The Market House

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was a bit of a surprise, I’d it’s a little quirky, in a good way. The room was clean, large and well decorated. The location is great to visit attractions and just walk to many restaurants, cafes and historic sites. The staff was also super friendly and accommodating. "

"2 night family stay with my wife and 2 young kids which was a treat for our 13th year old daughters birthday weekend which we combined with a trip to LEGOLAND. Check in was quick and easy. The room was amazing which the girls loved, especially a “big” bed to themselves. We used the indoor swimming pool on both days which was a good treat for all. Breakfast was amazing with so much food. Plenty of parking with a quick and easy check out. We will definitely be back!!!"

Sure Hotel by Best Western Reading

10/10 Excellent

"I heard a few bad reviews so I was a bit apprehensive about booking . The moment I arrived at the reception it did take a few moments for the staff to allocate a room but it wasn’t a long wait I was approached with smiles . The staff are friendly and always helpful . The room was exceptionally clean , equipped with a microwave /fridge freezer and cutlery /mugs /tea and coffee /milk and a kettle . I slept like a baby . No Air conditioner but a fan but to be fair it’s a 3 star hotel so I wasn’t expected an AC although it would have been great (lol). Breakfast was decent . Please do not go by the reviews on here , book it and experience it for yourself . I don’t know what people were really expecting for a 3 star hotel but I was genuinely impressed. "

Holiday Inn Reading South M4 Jct11 by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Stylish and Convenient Stay – Highly Recommended! This is a modern and stylish hotel located just steps from the metro, making it incredibly convenient for getting around the city. The rooms are spacious, clean, and well-equipped with everything you might need. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful throughout our stay, which really added to the overall experience. A nice touch is their eco-friendly voucher program – you get €5 credit if you opt out of daily room cleaning. One of the highlights was the rooftop pool and bar – beautifully maintained, with plenty of loungers and a relaxed vibe. It never felt crowded, even during peak hours. All in all, a great place to stay. I would absolutely recommend this hotel and would happily return!"
