Nice hotel, really helpful reception staff. The room was cold but the reception ladies helped me suss the heating. The TV kept cutting out every few minutes. Great breakfast. If you want a big night out, stay here on a Saturday night as you can check out at 3pm. If you have an early start I would avoid as the internal noise of people coming in late and banging doors/street noise is loud.

Two lifts out of three not working. Remaining one had no light except the glow from the control panel. We were floor 9. Lift took us to 4, then 13, then 10, then 4, then basement, and back to ground floor. My wife has claustrophobia and does not like small dark enclosed spaces. Helpful staff led us through to next-door Ibis where lifts were working and illuminated, and gave us a card to use them. Price of Snickers bar and similar items is £2.49. Costs 99p in small store just along the road. Room was OK when we finally got to it, but initial experience puts us off using Novotel again.

Everything has a price! The characteristic of the UK is that everything costs money, and there is nothing wrong with it except that it is expensive! Commercialization is everywhere. I forgot to bring an adapter, so I asked the hotel front desk to borrow one. The reply I got still rings in my ears: we don’t have adapters to rent, but we have adapters to sell!

Very convenient, very close to the commercial street, close to Reading Railway Station, you can walk through the station square, walk to the Thames River, and feel quiet and leisure in the beautiful scenery of the breeze and sunshine. The hotel is soundproofed, the bedding is clean, comfortable and tidy, and the breakfast is great.

**3-Star Review for voco Hotel** I recently stayed at a voco hotel and had a mixed experience. The hotel has a modern and vibrant atmosphere that I really enjoyed upon arrival. The décor is stylish, and the overall ambiance is inviting. The staff were friendly and helpful, ensuring a warm welcome during check-in. However, there were a few areas that could use improvement. While the room was clean and well-appointed, I found it to be smaller than I expected, which made it a bit cramped for two guests. Additionally, I encountered some minor issues with the amenities; for instance, the Wi-Fi was somewhat unreliable at times, which was frustrating during my stay. The hotel's location was decent, with several restaurants and attractions within walking distance, but it wasn't as central as I had hoped. Overall, voco has a great concept with its focus on sustainability and unique twists, but a few tweaks could enhance the overall experience. I would consider staying again, but with slightly lower expectations.

Perfect for me as it’s right across from the office but probably not so great if you wanted to be in the city centre although it’s only an £8 taxi ride or £2 bus ride. Opposite a Beefeater which was handy but I would prefer an on-site bar and restaurant. Felt a bit uncomfortable on check-in to be asked if I was a smoker (I’m not) and if anyone would be joining me later 😳. Didn’t like the bed being made up with sheets, blanket and counter pane as it’s quite uncomfortable particularly on one of the hottest days of the year although the mobile air conditioning unit helped (first time I’ve had sheets and blankets for over 30 years since the day I got married despite extensive business (weekly) and leisure travel (4-6 times a year)). Hotel was very clean and the bathroom was well equipped. A bottle of water would have been a welcome addition to the room particularly in such hot weather. Not sure who to recommend the hotel to as it’s neither a corporate hotel with all the amenities or a home from home. Breakfast was on offer for an additional £15 and I decided to wait until I checked in to see. As I wanted to be in the office for 8am and there was no menu available, times of service or visibility of a dining room, other facilities or even other guests, I decided it may be too intimate and opted for a cold sandwich I had stored in the office fridge ‘just in case’. Was similarly priced to the executive room I had in the Novotel last week which had a full buffet breakfast included.

Once the house has been moved in, no one will clean it anymore. I throw rubbish into the trash can turning downstairs. The environment is good. The door is a small tributary of the Thames. The kitchen can cook by myself. It's not too small about 35 square meters. It's just me. No one changed the sheets after staying for more than ten days. It's more like a short-term rental house.

We reserved a 5-day period, including Christmas, because we were looking for a comfortable and quiet place. They first placed us in the 6th tower in the apartment 6B, but it was extremely noisy. The apartment is wide, was well clean and the team seems to be well professional, there is also a safety that is staying in the parking, but this detail with the floor and acoustics left unwanted. They moved us upstairs, 6C, to try to threaten the noise problem, but when other guests entered 6B, it was possible to hear TV, conversation, floor, everything! So if you are someone who needs quiet and a little silence to work, find another place. P-S: TV is not smart and almost no channel options, the washing machine wasn't working. I think that for £100 a day, they could improve these aspects!

The environment is awesome, food (breakfast) is good and happy hours at night time in lobby, I like gym room here, and there are two supermarkets nearby, that is so convenience and nice gathering place with friends and family.

Located in the city center, a five-minute walk from the train station, there are many surrounding living facilities. The rooms are clean and well-equipped and cleaned once a week. There is no air conditioner and the temperature in Britain has been high recently, which is a bit difficult to receive. In addition, the surrounding bars were full of enthusiasm and it was not until the middle of the night that they could be quiet.
