Hillingdon Prince  

It was driving distance to Reading town centre.

Mine was a last minute booking, but was only told on arrival that I had no shower (there actually was one, but had been taped up and not working). I chose the hotel as it had a gym, but couldn't use this as the gym had no shower either. Also, the advert said the room had satellite tv, but I actually only had 3 channels available.

Quiet and comfortable

Seemed to be only one person in the evening (Saturday) which meant I had to get out of bed when the extra coffee I'd asked for (for Sunday morning) eventually arrived.

overpriced, outdated, uncomfortable rooms.

Nice location.

Climbing stairs to 3rd floor. Having to change plugs to boli kettle & then put on hair dryer. Also everything fine & clean but gooey plug & socket board when changing applances in room 203 a bit disgusting.

Not much! But bed was comfy and good location.

Staff weren't helpful, didn't like the decor, only 3 channels on tv.

The location is excellent; walking distance to town centre (20 mins) and university (10 mins). Room was clean, useful microwave/fridge, nice atmosphere, breakfast was excellent.

Absence of shower gel/soap was irritating. No coffee sachets; asked for some but request was forgotten. Still good value for money though.

The breakfast was fabulous and restaurant service was excellent. Great value for money.

I was extremeely disappointed and I did not like that even though we booked 2 large family rooms 3 months in advance, we were not automatically given the largest family rooms. We were only given one large family room. Apparently we would have had to book directly with the hotel in order to ensure we received the size of rooms we required.The receptionist obliged by giving us another room but it was a bit damp, cold, and the floor in the bathroom was dirty, the ceiling was covered in mould.

Location. Good breakfast at the price: £45.00 b7b fo a twin room.Very good value

Tired rooms. Stained pillowcases.

Although the hotel appeared quite nice from the outside, once inside it looked dated and shabby. Similarlly the room we were given also looked dated and need of redecoration. The en-suit facilities looked like something out of the 70`S. Neither the bedroom nor the shower room/toilet were clean. There was a thick layer of dust on all the surfaces and the curtains. When we pulled back the bedsheets there was long dark hair in the bed. It was also difficult to get the curtains to cover the windows at night to block the light from to powerful floodlights right outside the windows.

The positives: The staff were friendly and happy to help. The carpark was spacious.

Service of the bar food was very slow. Very limited choice of food available. Service at breakfast was extremely slow. I only ordered scrambled eggs on toast and had to wait 20 mins!!! The room was dirty, the sheets were not clean. The bathroom and room decoration was very dated and only 5 channels on the TV. When in the bathroom I could hear the people in the room next door chatting. Location was ok for where I was travelling to for work.

Excellent hotel - perfect with kitchenet, superb for longer stay. Very clean, wireless internet is excellent should be class as 4 star. Well recommended definetely.

Location to Reading town centre and the University was ideal.

The reception staff was very friendly.and the rooms are comfortable and refresshing

Did struggle with the lift a bit
