The rooms didn't have air-condition and it was so hot and no air coming in as the windows are broken. The sheets had some hair on them. The staff were very friendly and helped as much as they could by changing our room, although the second room was hot as well.

It's been blazing hot in the UK recently, and our room had neither air conditioning nor a window screen, so our only option was a fan. Sometime in the middle of the night, I said phooey to potential mosquitoes or burglars and opened our window wide just to survive. The breakfast was fantastic, though, and the property is cute.

Family room needs a new bathroom
I have stayed at this hotel several times over the past few years as it is very close to my daughters’ University campus and was therefore very convenient. I have either stayed in the main hotel or next door annexe. This time I visited with my family and there were 4 of us, so we stayed in their larger family room on the ground floor in the main hotel building. The main bedroom was nice and clean, however the bathroom was extremely tired looking and in desperate need of a refurbishment. An old bathtub, badly lit with old yellow fluorescent lighting, it was really depressing. It’s obvious that the main bedroom was renovated but they omitted to also do the bathroom.

Great location for central Reading fast , 15/20mibs to Station via frequent bus service that stops close by . Couple of nights fine if you are at party/ wedding locally or use as a base to visit London - 25 mins to Paddington. Room / Price fair , bathroom small but quite new and clean, fridge, microwave fine . Safety box in the room . Outside of the hotel is tired and annex entrance could do with tidying up - weeds growing on steps , lots of cigarette ends , litter in garden We did not use the breakfast on offer so canno comment on this

Avoid: Total shambles at check-in
Checked in and was shown to my room by reception staff using my card key. Dropped my belongings in the room. Came back after dinner with a colleague to find the card key not working. After contacting reception, it turns out that I had been put in the wrong room and they had let the actual occupant into the room with all my belongings!!! Reception staff had to knock on the door and I had to remove everything that was mine quickly from the room with the other chap present, including clothes hung up in the wardrobe and other bits and pieces scattered around the room. Luckily nothing was missing. Was offered a quick apology and nothing else beyond that. Stayed two nights. On the following day, my room card key stopped working again. Reported to reception and said firmly that I hoped I wasn't double booked again and he just laughed! Room quality was slightly below average. Bathroom tired, but bedding and carpets clean. Paid nearly £90 per night including breakfast which was the same price as another hotel I have stayed in elsewhere in Reading, with a modern room double the size, everything working and breakfast included. Breakfast was average, probably not worth the extra cost. Didn't sleep well due to the above events and won't ever be staying again!!

The staff were super friendly and helpful - there’s always one that’s catching up. The staff made the stay bearable. Would you like a kitchenette? Should be asked on booking - the rooms I saw / stayed in which meant the place is over used. First room very run down and smelt of cigs / loos. Second room clean and refurbed but with a kitchenette that had a noisy ventilator that couldn’t be turned off. The BW room designers should stay overnight in their designed rooms and experience them first hand. The new bathroom had a sink that was to wide and obstructed getting off the loo, the tap too short for the sink bowl and the mirror stood proud of the wall so made the shallow sink even shallower when it came to cleaning your teeth it called for some odd body twists and angles. The gym (6 machines and no floor mat) air con not working making the room stifling. All in all I’d not recommend. But as I say the staff tried the hardest. The freshly cooked breakfast was lovely.

Single female stayed for 1 night in June 2024. I was a bit concerned after reading reviews but I was pleasantly surprised. Room was in the coach house outside, ground floor by entry door. The room was lovely and clean including shower and kitchenette. I could hear people next door and it was noisy when others entered the building. The room was reasonably priced and offered good value. I walked to the park closeby and also to the town centre. I paid for continental breakfast, gluten free bread was provided. Plenty of parking space. Pleasantly surprised
