Stayed
here
over
3
nights
with
7
people
across
3
rooms
as
we
needed
to
be
near
King
George
Hospital
and
were
unfamiliar
with
the
area
(coming
from
Australia).
My
wife
and
I
then
stayed
on
for
another
2
nights
before
the
entire
group
found
better
value
accommodation
closer
to
KGH
as
we
needed
to
stay
quite
a
while
to
deal
with
a
family
issue.
As
an
IHG
member,
I
booked
directly
3
standard
rooms
expecting
a
double
bed
in
each.
Arriving
on
a
Friday
evening,
we
got
a
somewhat
annoyed
reception
manager
who
simply
said
"my
system
says
3
twin
rooms".
Despite
clearly
seeing
so
many
of
us,
he
proceeded
to
only
provide
1
key
card
per
room.
4
of
us
from
AU
and
3
from
Malaysia
after
a
sudden
death
in
our
family
and
hopping
on
the
next
available
flight,
we
were
in
no
mood
for
an
argument
after
30+
hours
of
travel
though
honestly,
could
have
done
with
some
empathy.
In
defence
of
the
staff,
all
other
staff
throughout
our
stay
were
very
friendly
and
professional.
Rooms
were
a
good
size
and
a
quick
walk
from
Newbury
park
and
supermarkets
/
24
hour
McDonalds.
They
were
kept
daily
without
issues.
Beds
were
split
and
pretty
uncomfortable
beyond
1
night
but
given
I
stayed
in
3
hotels
all
in
this
price
range,
it
seems
to
be
the
norm
for
this
money.
Daily
breakfast
was
a
good
spread
with
sufficient
variety
though
no
changes.
Kitchen
staff
were
particularly
friendly
and
accommodating
which
was
very
welcomed.
There
is
also
a
large
lobby
area
if
you
need
to
congregate
in
groups.
Overall,
not
a
bad
choice
if
you
get
their
lower
pricing
which
generally
needs
1
week
in
advance.
We
found
significant
variation
in
their
pricing,
from
60
pounds
to
90+.
At
60
pounds,
a
good
choice.
At
90+
there
is
much
better
value
elsewhere
if
you
don't
need
to
be
in
this
specific
area.
Had
I
known
what
I
know
now,
although
this
one
one
of
the
few
'branded'
hotels
in
the
area,
it
doesn't
quite
have
the
hotel
chain
feel.
Therefore,
I'd
go
to
one
of
the
boutique
hotels
that
offer
more
for
less
instead
and
in
my
case,
where
much
closer
to
KGH.
