This hotel is under new management. They are currently refurbishing the common areas of the hotel and have already done a few of the rooms. I had two nights here in room 7 which was clean, quiet and comfortable. Room 1 is also a good room. The new managers are a wonderful couple, full of ideas and plans to create... More

If you're thinking of walking from Reading's main train station to the Abbey House Hotel, think twice - it will take you about thirty minutes. It's in a nice quiet area, it's more like a family-run B&B, and the owners are friendly and helpful. I had a small single room with a separate bathroom, which I did not have to... More

Very good hotel the management are very friendly and the rooms are clean and tidy. The breakfast is good with a variety of choices. They will supply you with plates cutlery and the use of there microwave if you fancy a takeaway which is good when your working away from home on a budget.

Room was clean but the common areas of the hotel are in need of repair. They are continuing to charge rates that more up-to-date hotels charge. They could also do with some new towels, ones that aren't paper thin.

The staff were very welcoming, the rooms clean and neat and the breakfast was unexpectedly high quality. Would be happy to go back again and I would advise those considering a stay here to ignore the... More

Stayed at hotel for a week, whilst working in reading. The hotel was adequate for its purpose, no frills and basic room. But it was value for money as it was inexpensive to stay there for the week. The only negative was there were no meals provided in the evening, although the owner was happy for me to use the... More

Our first choices were all booked up (due to Olympics?) We had no choice but to go here as our next option had double booked, they said. We found out that the owners are friends! One person said it was in the Red Light District although we didn't see evidence of this. No lift to the top floor. The room... More

Myself and a business colleague stayed here during the week of the 9th July for 4 nights, an unfortunate choice forced upon us due to a shortage of accomodation Despite the glossy photographs depicted, the place is less than adequate. It has seen a change of ownership which has certainly had a detrimental impact. The rooms are not of a... More
