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.
We stayed for 3 nights B&B.
Very good price for area good variety of breakfast.
Staff very helpful.
Property is a old coaching inn so very large and quirky.
Rooms are dated but comfortable.
Lovely stay in Newbury. Room was clean and beds comfortable. Breakfast could be improved

The room was extremely hot and unfortunately with the room window being street side, I was woken up at 4am by delivery trucks.. had very little sleep due to the noisy world outside.
Recommend having a room nowhere near the street

Central to town and local amenities . Easy access to attractions close by . Brilliant staff, friendly and professional .
All in all the hotel was good for everything we needed. although the room we were in for one night was tired Although we knew the room was going to be small. It needed t l c( especially the bed )we were there only one night It served our purpose Would we stay again definitely
Very nice overnight stay. Good location for walking into town. The room was VERY hot, I opened the window but somehow that did not seem to add to the ventilation so didn't sleep too well. But would I recommend it - yes, would I go back there - yes.

Pretty good overall for the price. It’s an old hotel and some of the plumbing is in need of updating but otherwise it’s ok. Would stay again if I can get a deal through a discount app.
Pleasant stay at this hotel in June 24.
Room was on 2nd floor and had no view.
Room was warm and had a fan for additional ventilation.
Starting to look a little tired in places but overall had no issues and a good nights sleep.

A day at the races
Great location only 5 mins from the racecourse, good breakfast, good value , free car parking , fluffy towels , comfy bed , probably needs a refurb in places ( windows ) traffic noise woke us up quite early but not an issue! Quick check in & out all in all a good stay .
