Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
I was offered a newly refurbished “Club Room” for which I paid an additional £10. The room was fabulous. High end bathroom fittings, lights all over the room which were turned on/off by a switch by the bed. The staff were excellent, with directions and assistance with printing documents. Good value for money and hugely recommended.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The hotel was slightly tired, but very clean and had everything we needed in the room.
The staff were very friendly, efficient and helpful.
Very recommendable
Overall wonderful experience, all staff I encountered were courteous and helpful. Room was clean and fresh, bed comfortable and all linens smelled delightful! Located on a bus route, easy walk into town Centre, various shops/eateries a few minutes walk away from hotel. I will definitely stay there again.
A very short stay to drop our son off at university perfect location for this.
The rooms had a fridge and microwave and kitchen utensils which could have been very useful if we had stayed longer
Overal a good stay
The staff members was very helpful
Bed very comfortable

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was average. The beds need attention or replacement, as the springs are worn out. We could clearly hear noise from the opposite room even with the doors closed, which made the stay quite noisy. I wouldn’t recommend this place for couples or families.
The staff were good, and all the in-room amenities were satisfactory. However, the tap water was not drinkable, as it had a rusty taste, and the towels appeared yellowish for some reason.
I felt its pricey for this kind of hotel. We choose this hotel because it was near to my sisters home during Christmas.
Had a nice few day's in this property the room was really nice and really good value for money and the staff where more then helpful are definitely be back again
Stayed here twice now and both times an excellent stay and staff amazing! Rooms are lovely clean and very well equipped. Food and bar area great too will always stay here when in the area
Beautiful building in quiet residential area, close to Reading University. 5 minutes walk to Tesco Express. The free parking space is ample. The staff are excellent. The breakfast is surprisingly good. Only the room is basic. There is a damp smell. Had to leave windows open to air it.
