Really loved staying at this hotel. We were given a room in a bungalow on the grounds which was very private and quite looking onto a garden, I really loved the fact that it had its own private kitchen and the staff were very helpful in providing things that ran out. Would definately stay there again.

The building was rather tired on the outside and quite functional, although we had everything we needed. However, the staff were excellent and the breakfast was well organised and very good value. Overall it suited our purposes.

First to agree it looks very very very tired... But smiling staff, very helpful and quick check in and a room upgrade. The bed was clean and comfortable, slept really well. For £45 for a monday night, with free parking, in central Reading, absolute bargain.

The room was in a different building to the main hotel. It had a window that wouldn't close fully, it was tired and generally a grim place to be. It wasn't close to the pictures on the hotel site. It ranks among my worst hotel experiences.
