We have been married for just over a year now and because of personal circumstances decided to have our marriage blessed. We had the reception at The Great House Sonning who organised everything for us at relatively short notice and the staff there could not have done more to have made it a day to remember. The food and table... More

We celebrated a friend's birthday by having Sunday lunch at The Great House. The hotel has old world charm and the food was priced very reasonably at £19.50 for 3 courses. There was a good choice of food, which was well presented and well cooked. The waiters were very attentive. We particularly liked the starters and desserts. For instance one... More

What a beautiful location and it is a quaint hotel with separate bedroom accommodation from the main hotel itself. Room we stayed in was lovely, plenty of room, tea/coffee facilities and nice and warm. As we arrived late in the evening cold and wet decided to eat there rather than go find somewhere in the location. Price for the food... More

We chose The Great House as a venue for our wedding last year, due to its location. It allowed us to bring up our wide-beam and moor it outside. The staff went out of their way to ensure that everything was perfect for our afternoon and evening event. The food was cooked and presented to a very high standard and... More

We joined 50 others for Sunday lunch today at The Great House. We pre-chose menu options and the food and service were very good. I had the roast lamb for my main course. It was a large portion & beautifully pink. My husband had the fish, which was also very good. Recommended.

We stayed one night, having made a booking online. Booking and reception on arrival worked well and we were directed to our room. First impression was OK, although my wife thought the room looked a little small for the kind of establishment it purports to be. We soon found more chinks in the armour. After a walk along the towpath... More

My stay at The Great house at Sonning was less than inspiring. The place looked nice when I turned up, nice car park etc. I booked a single room but was given a twice room which seemed dated but clean. I did notice the room was a little chilly as I entered. The radiator was on full. I thought maybe... More

We have been to the Great House several times for dinner, and also had our wedding reception here in 2011. We have nothing to complain about this hotel. The meals that we have had off of the al carte menu taste beautiful and are beautifully presented. Since our wedding reception here, we tend to come back every other month or... More

Well, after a weekend at the Premier Inn Leicester Square, I decided to book a room at the Great House Sonning. I am glad I did, we arrived at 9:00 pm, the night porter gave fantastic directions and we found our way here. Perhaps we were lucky with the room, perhaps Booking.com were having a sale, however, even the rack... More
