Hôtels de charme à Reading

« Reservamos um período de 5 dias, incluindo o Natal pois buscávamos um lugar confortável e calmo. À princípio nos colocaram na torre número 6 no apartamento 6B, porém era extremamente barulhento. O piso rangia demais. O apartamento é amplo. estava bem limpo e a equipe parece ser bem profissional, existe também um segurança que fica no estacionamento, porém esse detalhe com o piso e a acústica deixou a desejar. Nos moveram para o andar de cima, 6C, para tentar amenizar o problema do barulho, porém quando outros hóspedes entraram no 6B, era possível ouvir a TV, a conversa, o piso, tudo! Então se vc for alguém que precisa de tranquilidade e um pouco de silêncio pra trabalhar, busque outro local. P-S: A TV não é smart e quase não tem opções de canais, a máquina de lavar louça não funcionava. Acho que por £100 a diária, poderiam melhorar esses aspectos!  »

« 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. »
