We should have been asked if either of us would have difficulty in climbing stairs and walking long distances to our room. We should have been told that the fixed radiator did not work and that the second, portable type, was in the room for that reason. The window in the room needed to be draught proofed. We were there on a very cold night.

Enjoyed being able to find the inn with no problem. Was close enough to my family and amenities to make the stay comfortable and hassle free. The meal in the morning was good and the staff caring and helpful,

Well situated for cycling along the Kennet and Avon Canal.
Well situated for cycling along the Kennet and Avon Canal. Good rail links both west and east. Attractive countryside away from the A4, e.g. back roads to Hungerford which we cycled. Newbury Centre very pretty. Best approached by bike rather than taking car into the town.

Overall a likable hotel in a great location.
Overall a likable hotel in a great location. I thought the grounds back of house were a little scruffy and untidy and I banged my car on the crash barriers around a shed when I reversed (Couldn't see them in my mirror).
Good friendly staff and manager.

We stayed at the Berkshire Arms for reading festival weekend … we are not campers the hotel was away from reading enough maybe 25 minute drive , our hotel room had a huge comfy bed which after walking and dance round the festival all day was amazing to come back to , and seriously the best shower, hot and powerful ! The staff were all lovely, smilie and helpful at all times .
Hotel staff were absolutely fine. What really let them place down was the refusal of their delivery driver to move his Van in the morning to allow guests out of the car park to get work. Even after getting one of the draft members to ask him to 3 metres to allow exit. Then deliberately slowing his movements and mocking once he had eventually finished. Absolutely disgusting!!
The hotel room itself was beautiful, the bed comfy and everything was spotlessly clean. The tea/coffee/biscuits that were in the room were a lovely quality as well. The staff were so friendly and welcoming and genuinely couldn’t do enough! The breakfast was so lovely and a generous portion with lots of little extras.
Everything was fantastic! The staff are all so chatty and friendly, the room was better than an average hotel, comfy and modern. Comfy bed and really nice ensuite. We had lunch in the pub and it was great, and the patio area was large and pleasant. Breakfast was amazing too.
A warm welcome was received from all the staff for our group. We were well looked after at our evening meal and breakfast. The hotel was clean and had everything that we needed for our overnight stay. Twin rooms had two proper beds, which was great for our group.
It was convenient for the event we were attending. The hotel was clean, well maintained and pleasantly styled. We sat outside for dinner and there was lots of seating and the area was made attractive. The staff were friendly and helpful.
This hotel is long overdue a refurbishment, bathrooms have lots of tile mould, floors and carpets dirty, hallway smells of mould, way overpriced for what is a poor roadside motel.
Bedroom doors are not very secure.
Friendly Team delivering great service to guests, particularly the Italian restaurant and bar manager for whom no request was too much - I apologise I did not get her name, but a great asset to the hotel.
Rooms are clean, but the annex is dated (former Premier Inn/Lodge) so needs a face-lift.
Staff were helpful at breakfast but bar staff lacked wine knowledge of their own list.
