Hotels in Reading, United Kingdom – Book at Best Prices 2026

"It was a nice comfortable room and stay. Cost effective with breakfast. Systems were down so checking was delayed and held us up. Room was too far for my sister to walk as she suffered with a leg injury and found it difficult to walk to and from the room. Accessibility was not considered despite noting it on the booking so she couldn't have the desired shower room as expected. Could be because of the system issue. The room was spacious and nice, hall a little bland, hall carpet a little tarnished possibly due to footballers and co footfall as it's connected to the stadium so perfect for footballers and families at match time. Entrance clean and inviting. There are 2 floors ,no lift so this must be considered if you cannot walk far. Lobby and breakfast hall was clean, and buffet breakfast was nice. Staff were friendly. FYi- my uncle received complimentary benefits for the long check in issues and delays. My sister and I didn't although it would have been nice too, since we waited long also. Overall it was nice but and I would stay again."

"Nice hotel with helpful and friendly staff. Location is good, close to downtown. Environment is nicer than in the centre. Room is big too, simple breakfast but good enough."

"The hotel is just 20 minutes walk from the center. Many rooms options, the team was kind enough to upgrade me to a higher floor room which made me feel better and safer. It seems there was a pub inside which I didn’t use but it sounded lively!"

"The hotel staff are friendly and helpful, and will promptly handle any issues you raise. The hotel's decoration and furniture are outdated, and the bathroom should be renovated. The overall appearance of the hotel and the rooms are neat and clean; the surrounding environment is quiet. It takes about 12-15 minutes to drive to the city center, which is suitable for self-driving tourists. Parking is included in the room rate, saving you the trouble of paying for parking separately."

"Stayed here ahead of a flight from Heathrow which was the second time. Modern, clean, and comfortable with good quality food and service in the bar. Made the mistake of staying at Holiday Inn nearby on the way back which was awful, spend your money here instead."

"We stayed here for a diving competition locally and can’t fault this hotel for value for money! The room was a decent size and spotlessly clean. The breakfast was decent enough and lots of choice. The staff were very attentive and I can’t believe we only paid £58 for the 3 of us with breakfast included! And there’s a pool, gym and sauna included in that price! Reading town is a bit rough but if you need to be central it’s right by the high street and town centre, so very easy"

"The staff is friendly and polite. Although it’s a bit of a drive from Newbury and closer to Thatcham, the location isn’t too bad. There are even public transport links, with a bus stop outside on the line that connects Newbury to Reading. I haven’t tried the food yet, as it seemed a bit expensive to me. However, there’s a pub nearby that serves excellent food. Unfortunately, there’s no air conditioning, but fans are provided."

"**3-Star Review for voco Hotel** I recently stayed at a voco hotel and had a mixed experience. The hotel has a modern and vibrant atmosphere that I really enjoyed upon arrival. The décor is stylish, and the overall ambiance is inviting. The staff were friendly and helpful, ensuring a warm welcome during check-in. However, there were a few areas that could use improvement. While the room was clean and well-appointed, I found it to be smaller than I expected, which made it a bit cramped for two guests. Additionally, I encountered some minor issues with the amenities; for instance, the Wi-Fi was somewhat unreliable at times, which was frustrating during my stay. The hotel's location was decent, with several restaurants and attractions within walking distance, but it wasn't as central as I had hoped. Overall, voco has a great concept with its focus on sustainability and unique twists, but a few tweaks could enhance the overall experience. I would consider staying again, but with slightly lower expectations."

"The hotel's location is excellent, right in the center of Reading. It's incredibly convenient, with shops, department stores, restaurants, cafes, and Reading train station all within walking distance. The hotel's decor is outstanding, and the facilities are brand new. The staff are very friendly and polite. However, a downside is that the hotel doesn't have a lift, and the staircases are quite narrow. If you have large luggage, it would be better to choose a room on a lower floor."
