I had a very pleasant stay overall and really appreciated the comfort and service provided. The hotel was very clean, well-maintained, and clearly lives up to its rating. The room was nicely arranged, which made the experience even more enjoyable.

One small thing I did miss was having complimentary water bottles in the room, as this is something I’ve usually found helpful during my stays elsewhere.

Additionally, a slight improvement could be made in the cleanliness just outside the building. Although there is a designated smoking area, there were quite a few cigarette butts visible, which suggests that the outdoor area may need more regular cleaning. While this didn’t affect me personally, it could make a noticeable difference for other guests and families.

I didn’t include breakfast or dinner in my stay, but from what I could observe and the inviting aromas from the kitchen, it gave the impression of a high-quality dining experience, with a talented chef and a well-presented bar.

Overall, it was a great experience, and I truly appreciate the effort of the staff. With just a little attention to these minor details, the stay could be even better.

We had been told that the chef was starting at 6 on Christmas Eve and when we went down we were then told the chef wasn’t starting until 7 and we had to be elsewhere at 7. We were able to get a meal when we returned.
On Christmas Day we were told that there would be sandwiches available in the evening and there wasn’t so we had crisps and peanuts for our meal.

Staff very welcoming, but on checkin we were warned we’d experience noise as it was party night. We actually didn’t experience bad noise from the party or was the noise from the next room. Kept us awake til 4.30 am with their shouting and banging doors shouting Jill. I like to sleep when we stay in a hotel so sadly we won’t be returning.
Room was nice and comfy maybe they need to be soundproofed. Room rather hot and we had to,pen the windows to cool it down.
Breakfast was good and plenty of options very rarely get offered fried bread with cooked breakfast so that was nice to see. Sorry for the low rating.

One of my light switch was broken.
Bed was clean!

Not a good idea to put GB News on main TV, when I pointed that out to a member of staff, they didn’t realise someone in hotel changed the usual channel (non bbc). This was changed back.

Hotel location is great and easy to find with free parking in the hotel car park.
Free WiFi is a bonus.
Only negative I could find was the poorly performing coffee machine in the bar area next to the restaurant.
The cappuccino setting only gave half a cup.
It would be nice to have the option of a cup of coffee or a mug of coffee.

Easy check in and check out. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Dinner in the restaurant was really good and breakfast the following morning was equally good. We had a superior room which, although small, was clean and had everything we needed. The only minor issues we had was working out how to turn on the bedside lamps and bizarrely how to turn on the tap in the bathroom! Overall I would recommend the hotel and would also stay again if in the area.

The first time we have stayed here. Very quiet and really enjoyed our evening meal on the Saturday evening.
I did ask reception on our first day if the safe in our room could be made to work (possibly a new battery). We were never told it was still not working. Would have been nice to have been told and also had to carry all my cards, handbag etc all the time whilst having breakfast/evening meal.

Lovely room, terrible breakfast

Firstly the room was excellent. Comfortable bed, good bathroom and shower. Lots of extras in the room eg fan for hot weather, heater for cold, fridge, safe.

Staff were either brilliant or terrible, with nothing in between. Either charming with nothing too much trouble, or totally disinterested with no acknowledgement we were even there.

Breakfast was awful. Don't understand why a hotel would serve a cooked breakfast which was cold, not once but 3 days on the run. Cld food, cold plates, and when we complanied it was suggested they might warm it up, presumably in the microwave.

We would be very unlikely to stay there again.

Nice Quiet Position But Service Poor

We arrived at about 20:00 on a Saturday evening to find the room like an oven with curtains wide open. Went down to the bar for a cooling beer to find no draught beer available as the pipes were being cleaned! The bar would not accept cash but the credit card machines would not work. We were told to pay next morning. Then on Sunday morning a cleaner burst in without knocking at about 09:00.

Very disappointed.
Waited for a long time to check in as there was no one at the desk nor was there a bell to ring.
The air con didn't work as the reception was manually controlling it. When reported, they only switched it on for an hour. With 30 degrees outside, I didn't sleep much at night.
There was no sheet on the bed, only a mattress protector.
Booked a superior room to ensure all is included, but still, there was no iron or hairdryer.
Absolutely disappointed and will not be returning.

Didn’t take long to gain access but when I did room was made into a twin configuration despite requesting a double, at this point I was too tired to request a change.

Hair found on pillow which isn’t great, bathroom outdated and tiles/grout need redoing. Breakfast was ok but friendly service lacking. Overall not great

Always use the Grange when in the area. Local to Silchester where we visit. Comfortable bed and clean room. Staff friendly and keen to help (i use a walking stick). Reasonable room rate. Lovely breakfast.

No problems at all, v clean and super comfortable beds. The lady who checked us in could not have been friendlier or more efficient. Breakfast was very good, not a huge choice but everything we had was decent quality. Honestly nothing to complain about at all.

Mum's 80th Birthday Celebration

Stayed 1 night. Lovely comfortable bed and clean room. Bathroom was modern with a spacious easy to walk in shower.
All the team were friendly and helpful. They were managing a large birthday party in the main function room as well as our family meal for 11. Food was excellent. And the service was very attentive.
Hotel is quiet and has plenty of free guest parking. As with many venues, it is card only. Would definitely recommend, and use again in the future.

Nice lobby and grounds outside. Car park is decent size. No ramp for disabled people - have to climb several steps with suitcases, not suitable for wheelchair users. Rooms are a decent size, bathroom decent size. Beds not very comfy, one of our twin beds sloped sideways so you kept falling out of it. Room for extremely hot and no air conditioning which we didn’t think would be an issue in April. Over all decent but wouldn’t stay again

Bad nights stay

Not a good stay in first room as smelly, something like cigarettes. Reception staff knocked on door 5 minutes after going innthe room asking if okay, they agreed the room did have a smell and was moved.

The next room had a generator room on the other side of the wall that kept going off and was noisy, reported to reception and moved yet again to a ground floor room.

Unfortunately about 15 minutes later a generator right outside the room kicked in and thought this would be noisy throughout the night and would wake me up, i then went back to reception again and told them of the problem and wanted a room without these issues.

I was then told the only room available was the first room that had the smell and they can look at giving me another room the following day, the only good news was that i diid get a better room the next day which was okay.

Not a great experience in having to change rooms so many times in one evening, complaint raised and not resolved as the hotel seems to think it was accepted to change rooms so many times.

I won't be staying here again.

Pros: Laura on reception was helpful and friendly. Excellent parking and EV charging. The front garden is very pretty. A bus stops just up the road that goes into Newbury if you want to leave the car behind.

Cons: Freeview TV not working - either no signal or screen pixelated. No BBC channels even it it had worked. Expected to eat dinner off a coffee table in the bar after booking a table in the restaurant for dinner. The restaurant was set up for a wedding the next day so was not being used. We cancelled the booking and had a really nice meal at the Berkshire Arms just down the road. The flush on the toilet worked but was very stiff. It was not clear which way to turn on the tap on the wash basin and so I kept dowsing myself and the entire room with water! The room was very hot. The air con seemed to work on one setting only, so was too strong. Turning it down had no effect so we turned it off.

We have stayed here before but now there seems to be fewer staff (poor waitress in duty at breakfast on Sunday was rushed off her feet and there were dirty dishes left on tables, empty fruit option bowls, long waits for hot food to be refilled etc) and, generally, an air of the place just getting by. We came to attend the Battle Proms at Highclere Castle as this hotel is not far away and so we were out most of the stay but we will look for another hotel next year.

We stayed in the double room which was compact ,clean and comfortable and fine for a night or two with minimal luggage. Any longer, it would have been too cosy and any more luggage, you would not have room to store it. The staff were helpful.

Not a pleasant stay unfortunately.

Not stayed here for a few years and always used to be good. Hotel in the main was the same and a reasonable standard however, whilst the bed was freshly made, the toilet had not been cleaned at all. There were urine splashes around the rim, pubic hairs all over the rim and poo splatters on the seat and pan. There was a single pubic hair in the sink too. There was also a part biscuit wrapper on the seat that hadn’t been removed.
I complained and reception were apologetic and said they would clean it that evening while I was out. I returned at 10:15 to find the toilet was exactly the same but at least the pubic hair from the sink had gone! I insisted on a different room but by now I was so wound up I didn’t sleep well.
Breakfast in the morning was okay but the bacon had been under the heat lamp so long it was tougher than my shoe.
General management were very apologetic but for £127 per night I would’ve expected a partial refund as a minimum.
Not sure I would stay again when in the area, or use for colleagues when I book their accommodation, not a patch on what it used to be unfortunately.

Avoid unless you have no other choice.

A disturbed nights sleep as there was a function on at the hotel and guests at this function were stood outside my ground floor room partying and smoking until after 1am even though the hotel assured me my room was away from the function area. In the morning i had to sit on a low chair and table to eat my breakfast even the the dining room was set up and empty as it was reserved for the afore mentioned party none of whom had turned by the time i was finished and left. The experience was so bad I left that morning even though I had booked a second night there and lost my money on that one. The staff i dealt with didnt appear to care or offer any way to mitigate the poor service ie move room or have a room service breakfast. I have stayed here multiple times in the past and the service has steadily deteriorated over that time. Needless to stay this will be my last stay there.

Poor but staff friendly and helpful

We came to go to a family funeral and were really pleased to have our room upgraded. However the broken blind which looked mouldy, the mouse trap visible to customers behind the coffee machine at breakfast, the overpriced coffee from a machine when a proper coffee machine was turned on and just not used, did not add any further enjoyment to this.
The food was good and the staff really tried to be helpful and were really polite, but the stench in the corridor from what we were told was having the carpet cleaned added to the overall experience.
I then had a look at floor map in the room in case of a fire and even the layout of our room was wrong, which is a bit worrying.
The staff really tried but not being able to contact Mercure on their website easily has led to this being put on here which isn't fair to the demotivated staff who tried their best.

Somewhat puzzled why my superior room is £50 more the day after. i have no objection paying over £115 for a room but it needs to be in good repair. parts of the room where broken, paint peeling by the door and the toilet flush very intermittent, the fan didn't work either so surprised the fire alarm didn't go off.

Disappointed

Arrived and had to wait several minutes for Reception, the hotel looked quiet. I went to my room and parts of it had not been cleaned. One of the bed side units had water spilt on it and they had marks from drinks on other parts of the room. The sink had not been cleaned properly and the towel had a hole in it. Disappointed considering this was a superior room, it did not feel like it and that somebody had previously been in the room. When I went to reception to complain there was nobody there due to the bar area being very busy. The Tv and remote control did not work correctly and often just switched off. I have stayed here several times and this was the worst experience so far.

When I arrived to check in around 6pm there was nobody on Reception & I had to wait over 10 minutes before anyone appeared. I even tried calling the Landline phone twice, nobody answered!
Also, it appeared that my booking had not been put onto the Hotel system for some unknown reason.
The room had no USB charge points which is quite old hat these days!
