Book a hotel near University of Reading, Reading

"Don't judge by outside"

"We loved it. Great social space and games. Massive comfy beds"

"I needed somewhere that was able to do late check-ins, as I had a long drive late at night to get there - this hotel appears to have round the clock reception, and it was no trouble arriving late at night (after 11pm) - hotel's own website claims 24/7 reception desk, which reassured me. Room was great except the window frame really needed replacing (old wooden frame with cracks and rots in several places, and a latch that was broken so window could not close firmly and leaked cold air from outside). Other than that, very clean, comfy bed, tv, even a small desk with plenty electrical sockets, wifi included, microwave oven, fridge, kettle, plates/cutlery/mugs, tea/coffee, en-suite bathroom with nice towels on warm radiator/towel rail and basic toiletries; on-site parking included in price... Ticked all my boxes for a brief stay for a meeting in Reading the next morning. Also very reasonably priced, in the region of 60 pounds for a mid-week stay. A good option which I may use again in future if I need to stay in Reading - would be plenty nice enough for a longer stay too if needed. They offer breakfast/meals also which I haven't tried - options seemed reasonable from the menu in the room."

"Only one lift running for maintenance Since rooms have been done up they smell of hospital disinfectant Gym is very small and seems to be full of staff at peak times "

"Cheap, not very clean. Location is good "
