Hotels Near The Watermill Theatre in Newbury

Had a lovely lunch at Donnington Valley Hotel on 14th May. Can highly recommend the Burrata, Plum Tomato Salad, Basil, Breads sharing starter The roast beef was lovely (although my husbands was very fatty, but I think that’s just the luck of the drawer with how the meat is served) there were plenty of fresh seasonal vegetables, that came in a separate bowl and steaming hot which was great. Dessert was amazing, highly recommend the Lemon Tart and raspberry sorbet, it was delicious. Waiting staff were super attentive. Thank you very much.

The twin bed room was spacious & far exceeded my expectations. The beds were clean & comfy, extra pillows were provided. Tea making facilities were available which was a bonus. A functioning tv was present. The bathroom & the carpet could have been a little cleaner. The toilet in the outside corridor was out of order during our stay - I was going to use it upon arrival before I got to my room. Wi-fi is charged at £3 per day. - it works fine. I had trouble with the key fob to open the door to reception. Sanjay on reception was lovely, friendly & accommodating, he even went out of his way to be helpful. We had a nice pit stop I’d highly recommend! Some numpties above were doing some banging before I nodded off but it happens! There were plenty of free parking spaces outside too! - remember to enter your reg on the screen at reception!

In the heart of Hungerford it was a pleasure to stay at The Three Swans. The staff team were so friendly and helpful. The food from their chefs excellent and reasonably priced. The accommodation very comfortable. Plenty of plug sockets, comfortable bed. Only one very minor suggestions. A light over the dressing table would be helpful. The outdoor space is next to the annex rooms and was a bit noisy until around 11.30pm. Parking is also limited to pay annd display anlthough plenty of on street parking free from 6pm until 8 am. Overall a very pleasant stay.

4 of us stayed here for one night as we were at a local festival. We arrived and one of the rooms wasn’t ready. We put all of our bags in one room. Although the room was clean and spacious it smelt of damp towels. We went to the reception and asked if they could call us a cab. Was told they were too busy and we would have to do it ourselves. (Even though there was nobody there at the time). The lady on reception the next morning was much friendlier and asked about our evening. Breakfast included in the price was lovely and one of the best breakfasts I’ve eaten at a hotel before. Quite expensive I thought for 1 night.

Stopped by the Coppa Club bar for a drink during a visit to Goring & Streatley. This used to be a regular venue when we lived close by over 20 years ago and it was great to see this place again. The hotel (and bar) is set in a beautiful location by the River Thames with indoor and outdoor seating areas with delightful views which is ideal on a warm sunny day in August! Ordering drinks was quite straightforward providing you have a smart phone. You need to scan the QR code at your table and this takes you to the online menu where you can select and pay for your drinks. The service was efficient with very little waiting time and staff are friendly and from what I could see were polite with customers. Should also mention that prices are reasonable bearing in mind the type of establishment and location. Overall we enjoyed our visit and would certainly recommend visiting and we will certainly be back again in the future.

Wasn't impressed to receive text whilst abroad to say if we checked in late our room could be let. We were flying back and couldn't guarantee getting there at 3 pm. Had to get family member to call to explain. There are 2 Travelodges, one each side of the motorway. We booked the westbound one. Both have the same postcode. Our satnav only recognised Eastbound side. Result was they couldn't find our reservation. Apparently this happens a lot. Staff redirected us so only a few minutes and a few miles delay. Our arrival delayed by difficulty at Heathrow,ie Terminal change and over an hour and a half hours delay before passengers could access luggage reclaim. Staff shortages. Arrived at nearly midnight. Only Costa open at services. However, staff at hotel helpful. Situation good and quiet despite proximity to M4. We were very pleasantly surprised. Room clean and plenty of space, bed comfortable, coffee-making facility welcome. Bathroom fine and water hot. Slept really well and plenty of choice for breakfast with services placed only a few yards away but not causing any noise problem at the hotel. Enjoyable stay. Pity about postcode confusion Maybe explanation to take westbound services turnoff given on website when booking would avoid confusion and save people being taken to the eastbound site. We were worried when satnav told us to pass westbound services but assumed hotel was approached by another turnoff shortly after. It would have made our arrival far less fraught to have been aware of the fact there were Travelodges BOTH sides of motorway. The hotel itself was good and gave us a comfortable night.
