4/4 found this review helpful

I was forced into staying here after my normal first choice for my weekly stay in Surrey was fully booked, as this was the next choice on the companies travel agents list. I stayed one night in a standard room, and I must say it is a very impressive looking hotel as you arrive; a sweeping drive up to a very modern looking entrance to the old building. The reception area was light and airy, although it was quite annoying to discover only one person on reception at what is traditionally a busy time for checking in at "business" hotels (4pm to 6pm), and I did have a bit of a queue to be able to check in and get my keycard, but I must say the check in process was relatively painless.

I stayed in a room on the second floor, and I must say the room is small, especially for the cost of the stay. Whilst the bed was very comfortable, and the desk was well sized for working on a laptop with one or two sheets of A4 alongside, the room could not have sustained anything else without being particularly cramped. It was a good job the TV was a wall mounted flat panel is all I can say!

The rooms are all equipped with high speed internet access, although be warned to take your own network lead (RJ45) as although you can borrow one from the reception desk it requires a £10 deposit. Whilst I have no doubt that it is a high speed connection, it does appear quite slow, even compared to my relatively sedate 4MB connection at home.

The evening meal was included in my price, and I found the service to be even more sedate than the internet connection. I spent 2 hours there for what was a three course meal. And with regards to the price of the food, I ended up paying nearly £20 for fish and chips with some vegetables on the side. That said, the complimentary buffet breakfast was well prepared and delicious.

“Fantastic Break”

Savill Court Hotel

28 Oct 2007
2/2 found this review helpful

I checked this site after booking my break at Savill Court, and read some pretty damning reviews, but I decided that people do like to complain, and not many praise. I am glad I took the rest of the reviews on this site with a pinch of salt. My wife and I have just returned from a 2-night break at Savill Court and we have had a fantastic time. We stayed in Room 105, which is next to Room 107, and there was some noise occasionally, but I cannot see how it could be from fridge generators, as the kitchens were nowhere near these rooms. It seemed to me to be the extractors they fit in the en-suite bathrooms, as they have no windows. They ran for about 30-seconds at a time, so wasn't really any inconvenience at all. Room 105 was splendid. I have read people on this site slating the size of the rooms, but we had plenty of room. This room was in the original part of the hotel, not the new extension, so had the most magnificent stone framed windows. The room was spotless, as was the en-suite. The spa was great, with a good size swimming pool, jacuzzi, sauna, etc. We ate in the Library Restaurant on Saturday night, and the service and the food was exemplary. All the dealings we had with the staff was positive, yes most of them are foreign, but they were all extremely helpful. The hotel and it's surroundings are also fantastic. So all in all we had a great break. Would we stay there again - definitely. Would we recommend it to friends - no hesitation. Why then have I only given it a rating of 4 out of 5, well there is always room for improvement!

“Room with a view????”

Savill Court Hotel

18 Jul 2007
2/2 found this review helpful

I am actually staying in this hotel as I type! Like other reviewers I was very impressed by the beautiful location and grounds. The hotel is near to Windsor and in a quiet location (until the next flight from Heathrow passes overhead)

Quick check in - but I am slightly worried that when I was given my check-in form to complete the form displayed an address, e-mail and telephone number that weren't mine (ok so I have a common name but they never asked before handing it to me).

The lift was broken so I had to carry my bag up two flights of stairs up into the to the second floor. After eventually finding my room in the maze of corridors I was greeted by the ONLY hotel room I have ever stayed in which is SMALLER than my bedroom at home. Nicely decorated but very hot and worst of all no view. When I say no view I really mean NO VIEW!

There are two "A3" sized frosted windows at about 5 1/2 feet from the floor. On opening these to let in some air and see if I could catch a glimpse of sky I found the only thing I could see is the wrinkled roof insulation and chicken wire.

There is a fan which is so loud it is akin to a 747 engine. The shower squirts water at odd angles (my room booking specified bath) and I don't know how someone on the larger side could possibly manage to use it - it is tiny!

I ordered room service last night at 20:30. I was a bit worried when the lady taking my order asked what dressing I wanted on my Caesar salad. I pointed out that it normally came with the same type - Caesar???? At 21:30 I rang up to ask where it was - this is after I had already had a phone call to confirm my order (surely one caeser salad with chicken is not too difficult to write down). Food came at 21:45. Dried up chicken on a half decent salad. Not really worth the money.

I won't be coming here again and I will tell my colleagues who are booked in for tomorrow to change their booking.

“Worst hotel I've ever stayed in!”

Savill Court Hotel

1/1 found this review helpful

I recently booked 2 nights at this allegedly 4 star hotel in the Macdonald hotel chain, on the way back from business travel in europe to wind down and relax before returning to work.
Myself and my girlfriend arrived late, all we wanted to do was crash out. We were checked in OK, given no information. Our room was on the top floor and the lifts were out of order, no porter help was offered so we struggled upstairs.
The room looked very good on appearance, but was extremely hot so we opened the windows to discover a wedding party going on downstairs with smokers/drinkers outside being very noisy. As we were very tired we just went to bed only to be awoken at 01:00 for a fire alarm. The evacuation was chaos, no sweep/role call was done, people did not assemble in the correct area, people congregated at the lobby (not great if building is on fire). The manager was a mess, telling people it was prob a false alarm which resulted in people sneaking back in. Lots of people still inside due to no building check. It was a false alarm in the end, luckily!
2nd night, another wedding reception, even more noisy. This time at 01:30 there is a power cut which triggers emergency lights to come on in every room and wake up half the hotel.

I believe this hotel has recently been renovated but appears superficially to be 4 star but underneath the surface is really 2/3 star. Room looked great but shower awful, water flow cutting off intermittently, no information given out by reception on leisure facilities, breakfast chaos - staff struggling to speak english.

It felt like the wedding guests had all the staffs attention to the deteriment of other guests.
I would not stay here again, and this hotel is shockingly overpriced for the service that you get.

“Good Hotel”

Savill Court Hotel

6 Jun 2007
1/3 found this review helpful

This hotel has been recently renovated so it may be different than what you remember or have read. The rooms are nice but small for American standards and there was no air conditioning, but you could open the large windows (if on an outside facing room). The location is very near Windsor. The train station is about 10 minutes drive, so you do need a car if you are staying here or depend on a taxi. There is a pool and workout facility which is also very nice but only open from 7AM-8PM, not ideal if you want to workout very early or late. Bathrooms are small, but I just chalk that up to the English charm. Definitely stay here if you want to get a taste of the UK lifestyle, if not than stay at the Marriott.
