Good Hotel
I stayed for a night at this hotel. The location is perfect - its just a 5 minute walk from reading station and its right beside the shopping complex called Oracle and grocery stores are also nearby. The staff were very accomodating and helpful. I needed a plug that would work with my US laptop and the staff helped me with that. Also this hotel offers breakfast which is really good. The hotel room was nice and clean, the bed was a little too soft for my comfort (maybe some improvement is needed here), but that's only a minor negative. Overall I am very pleased and would definately choose this hotel for my next trip to Reading

Mercure George, Reading, UK
Typical, old English hotel. GOOD: In this case, 'old' is good as the building is interesting, historical and well-maintained (not old and run down). Located on the downtown pedestrianized street near restaurants, stores, mall. Two blocks from train station. Excellent access to London-Heathrow via RailAir[@] bus. Internet isn't free but works well. Friendly, helpful staff.BAD: No elevator. Rooms are smallish but not tiny. No safe in room for valuables. If you need modern, this isn't it.SUMMARY: Will gladly stay there again.

I arrived late and left early
I arrived late and left early so impressions are limited but all positive. Easy to get to, just 5 minutes walk from Reading railway station. Quick, efficient check-in. Room well equipped, and quiet despite facing the main road and pedestrian precinct.

Very nice and charming hotel,
Very nice and charming hotel, with occasionally uneven floors typical of 16th century buildings! Excellent location 5 minutes walk from the train station very close to the Oracle shopping outlet and cinema (and lots of pubs!) would definitely recommend and will be making a repeat visit next time I'm in the area.
