Very Good

Rather an odd property, at the race course. Took ages for staff to assist with check-in. Rooms were clean and comfortable, although no air-con. A fan was provided thankfully. We had a poor experience at the restaurant for dinner, staff were slow and didn't seem interested in serving us. Food was not impressive, either over or under-cooked.
However, the cooked breakfast in the morning saved the stay, it was very good and quick.
Clean and spacious hotel, there was plenty of options for breakfast, all the staff were friendly and helpful.

Lovely setting and nice building. Some minor scuffs that need routine maintenance. Shower gel was empty in the shower and the kettle continued to boil. Overall, a nice hotel in spectacular location, just needs some improved attention to detail.
Lovely hotel - a bit out of the way if you're not going to the races, but easy enough to find with a car.
Friendly and helpful staff. Nice food in the restaurant. Very comfy bed and quiet surroundings.
Would recommend.
This property is excellent for a short break for a couple of days.common areas spotless.
Room clean, bed very comfortable. Staff welcoming, helpful, qall you could wish for.
Apparently the property was originally built by Newbury racecourse for the jockeys. Possibly because of this there are few creature comforts such as no fridges, cupboards or desks. You hang clothes on a rail in the bedroom. None of this would really matter to the short stayer clients.
Also the basic room is rather cramped so we asked to be moved to a larger room which was readily made available
Self service continental breakfast and cooked breakfast is cooked to order and was excellent. Nice bright and airy breakfast room with full bar available either inside or outside. We thought it great value for money
Located Newbury racecourse grounds, plenty of free on site parking. We used as a base to visit Highclere castle( better known as Downton Abbey of course)
