Good service in the bar and restaurant and was easy to amend our booking.
Was disappointed with the room for the money we paid.
Very nice hotel, friendly staff. Close to Vodafone HQ where I was working and Newbury town centre for restaurants. Room was spacious and comfortable, great bed.
Nice hotel with friendly, helpful staff.
The breakfast and food in the restaurant was good and the facilities are very nice.
I don’t agree with the extra charge to use the swimming pool though and feel this should be included in the room rate.
Everything great, especially the restaurant food. Only issue was the breakfast coffee machines. As someone who likes coffee especially a cappuccino in the morning, the machines didn’t appear to be ‘bean to cup’ and the milk was not fresh. Sort out the coffee and my stay would have been excellent.
Great location, really comfortable room with everything you need, great breakfast, but most of all really nice staff / service which makes all the difference. Dog friendly as well!
Everything was good especially to relax considering we were there for a family funeral in the Newbury area.
The staff were all friendly and the whole stay was a pleasure to be there.
I Spent a night here on business. It provided a quiet and friendly environment, with a good restaurant, making it an ideal place to stay after a long hard day's work.
We had a suite and the size was excellent but the windows in both rooms were too small to let enough natural light in.
Reception were great, the spa was excellent with plenty of beds round the pool. Breakfast was good apart from the fruit.

A wonderful hotel with a superb spa and beauty salon . The bar and restaurant are are both very spacious and the food is good ! The breakfast is excellent !
Friendly staff allowed us to check in earlier than 3pm as room was ready which was convenient. Comfortable room. Staff very friendly. Food was very tasty and good portion sizes. Spa facilities very good.
On arrival the reception staff were very welcoming, I believe the lady who dealt with us was called Katie. The staff in the restaurant in the evening again were lovely, very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble.
