We booked this accommodation for the weekend of the Reading Festival. it was booked through laterooms.com back in September 2010. However, on arrival, it transpired that our room had been booked to someone else. Initially there was a suggestion from the owner that our booking had been cancelled a few days before, but that was definitely not the case and... More

I recently made a trip with a few friend to Reading, England for the annual music festival. We decided camping wouldn't be ideal and decided for a small family owned hotel/bed and breakfast. The Crown Hill Lodge was perfect. The service was immaculate and our hosts dealt were as inviting as anyone I've ever met. The rooms aren't anything amazing... More

I stayed here at the beginning of February on one of the coldest days of the year.....2 degrees when I arrived at 13.00. I received a warm welcome from one of the proprietors and was shown to my room which was clean and adequate, if somewhat sparse and austere. The coldness of the room was the first thing that hit...

The owner is very courteous and pleasant but the breakfast staff clueless! Our double room was about right for the price (we paid £75) but the continental breakfast was appalling. For this price I expected filtered coffee and the croissants to be decent. No, the coffee they tried to serve me was instant and when I questioned the staff she... More

Stayed here for over 6 months and saw a lot of changes, new beds, bedding decor. Big safe car park, breakfast was good and cooked to order. Manager and his wife very welcoming and could not do enough to help. Best pup in Reading at the bottom of the road. Bonus.

The TV never worked - I could not get reception for most of the channels. The hotel claimed they had free wireless but I could never access it and the staff availabe when I... More
