The hotel is well located near the train station, making it very convenient for us to make day trips to other cities as Reading is a major train hub. We like the room configuration too. Although the room is small but it has everything we need. Of course we like the price, really good value for money.

Very convenient & central to trains/ restaurants etc. a Although no car parking on site, hotel has good discounted car parking nearby- but not so easy to find if you are unfamiliar with area. Pleased to have good double glazing against the raucous noise from revellers that goes on into early hours of the morning. Reception staff most helpful.
