    great location
    friendly staff
    good breakfast
    greasy food

    Nice spot near Blenheim

    Had a decent stay here. The food was on point, especially the breakfast! Super close to Blenheim Palace which was a big plus for us. Room was comfy and just what we needed. Only thing that was a bummer was the mixed grill. it was greasy instead of grilled. But everything else was solid.

    historic charm
    shabby rooms
    kitchen noise

    Cleanliness and hygiene standards, Large car park, Historic charm of the building

    Tired and shabby rooms that could use significant updates!!! Noise from the kitchen area disrupted my stay and resulted in discomfort. A little more focus on room maintenance and attention to these details could really enhance the experience!!!

    noisy neighbors

    I recently stayed here for two nights and absolutely loved the amazing Indian buttered chicken for dinner, and the room was newly refurbished and very clean. I would definitely return for more delicious meals!

    great location
    tasty indian cuisine
    friendly staff
    missing refrigerator

    Had a great time with friends! The location is perfect for countryside walks along the canal path and is near Blenheim Palace and other scenic areas. The restaurant was a highlight with its tasty Indian cuisine and friendly staff. Breakfast was also top-notch! Highly recommend a stay and don’t miss the food here!

    The only downside was that there was no refrigerator in the room, which would have been nice to have for drinks or snacks.

    clean environment
    lack of personal touches

    great stay but room missed a few touches

    The room was spacious, allowing us plenty of room to relax. We particularly appreciated the ample parking, which made accessing the motel effortless.

    The room could have used a few more personal touches.

    comfortable room
    great amenities

    great access to parks and stunning nearby landmarks

    I stayed here last month and was thrilled to discover the beautiful Secret Garden just 3.5 km away and the historic Blenheim Palace a short drive, making my city strolls around the area unforgettable. the room was spacious, with comfy chairs and modern amenities, which made relaxing after my adventures all the more enjoyable.

    Nice outdoor area, including a children's playground. The room felt a bit cramped with too much furniture around.

    tasty breakfast
    garden setting
    charming grounds
    noisy guests

    Tasty breakfast options left us well-fed, especially with all the choices available. The grounds offer a charming garden setting perfect for relaxing with a drink, despite the close proximity to the main road.

    The room felt cramped due to an overload of furniture, limiting space to move around comfortably. Noise from upstairs guests early in the morning disrupted our sleep, raising questions about the soundproofing between floors. Experiencing the bar's closing hours unexpectedly being enforced left us disappointed, as we planned to unwind there after a long day.

    Sturdys Castle Motel offered a delightful stay with a warm welcome and a charming atmosphere. The location is perfect for exploring nearby Blenheim Palace, and the restaurant's Indian cuisine tempted our taste buds. limited storage space slightly hindered unpacking. it felt like a lovely retreat.

    delicious food
    helpful staff
    clean room
    limited storage space
    kitchen noise

    The food at Sturdy's Castle impressed me greatly. I had a delicious Biryani that really hit the spot. Staff friendliness stood out too. they were attentive and polite throughout my visit. The room I stayed in was clean with good bathroom facilities, though the bathroom could use some updating. Some noise from the kitchen area disrupted the early evening quiet. A couple of minor issues popped up, like limited hangers and storage space. The location is convenient for visiting nearby Blenheim Palace, which was a highlight. I felt the price point for meals was a tad high. prices seemed just over what I expected for a pub meal. All these factors made for a mixed experience, but the overall ambiance kept me coming back for more.

    friendly staff
    spacious room
    greasy mixed grill
    limited buffet selection
    dining choices

    Welcoming and friendly staff made the stay feel special. The room was spacious with a comfortable bed, good TV options, and ample refreshments. Breakfast was particularly impressive, with generous portions and quality food. the mixed grill during dinner was overly greasy, and the buffet could benefit from a wider selection. Though conveniently located for local attractions, enhancing the dining choices would elevate the experience further.

    Had a great time with friends! The location is perfect for countryside walks along the canal path, and we loved visiting nearby Blenheim Palace and exploring the local area. The restaurant serves excellent food, and the beds were comfortable. Don't forget to try the full breakfast! Super convenient for a fun getaway.

    One downside was the room had very little storage space, which made it tough to unpack, especially with limited hangers.
