Newbury Sandham Memorial Chapel Hotels

"Only issue would be breakfast stops at 9 am "

"Unfortunately we solely chose this hotel to enjoy the pool for our son’s first swim. We have a 2 month old and a 2 year old. Having previously stayed at the Grand in Eastbourne the pool temperature had been brilliant for young children and imagined this would be similar. When we got in the pool it felt very cool, I asked the staff member if the temp could be turned up and we were informed the boiler was broken. It was too cold for our 2 month old to safely enjoy. The next morning we returned with our 2 year old for a swim in a thermal swim outfit so she could stay in longer but the pool was even colder! Despite essentially having a wetsuit on she didn’t last long on the pool and we had to leave. It was really disappointing we weren’t notified of this in advance as we simply would not have spent the money on this stay without being able to use the pool. It was an early Mother’s Day treat for me and it was ruined a bit by this and the poor service we received at dinner (feedback sent separately). We had expected a lot more…"

"Great reception staff, nice room, handy for the railway station. "

"Nice spa, nice renovations, shame the steam room wasn't working. The mens showers were cold. But other than that this was a nice hotel experience. The bedroom was a little small but well kept. The bar area and restaurant was well appointed and you can see nice refurbishment work had happened. The breakfast was excellent and worth the money. The location was quite good to access town with a short walk."

"The privacy setting for the shower screen didn't work, but at least the window opened to help cool the room down. Comfy enough bed and friendly staff."

"Lovely over night stay. Nice breakfast, nice pool, nice staff and decent price. No complaints here "

"A little out of the way from the city centre, but that can be resolved via a short cab ride. Excellent customer service and amazing rooms make up for it and there is plenty of parking. Definitely stay here again and would highly recommend the Voco Reading by IHG. "

"Very pleased with the hotel, shame they charged guests to park while staying at the hotel. I believe this should be free for hotel stayers. Apart from that hotel was pleasant enough and staff were friendly "
