We booked this hotel with trepidation after reading the various reviews... But we were going to the theatre in Sonning as a treat for ourselves and two friends and did not want to drive home that night. The situation of the hotel is stunning. The receptionist was friendly and welcoming, offering us a complimentary newspaper in the morning. Our room... more

I stayed at the Great House for my brother's wedding. Stayed in the original building in room no. 14. Was woken by a loud scream on the morning of the wedding as my room mate found 2 wasps in her bed. As this was at 6am, we decided to wait until 8 to alert reception. However in between that time,... more

I stayed at The Great House for 4 days while in the UK on business. It was my first trip over and I was absolutely delighted. The staff at the hotel were incredibly accommodating. I was there during a heat wave and, on the day I arrived, I had a delightful lunch with a specially made, refreshing beverage. They found... more

My husband and I stayed at The Great House at Sonning for one night. We were delighted to be upgraded to a suite but unfortunately our delight was short lived! The evening was extremely cold (4C) but we were assured there would be heating in the room. On returning from our evening out we were dismayed to enter a freezing... more

We booked the Great House for a celebration of my husbands retirement and birthday combined. What a disappointment it was. We counted 10 things wrong with the room (No 41) and found out that the hotel does not have a resident maintenance man on site. When we complained they deducted money from our bill.On our return home I wrote a... more

We booked a night here to celebrate our wedding anniversary - it looked so inviting on the website and we know Sonning village is lovely. Reception was manned by one person who was on the phone so rather a wait! We were not asked if we wanted a table for dinner. Our room was up two narrow flights of stairs... more

The website made this place look like a mansion. In fact, it's a glorified pub. The room was OK but not as grand and I thought it would be, the bathroom was very nice and new. My room was a bit noisy during the day and into the evening because it faced the street. Breakfast was excellent (full English plus... more

Stayed here for one night on business. Needed a last minute hotel, and didn't have time to research on Trip Advisor (lesson learned...). Staff were friendly and helpful, but the standard of maintenance was not very high. In my room (16) the window latch was broken so there was no way of locking it - which was a bit worrying,... more

We were surprised at the ease of booking a sunday night room so easily in the middle of july. We discovered why. The building work in the car park was the first clue. The lack of anything other than a very basic bar snack in the evening was offered. The rooms were clean and reasonably well cleaned but we were... more
