Overall Ratings & Reviews The New Inn - Kidmore End

Mixed bag stay. The good: comfortable bed, friendly staff, beautiful country location, parking close by. The bad: poor sound insulation, stained carpet, mouldy shower. For the price, I would not return. Solve the above and this would be a great place to stay.

Having booked back in January for a two night stay on 24 and 25 December to include breakfast for two days upon arrival we were advised that following a change of ownership breakfast was no longer available but we could have a breakfast basket for an additional £10. When we advised the member of staff that we had already paid for breakfast she confirmed that it would be provided at no extra cost. When the breakfast basket arrived for the first morning it consisted of two fruit juices, instant porridge x2, an apple, an orange and two croissants well past their best before dates with a selection of preservatives! And to top it all we didn’t have a breakfast basket delivered for the second morning! We feel that there was plenty of opportunity to advise us about the breakfast situation beforehand so that we could make alternative arrangements. The bathroom fittings were in a very poor state of repair, the shower control was incomplete, the water outlet for the bath had dropped and was surrounded by mouldy sealant, the sink tap was very loose with lots of limescale and the sink plug did not seal. We have stayed here previously albeit a little while ago with no complaints at all. We feel that the accommodation is very tired and neglected. Will have second thoughts before booking again.

Very nice place

Lovely country pub with restaurant and large, safe garden. Good atmosphere and owners friendly and helpful. Room large and bed comfortable. We only stayed one night but wished we had stayed longer.

Not particularly great for the price. No Internet or breakfast

Fab hotel stay, I will be back

Managers only be there a week so may not have had time to fix things, bathroom was not clean and everything just looked jaded

Excellent service, fantastic staff, delicious food. A great place to stay in a quiet country location. Will definitely return. Highly recommended!

Staff were great. Property is in a quiet village and that suited our needs for this trip

Great for one night stay. Comfy beds.Quiet location in village

Wonderful location, well prepared, good quality food, comfortable room and bed.

The staff were so lovely here and the room was comfortable and clean.

We arrived late but were greeted by the very welcoming host and made to feel at home.

Excellent. Would stay again

It was great, a bit more remote than we were expecting but that was a bonus. Staff were very friendly and food and room just right.

Lovely old fashioned pub/accommodation. The rooms were small but cosy. Coffee and tea facilities and everything we needed for our stay. Although we didn't eat there the food looked really nice, and they serve a few guest ales. All in all was quite a nice place and would stay there again if visiting the area. Would try the food as well.

Very clean, comfortable and quiet. I only stayed one night whilst on a business trip. I couldn't get the wifi to work but I didn't ask for it to be looked at as it forced me to switch off from work. The food in the pub was excellent and the staff very helpful.

Room over looked the back of the kitchen so the fans were noisy. The walls between the rooms are paper thin so you can hear everything! The shower was dangerously scolding hot couldn't turn the heat down.

Really lovely place fab food, friendly staff lovely location and just a really nice place to stay and eat. Will definitely be staying again

Nice quiet location close enough to Reading centre with a lovely pub atmosphere. Real ale, good food and friendly staff.
