“Overpriced”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed May 23, 2012 NEW

Clean twin room. 2 very small beds (90cm), not very comfortable (too hard), At 150£ for single occupancy plus 16£ for Internet (no even a free-zone), this is a rip off. More

“an older chain motel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed May 3, 2012

Very much like a Holiday Inn of the 1970's or 1980's--that is not intended a a criticism just a statement about ambiance. The breakfast buffet was good with hot and cold food so you could make yourself a "full english" if you wished. My one complaint was the locked emergency/access doors that meant a long walk with luggage from the... More

“Nice Hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed April 29, 2012

We only stayed one night at Reading, on our way to Legoland. Arriving after a long drive following a long day at Alton Towers on Easter Sunday we headed straight to reception. Despite being a Platinum Rewards Card holder with IHG there was no mention of upgrade or additional benefits mentioned at check in, which is a shame. Although the... More

“Clean hotel, friendly staff and poor food.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed April 28, 2012

Fairly close to M4 J11. On the edge of Worton Grange industrial estate. There does not seem to be much else within walking distance except from some houses, a LIDL and Shell garage. The dinner menu is fairly average but not much taste. The breakfast menu is OK but the hot food is not even warm. The Danish pastries and... More

This is a perfectly acceptable hotel that is no better or worse then many holiday inns. The room was clean and comfortable although quite small and a little dated. The bathroom was tiny with a pathetic shower but again was clean and had a full size bath. It appears they have decided to resort to blatant profiteering by ripping their... More
