We booked this hotel for a 3 night stay while attending Reading festival. We purchased the festival tickets on the basis that we had accommodation for the 3 nights it runs. The hotel then cancelled our booking the next day to double their prices, which left us with very limited options of places to book all in the range of £1,000. No communication from the hotel other than a message through booking.com to say our booking is cancelled and we contacted booking.com customer service who then contacted the hotel who said the only option was to rebook a room at the inflated price. This has now left us over £600 down for the festival tickets as all other accommodation is far out of our budget.

Polite and helpful staff. The room was cramped, badly lit and poor quality. The Hotel Reception area was very tired and needs a massive upgrade. The female hotel manager forgot to book us a taxi which was irritating. Overall I would not recommend it.

We really enjoyed staying at the hotel and highly recommend it. The location near the city center and hospital is very convenient and there is plenty of free parking. The buildings are old but our room had everything that we needed, and when we had to extend our stay we were able to move to a room with a kitchenette which we used every day. All of the staff were incredibly responsive and helpful - they genuinely care about their guests. The breakfast choice and quality were excellent.

Room was tatty, ill equipped, cold, old fashioned. Staff unhelpful. Not what I was expecting from what I thought I had booked. I was misled by the hotel who called me to alter my booking. It was like being in the worst bedsit you could imagine. I would think prison cells are more comfortable. It was truly a dreadful experience. Never again will I stay at a Best Western.

We checked in, everything was fine. We came back at 1am only to find out that the electricity in the room wasn’t working. We were offered to move to another room which was a lot worse: facilities very outdated, blind felt like you have no privacy, extremely noisy. We spent a terrible night. We were not offered any kind of compensation, not even an apology. Actually the person at check out didn’t even care to ask how our stay was. I strongly advise to book literally any other hotel in Reading.

Unless you literally just want a bed for the night then pick another hotel. Bathroom door split by lock which then didnt shut. Windows rotting and need a very good clean. Room smelt of stale cigarettes. Noisy at night so impossible to sleep well. Breakfast very basic and staff not very friendly. On checkout staff couldnt be bothered to ask how it was, just chuck ur key in a bowl and go. Will not be going back.

Staff were very nice, room very small and needs a complete revamp. Doors very noisy slamming all the time. Everything in the room was outdated and dirty looking. Bathroom sink very hard to wash in due to having a glass shelve sticking out above it. Very noisy from above guests, lots of noise until past midnight. The gym if you can call it that was a huge joke. Crammed into a tiny space with not much equipment. I went in there but walked straight out again. Would not recommend anyone stay. Will not be booking with Best Western again.
