ibis Reading Centre

You don’t need to bring an alarm clock with you- the trash trucks come to collect trash sharp at 6 o’clock in every morning. However, still a good place to stay.

Amazing hotel ..hard to believe it's in city centre@ so quiet and best night's sleep for many months. Such helpful and cheery staff who go and above to assist you with queries. Room is big and a large shower which is unusual. Cleanliness is extremely high standard. I will most certainly be recommending this hotel and, without hesitation, be staying here again. Thank you to you all.

Location is perfect for access to train station & town, it was clean & great value for what we needed.

The location was very good, close to Reading train station and the bus stop for the RailAir bus to and from Heathrow. I could walk from the bus stop to the hotel even with a large suitcase and other bags. The hotel is on one of the main streets in Reading, so there is easy access to shopping and restaurants. During my stay my room was very quiet-I didn't hear any noise from other guest rooms or from the street outside. The room was a good size, with a desk that had enough room to use my laptop and tablet. There are power and USB sockets in good locations which allowed me to use and charge my electronic devices. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was clean. The shower was good with good temperature control and water flow. Breakfast was included in my booking and was very good, with a buffet that had a large variety of hot and cold food items. All of staff from the front desk, to the breakfast staff and housekeepers were very friendly and helpful. Tamas Racz the Front Office Manager was particularly helpful - I had problems with the card-key in the lift and to enter my room. Tamas came with me in the lift and to my room to check the problem. It turned out it was partly user error on my part. I would recommend this hotel, for a stay in Reading particularly if you are travelling by public transport.

The big stand-out about Ibis in Reading are the staff. They are helpful, efficient and friendly. A particular call out goes to Marta, who greeted me, a windswept half drowned traveler battered by Storm Bert at checkin. She was very kind, helpful and generous with her time. Thank you Marta, and thank you to all the other staff who contributed to my stay. On more mundane notes. The room was well laid out and comfortable, everything was nice and clean. The location is excellent for the station, buses and town centre and the views from the 14th floor are wonderful.
