The bar food, Sports TV and free WiFi give me all I need for a one-night stopover. Will definitely use again. ##### David Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Susan 8 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Cheap, Clean, we’ll worth it Very central for all the places we wanted to visit. Clean and tidy. Staff very welcoming. Food was lovely with an excellent choice. ##### Susan Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Mr Peter 22 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very convenient for my purposes e.g. visiting family in Twyford. It doesn't pretend to be something it isn't and this is reflected in the prices. That said it has everything you'll need, it all works and the food and drinks pub prices and quality. ##### Mr Peter Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### David 20 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Reasonable rooms but avoid the restaurant Previous experience with Green King properties has been negative, so I was initially impressed when checking in. All reception staff were extremely polite and helpful. The room was fairly spacious with a sofa on one side. The room was quite clean, as was the bathroom. The bed was very comfortable, and there was a large TV. The shower has good pressure and maintained a fairly constant temperature. The main negative was the extremely hot temperature; there was only a small fan to help with this. The window barely opened, which exacerbated the problem. The restaurant, however, was awful. Firstly, the table was sticky which makes you doubt the general hygiene within the establishment. Then, you're forced to download yet another app to order food, or join a long and not moving queue at the bar. There was no cutlery in the self serve tray, so they had to be requested from staff, these were dirty when brought to the table. The quality of the food was below average; chips stick together, too much use of the microwave, etc. ##### David Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Craig 8 Aug 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities It was fairly clean. However. Peeling paint, chipped and stained furniture, and a restaurant that makes Wetherspoons look like a 5 star establishment means we won't be back. ##### Craig Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Lizzie 4 Aug 2022 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Old & Haggy This hotel is well overdue a update and makeover ##### Lizzie Stayed 1 night in Apr 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### I 17 Sept 2023 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### 3 star average but comfortable Clean but very aged. Table top fan faulty, hair dryer old and only hot, bathroom very aged and crack in sink. Bathroom definitely needs modernising ##### I Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Andy 7 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good value but tired. Room was big enough, somewhat tired and dated, bathroom was shower in bath and curtain, room faced the road so not quiet. The mattress was well past it’s best and far too soft for me. The food in the pub was good, as was the service. Would be good if sleep was easier. ##### Andy Stayed 1 night in Jul 2022 ### 4/10 Poor #### Tali 3 Mar 2024 Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities The shower was out of order, the sink was almost falling off the wall, and the walls were in a state of disrepair. Unfortunately, the staff were mainly at the pub, which is very nice, they were too busy to attend to guests at the reception at all times. ##### Tali Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Michael 2 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness Food was disappointing. Continental breakfast looked very sad. Poor selection of very small muffins. Hot water for tea was only warm. Lunch baguette was inedible - the baguette was as tough as leather. Room was clean and presentable. However, the carpet was threadbare at the entrance to the bathroom. The surface around the sink was damaged. The reception desk was rarely manned. ##### Michael Stayed 1 night in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Neil 31 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Always a good stay.

I didn"t need it but ideal for someone with a child. The best place zi stayed in a excellent value ##### Kathleen Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Dr. Mrs. Charles 6 Aug 2025 Bed was excellent, as was the coffee.
