Our daughter lives in Reading and so we have used the hotel many times because it's so close to Reading University (where she studied) as well as being very near the town centre. For location alone, I would highly recommend this hotel - but it is also very reasonably priced and serves a good full breakfast. We find the staff... More

I've stayed in this hotel nearly ten times over the last few years and seen it go through a number of changes. The name itself changed a few years back also. I always come down with a group of mates for the students union or a night out in town. The location is perfect as it's close to the university... More

The first hotel I've ever stayed in where they provide microwaves AND fridges in the room and provide dinner plates and cutlery ha ha . The building itself look a smidge dated but the rooms very clean and spacious, and the staff were really helpful. Excellent off road secure parking, some excellent low price restaurants less than a 5 min... More

Me and my best mates went on a night out in reading for the bank holiday. We got a 3 bedroom room for great value here. We were delighted and when we turned up there was plenty of free parking, we were only 15 mins walk from reading town centre. The room was clean and tidy and there was even... More

Me and a mate decided to stay here as we were having a work function in Reading that night. We chose a twin room. It was cheap, clean with plenty of free parking and walking distance to the centre of Reading. Check in was quick with no hassle. They let us check in early for no extra charge. I will... More

Hotel is not in a good area of Reading I thought. I tried to walk to the centre and after 15mins of walking past a poor area of town (too many hoodies for my liking hanging around) I reached a tesco metro where I bought my dinner, which i was allowed to microwave in the room. Being given the ability... More

Thank you for writing a review about our hotel. We are just a 10-15 minute walk to the town but also there is a bus stop at the end of the road that runs every 5 minutes into the town centre and train station. It sounds as if you took a long route if you found Tesco express; if you... More

We decided to book the Hillingdon as were moving to Reading so decided to stay here until we found somewhere to live. As we booked for a week we got a special rate and this was by far one of the best deals we found online. For the price the room was very good, although a bit of a squeeze... More

Hi, Thank you for writing us such a nice honest review it is much appreciated. Our studio rooms are very popular for guests wish to stay longer than just a few nights, being able to cook is always an advantage. Also our studio rates are very low, it would be very hard to beat these prices in Reading. Glad you... More

I stayed overnight after a shattering day at work in the Reading area, because I was working there the next day as well. The evening shift, Rena I think her name was and a lovely young African man could not have been more welcoming and friendly. He even carried my bag to my room for me which was much appreciated....
