Ten of the Very Best Hotels in Berkshire, England (Based on Personal Experience)

From the moment you drive into its boundaries, there is a touch of class and style to Berkshire that gives it that Royal County approval. What might surprise you about this home county is how good most the hotels in the area are. While I haven’t stayed in all of them I have stayed in more than enough to make a judgment on what some of the best are and that is what this list is, ten of the very best hotels in Berkshire, England…
