The rate was 44 pounds for the night. Suited our purpose for family party in Reading. Comfy bed, small bathroom and room miles from reception. The pub was closed from 3 p.m. for private function but when we returned at 1145 it was still closed and empty! Not sure where the people were perhaps it was a meeting of the... more

Stayed here a couple of weeks ago with two of my children (9 & 13), and am going back tomorrow! I chose the hotel for location, and for a really good price (hotel with pool facilities for same price as a Travel Inn) - but was delighted to find it exceeded my expectations by some margin. The location isn't particularly... more

We met friends for dinner here at the restaurant, what a mistake. You would get better quality and value from the fish and chip shop opposite. The restaurant was full of children (obviously as they eat free its a local bargain) and felt like a motorway service station, plastic tired banquettes, badly laid tables and we were dining as a... more

This hotel is a £12 taxi ride from the station and as such is not easy to get to. Upon arrival I was told that I had no reservation - this was cleared up when I found that they had spelt my name wrong despite me having a copy of the fax that had been sent by my company's booking... more

I had booked this hotel through Legoland Windsor wbsite. It indicated that it was near Legoland. However, when we got there we realised that we had to catch two or three different underground trains. It wouldn't have been a problem for us had we not had our two year-old son in a buggy and our five year old. The main... more

We stayed here during the Reading Festival (couldn't face camping), and were pleasantly surprised at the standard of this hotel. We had only paid £25 for the room so weren't expecting much, but found the hotel & room to be spotlessly clean. The room was very spacious and bed comfortable. Unfortunately we didn't get a chance to eat at the... more

Thoroughly enjoyed stay at this hotel. Got more than we bargained for in an offer with Legoland (3 nights stay, 2 days family tickets to Legoland and 1 freebie family ticket for Chessington WoA thrown in). This hotel was very child friendly with children being welcomed by courteous reception with a welcome pack and having a small children's corner. Far... more

Stayed for three nights as part of a Legoland/Chessington break. The staff were welcoming and very helpful. We arrived Sunday afternoon so the boys enjoyed a swim in the pool. Room spotless and spacious. It was great to have 2 single beds for the boys and there was plenty of room around the beds. A real bonus was the air... more
