the exterior of the bedroom block looked a bit grim but once inside no complaints

we had Dinner in the evening good menu and food was fine, the staff polite and professional ,breakfast was 100% so completely satisfied

We found one bath towel only. There is no bedside table on one side because the be was huge. The decor is a bit tired . The corridor to the breakfast room has alcoves with no art work to add interest. The breakfast room was uninviting.

Spacious quiet room, with bath.

The bedrooms are all in a dreary block away from the main building. There was a giant bogie on the bedroom wall.

Loved the pool and the spa pool. Main building is lovely and we enjoyed drinks from the bar outside in the sunshine. We liked that there's a library!

There were a few areas of the hotel that looked like they needed some TLC. Cobwebs above the bar area. Big patches hole in the ceiling also there. The outside of the 70’s style building, could do with painting to smarten it up. Breakfast, though nice choice of dishes, would have liked individual yogurts, rather than a bowl of. The scrambled eggs were a very dark yellow, which looked odd but maybe there local eggs? Dinner was great but the focaccia was extremely salty and over baked.

Liked the location, as very close for the event we were going to Steventon Hall. The look of the hotel both exterior and interior is very impressive with lots of green space outside. Lovely amount of rooms available downstairs to meet fellow guests. The decor and the comfort of the furniture was great and liked the many outside areas we could use with tables and seating. The bedrooms themselves were a good size with comfortable bed, and nice that you can open the windows.

The outside of the main room blocks is grey concrete, and looks like an ex east german prison block. Breakfast was disappointing: no black pudding, stewed tomatoes, and on our visit no coffee machine working at all.

The main hotel is impressive and decorated with taste. There are many areas in which you can relax, read or have a drink. The pool and fitness room are lovely, as are the grounds and gardens. Best of all are the staff; helpful, friendly and professional.

We were in the rear block, I think it was called the garden wing. From the outside it looks a bit tatty, considering the rest of the hotel was a attractive country house, it looked abit out of place. However it was better once inside and it is clean and tidy and was like most decent hotels. The only real let down for us was the restaurant. We were a party of 10 and we asked about booking a table for us which we did and it was suggested that we pre ordered just to help the kitchen out as it was ment to be a busy night. Our table was booked for 8pm, we pre ordered at 7:40-7:45. We sat down to our table at 8 but we didn't get out food until 8:45. The restaurant was not really very busy either! The food was very nice but I'd say abit more on the plate or a side could be included to make the value for money worth it. This wouldn't put us off staying here again as it was what we wanted for the occasion and the hotel rooms are excellent value for money.

The staff were very friendly and welcoming. Rooms are very clean and well presented. Beds are very comfortable. We used the pool and again, very clean and well presented. A shame the hot tub was out of order but steam room and sauna made up for it.

Looked unloved in the outside areas

Easy to find , staff friendly and helpful. Food fair only and the property outside of the rooms need serious maintenance and care.

The room was a little noisy as we were right by the main entrance to the block which made our dog bark with the door banging shut with people coming and going all hours of the night.

We took our dog, plenty of space for a run around in the grounds, bowls, dog bed, treats and poo bags in the room. Food was lovely and priced wel.

Didn’t get a clear notification from Dog friendly Hotels that we had to pay extra. And we found the evening meal a bit poor to be honest.

Lovely facilities, use of pool, bar and restaurant etc! Our room Was also fab.

Not the best breakfasts

It's location

The building where we stayed needs a revamp the ceiling on the second floor needs repairing as it looks like it a going to collapse

I liked the facilities and location, and the grounds were very beautiful! The room was lovely and modern.

Was put in the older more run down section of the property, likely because I was travelling solo for one night. I noticed Ants in both the rooms bathroom, and again in the restaurant at breakfast near the sugar/coffee machine. Not something I’m particularly bothered about but worth mentioning so the hotel is aware.

Location for Science Park visit. Building was nice.

Very noisy with banging throughout all the time we were in our room. Slightly on the chilly side but no heater available. The room was dark as was the decoration throughout the hotel. Food very expensive.

Bed was huge and very comfortable. Breakfast very substantial and good variety. Beautiful swimming pool. .

Stayed in June 2024

Unfortunately the sauna wasn't working and the lockers still don't work, so nowhere to put your belongings safe while you are in the pool.

Our second stay here this year, comfy bed, nice room, breakfast is epic!

The Garden rooms building exterior was in poor con condition. Very off putting. Although the rooms were decent inside. They need to attend to the exterior and charge £10 more

Breakfast was good. Better hot freshly made coffee not machine vended coffee would be nice

The staff were very helpful. The leisure pool and sauna/steam room were very pleasant. The food was good value for money.

We stayed in the garden rooms, the building on the outside didn't give a good impression. Needs painting.

The bedroom was lovely & clean & the bed very comfortable. Breakfast was very enjoyable.

Wi-Fi intermittent at best. Ventilation/heating control - open/close window (desk fan available in cupboard if required). Breakfast room can be noisy; quiet area not available when guest numbers are low.

Room furniture and decor were up-to-date and comfortable. Small, but pleasant, en-suite.

Sadly the entire lighting was on the same circuit, so you couldn't have the more cosy side lamps on without having the overhead main lights on and no way to separate the two.

Always a warm welcome and a lovely location. Comfy beds, cosy room and very tidy.
