Highly recommended
Room is massive. We walked in thinking it was going to be a small room but it’s really big, very spacious. The bed is unbelievably comfy. Recommend the stay as it’s a one minute walk from town centre. Service is very good and people there are lovely.

Great room out the back of the pub. They have been done really nicely. I was worried about noise as it was a Saturday, but it was actually quiet. Would definitely recommend.

Average stay
Bedrooms are in need of a refresh, not as nice as the pictures suggested. Expect noise until about 10pm from the pub. Bed was not great, sagging and lumpy. Nobody was to be seen in the morning for checkout or breakfast so not sure how that works, I went and got breakfast in town.

Horrible hotel, dirty and smelly and the food is horrendous. Soend your money elsewhere.
Barbara, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Absolutely lovely place to stay. Staff super helpful. Fantastic value for money! Gorgeous terrace outside which is lit at night and so pretty! Beds comfy and bathroom well appointed. It is noisy, but that is not the hotel's fault. It is in the centre of Newbury and there is traffic. Bit of renovation to be done outside, but I guess they'll raise the prices when this is fixed. Didn't bother me that the paintwork was peeling outside.

Central location in the town centre and friendly staff
Martin, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

I thought the staff were very friendly but the overall condition of the property was very basic. I would not recommend any of my friends to stay.
David, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Bedbugs
The staff made sure I either arrive before they close up or that they have made arrangements for me to check in. The room is seemingly clean though ridden with moths and bedbugs which I have been their food for the night keeping me up the whole night.
