Pros: Staff fabulous very helpful and friendly. Service great. Very clean rooms. Well stocked bar. Great location for trains to London
Cons: Maybe add a little more lighting to the rooms.. I know the Mal has the dark ambience feel but I needed more light. Think the windows need triple glazing as the station and outside noise finishes approx 2am restarts 5am Parking destination needs to be highlighted better on the website as you can’t park and drop off your bags

7,3 Good
Pros: I loved the style and theme of the hotel - Luxury throughtout
Cons: It would have been nice to have a later check out and to have water availabe in the room - not part of the mini bar and a few more toiletries& extras such as dressing gown. Paid extra for the Superior Double Room but couldnt really see what I was paying for as we ended up staying in one of the rooms with disability asscess. This meant the room was bigger by deafult because of its purpose

7,2 Good
Pros: The staff were very welcoming and friendly. The room was lovely and beautifully comfortable. Very relaxing decor throughout.
Cons: The difficulty and time we had getting there and finding the hotel would prevent me from returning. We rang the hotel all morning for directions and parking availability but the phone was not answered. The hotel was very very warm and felt the mini bar facility of having to go down to reception seemed rather tacky. Disappointed if comparing with a stay at any Hotel du Vin.
7,2 Good
Pros: The rooms was excellent as were the facilities in the hotel. The only disappointment was the dinner (see below).
Cons: The main courses were not as good as we expected. The starters were terrific, a little large if anything, which led us to believe that the main course would be similar. Very disappointed with the main course. My partner expected more than one small potato.

Pros: Gorgeous hotel! Lovely room! Loads of extra amities but some things were hard to work. Gorgeous bathroom, comfiest bed I’ve ever slept in and a massive wardrobe, was a shame to only stay there one night! Great location as we were attending Reading Festival and was only a 20 minute walk from the site. Great facilities from the look of them. Didn’t get a chance to check the range of vegetarian and vegan options in the restaurant.

Pros: We stayed in a king suite for the night and it really exceeded our expectations of what to expect. There was one down point and that was that the elevator had broken down, however while we were sat at dinner, one of the senior members of staff came to us and apologised for the inconvenience, we told him to not worry about it, we were really grateful for this personal touch. He subsequently came back later on and again apologised to us again but also to inform us the elevator was now fixed. The bathroom in the suite was truly amazing. And the bed was really nice.

Pros: Gorgeous hotel! Lovely room! Loads of extra amities but some things were hard to work. Gorgeous bathroom, comfiest bed I’ve ever slept in and a massive wardrobe, was a shame to only stay there one night! Great location as we were attending Reading Festival and was only a 20 minute walk from the site. Great facilities from the look of them. Didn’t get a chance to check the range of vegetarian and vegan options in the restaurant.
Cons: Some facilities were hard to work - like the TV and CD player - couldn’t change the temperature on the shower and bath kept running all night - also wasn’t clear what was complimentary for example coffee and snacks - there was a mini bar area but these were right about it. Could have benefited from an introduction pack. On my entry to reception the staff seem judgemental and gave me a look like I was “lost” as if I didn’t have a reservation or couldn’t afford to stay there. I do have an alternative look but prepaid for this room months in advance. There was a charge of £30/hr to check in early if a room was available - was also told the wrong room number when checking in, it was different when I came to collect my keys. Was a tad expensive but was our only option for Reading Festival, which also meant we didn’t spend much time in the hotel to take advantage of the facilities which might have made the price worth it.

6,3 Good
Pros: Room & style of hotel in general
Cons: Like majority of guests who booked this stylish hotel, we were there for the Reading festival, but did not fancy the experience of camping. arrived 10am but unable to check in until after 3pm, by which time Festival would have been in full swing. Returned to hotel after midnight, like most guests, who had watched the closing act of the festival. Only one staff member on reception to check in approx 30 rooms, plus run the bar alone. He was running between floorsm as bar is downstairs. Hotel advsertises as 24 hour room service, but as we got back very hungary after festival, we were told the kitchen was closed. Strange how the hotel was aware of the Reading festival dates, so therefore almost doubled cost of normal stay, yet conveniently forgot about it when just one poor member of staff was appointed to run both bar & reception.
2,9 Mediocre
Pros: Leaving the hotel
Cons: Incompetent staff. Hotel's deceitful policy re guest parking facilities. Poor housekeeping standards. Very poor standard of service. At check in I was asked 3 times in 3 minutes if I had stayed at the hotel before. Lying concierge at front desk.started off badly then got worse.

6,3 Good
Pros: Nice clean hotel.
Cons: When paying this sort of price you would expect a way of controlling temperature in the bedroom as even lower priced hotels do have air con. Unfortunately it was one of the hottest nights of the year and with no air con it was unbearably hot in the room, a fan was provided but it was pretty unhelpful. Limited sleep meant it was not the best experience. We were discouraged from using the car park on arrival and advised we needed to go to a pay and display. When I complained this was not possible as signs into the city advised they were full suddenly a space was available in the car park, it seemed to be if the face fits e.g you drive a suitable car you can have a space.
10,0 Excellent
Pros: Staff are all friendly Clean place
Cons: My room card cannot enter the side gate to the carpark
3,8 Mediocre
Pros: Kerb appeal. But that is where it ends.
Cons: Front of house poorly informed and inadequately trained. The room wasn't as advertised (and paid for...), rather was nothing short of a budget chain motel offering, located across a car park outside of the main building. The room itself was far too small and the layout poor, and the bathroom grotty with a door that didn't actually close. And drinks in the bar ridiculously priced.
With a stay at The Roseate Reading in Reading (Reading City Centre), you'll be a 3-minute drive from Reading Abbey Ruins and 7 minutes from Madejski Stadium. Featured amenities include complimentary wired Internet access, express check-in, and express check-out. This hotel has 3 meeting rooms available for events.

Yes, we've got a choice town-centre location, but it's what's inside our hotel that makes all the difference. ibis Reading Centre offers all the necessities with no fussy frills, so from a hearty breakfast spread to free fibre Wi-Fi, a 24hr snack bar to Sweet Beds in every room, you'll enjoy all the mod cons at room rates that'll keep your trip's budget firmly on track.

Pros: The location was good, The only member of staff I saw was friendly and attentive.
Cons: No view out of the window just a brick wall, room not cleaned properly, when towels were changed no hand towels came back. Only a few coat hangers and these were broken. I felt that the hotel was only up to Student standard and there is nothing wrong with that, after all it is a university town. However maybe it should be advertised as that. I felt that I paid a Hotel price and didn't get what I paid for. I liked the theme of the Hotel that's why I booked it sad to say it didn't live up to that.

Pros: Leaving in the morning.
Cons: Stayed here for the Reading festival, we were taken to our room when we returned from the festival, it wasn't in the hotel, it was 2 buildings down the road, an overspill hotel I guess you'd call it, dirty carpet, curtains that didn't fit, musty smell, £112 for this dump of a room, what a disgrace, never ever again, would suggest to stay somewhere else,

Pros: Hotel is conveniently located at the heart of Reading with everything at hand. The staff was nice and helpful.

6,3 Good
Pros: The staff. Calin, the receptionist was very polite and compensated somehow the other shortages
Cons: No elevator, smells as mold, dirty doors and handles. Two taps in bathroom, one with very hot water, the other one with cold water - brushing teeth or shaving is a painful challenge. A general feeling of a very old building which was not properly refurbished for decades. No wireless ! -at least in room 202, even you can connect to the wifi with the password it is so slow that is practically nonexistent (it loaded the google search main page in 3 minutes). Far below 4 stars, at least for someone coming from continental Europe and nothing in common with the Mercure brand.
6,3 Good
Pros: Good location and good food in the bar. The only reason I would think to return is the lovely young Indian guy behind the bar, he made my experience. ( also location, couldn’t get closer to town)
Cons: When we went into our hotel room I always do the general checks. Bath- has other people hairs in it (pubes). The toilet seat was not clean and the carpet was definitely NOT hovered and crumbs and fluff all over it. The drinks were pricey but was expected, lady behind reception could at least try and smile.

Pros: Breakfast very good. Fresh fruiit and hot meal on request - no complaints. Very central and my room was not affected by road noise. However noisy neighbour, staff did sort this out.
Cons: Noisy neighbour. No air con, which may stop me returning to this hotel. Had to pay for an upgrade - not really appropriate, as room allocated was tiny, poor bed and uneven floor that was a hazard. There was also a hiden step into the bathroom that I tripped on

Pros: The bed was so comfy, every night we got a good sleep. We had the window open every night but there wasn't any noise from the local area. The hosts were incredibly friendly and hospitable which made the experience of staying at the Crescent Hotel a pleasure. They offered a cooked breakfast in the morning which the portion was good and the breakfast itself was fantastic. Taxi's from the hotel were easy but the hotel is only a 15-20 minute walk to the centre (it was 32 degrees upon our visit so opted for a taxi), the taxi from the hotel to the centre on bank holiday weekend was only £7. There is a vending machine in the foyer area which was fine but equally the tap water tasted ok for drinking. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Pros: Free onsite parking and that is all.
Cons: Horrible state this place is in mould everywhere on the walls the in the corridor all the wall paper is falling or torn off and the English breakfast was horrible because it was served ice cold!!!. I will not recommend this place for the same price we could have gotten a better place!

Pros: I liked nothing about "Guest House Paradiso", and yet this review still rates this hell hole as 2.5, ridiculous.
Cons: This hotel, if you can call it that, was undoubtedly the dirtiest, unhygienic place I have ever stayed. The smell in the room was putrid, shower was broken and tiling dirty and mouldy. The hand basin unit, I believe had been made by a failed woodworking student, just looked sad. The carpet in bedroom was heavily stained, and the room contained broken furniture, some of which was held together with sticky tape! The stairwell has a dangerous and illegal door at the top of the stairs, which believe it or not opens toward you as you climb the stairs, an accident just waiting to happen.

Cons: Walls are paper thin throughout hotel so you can hear every door slam, other people talking and tv’s. bathroom was okay, could do with some touch ups and cracked tile flooring and loose tiles, also shower head was rubbish so baths were easier.

Cons: The entire hotel could do with a deep clean and refurbishing. Obviously there will be wear and tear over time but in our room the floor tile in the bathroom one was loose, the shower didn't work properly and the pressure was so low (kept turning itself off if I tried to change the temperature or touch any of the dials), the wallpaper was peeling off of the wall, dust piled up on the skirting boards, the light switches havent been put on the wall straight, the lightbulbs on the bed lights were different colours (one was warm and the other cold). It is just small attention to detail that would really improve the place.
