2/10 Poor

Poor, very poor
Very poor indeed. Was checked in and told 'oh by the way we have no hot water'. Was given the option to book at another hotel but without an immediate refund it wasn't possible. Lots of apologies but to be honest was a poor response. No offer of compensation. Not even a free drink! Even with hot water I would never stay again, Customer service was lacking somewhat. Even when I did check in and put my registration number in their tablet I was told I put the wrong number in! Like I don't know my own reg!! Stayed for 2 nights and hot water was never fixed even though the radiators were crazy hot. I'm in the trades so a wash was much needed after a day's work. Sponge bath and boiling the kettle is not good enough Will never stay again that's for sure

Fantastic Hotel
We love this hotel, have stayed here x4. We had a ground floor room which was spacious & clean, very comfortable bed with lovely bedding. The bathroom and shower had all you needed and the apartment was well equipped. Fantastic breakfast and fantastic food with happy friendly staff. We visit family in the area and will choose this hotel each time we come. Super location! Super vacation! Super happy! Highly recommend. Thankyou!

Good value.
Good value for the price. Exceptionally clean.Large spacious room, very comfotable bed. I requested a ground floor room; I was told it would open onto the car park which is in a secure off-street courtyard, but that was actually very convenient for me. Good breakfast. Centrally located in Newbury.

4/10 Fair

This hotel is very dated. There is no elevator so we carried our luggage up 2 flights of stairs. There are very few electric outlets in the room and none by the bed. The room was stuffy and the window was difficult to open. The staff try to do their best. Would not stay here again.
