Bathroom had no heated towel rails. Would of liked to have opened a window slightly for some air. Understanding the reason for this. We were on 2nd level. Would of liked veggie sausage with breakfast . Did ask but bit late when you have plated up. Was offered However to ask the chef. Warm plates would help. Some of food not hot enough.

Unfortunately the aircon in our room only blew warm air and we could not open windows so got quite stuffy. Plus breakfast was a bit overpriced at £15 each!

Our shower was blocked and they didn’t have maintence for the weekend. They offered to move us but we had moved twice times previously as we had booked a room with a bath which they hadn’t put us in, they moved us to a room with a bath which didn’t have a bath so we we’re moved to another room. This room had a blocked shower which was disappointing. The staff didn’t tell us on arrival about the discounted parking and it was by chance when talking to someone they mentioned you could get £6 per night at the Qpark so we moved our car and got the discount for the two nights we stayed.

Parking was not available at the hotel, but in a Q- park two blocks away. Not a real problem bur did add £16 to the cost of the stay.
Staff were very good, breakfast excellent. Easy to find and very central to Reading town centre and the conference venue I was attanding the following day.
