Top The Living Rainforest Hotel Reviews

ORIDA Hotels Newbury

10/10 Excellent

"Very good as normal I have already done a review a couple times with in the last 2 months as my colleagues have stayed with you a couple of times that both have really enjoyed Thank you ☺️"

YHA Streatley - Hostel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were very helpful and lovely, me and my friends stayed here for reading festival and they were very supportive in accommodating us. The self cater kitchen is lovely and includes everything you would need, the lounge is a nice quiet area to relax and the rooms were decent for a youth hostel with clean bedsheets and bunkbeds! The area itself is lovely and quaint we were very happy to stay here especially since the train was only a 20 minute walk away."

The Crown & Horns

8/10 Good

"At some point I’m pretty sure this place was top notch. Signs of wear and tear very evident in the room and the wider accommodation area. There has to be a caveat that this is a very old building so in and of itself that’s a considerable challenge . There are some things which just need small attention but do add up in a 4* room. Pluses, fruit and water / fresh milk provided in a fridge downstairs nice touch. Wrapped fresh cookie also a nice touch along with good toiletries and quality coffee / tea selection . Close and ample parking . Sadly , the negatives. Arriving late afternoon and having skipped lunch was hopeful of some food . Menus all out on multiple tables describe a lunch menu serving til 5. Go to order, food stops at 3 … ok , but you can order at 5, with everything short of an eye roll . Silly me reading the menu. Right , comparable food equivalent in an hour but at twice the price . Gave it a miss on principle and ordered in a Burger King . Back to the room , paintwork needs attention , the handle is hanging off the dresser , the metal stud work sticking off the dresser stool and scratched my leg twice . Shower has some black mould and chipped base, I had to try and wedge the room fan upright to stop it just dropping continuously to blow on the floor . Paint flaking form walls on way up to room and banner needs repainting / staining . I think the food experience soured my view of what was and could be a very nice place. But not 4* for me at the moment ."

Country cottage with beautiful views

10/10 Excellent

"Really nice, comfortable property in a lovely quiet area with great views of the countryside all around. Nearby of village of Yattendon a great place for lunch or dinner."

"I stayed a couple nights while working away from home. A great little pub in a lovely village. I arrived Monday evening and they weren’t doing food but the chef cooked me some fish and chips anyway while he cooked some for himself. Nice touch. Thoroughly recommend"

The Bunk Inn

10/10 Excellent

Ye Olde Red Lion
