Premier Inn Redditch North - A441

This hotel is perfectly located, right in the centre of Reading and close to many shops and restaurants. Liam on reception is very friendly and helpful. We’re looking forward to coming back again next year.

My mum and I stayed at Premier Inn Reading Central on Sat 29th November. I have stayed here a lot and have always found it to be a really lovely hotel. It is always reasonably priced considering it's prime location near the Oracle. We found a parking spot in the hotel car park and the staff let us stay here from 11am even though we couldn't check in til 3pm which was much appreciated. We were booked to eat out on the riverside in the evening but when we arrived we were really disappointed and left after 5 minutes. We ended up back at the hotel and luckily we were able to get a table so enjoyed happy hour cocktails and a really lovely meal. Special thanks to Dominika and Will who were so helpful and friendly to us. It was my mum's first visit and they ended up chatting to us like old friends. I'm so glad we came back to the hotel in the evening as it was such a lovely atmosphere and the food and drinks were great.

Easily the best Premier Inn I have stayed in. Warm welcoming team of staff. Lovely clean room and the Premier Plus room had some lovely extras. Would definitely recommend to others.

Stayed here for a trip to visit friends, great hotel, really conveniently located. Staff were very friendly and attentive. I would definitely stay here when I'm in the area again.

Stayed here with family. Lovely clean room with plenty of spare teas and coffee. Will definitely be booking here again.

Dominika was friendly, engaging and a pleasure to deal with thank you. Another welcome stay with the team. Always make you feel nothing is too much trouble

Nice modern hotel ,ideal for exploring town. Clean with friendly staff.parking at rear but limited spaces ,we got in early both day of our stay but if full literally across the raod is a multi story.,did meal deal all very nice but cut down menu so limited choice. If you want to eat there loads of venues by the canal or in town.

This hotel is really close to the Oracle shopping centre and transport links. It took me 10 minutes by foot from Reading station, so location wise, it’s perfect.

We stayed in a Premier Plus room which has a mini fridge and a coffee machine, including ironing facilities. The hotel is very quiet and staff are very friendly and attentive.

Food is served on site so we didn’t need to go out anywhere, but there are plenty of restaurants within 2-3 minutes walk away if you’d prefer to eat out. Personally, the food at the hotel was nice and good value - so it’s worth giving it a try as it can be cheaper than going elsewhere! The bar also had good deals on cocktails and other drinks.

This budget hotel offers what you would expect - reasonable sized, clean room, with decent sized bathroom, good supply of ho water, toiletries, towels, functional heating and good sized, wall mounted tv. Tea making facilities in the room , with, I was happy to see - enough ingredients to make several cups of tea or coffee. Also, you can get extra teabags, milk sachets etc from reception, you don't even need to ask, they're just laid out for you, Helpful. Efficient check in procedure, ample parking. All fine.
Breakfast is next door in the neighboring beefeater Inn - I think I paid £8.95 for breakfast. The room was £80 as I remember. Not cheap, but in the UK you will struggle to get much for less these days. The breakfast was fine, pretty good selection of continental and cooked options, adequate tea/coffee machines - not luxurious but reasonable value. I had breakfast at 9am on a Sunday morning, and it was pretty crowded - but not much to be done about that expect wait patiently while the people in front of you in the queue yakk endlessly about nothing in particular, while hovering over the bacon, tongs in hand, without actually serving themselves with any food. One has to wonder why people would choose to stand and chat interminably in the food line, rather than the more considerate option of getting their food, then returning to their table to continue with their meandering monologues. But - as we all know - people are strange, It's an invitation to be patient of course. Or in my case, an invitation to say (much more loudly than I'd intended) "Will you just get a move on!" which appeared to surprise the queue dawdlers in front of me, who seemed genuinely baffled to discover that there was anyone else in the restaurant who might also want to eat that day.
"Are you in a hurry mate?" he enquired. I should have replied with a more caustic "Well I was, but now that I have the opportunity to eavesdrop on your scintillating anecdote about your dog's flea treatment - I'm going to cancel all my appointments"
But of course, I didn't. I just muttered "Yes, I am". Fortunately they selected their choice of bacon and sausages without further prevarication.
I could also have done without the jingly Christmas music at 9 in the morning, but it was the 16th of November, with just under 5 weeks to go - so what can you do?

I'm getting old. I'm aware of that. Saying things out loud, which would perhaps be better a) not said at all or b) quietly under one's breath maybe wiser choices.
But age, as we know, does not always come with wisdom.

My partner and I stayed at the Premier Inn in Reading for two nights, and we were genuinely impressed. The location is ideall, right opposite The Oracle shopping centre and only a 10-minute walk to the train station. Getting to London was a breeze, with just a 23-minute train ride to Paddington.
From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel completely at ease. Everyone was warm and welcoming, and their friendly approach really stood out. In the evenings, Domi and Sarka were absolutely fantastic, they couldn’t do enough for us. Their conversations felt so natural, like we’d known them for years, and it was lovely to see them treating other guests with the same kindness.
The hotel itself was spotless, quiet, and very comfortable, everything you’d hope for in a relaxing stay. We’ll definitely be returning and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Reading.

Excellent service the best premier inn I’ve stayed in very clean great food value for money and best of all fantastic staff

Had a really good visit. Room was spotlessly clean. Staff were great, girls making cocktails were very friendly as were staff at breakfast and breakfast was awesome by the way.

We have stayed at quite a few Premier Inns around the country, however this has to be the worst. When we checked in, the receptionist acted like she wanted rid of us. We were asked if we would like to eat in the Beefeater that evening and again at breakfast. No mention of the Meal Deal so we ended up paying more. We didn't know the door card was supposed to be inserted into a slot near the door, so we had no electric, we weren't given the Wifi code, all of which would have saved time had we been told about it in the first instance. We won't be staying there again.

Lovely staff, issue activating room card dealt with quickly
Location ideal for city centre but still out of the way.
10-15 mins walk to station, I had to use Google maps to find route as it is far side of city centre
All breakfast items plentiful and tasty and excellent choice/variety

Great stay at this hotel. Good location, just off the motorway and close to centre. Staff was really friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Restaurant next door was busy but good service. Food was good and at a good price. Would definitely stay again here.

Despite not expecting more than a standard PI experience and a decent night’s sleep, the staff at this hotel made it a really great stay. They were all incredibly upbeat, kind and helpful, giving a truly warm and welcoming feel.

The room was great - quiet, comfortable and dark at night. I ate in the restaurant - food fine and the staff again helpful and positive.

Made a brief stop in Reading relaxing and homely - exactly what I wanted.

What a lovely Stay I had at Premier Inn Reading Central Hotel. The staff were exceptional and breakfast really great. Keep up the great work team!

Sadly the drain problem was not sorted and rooms smelt of sewerage. Possibly better if we were warned of this before paying for our stay

I would definitely visit Reading again, but I wouldn’t stay at this hotel next time. The room I was given (102) was too close to the road and quite noisy. Considering the price - £170 per night, it felt overpriced and not worth the money. The receptionists were very polite, but the overall room arrangement was disappointing.

The staff were lovely after a four hour drive it was nice to be welcomed with a smile from the nice guy on reception. The room was ok, a little dusty in but overall comfy. The breakfast however was awful! The coffee tasted horrible so I changed to a pot of tea. Most of the teapots were dirty and when I thought I'd found a clean one .. Well the picture says it all! That was the scum from inside the teapot floating on top
The mushrooms were covered in dirt and grit and clearly hadn't been washed. The beans were watered down and the rest of the food, apart from the sausages, tasted stale and cold. The parking was also an issue but I know that's down the roadworks and not the hotels fault.
