The Reading area is full of overpriced expensive hotels, so when I found this one I was really surprised. Located not far from the M4 jct 12 and a large free on site car park, unusual for Reading! The rooms were not enormous but a decent size for the price I paid for a standard room £85. A nice lounge... more

Whenever I travel back to Reading I stay at the Calcot Hotel. I know what I am going to get. Always a friendly welcome and staff that actually speak to you! The restaurant is fine, good choice and comfortable. Rooms are spacious, well appointed and quiet. If you don't want to pay high prices and want better quality than a... more

I have stayed here a few times, and always found the hotel staff to be very helpful. The breakfasts are ordered and served, not the help yourself buffett type. The menu and quality of food in the evenings is good and plentyful. My room was a good sized double with with a good sized bathroom. The room was very clean... more

I stayed at the hotel for 4 nights on business. My work booked the hotel through a travel agent so I was unaware until the second day that I was paying £90 a night for a Very Small single room. I was told that the double rooms were £100. If you book short notice in this part of the world... more

Spent 3 days at the Calcot Hotel recently staying there while on business. Hotel itself is nice enough, easy to find a couple of minutes from the M4. Room was of a decent size, although it must have been the smallest double bed I've ever slept in. TV worked fine although the channel list wasn't quite right, batchroom was clean... more

Had a family gathering booked with private dining (Grandads 80th). Staff all really friendly. Looked after all of us really well. Nowhere much for kids outside but they loved the place. Most family members stayed over - all comfortable. Great value for what we paid. Will stay again if we do this again. And we probably will. more

I stayed for 1 night in one of the smallest rooms imaginable. The bathroom (shower-room) was barely big enough to turn around in and because I didn`t spot the sign on the door, I missed the step down into the room from the corridor. Breakfast was OK - supposedly made to order but it arrived in a couple of minutes... more

I stayed at this hotel for two weeks in August 2007. The first week was fine. Staff were helpful and welcoming and the room I had was clean, comfortable and a decent size, although it was quite dark as it faced a grassy bank. The breakfasts were nice and good value for money. The evening food was okay, prepared to... more
