"Excellent hotel! Our stay was wonderful, the staff were incredible! The building itself is beautiful and the location was perfect. Breakfast was top notch. If I find myself in Reading again, will absolutely stay here. "
"Attentive and friendly staff. Historic building, lots of character. Breakfast was croissants, muffins, toast, juice and great strong coffee!
The bed was huge and comfy, no street noise.
Close to restaurants in town.
Definitely recommend this hotel, it’s different and quirky with a big personality. "
"This room was simple, but clean and the shower was good. The owner gave me an upgrade so that I did not have to share a bathroom. For the price, it exceeded my expectations."

"Apartment was spotless and spacious, and the beds were comfortable. Kitchen facilities were good, but we didn't need to use much.
There were a few bars & restaurants very close to the apartment. I did not see a supermarket (but did not venture far!)
The roads around Reading town centre were a bit confusing and our sat nav wanted to avoid roads that were only for buses and black cabs but you need to drive through that zone to get to the apartments.
If you are driving, please read all the info provided with the confirmation. It includes info that the hosts need to arrange a permit for you at least 24 hours in advance if you are arriving or leaving outside of certain hours.
When we checked in, the host was aware of all the details I had provided and it went smoothly. The only improvement would have been if I could have received email confirmation they had made the permit arrangements etc.
There is a phone number to call if you arrive and no one is at the reception desk.
The check in and out was smooth. The hosts were friendly and efficient.
Could not fault the apartment and facilities.
