We had a quick stopover (just one night) at the Bear this summer, room was very small but pleasant enough. Stayed in the stable block of rooms rather than the main hotel which backs onto the bar area. Very clean room, free parking, comfy bed, wide choice of food for breakfast and window over looking a steam with ducks swimming... more

Myself and my wife of 17 years decided upon visiting relatives and they had in actual fact recommended the bear mainly because of the excellent food and service. What we did get was indeed excellent food on both nights but the service was dismal. We raised our concerns on the weekend Saturday morning with the front reception and the young... more

On reading other reviews I was starting to worry that we had made the wrong choice. BUT, I had no reason to worry whatsoever. The staff couldn't have been more helpful and that's from the Reception through to the Bar. We were also upgraded to a suite which was as the front of the building (on the main road but... more

We decided to stay at the Bear due to proximity to friends and the reviews they gave it. To be fair the main part of the hotel looked like the perfect place to house your wedding party, with a bar that has an extended opening and many of the rooms set away from the main building. We were in an... more

Stayed in Room 4 (family room) - it is huge and 2 large very comfortable beds. Very well presented and nice bathroom (no bath but nice shower). Perfect for our family of 4 with 2 small kids. Breakfast was included in tarriff and was excellent. The setting of the restaurant is lovely. Miserable staff though serving in restaurant (actually only... more

Found the hotel by putting in "Romantic Nights Away", and have to say we were not disappointed. From the moment I called them to make the booking to when we left this morning, they are nothing other than helpful and kind. We had room 9 which looks onto the road, thought it maybe noisy, but the road is very quiet... more

I stay away on average twice a week as i am a regional manager for an electronics company covering the whole M4 as well as South Wales and the South West. I have never written a review before but I was so staggered by what this hotel is offering that I felt compelled to warn other businessmen. The price was... more

One of the great attractions of Hungerford is the beauty of its location, just an hour’s drive west of London and well placed for country pursuits, retail therapy and a true sense of ‘Englishness’ in the surrounding villages that are dotted with discreet wealth, beautiful houses, monied racing stables and country walks en route to a thatched pub or two.... more

We had a thoroughly enjoyable 2 night stay. Miles better than a year or 2 ago when it was a Ramada.....Staff were welcoming and responsive to our needs. Our room was recently refurbished to an excellent standard with lovely LCD TV and other mod cons -it was slightly noisy being close to a main road, but not to the extent... more
