Ibis Reading Centre has a very convenient location. We just walked to the Reading Museum, the Abbey Ruins and the riverside for afternoon tea.

I recently stayed at this hotel and had a fantastic experience. The location is perfect, just a short walk from the subway station, making it incredibly convenient for exploring the city. The surrounding area is vibrant and full of life, with plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. The hotel itself is exceptionally clean and well-maintained. My room was spotless, and the housekeeping staff did an excellent job throughout my stay. The amenities were top-notch, and I appreciated the attention to detail in the design and comfort of the space. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a comfortable stay in a great location. I will definitely return on my next visit!

Good location and very central. However, the facilities are quite basic for the price you pay. Breakfast was basic and I'd go out for breakfast next time.

My stay at the Ibis Hotel in Reading was okay. The amenities were standard and met the basic needs. The biggest issue was the shower. The water temperature kept switching between very hot and cold every few minutes, which made it uncomfortable to use. On a positive note, the front desk staff were excellent. Friendly, responsive, and very helpful, definitely the highlight of the stay. Overall, an average experience with great staff but some room for improvement in facilities.
