Silchester Vacations from $1,094

Ample free parking was a plus. Room facilities did not include safe or fridge. Staffing levels seemed too low at the bar and reception.

The room was large, well decorated and well equipped. Bathroom was beautiful. Walking distance from city centre

Great place. Checkin super easy. Room was a twin and lovely. Shower pucker too which is important. Pool was a lovely touch and breakfast was monster.

We had a good time here with 3 kids in the deluxe family room. Decor and bathroom fittings could be refreshed but the critical things were clean and plenty of space in the rooms and also garden for the kids to chill and play. We thought it was good value for money. Very close to paulton park and also within 30mins drive to most of the walks we wanted to do so all in all a good experience.

Characterful property, though the most interesting downstairs spaces didnt seem to have much function - it felt like they were a corridor to the restaurant. We were in a modern ground floor room - pleasant but some fittings looked a bit tired. There was no aircon. We were charged almost £100 for dinner for 2 (without wine). Food ok but not special - i was not even offered a bread roll with my soup. Most other diners seemed to be families with rather noisy children - overall it felt somewhere between fine dining and a holiday camp. At check in i was pressed to book and pay for breakfast, which i did. Next morning i was told by restaurant staff that they had no record of my booking
