Royal Berkshire

We stayed at the Royal Berkshire for one night in May having booked through secret escapes. Because the weather wasnt great we didnt spend any time in the grounds. We had a Cool Room which was very pleasant with a comfy bed and a good shower. We ate in the main restaurant off a Secret Escapes menu. The food was fine, but there wasnt much atmosphere in the hotel as there were so few people staying. The breakfast was just about OK, buffet style, not much choice of hot food. It was clear to see that the hot food had been sitting there for a while, and the scrambled eggs look very unappealing. Coffee, on the other hand was stewed. Would I stay there again? Not sure.

I stayed here for 10 days as part of a work programme. The hotel was clean and my room was spacious, the hotel grounds were immaculate and the coffee lounge was always stocked with drinks and sweets, not to mention the various other snacks. The food in the restaurant was good too. The only negatives were the noise from the wedding functions that take place here and the lack of lifts, which makes lifting heavy bags to the upper floors inconvenient. I would stay again.

From the lovely sunshine to a long Virginia water walk… we did a spontaneous stop at the Royal Berkshire hotel with no reservation to celebrate our milestone… and I could see a wedding event happening….I must say, it was a wonderful service by the F&B team! There was no delays, the staff were wonderful, from the bar staff to the waiters serving… we had a wonderful time like always! This hotel never fails to deliver the best service! There was wedding, so there was loads of music going on, and we were Vibing to the music too! & we told the staff that we were celebrating our milestone…. They gave us a complimentary dessert! It was splendid! I would definitely come back again! Thank you to the lovely team in Royal Berkshire hotel! Always a pleasure coming there!

My husband and I stayed at The Berkshire overnight for our wedding anniversary. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted warmly with a smile by the helpful staff, who couldn't do enough for us! The evening meal and breakfast were delicious, and our suite was very comfortable and well equipped. The grounds are magnificent. We had a wonderful stay, and have no hesitation in recommending this venue strongly. We're looking forward to returning.

A comfy stay in their smallest 'shoebox' room. Showers are brilliant. The room we stayed in is up a number of steep steps, no problem for us although I feel it's worth mentioning before booking. Drinks VERY expensive. Didn't eat and so can't comment. Very good value for money (room only) Thankyou

The hotel is beautiful We had a wonderful stay I booked it with Secret Escape So we had a cool room Cream tea and a glass of presecco each We got there early so the reception was kind enough to arrange the cream tea first as the room was not ready. The cream tea was amazing The room was good But the next day at breakfast if you are a vegetarian then there is no hot breakfast there I asked for toast and they came cold and very dry The pastry was very dry too So I was very disappointed with the breakfast Which is a shame

Enjoyed a lovely stay over a weekend here; the rooms are large, I had a wonderful garden view, the grounds are very pleasant to spend time in, the staff are without exception friendly and helpful, the bar is a relaxing place to unwind, breakfast is generous with plenty of choices and the hotel itself is in a quiet and peaceful location (minor intermittent traffic noise for some rooms in the East Wing). The only faults I found were that the bathtub was lethally slippery (but non-slip bathmats are provided to help with that) and my room only had an overhead drench shower - no moveable or detachable showerhead, so if you wanted to shower without getting your hair wet it was a game of contortions. That oversight aside, I would happily stay again and bring my dogs next time.

We have just returned from a fabulous stay at the Royal Berkshire. All the staff were professional, friendly and helpful and made us feel very welcome. We had a 'cool' room in the east wing which was clean, spacious and had everything we needed. Our room had a garden view and we enjoyed strolling around the beautiful meticulously kept grounds, as well as spending time sitting beside the pond and fountains. We booked a dinner, bed and breakfast package which we felt was good value. The food at dinner was excellent and well presented. Breakfast was buffet style and was sufficient but not exceptional. We would have liked a wider range of hot food as well as having some bread available. The hotel is well located and easily reached from the M25. Windsor Great Park is close by with nice gardens and miles of footpaths. We were even lucky enough to see a polo match. Overall we had a very enjoyable stay at the Royal Berkshire. The fabulous weather was an added bonus! We hope to return soon.

We had a lovely one night stay with family and can honestly say that apart from the weather we couldn’t fault anything. The staff were helpful and friendly the rooms were well appointed modern with a large comfy bed ,pillows and bedding , the food at Fork was delicious and the service very good. It was unfortunate that it rained continuously for our stay and we were unable to explore the grounds which looked lovely and well kept. We will have to try and visit during the summer months so we can enjoy a drink out on the terrace in the sun and checkout the grounds. We will also check next time to ensure we are not there at the same time as any weddings as it can get noisy in the bar and not conducive to an after dinner drink and chat , having said that we just retreated back into the restaurant with our drinks and shut the door , they were clearly all having a great time as they should do on their special day.
