10/10 Excellent
"A wonderful stay with exceptional service! We had a fantastic stay at The Great House in Sonning and would happily return! When we first arrived, the TV in our room wasn’t working. We mentioned it to reception, and they immediately offered us two alternative rooms, which we were able to go and look at before deciding. The whole situation was handled so quickly and efficiently, and the staff couldn’t have been more helpful. The bathroom in the room we moved to was slightly smaller, but that really wasn’t an issue. The room itself was lovely, with an incredibly comfortable bed and pillows. It was also great to have heating available if needed, as well as a fan for warmer weather. We particularly loved the little touches, such as the selection of snacks and drinks in the minibar, especially the fact that the snacks were from British brands. It’s those thoughtful details that make a difference. We had dinner at the restaurant in the evening and breakfast the following morning, and both were excellent. The food was delicious, and the service was outstanding. But what really makes this hotel stand out is the people. Every member of staff we encountered was genuinely friendly, welcoming and attentive. You really get the feeling that they care about their guests and want everyone to have a wonderful experience. We absolutely loved our stay and would definitely recommend The Great House. We can’t wait to come back!"

What is the best area to stay in Silchester?
The best area to stay in Silchester is in the surrounding countryside, as Silchester itself is a small village without dedicated hotel accommodation.For a luxurious and peaceful retreat, look for country house hotels or boutique B&Bs in nearby villages such as Mortimer, Tadley, or Bramley. These locations typically offer spacious grounds, fine dining options, and a tranquil setting away from any hustle and bustle. You'll often find properties set in historic buildings, providing a quintessential English countryside experience.Couples seeking a romantic getaway will appreciate the secluded nature of these countryside estates.

These towns offer a wider range of hotels, restaurants, and family-friendly attractions, while still allowing easy access to Silchester's historical sites for a day trip.
When is the best time to go to Silchester?
The best time to visit Silchester is generally during the spring (April to June) and autumn (September to October) months.These periods offer pleasant weather, making it ideal for exploring the outdoor attractions. You'll find fewer crowds compared to the peak summer season, and the natural beauty of the surrounding Hampshire countryside is particularly appealing, with blooming flowers in spring and colourful foliage in autumn.For those interested in historical exploration, particularly the Silchester Roman City Walls and Amphitheatre, milder temperatures make walking around the extensive site much more comfortable. This is great for couples or solo travellers who enjoy leisurely strolls and absorbing history without the summer heat or winter chill.Families might find the summer holidays (July and August) appealing due to school breaks.
