Hotel 1843 Reading

Location very good, lovely downstairs, good bar, fun cocktails. Enjoyed our evening. Bed was comfy, bathroom clean, coffee in room towels lovely.

Sadly I had a very loud snorer in next room, walls so thin I could not sleep. Having informed staff I was disappointed not to be moved. Hotel was quiet otherwise. Breakfast disappointing I did not bother second day.

The location to London Road university campus, City Centre and railway station.

Extremely dirty (health risk) and overpriced property.

Номер (тримісний) досить великий, два вікна, все нове, отель було нескладно знайти, атмосферне приміщення для сніданку

Номер на третьому поверсі, з валізами може бути незручно дістатися. Парковки немає, і ми не зрозуміли, як скористатися знижкою від отелю при оплаті міської парковки.

Good location

The cleanliness of the property needs a lot of work.

Location was good

It was dirty, i asked if it could be cleaned the day i arrived but still nothing till 2nd day. Bathroom door and door handle dirty. Needed a deep clean. Staff are friendly but can't speak English. Was a good location just super dissapointing as needed a good clean and bedding , towels, chair etc had stains on too. Such a pity

The first room I had assigned was directed in a way that I would have had kitchen smells in the room. I asked to change to the other side and staff was doing their best to accommodate my wishes which was really nice! I got the side I wished and was very comfortable there. The restaurant and bar in the ground floor makes it easy to get dinner without going out. This is very much appreciated when travelling for work and being tired after a full day. All in all, service and staff friendliness was excellent.

it is an old building and of course the walls are not as well insulated as in new ones, so you could hear the neighbours but everyone generally respected the resting times, so no complaints here.

No TV remote control And no tea bags in room

Location.

Bed was very uncomfortable.

Perfect city centre bolt hole

Very beautiful foyer and library - but only open at breakfast timings

Small rooms and hardly much space to walk in the room- felt claustrophobic.

Locstion good, bteakfast good

All ok for weekend rice

3 beds to choose from and loads of space.

Sehr zentral gelegen, 10 min. Fußweg vom Bahnhof, 3 min. zum Zentrum/Einkaufen. Helllhörig, Matratze etwas durchgelegen, für eine Nacht ok.

Nice staff. Good location

One of the window doesn't lock. Hence unsafe. The rug is dirty. Needs deep clean.

Good location

Not clean, toilet was disgusting on arrival and the bed had black hairs over the sheets. The mattress was thin with only a sheet covering it and no mattress protector. Really disappointing, trying to contact for compensation but no answer!

Staff nice and helpful.

Lots of noise from other rooms, walls thin.

Lovely bar good drink selection and food was good - we had some chicken wings- the hotel area maybe needs a refurb as a bit tired looking but was clean and comfortable

Hotel rooms need some loving but still cosy and clean

Hotel was very accommodating and rooms were clean and comfortable. Great value for money

To be honest for the price it is fab

Location good lots of coffee and milk in your room hotel quite and good atmosphere in the bar landlady very helpful and bar staff polite

Great stay - everything worked well.

Room was a little noisy as it was middle of the corridor by a fire door.

Central Location friendly helpful staff Felt safe as a solo traveler

Nothing it was just what I needed

Stayed here for 6 nights and had a great experience. The housekeeping team did an excellent job — the room was always clean, tidy, and well-maintained every day. Fresh towels and amenities were consistently restocked without needing to ask. Special shout out to Prithvi for the great work and attention to detail. Really appreciate the effort and consistency — it made my stay very comfortable!

Breakfast can be improved.

Location was convenient.

The bed was not comfortable and the stairs are steep.

Cost of parking on top of hotel price Worken in room opposite hotel window less than 2 metres away

The guy on reception was so nice , arrived at 1pm and our room was ready so we checked in early , he showed us around the hotel and we were given complimentary continental breakfast the next morning

Everything was good

The calico bar is great with a great selection of alcohol ,the staff are very nice and polite and well informed on the drinks selection

I cant sleep with one flat pillow so asked for another one it took three different occasions of us asking for the pillows for us to finally get them after midnight .the rooms are very stuffy with only a small fan n two tiny windows for a very minimal breeze . We were woken up to a pigeon walking on the ledge outside.staff arent great at explaining how the breakfast works and its not a particularily great breakfast but i suppose you get what you pay for . The hall way was beyond hot like walking through an incinerator and they have motion lights on which is so bright it kept waking me up

Conveniently located very close to the center.

A bit old and not greatly maintained. There's a lingering smell of damp everywhere from the corridors till the bathroom.

Fantastisk personal! Bra restaurang. Bra läge intill Oracle galleria. Ok sängar.

Tegelvägg utanför fönstren. Dåliga avlopp. Lite obehagligt att hitta gamla, använda munskydd på golvet. Lite märkligt att hotellet är klassat med fyra stjärnor, ingen luftkonditionering, inget kylskåp och inte ens en stol på hotellrummet.

Location

Unfriendly staff on reception

Location

Noise and room not really clean. Dirty sheets

Clean room, fluffy towels, comfortable bed and good breakfast

Nothing really

everything was as it should be. alex and anisha showed me round the private event basement area and it looks great, and not too expensive to hire.for the partypeople who want privacy.

no lift for the disabled.

Location

Staff was very dry Breakfast extremely limited in options

Good location near our friends

Needs some updating in the rooms , more choice for breakfast cereals and more fruit as there was only one apple

La ubicación y la amabilidad del personal

El ruido del bar del hotel

On the bus route, nice bar and breakfast. Rooms were comfy.

The hotel atmosphere, silent calm and good thing is that service was excellent Alex and Sampath are so friendly

Nothing that I recollect

perfect location. .mid price and has a great wine bar downstairs.. staff are very helpfull Anisha sorted out a problem with my.booking very quickly shes was great.

Not a lot!

Poor unclean room, terrible beds, no room attendant to restore the room, no lifts, extremely poor breakfast... would be better as just a restaurant and bar, which was pleasing.

Friendly barman Comfortable bed Nice bathroom Lovely bar with great food.

OK, so the rooms are a little dated but isn't that retro?! A bit more choice for breakfast would be nice.

The location was great, the bed was really comfy

The location of the hotel was perfect, steps away from the city center and the train station.

We had a problem with the Bathroom which got fixed later

Staff was exceptional. Comfortable accommodation. Excellent value.

Central

Bed extremely uncomfortable, one inadequate pillow.

Great friendly staff. Very clean comfortable room

N/a

Very nice staff who changed the room to a lower floor because I couldn't take the stairs period that was very appreciated! However the bed itself was passed its prime and the springs were not right it was also cold and didn't heat up until nearly midnight period I left my coat on period but if you're in a budget I think it's a good choice period also the restaurant is Indian food that was delicious despite it being a bit expensive period

Being cared for it with my suitcase etc and getting a different room that was more suitable for my needs period

Even though it was on the main road, it wasn’t loud with traffic noise. The staff were super helpful and my room was divine. It had the bath of dreams!

So many stairs 😂

Good location cheap

Really needs a refit/decoration

Specious and clean

Very friendly staff an environment

Big rooms History and Location and complimentary full breakfast

Thin wallsbut had ear plugs

Ik had een erg grote kamer aan de voorkant van het pand. Kamer 17. Zeer ruim en comfortabel!

De bar is vaak dicht en sluit vroeg. We hebben er geen gebruik van kunnen maken.

Excellent value for money and all the staff, from check-in to the bar and restaurant, we extremely friendly and helpful. Really can't stress that enough - super friendly.

Decor was tired and could do with a refurb. Walls were quite thin.

A brilliant location.

The shower cabinet was dirty especially the walls. Imho it failed the health & hygiene test. Dirty coffee cups. One of the cups were without a handle. The kettle was really dirty. I had to buy a scourer & clean it before use. The carpet needs better hoovering. Just one service socket & it was far away from the bed. I had to drag the bed very close to the service socket for charging. I was promised that invoice will be dispatched electronically to my email address as soon as payment was done but so far NO INVOICE in my mailbox. Invoice is important & there should be no delay at all. Contacting the hotel for invoice update once leaving the property should not be an option at all.

The staff were so friendly and accommodating, our stay was hassle free and we really enjoyed it.

I honestly cannot say anything negative about Hotel 1843 Reading.

Very big room and good value for money

Lo mejor es la ubicación si vas a la universidad de Reading. Está a buena distancia a pie de la universidad y del centro de la ciudad. Las habitaciones son amplias y luminosas.

Podría estar más limpio y las instalaciones más actualizadas, aunque no está mal. Lo que menos me gustó es que mi tren salía por la tarde y no me permitieron dejar las maletas hasta mi partida, como suele ser habitual en otros sitios.

We had a really lovely stay at 1843 Hotel in Reading. On arrival, we were pleasantly surprised to be upgraded to a spacious family room. The room was done in a Bridgestone style, felt generous in size, and the bed was huge and incredibly comfortable—perfect for a great night’s sleep. Breakfast was fairly simple, but it had everything we needed to start the day. A special mention has to go to the Calico Bar—the interior is beautifully done, and the cocktails were excellent, which really added something special to our stay. What stood out most was the staff. Everyone was so friendly and attentive, and nothing ever felt like too much trouble 💫

Very pleased hotel

Nice people

The staff are excellent . Alex on reception is extremely helpful . It's a place for weary travellers/headbanging clubbers or people just passing through Reading, but not really honeymooners. The rooms I have seen have baths which my girlfriend liked..... Bar/restaurant on ground floor is really nice . . It's very good value and in the perfect location .

stairs no lift.
