Royal Berkshire

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.

We came to visit The Royal Berkshire back in February 2020 before lockdown. We meet the lovely Evie and after that meeting we know we found the venue of our dreams!! And booked straight away!! After lockdown staff had changed and we went through a couple of temporary wedding coordinators. I must say the communication was lacking and I found myself feeling very nervous and not sure who was looking after our big day. Then something magical happened! The Royal Berkshire found the perfect team! And we was met by the Lovely Dominika who invited us in for a chat. We spoke about the day, voiced our concerns and we were heard, listened to and reassured that our wedding was in good hands. The venue invited us to an open evening, where they had revamped the wedding space to update it, we were able to check out the new fresh rooms and try the delicious canapés. Near the time of the wedding we did our menu tasting. We were given a choice of food and wines to try for the big day. 2 months away from the wedding, we was given our personal wedding coordinator for the day it’s self!! The lovely Lydia!! At first I was a little upset that Dominika was not going to look after the day it’s self! But we met with Lydia and fell in love!! She saw my vision my bible book!! And loved it!! The Friday before the wedding we had are final handover with Lydia who was looking after the day of the wedding and Sam who was looking after the evening part of the wedding. The handover was perfect we went through all the details and was happy knowing our big day was in the best hands. The wedding was a big success with no hiccups, Lydia was able to take everything from my wedding planner and make my vision come true. She was a dream to work with and a great asset to the Royal Berkshire family. I want to say a big Thank you!!!! The Royal Berkshire is a home away from Home. With the best wedding team!! A massive Thank you!! To Lydia your an amazing person, you made the final process so easy and made us feel so relaxed towards the end. We had a great laugh with you, keep being you!! Amazing 🤩! Look after them upcoming brides as I know you will. A big Thank you!! To Sam you helped the evening run so smoothly. I wish you all the very best for your upcoming engagement! She will say YES!! With the plan you have and how sharp you will look in the tie!! I’m left to say, if you’re looking for the best venue with the best staff! Look no one!! Check their page and website out!! Say Amy sent us here!! You won’t be disappointed!! To everyone at The Royal Berkshire!! Thank you for making our wedding day so magical. We wish you all the staff the very best. See you soon Love the Searle’s

An absolutely wonderous wedding day at The Royal Berkshire. I still get emotional thinking about how perfect the venue was. If you are planning a wedding you must go and take a look. The attention to detail, the service, the food, the options to have the day of your dreams are all possible here. From the outdoor ceremony that we were lucky enough to have because of the weather, the day was PERFECT. Seamless and stress-free, they really do think of every single thing for you before you need to. Every guest commented on how friendly and professional every single member of staff were - just so accommodating and helpful - we cant thank you enough. Special mentions to Dominika who is just the nicest and best wedding co-ordinator and Lay who stayed for the entire evening with a huge smile on her face. Every single member of staff contributed to us having our perfect day. Rooms are beautiful, bedrooms are generous and beautifully appointed. THANK YOU SO MUCH

We are regular visitors to this lovely hotel, our visit this time was for a weekend break to celebrate my birthday. We got a free upgrade to a beautiful room and the staff had left a box of chocolates with a handwritten note. So thoughtful. We dined in the restaurant on the second evening, the food was excellent and they gave me a complimentary plate of fruit with happy birthday written in chocolate, again a very thoughtful touch. Thank you for yet another lovely stay!

My Son got married at the Royal Berkshire on 15th August and it was simply perfect ! Dominica and all the staff here are professional, efficient and friendly. The rooms are beautiful and the attention to detail is second to none. Nothing is too much trouble and the food we were served on the day was fantastic. The only comment I would make is we were surprised they did not sell prosecco as the cheapest sparkling wine was £75 and I think this is the only venue I have visited that doesn't stock prosecco. If anyone is considering having their wedding here do not hesitate you will not be disappointed!

My husband and I had an overnight stay as part of his 60th birthday celebrations. We were upgraded to an East Wing Cool Room, with patio doors overlooking the garden and complimentary chocolates left for my husband, which was a lovely touch. This is a beautiful hotel in lovely surroundings. Our room felt luxurious and was very quiet and comfortable. Breakfast next day, whilst not cooked to order was very good, with fresh orange juice and a good selection of well cooked buffet food. All in all a lovely experience, we will definitely stay again.

This is such a special hotel and it’s not just because of the gorgeous location, excellent rooms and delicious breakfast, the people here really make it! Every member of staff is so kind and helpful - we got married here back in August 2022 and I do have to give a special shout out to that team because they really were incredible (and continue to be remembering us even 2 years on)! We feel incredibly lucky we chose this hotel to get married in as it’s somewhere so lovely to come back to and even prior to getting married - the staff were incredibly attentive when we visited. Take the time to enjoy the grounds and the bar area - they are such lovely relaxing places. And also, leave plenty of room for the breakfast, you won’t regret it!

I had to book a hotel as I was working long hours locally over the weekend. The staff at reception are fantastic. The hotel was very clean, the room was spacious and clean. The grounds are amazing. If I had one gripe, I'm not a fan of two single beds joined together to create a double, it's a massive pet peeve of mine. We are already planning our next stay.

This is the second time we have had Afternoon Tea at the Royal Berkshire Hotel. The first was very good this time it was superb. We were offered additional items from everything on the menu but the afternoon tea which arrived at our table out on the terrace on the terrace was sufficient and we even took some cakes home in the box provided. n with great weather for dining outside we lingered on for a couple of hours, the staff member who served was attentive and helpful. A very good place for afternoon tea in a tranquill setting with very tasty sandwiches and cakes.
