Clean and warm room. The staff were lovely and polite. The position of the hotel worked very well for our visit (a wedding) and to be able to park safely was also a bonus.
Friendly, efficient check-in. Arrived about 10pm, I think reception is 24-7. Fridge, kettle & desk in room all very helpful. Bit dated cosmetically but everything functional & clean. Overall excellent value.

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
Fantastic stay! Everyone was very friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable and clean. The breakfast was good. The area was safe. In good walking distance to University of Reading.
Will stay there again!
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.

Room wasn’t as clean as we would expect. Lots of mould in the shower. Excellent staff at reception.
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.
