"Fabulous, friendly staff"

Despite not expecting more than a standard PI experience and a decent night’s sleep, the staff at this hotel made it a really great stay. They were all incredibly upbeat, kind and helpful, giving a truly warm and welcoming feel. The room was great - quiet, comfortable and dark at night. I ate in the restaurant - food fine and the staff again helpful and positive. Made a brief stop in Reading relaxing and homely - exactly what I wanted.

"Smell of sewerage spoilt our stay and no I do not like leaving reviews like this"

Sadly the drain problem was not sorted and rooms smelt of sewerage. Possibly better if we were warned of this before paying for our stay

"Big Disappointment"

I would definitely visit Reading again, but I wouldn’t stay at this hotel next time. The room I was given (102) was too close to the road and quite noisy. Considering the price - £170 per night, it felt overpriced and not worth the money. The receptionists were very polite, but the overall room arrangement was disappointing.

"Breakfast was a big No No"

The staff were lovely after a four hour drive it was nice to be welcomed with a smile from the nice guy on reception. The room was ok, a little dusty in but overall comfy. The breakfast however was awful! The coffee tasted horrible so I changed to a pot of tea. Most of the teapots were dirty and when I thought I'd found a clean one .. Well the picture says it all! That was the scum from inside the teapot floating on top The mushrooms were covered in dirt and grit and clearly hadn't been washed. The beans were watered down and the rest of the food, apart from the sausages, tasted stale and cold. The parking was also an issue but I know that's down the roadworks and not the hotels fault.
