While the initial impression is quite good, once under the covers,...not quite as good as my expectations. I had an 'Ambassador' room, while slightly larger than your standard Hilton or Marriott, it was a little 'shabby'. Evidence of either high occupation, or, low attention to maintenance. It is always said that it is the little things, the attention to detail,... More

We stayed overnight on Friday 3rd May. We have stayed at the Apollo on a few occasions and have never been disappointed. It is very conveniently sited good facilities and the staff are very courteous. The in-house Vespers restaurant is well worth a visit and the ample buffet breakfast is a superb way to start the day.

Quite expensive, although most hotels are over priced in Basingstoke, if you are prepared to travel 30 mins outside then Newbury is a much better option. Cheaper than the Holiday Inn and also has a decent pool although a little small when more than 6 people are in at the same time, gym too if you want to pump some... More

Slightly shabby 70’s built hotel, rock hard cheap pillows which always annoys me. Bar staff were pretty useless, ignored us at the table, had to go to the bar and ask them to come over and take the order. 6 people ordered drinks and three ordered food, and nothing was written down. Inevitably one of the food orders (Panini) was... More

Recently stayed at this hotel after a friends wedding. My husband had previously stayed here during a business trip and decided to return. As we have a newborn and a 4 year old, we needed a fairly big room. We were given room 104 which was the Ambassadors Room. Inside were two rooms joined by a walkway. The rooms contained... More

Good hotel. Stayed there while on business for two nights. Staff were helpful and curteous, and the breakfast good. The in-house restaurant was also tested, and offered good food. Beware of the question 'Which newspaper would you like?', as they add a charge to your bill for this. Not a problem in iteslf, but as I rarely have time to... More

My disabled daughter arranged an overnight bed and breakfast accommodation for herself, myself and my wife for the 02/04/13. Our room number allocated was 104, but from the attached images and accompanying notes, you will see it was far from perfect. 1: Mould on shower floor 2: Shower hood filthy. 3: Bed settee ragged left hand side 4: Bed settee...

I have been t this hotel numerous times. First in 2011 when planning my sisters wedding there ( this took several visits and stayed there for 2 nights) and then 23/03/13 for dads surprise birthday. The staff are always very helpful and obliging, polite and well spoken. They coped just as well with our wedding for 60 daytime guests including... More
