Everything was wonderful EXCEPT no air conditioning so the whole hotel felt like a sauna (we were there during a heat wave in May) and they didn’t do table service for dinner so we had to order our food and drinks from the bar, which isn’t the end of the world but knocks a star off the rating. Room was super cute, well decorated, the bathroom was really nice, loved the shower and it was very clean. We were able to walk to Highclere Castle from the hotel (20 minute walk) which was great because taxis are very expensive.

Breakfast was very good, with excellent quality food. In fact, the food is very good throughout. Stowage for clothes in your bedroom is limited but still a great place to stay.

The staff were friendly and attentive, making us feel extremely welcome from the moment we walked in the door. The pub area was attractive and inviting and the food offerings for dinner and breakfast were excellent. Our rooms were cozy yet luxurious with several thoughtful amenities included. Even though we were in close proximity to Highclere Castle, we elected to take a taxi over there for the tour we booked and back due to fast moving traffic on the nearby roads. We will definitely stay here again when next traveling in the area.

We loved our stay at this inn. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. We had a great breakfast in the morning, and we were very close to Highclere Castle. Definitely recommend The Carnarvan Arms.

The Hotel and staff couldn’t have been more accommodating. My wife had recently suffered a broken leg, which necessitated a room change to a dog friendly ground floor room. Food was plentiful and nice. The location although just outside off the A34 was quiet enough. WiFi was great and the pub/hotel itself was very dog friendly. We would definitely stay again if we’re ever down that way again
