Top The Living Rainforest Hotel Reviews

Regency Park Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Well located, clean and tidy with good health club"

The Swan at Streatley

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing location , amazing food , staff and room just perfect weekend would have stayed longer Just ticked every box Many thanks lee"

Ye Olde Red Lion

10/10 Excellent

"I had a lovely overnight stay. The room was excellent. It was like a row of cottages just outside the main pub. It was large and comfortable and I slept very well. I had a lovely meal in the pub on the Saturday evening. Even though the pub was busy, when I went back to my room, there was little noise. The following morning I had a lovely full English breakfast (see photo), which was included in the price, before setting off for a stable visit in nearby Lambourn. They are having building work carried out, so not sure how noisy it would be during the week. But there's a nice little section in the bar, detailing their plans. Should look great when it's finished."

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."
