Top Museum of English Rural Life Hotel Reviews

ibis Reading Centre

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was conveniently located near the bus station,"

Sure Hotel by Best Western Reading

8/10 Good

"Excellent for the price! The only issues we had were that the breakfast wasn't great (and quite expensive for what it was), and the bathroom in our room smelt really bad (probably due to lack of windows). But for how cheap it was we were very happy with our stay - good location, comfy bed, helpful staff!"

Village Hotel Reading

10/10 Excellent

"Village hotel is a beautiful modern place on the Thames river bank were you can take a boat trip from outside garden.There's plenty of car park spaces. The room was clean with hairdryer iron and ironing board coffee machine with coffee provided soap towels and 50 inch TV .The staff were friendly and helpful and the food was very good plenty of choices for breakfast and other meals . There is gym swimming pool and hot tub also 7 Large TV Screens in the bar Iwould definitely recommend this place"

Malmaison Reading

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, comfortable and quiet! Everything I needed. The shower head was a bit big for the shower but was easily navigated. The most challenging part was the lack of parking or a drop off area to unload/load bags. Overall, a very positive experience and excellent location."

Garner Reading City Centre by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The accessible twin room was perfect for travelling with my Mum who has limited mobility. It was the first (only?) room on the ground floor. It was spacious and good to have rails by the walk-in shower and toilet. Although my Mum uses a walking stick and not a wheelchair we could see it being perfect for someone who does. We liked the little table and chairs, The hotel is within a short walk from restaurants and shops. The staff on reception were friendly."
