Reviews and Ratings
I had a delightful stay at the hotel. The rooms were very cozy and comfortable, providing a spacious and well-equipped environment. The service was top-notch delivered by fabulous staff, making me feel welcomed and well taken care of. The location was truly luxurious, offering fabulous views and a serene atmosphere. The dining experience was mostly excellent with succulent dishes, yet some noise concerns affected the overall enjoyment. Overall, a great stay with a few minor hiccups.
The Calcot Hotel is an absolute gem with its beautiful rooms full of delightful touches and a fantastic dining room experience. The staff are top-notch here, making the stay truly memorable. However, there might be a few minor cons to consider.
The hotel offers stunning views over the valley, beautiful rooms, and friendly and efficient staff. However, there is a lack of storage space in the rooms. The location is idyllic and relaxing, but parking can be a bit restrictive. The dining experience is good overall but with limited bread selection.
