Ibis Reading Centre

“Great hotel, reasonably priced, central location.”

Clean, comfortable centrally located hotel in Reading, less than five minutes' walk from the railway station. So convenient.

Clean, comfortable centrally located hotel in Reading, less than five minutes' walk from the railway station. So convenient. Delicious buffet breakfast, and the entire cooked breakfast was gluten free. Staff friendly and helpful. Very close to some great stores, such as M&S and John Lewis. Like many large town and cities the centre of Reading isn't a great place to be an unaccompanied female at night (not the hotel's fault!) but the hotel is a great place to retreat to. Outside noise contained by shutting the windows. The hotel serve pizzas 24 hours a day, which would be good for families, and there is a little bar downstairs, and Novotel just next-door. This was my second visit and I hope to stay there again later this year.

“It’s budget but comfortable!”

For a budget hotel, you can’t complain. It’s clean, has a comfortable bed, decent shower and enough room for your luggage! It’s nothing special but when you just need somewhere to sleep between work it’s ideal. Staff were lovely, nice sofa area to do some work, good coffee and good breakfast! I’m… lisää

“There are better options”

Great location near to the station and very good buffet breakfast. First room we were given had a bed with loose legs that squeaked, second room was a disabled room meaning it was larger with a larger walk in shower pod. Beds were ok. TV antiquated. Aircon didn't work so room very hot. Shower very … lisää

Great location near to the station and very good buffet breakfast. First room we were given had a bed with loose legs that squeaked, second room was a disabled room meaning it was larger with a larger walk in shower pod. Beds were ok. TV antiquated. Aircon didn't work so room very hot. Shower very slippery unless a towel was laid down as no bathmat available. We were charged twice although reception did start to reverse that. We stay in Reading a few times a year and if you don't need easy access to the station then there are better places for the same sort of price

“Close to the railway station and town centre.”

This hotel is very central to Reading and because it's such a tall building is easy to find. It's also close to the railway station so is good if like us, you are moving on.

This hotel is very central to Reading and because it's such a tall building is easy to find. It's also close to the railway station so is good if like us, you are moving on. However, the problem with Ibis Hotels now is the horrible black and red decor and over-casual furniture which gives the place a dark and fairly scruffy feel. Our room was in the same dark colour and was small and cramped. The shower was what I would only describe as a large cabin which was all plastic with dark green sink - again pretty unpleasant - especially as the sink had become a discoloured brown colour near the plug hole. The breakfasts were okay and there was a good range to choose from though some of the hot food got a little dry from being kept warm. I have to say however it was excellent value because it only cost £8 if you booked it the night before and being a buffet it was unlimited. The coffee was also good. What I want to add is that ALL the staff were really nice. They were friendly and helpful and took a lot of trouble to ensure any information or help we needed was available. Therefore I would recommend this hotel if you can cope with the general decor, because it is good value and has lovely staff.
