4. The Dolphin

3.1 km from Watermill Theatre

"Check-in and check-out were incredibly easy. The room and the washroom, were quite spacious and clean. The complimentary coffee and tea were nice, and they also have a nice selection of juices and breakfast foods available downstairs for guests to enjoy. The slight downsides were the hair dry being quite dusty when I tried to use it, and the building is rather old so the windows had a slight draft. This wasn't an issue for us during the summer, but I can see it being slightly cold in the winter....

Top Watermill Theatre Hotel Reviews

De Vere Wokefield Estate

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed our stay. The dining options were"

voco Reading by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Love staying at this hotel and we always use it when we are passing by for Legoland, London or airport stays. It has a really luxurious feel but without crazy prices. A hotel room can host a family of five which is a big plus for us so we don’t have to pay for two rooms. Rooms are huge! Also great coffee in rooms as well as a big bottle of still and sparkling water and treats like Biscoff. Also have sockets on the bedsides for charging which is always helpful in a hotel but often not provided. They also do a great breakfast."
