Room and breakfast

Nice hotel but the rooms need some upgrading now which appears to have already started. We had a meal in the restaurant which was very nice and would recommend. The staff are all very pleasant and give great advice.

The breakfast was wonderful - but the room was not great - it was right next to an alley where people were drinking/smoking into the night; so pretty noisy (no double-glazing). There was no shampoo and the mirror light kept going on and off! The hotel is undergoing renovations which might be the problem. Wouldn’t recommend for now, despite much appreciating the breakfast.

Restaurant and bar very good. Staff good too. Ideal location in the centre of Wantage. Ideal for bus services as stop right outside.

Clean rooms

We reported an issue with the shower which was not resolved. On the first day I asked for Gluten free bread and was told by the server that you did not cater for this. On the second morning a different server was on and offered us gluten free when we sat down.

Great value, clean rooms, helpful staff.

Great Breakfast menu included in price. All staff are very friendly and helpful.

the room was excellent on the ground floor . Staff were friendly and we had an excellent meal in the restaurant and amazing breakfast .

Room small. Glass shelve in bathroom Breakfast eeds atten

Hotel is good, a nice pub come hotel. The bed….wow, super comfy. Shower was strong & hot. Breakfast was decent, if a little on the cool side. Overall very happy especially given the price! Highly recommended!

good breakfast - diverse

Bar was busy which gave it a warm and lively atmosphere and is a positive, not negative. The food and service was good. Only comment was 10% gratuity added to the food bill which i didnt notice at the time, the service was good but I prefer the option of adding a thanks rather it just being automatically added.

Lovely

Everything was very good, comfy bed, nice and quiet, strong shower and nice and clean. Although the rooms are starting to look a bit tired and could do with updating.

Was ok but the staff were loud and loads of swearing and banging till midnight!

Typical old English hotel with an excellent restaurant and a great bar! Rooms are small but cozy. We enjoyed our stay. Thanks to The Bear!
