Also had a miscommunication about timing of breakfast which meant I then missed it, however the staff kindly got me some fruit and yoghurt. ##### S Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Damon Dec 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities Comfy bed and clean. Soundproofing could be improved but for be the price and location it's not bad. Didn't try the brekkie so can't comment but it was continental only. ##### Damon Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Paul Nov 2, 2025 Liked: Staff & service Staff were excellent, very helpful and nice, room was good had everything we needed. Could do with a extra blanket it was cold and no heating ##### Paul Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Garry Jan 8, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Didn't go for food or drink. Hotel is good location. Room and facilities low standard, though clean (mostly), not very comfortable and some issues. Bed head presses against light switch and bed wobbles, thus the light kept going on/off. Kettle broken and room was super cold at night. To be fair it was -6 or so outside. Staff were nice and friendly and for the price and location it was fairly good. Star lost for lack of capacity to make tea without leaving the room! ##### Garry Stayed 1 night in Jan 2026 ### 8/10 Good #### Carly Dec 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Good, spacious room and excellent value. Great location. ##### Carly Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John Apr 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service While the hotel is older, the rooms are spacious, the people are so helpful with bringing bags early, nice check-in etc. the restaurant is great and breakfast is free. Very nice all round! ##### John Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Geoff Jun 17, 2025 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Attentive and friendly staff. Historic building, lots of character. Breakfast was croissants, muffins, toast, juice and great strong coffee! The bed was huge and comfy, no street noise. Close to restaurants in town. Definitely recommend this hotel, it’s different and quirky with a big personality. ##### Geoff Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gareth May 13, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Friendly and helpful staff, very clean rooms with daily service, great powerful shower, very comfy bed, close to local amenities ##### Gareth Stayed 5 nights in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Daniel Aug 2, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Quaint little hotel with comfortable rooms. ##### Daniel Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rosie Aug 16, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely welcoming property in a great location.

Hair gel under bed wasnt mine and cleanliness definitely not great. Good location if you are parking a van though as carpark with no height restriction close. ##### Dave Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David Jun 21, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good Hotel We have been here before, this time we paid for a better room and it was loads better. If we are in Reading again we will use this Hotel. ##### David Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Mark Aug 12, 2024 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good value hotel Decent enough for couple of nights , room was fine and close to town .. , could do with aircon but had a fan , no lift but managed ok ##### Mark Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Robert Feb 9, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hotel is very close to Reading town centre and train station, so staying here was very convenient. The staff were friendly and responsive to our needs. The bed was soft, and the shower was powerful. The location is difficult to access by car, however, on account of the UK's bizarre addiction to one-way streets. ##### Robert Stayed 10 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### tracy Jun 24, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Lovely period property noisy fellow guests next door but this can happen anywhere will not stop us booking again ##### tracy Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Andrew Oct 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Central located and walkable.

Was like staying at grandma's, was clean and the bed was comfy but everything else was old, dated, and tired and a bit fusty, shower made awful noise. Carpet was all wrinkled= tripping hazard. The staff were very nice and to be fair u get what u pay for, would i stay again? probably!! just needed a bed and a quick shower no time for a cuppa or tv but was available in the room. Was close to station so very handy. Maybe change carpets and curtains and less lights in the room and remove wallpaper just stick to plain walls cheap fix will make it look better and brighter :) ##### Laura Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Richard May 20, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Nice staff. My Room was massive and very clean. Nice bed. Very tired decor though. bathroom clean but even more tired. Hotel really needs an upgrade. Has the potential to be somewhere special but needs work. ##### Richard Stayed 7 nights in May 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Simon Nov 26, 2024 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort Disliked: Cleanliness #### Cleanliness the only issue Location was excellent for access to the town centre and public transport. Check in was straightforward. The room was very basic, as expected so no problem, but concerned about the cleanliness when my tea cup was stuck to the saucer (face down) and was dirty, and a big clump of hair on the floor outside the shower. Single bed, comfy enough ##### Simon Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Natalie Apr 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness No one on reception to give you a warm welcome, had a sign up to go to the bar to check in. Walking into bar area with other guests around & carrying our luggage..... not ideal. Room was booked for 2 people only 1 cup in the room, had to wait for my partner to finish his before i could have a cup of tea. The shower, although warm was leaking from the shower hose which was hitting the top of the bath & back of the wall straight onto the floor causing a pool of water, other than that comfy bed. ##### Natalie Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Harbour Hotel St Ives](https://www.expedia.ca/St-Ives-Hotels-St-Ives-Harbour-Hotel.h175599.Hotel-Information) > > [The Pearl Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-The-Pearl-Hotel.h6335144.Hotel-Information) > > [Twyford Farm B&B](https://www.expedia.ca/Haywards-Heath-Hotels-Twyford-Farm-BB.h26780826.Hotel-Information) > > [Townhouse Exeter](https://www.expedia.ca/Exeter-Hotels-Townhouse-Exeter.h15212615.Hotel-Information) > > [Pennyhill Park Hotel And Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Bagshot-Hotels-Pennyhill-Park-Hotel-And-Spa.h517256.Hotel-Information) > > [Park City Suites Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Manchester-Hotels-Park-City.h42464558.Hotel-Information) > > [The Black Bull Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kirkby-Stephen-Hotels-The-Black-Bull-Hotel.h5559919.Hotel-Information) > > [Parkview Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/High-Wycombe-Hotels-Parkview-Apartments.h32463857.Hotel-Information) > > [No Man's Fort](https://www.expedia.ca/Portsmouth-Hotels-No-Mans-Fort.h11536410.Hotel-Information) > > [Ebony Cottage is an Escape from the Outside World. ](https://www.expedia.ca/Tenbury-Wells-Hotels-Ebony-Cottage-Is-An-Escape-From-The-Outside-World.h33604911.Hotel-Information) > > [The Manor House](https://www.expedia.ca/Scarborough-Hotels-The-Manor-House.h44509462.Hotel-Information) > > [YotelAIR London Gatwick ](https://www.expedia.ca/Gatwick-Hotels-Yotel-Air-London-Gatwick.h18969729.Hotel-Information) > > [New Park Manor](https://www.expedia.ca/Brockenhurst-Hotels-New-Park-Manor.h7509463.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Mj Kingsway, Cleethorpes Seafront](https://www.expedia.ca/Cleethorpes-Hotels-OYO-Hotel-MJ-Kingsway.h24166027.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Peterborough](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-Peterborough-Marriott-Hotel.h691233.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Albion Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Broadstairs-Hotels-Royal-Albion-Hotel.h2417584.Hotel-Information) > > [Roydon Marina Village Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Harlow-Hotels-Roydon-Marina-Village-Hotel.h34565759.Hotel-Information) > > [Avalon House B&B](https://www.expedia.ca/Lyndhurst-Hotels-Avalon-House-BB.h22560167.Hotel-Information) > > [Manchester Central](https://www.expedia.ca/Manchester-Hotels-Manchester-Central.h39351731.Hotel-Information) > > [Lobster Pot, Bridlington by Marston's Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Bridlington-Hotels-Lobster-Pot.h27478820.Hotel-Information) > > [The George](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-George-Hotel.h45140643.Hotel-Information) > > [Kings Arms Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Stansted-Hotels-Kings-Arms-Hotel.h57669296.Hotel-Information) > > [Low Wood Bay Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Windermere-Hotels-Low-Wood-Bay.h5243.Hotel-Information) > > [The White Hart Royal Hotel, Moreton-in-Marsh](https://www.expedia.ca/Moreton-In-Marsh-Hotels-White-Hart-Royal-Hotel.h3848404.Hotel-Information) > > [Pretty cottage with enclosed patio and private hot tub with stunning veiws](https://www.expedia.ca/Otley-Hotels-Pretty-Cottage-With-Enclosed-Patio-And-Private-Hot-Tub-With-Stunning-Veiws.h58066446.Hotel-Information) > > [Trivelles Hotels - Eccles New Road](https://www.expedia.ca/Salford-Hotels-Trivelles-Hotels-Eccles-New-Road.h11923793.Hotel-Information) > > [The Old Bakery Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kenilworth-Hotels-The-Old-Bakery-Hotel.h44087031.Hotel-Information) > > [Stay at-FL](https://www.expedia.ca/Crawley-Hotels-Stay-At-FL.h89418790.Hotel-Information) > > [Tides Cottage](https://www.expedia.ca/Pevensey-Hotels-Tides-Cottage.h42241061.Hotel-Information)
