Don`t over look this hidden gem, the owners have got it right here and could easily charge more.The Pictured thatch Pub is the owners property, but reception and breakfast are located here. the rooms are in a two storey block (similar to camponile type rooms) just behind with car parking available at no charge, some areas do charge. Rooms were well heated and comfy, and bed was double, not king or queen, but not an issue for us, as described and expected. tea / coffee facilities and en-suite included. great for over night or short stay and offer a lot for the space and size of rooms. The offer of cooked breakfast is available and a great range of cereals toast, and fruit juices, also included in the price, was an added bonus. Ideal for couples as a place to stay or as a base close to M4 junction a mile away, food is not served except breakfast, however there are a range of food shops and several other pubs and takeaways etc a few hundred yards away. one of best overnight stops in a long while. All staff friendly and attentive, and did not force themselves on you every few minutes.

we were fine for an overnight, but some may require storage of clothes if a longer stay, but the rooms govern what they can fit in, just bear in mind car is no more than 20 yards from rooms, so could store cases etc in car. No really a gripe more an observation.

We found it easily, able to park at the property easily. The check in was quick and efficient and welcoming. The room was on the smaller side but adequate for the time we were staying, spotlessly clean and a very nice but small ensuite with soft towels. The beds (we had a twin room) were very comfortable as were the pillows. Bonus of able to open windows and leave them open as we were on an upper level. Very quiet location on the whole as it is right in the middle of what is a large village/small town. Breakfast was well catered and the lady was happy to prepare what we requested, good selection of everything and in a very pleasant dining room.

Nothing

It is good value for money and the location good with free parking. Breakfast was good. Obviously don't expect anything fancy with it was clean and simple

My only issue was the bed had a velour fabric headboard which was stained from the many people's heads resting against it I assume. I put the bath mat over the headboard to keep it away from my head. To be further the room itself was very clean, this needs replacing really as it's not hygienic

Very quiet, no banging doors at night. Breakfast was plentiful and service was quick and polite. Room was adequate as we literally needed somewhere to sleep for one night.

Room was a bit cramped had we needed to use during the day, but was adequate for us for one night. Had we been staying longer would have liked a wardrobe and a little more space.

This property was ideal for an overnight stop. Nice & clean, comfy beds, very good breakfast. Perhaps a decaf tea & coffee sachet & a few more little pots of milk on the tray would have been nice. A hairdryer would have been useful too. Otherwise no complaints!

There was nothing to dislike, just a couple of suggestions about decaf choices & a hairdryer.

Location: Easy walking distance to Theale station. Parking. Free and on site. Quiet. Great nights sleep. Value. Very good. Cleanliness. Spot on. Breakfast. Excellent. Staff. Pleasant and accommodating. It was ideal for a shortt stay where I just needed a bed for the night.

Nothing to dislike really. If you are looking for a place to take your wife for a romantic weekend, choose somewhere else. It is very functional, and does not pretend to be anything else.

Beatiful decor well suited to this amazing 15th century coaching inn ( formerly! ) & now a hotel. Black + white painted throughout with the unique thatched roof & full of character and history too! Most roons located in former stables recently rebuilt in brick and also painted black + white exterior to match the main building! interiors are comfortable with neutral decor & pastel shades and period bedding furniture desk draws hangers + tv! kettle + shaver powerpoints and with lighting over the sink 4 ease of use too! With individual electric heater ( Dimplex made in the UK too! ) and easy to use controls. So calm and quiet yet less than 1 mile from the M4 & 10-15 minutes from Reading centre.

Shower : only because of low water pressure & a small shower cubicle! But to be fair this is an amazing conversion of a 530 year old inn so to do so much so very well i cannot complain & i would definitely recommend this property to all.

Bed and pillows very comfy. Nice cooked breakfast in the morning in main 14th century building.

Bedrooms are in an old stable block at rear and are dated.. 80s style decor and furniture. Small rooms..when next refurbished it would be better to move walls for larger rooms.

The room , although basic, was very clean, tidy and had all the facilities I wanted whilst 'Mum sitting 'for a few days. Bed was very comfortable, slept very well and breakfast was very nice.. Not too far from the village centre and easy access to the M4.

Nothing really given the price asked and the location for my stay.

Nice staff. Great location within easy walking distance to Theale station. On site parking. Great value for money. Everything I needed for a one night stay.

There was nothing to "dislike". The accommodation was basic, but perfectly acceptable, and great value for money.
