This is the sort of place which makes you realise why the English are famous for' puting up with things and not complaining. Do not be swayed by the pictures on the website, from the minute you walk into the lobby you can tell you are dealing with a low quality establishment, stuck in a 1980's timewarp.The place has about... more

I booked this hotel with Late Rooms and paid £59 for a standard double for sole occupancy including breakfast. This is less than half the rate quoted online direct with the hotel.

Was woken by a loud scream on the morning of the wedding as my room mate found 2 wasps in her bed. As this was at 6am, we decided to wait until 8 to alert reception. However in between that time,... more

I stayed at The Great House for 4 days while in the UK on business. It was my first trip over and I was absolutely delighted. The staff at the hotel were incredibly accommodating. I was there during a heat wave and, on the day I arrived, I had a delightful lunch with a specially made, refreshing beverage. They found... more

My husband and I stayed at The Great House at Sonning for one night. We were delighted to be upgraded to a suite but unfortunately our delight was short lived! The evening was extremely cold (4C) but we were assured there would be heating in the room. On returning from our evening out we were dismayed to enter a freezing... more
