Crowne Plaza Reading

Hotel is nice, but the rooms are tired. Wallpaper in a lot of rooms is starting to peel away, some pieces have even been patched over. Carpets are also tired, looks very 80's - 90's.. and could really do with a make over, although the bed is good and the bathroom is very good too.

Nice looking, sophisticated decor with a well furnished room. It's 15 min walk to the station with the bags. For a stop off by train and then continuing by train, it worked pretty well. Breakfast was a very good buffet and made it the whole stay much better value.

Convenient 15 minute walk from Reading Station and well located for us as we had a reservation that evening at a restaurant that was another 10-minute's walk across the river further out of town. Friendly staff, comfortable room and a leisure facility with a small, but adequate pool, sauna, and steam room, plus a gym too, although we didn't use the latter. Nice to have a fridge you could put things in. I like to buy a pint of milk to have with hot drinks.

Nicely laid out and very clean. Good location - 20 mins walk to centre. Great breakfast with lots of choice.

I love this hotel it was clean, the location was great especially because the river thames was situated at the back of the property, and you were able to walk along the Thames and the canals after breakfast, or any time you wanted throughout the day. The rooms were cleaned every day if you required it or whenever you require it without paying an extra fee. The staff are very welcoming, always smiling always making you feel at home and welcome when you walk through the door and when you attend breakfast in the mornings. Breakfast was amazing, and even though breakfast was a buffet you are able to order your breakfast how you want it and different things off the breakfast menu that may not be in the buffet which I found excellent.
