I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The location couldn't be better - right in the center of town and just a short walk to Reading Mal. The staff, especially the night manager Peter, were incredibly helpful and went out of their way to make my stay comfortable. The hotel facilities were top-notch and the cleanliness was impeccable. Plus, the breakfast service was excellent, with a wide selection of delicious options. the staff, location, cleanliness, and breakfast were the best aspects of my stay.
All was perfect.
The location in the city centre, just across the road from the station, was incredibly convenient. The hotel facilities were excellent, with a comfortable and quirky room design. Breakfast was delicious, with freshly cooked hot food. The staff were very helpful and friendly.
Nothing not to like.
The hotel's cleanliness was top-notch. The facilities provided were great, especially the parking option. Transportation was a breeze, with the train station just across the street. The location of the hotel was incredibly convenient, being close to the train station and having easy access to London.
Absolutely nothing to say about dislikes.
