"Funky luxury hotel with a railway theme."
Overview
This historic property reflects a funky Malmaison style that also conveys its proximity and long-standing relationship with the nearby railway. Public areas feature rail memorabilia and excellent pictures. The bedrooms here have all the amenities a modern guest would expect, plus comfort and quality in abundance. Dining in the Malmaison Bar & Grill is interesting too, with a menu that features home-grown and local produce accompanied by an impressive wine list.

About the area
Berkshire consists of two distinct parts: the western half, which is predominantly rural, with the Lambourn Downs spilling down to the River Lambourn and the Berkshire Downs to the majestic Thames, and the eastern half of Berkshire, which offers plenty of opportunity to get out and savour open spaces. Reading and Newbury are the county’s major towns, and the River Kennet flows through them both.
