Best Hotels near Newbury Racecourse, Newbury

We used this hotel as a base to go horse racing in Newbury. Our initial room did'nt have a bath,but the very helpful young man on reception moved us without fuss in no time. When settled we went for a drink in the bar.We had booked dinner for both days and were very happy with both the food and the service( Ramana and Steffan were excellent). Breakfast was also good with plenty of variety and re-stocked regularly. Well done to all concerned,we will return. As a side note, a taxi to the racecourse is between £12 and £15 each way and takes about 15 mins.

I’ve knocked one star off because, as some other guests have also mentioned, service in the bar and restaurant can be slow and it did feel like they were perhaps missing a front of house member or two. We didn’t eat other than breakfast as we didn’t fancy the menu but not a problem as there are loads of eateries in Hungerford. The room, in the annexe, was fantastic, far better than we were perhaps expecting as the price was very good. Breakfast was lovely and served speedily!! The staff we interacted with were very nice. Parking is free, and plenty of spaces. All in all a great stay and we will certainly be back.

From entering the hotel with a warm and friendly welcome from Lisa on reception, we felt relaxed straight away after a journey from Essex. Lisa checked us in even though we were early we decided to have lunch in the restaurant and wait for our room to be ready for us which was lovely and just right for our day ahead. We were then checked into our rooms and we had a lovely comfy room with plenty of light and space with a comfy bed and lovely pillows. The bathroom was a lovely size and they had an iron, hairdryer with tea and coffee making facilities, couple of mint chocolates to welcome us from the chambermaid, now this is where they went the extra mile, we were going to a Crowded House gig that evening and Lisa and Ellie between them both organised our 6 seater cab to pick us up from the hotel and to collect us from the gig knowing we would not be let down as they are a reliable cab company that they use and know well. We could all then sit and relax in the bar area having a drink and get together before we headed off for the gig. Post gig we came back in our cab and headed for the bar to mull over the fantastic gig we had just been to and celebrating my sister in laws birthday too which was lovely, the bar made was a really lovely girl and a good giggle too at that time of the night! xx We had a lovely nights sleep and got up and had breakfast in the restaurant which was plentiful and a broad selection of anything that you really wanted. I ordered poached eggs and they came out within minutes to add to my cooked breakfast and Lisa again was very cheerful and very accommodating to our every need and always with a smile too. We checked out with Murvin the new hotel manager who again was a pleasure to check out with and looked after us all. Thank you once again for a lovely and the most friendliest and helpful hotel I have been to in a long time and we do stay at a lot of hotels. Cheers Guys! Brian and Michele Millar xx

Amazing room. Great decor, well maintained, spotless, the best shower and very nice toiletries. Some treats for us and our dog provided. Dogs so welcome and nice place for our dog to meet other dogs. Great service. Peaceful walks along footpaths next to fields which were memorable. Great bar and dinner. We are planning to return!
