooden flooring.
