Good reception. Room very hot, window opens about two inches. Both bedside lamps not working. No sockets by bed. Socket by desk not working. Shower not draining almost overflowing on completion. Tea and coffee and biscuit were fine.

A hidden gem!!

Great little traditional hotel in lovely countryside south of Reading. We had a huge room at the front,huge flat screen tv great big bathroom couldn't fault it apart from the doors not closing and locking properly! Good breakfast in lovely dining room overlooking a beautiful garden and river. Coffee could have been a freshly machine made or a cafetiere nobody around to see if we needed anything extra,like more toast! Will definitely come back!!!

Decent place, but let down.

Toilet simply was not refilling. Told staff the next morning and was told “it does fill, just very very slowly. We will get someone to look at it”. Waited over 10 mins for the toilet to fill but still no good.

2 Nights - great stay

Stayed for 2 nights whilst on business in Reading. Very comfortable room, great food and staff are so friendly. I arrived late on the first night so Mark made me an off the menu snack which was very much appreciated. A big thank you to Sue - my car had a flat battery in the morning and she leant me jump leads and helped try to start my car - all sorted in the end and I'm very grateful. Would definitely stay again.

This was our second visit to this hotel. The hotel is spacious and clean with beautiful gardens with a pleasant outdoor seating area. The staff are friendly and helpful and you can tell they care about their customers. The breakfast was also excellent. We will definitely visit again.

Lovely setting in a convenient location, rooms and furnishings are a little tired and rooms need some TLC, although function fine. Had a staff member walk into my room, without knocking - he carried on describing the room to a potential guest and pretended not to see me lying on the bed !!! a mumbled non apology and nothing was mentioned afterwards when he was querying my breakfast timings, very uncomfortable - won’t be staying again.
