Have just returned from this beautiful hotel. We booked an executive room as it was a special occasion and were not disappointed. The room was very big and had every facility we could have asked for. We also visited The Mill at Sonning which is just a stroll away-just as well with the snow! Breakfast was very tasty and the... More

The room we were assigned was massive and pleasantly decorated. It was spotlessly clean but lacked any character, which was a shame. Breakfast was very good and the evening meal was well presented and very tasty - couldn't fault it.. I can't see how the other reviews slated the food - our experience was excellent. The bar area is like... More

A poor experience - anonymous room with furniture that appeared to have shrunk, so it no longer filled the space; two near empty pillows; blankets not duvets; early morning grass cutting outside the window; a maze challenge to find breakfast, badly tuned tv. On my blacklist which is a pity as the Mill was great. More

I have had a look at some of the other reviews about this hotel and honestly cant believe them. I had a lovely stay here and the staff were very welcoming. The food was outstanding, however, a little bit pricey. Rooms are clean and comfortable, free wifi throughout the complex was also a added bonus that many of the large... More

The room was excellent. The receptionist on our arrival was very helpful especially as we were early. However,in the evening, when we wanted to get into the hotel to go to the bar at 9:30pm the door was locked. Eventually we were allowed in by a surly young man who seemed reluctant to serve us drinks. On our departure the... More

Stayed at the Sonning on Sunday night following a family get together at the hotel for lunch. Staff were unattentive at lunch and at times were downright abrupt to members of my family. Food was no better than average, dessert being a defrosted bought in cheesecake which was soggy. No meals available at the hotel on a Sunday evening so... More

Decent enough hotel in a lovely village. The rooms are pretty standard (if not in the main building, get one in the new out house and NOT in the old one) and offer good value for money. Great area for some after dinner walks. Full english breakfast ok but not special, did not take the plunge to have dinner there. More
