Wokingham Trip

Great location lovely friendly helpful staff. Room clean with tea facilities. I would call the hotel shabby chic. Staff member Sarah was so very friendly and very helpful.

The room was a highlight, intelligently designed, well laid out, and genuinely comfortable from a usability perspective. Everything was exactly where you would expect it to be. Unfortunately, the bed undermined the entire experience. The mattress was notably uncomfortable, and the frame creaked with even minor movement. For a stay built around rest, that is not a small detail. Service was efficient but impersonal. Both the front desk and café staff handled tasks competently, but with little warmth or engagement. At checkout, there was no enquiry about the stay, which reinforced the overall impression that guests are processed rather than welcomed. I paid £40 for a late checkout until 2pm, which appeared not to have been communicated to housekeeping, as they entered the room while I was changing. An avoidable and unwelcome interruption. Overall, while the room design reflects clear thought and investment, the broader experience does not match that standard. It is a well-designed product let down by execution. I would not return, which is disappointing given how strong the fundamentals are.

Amazing experience! Staff goes above and beyond to accommodate guest!

Very good selection.

Beautiful room, not too small, and most of all quiet in this busy area with great light from a room not facing the street. Terrific location for a calling and nearby tube and train stations.
