The Punchbowl Inn

Had a complete nightmare with this place. Very unaccommodating and inflexible. They wouldn't move my booking to any date in 2025 as there was no availability. Tried to talk to the owner but it was a one sided conversation, very surprised by all the positive reviews, perhaps he was just having a bad day. I won't be returning to find out.

Had a complete nightmare with this place. We couldn't go because of the storm. Roads were blocked so physically couldn't get to the hotel. Phoned to cancel and Tony ended up shouting and hung up on me. They wouldn't move my booking to any date in 2025 as there was no availability. Steer clear!

A very warm welcome on arrival, a beautiful well equipped room, spotlessly clean. Fab location. Little sign saying ask for ear plugs if required but so quiet it wasn't necessary. Highly recommend the Punchbowl and its staff and quality of accommodation. Will definitely stay again. Thank you Tony and the team .Keep up the great work.

Great local Inn to stay at in Woodstock. Friendly staff, good food, convenient parking, and nice room. It is in the center of town with lots of local restaurants and pubs to choose from nearby. The breakfast was also very good. Very much recommended.

If you would like to stay in a place where the service is from the 1970’s, then this place is for you! I was informed at check in that nothing can be charged to your room. Breakfast only ran for 90 minutes and I needed to fill out every detail of my car and display a permit to use the car park. Check out is at 10am and at 10.15 (sorry I was a bit late! As modern service standards are usually 11am) the cleaning lady walked in (no knocking) whilst I was getting dressed and demanded I left. I explained I was without trousers and couldn’t leave currently, she then told me that it wasn’t her problem (I think it may have been) and I had to go. I told her this was not possible due to my undress, she then told me she was going to get ‘the boss’. The boss never came and I was out by 10.30 and no one was even there! Breakfast: They don’t offer anything other filter coffee and the hot menu is just old fashioned fry up options. Also; Displays of tampax, cheap razors and kids sweets and toys everywhere also are a little dated This property doesn’t match up to other inns in Woodstock and certainly doesn’t match modern day service standards for the price point.. Shame, as the location and finish of the bedrooms are nice.

Terrible Hotel & Restaurant Food, service, staff horrific I would not recommend Complained to the owner Tony by e mail and had a reply of ‘thanks for your comments’ Unbelievable DO NOT VISIT Terrible Hotel and Restaurant which is such a shame as location is perfect
