    However, one minor drawback could be the pillows, which tend to be on the firmer and higher side. It would be ideal if the hotel could provide a variety of pillow options, with a soft and firm pillow each side to ensure a restful night's sleep for all guests.

    Situated on the outskirts of Reading, the Roselawn Hotel boasts an advantageous location that is conveniently close to both the M4 motorway and the bustling city of Reading. The hotel's staff members have a warm and welcoming demeanor, ensuring a pleasant and enjoyable stay for guests. The meals offered at the hotel are not only delicious but also provide excellent value for money, catering to the needs of budget-conscious travelers. While the decor may exude a nostalgic charm reminiscent of the 1970s and 80s, the rooms themselves offer a serene and peaceful atmosphere, allowing guests to unwind and relax.

    Nice Hotel location with reasonable size rooms, but Bathroom inadequate...
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple
    • Double Room
    • Stayed 2 nights

    The Bathroom, needs to be modernized, it was highly ungratifying to see that such a quaint family run Hotel still preserves independent Hot & Cold water Taps, of which when you wash your hands you either Burn or Freeze yourself. Also there were no Tops/shelves to place a simple Travel Bag, had to place it on the floor. Electric Shower, was also inadequate with no water pressure, so it took us both longer to rinse the shampoo of us,...no water saving there...!!

    I liked the location and the size of the bedroom, the bed was also quite comfortable. My wife and I do not eat cooked breakfast, so we had to eat the two days we stayed the same Cereal, juice, coffee and toast. There was no Croissants, Buns, Chopped Fruit...etc what is generally available for breakfast in other Hotels. I understand that the Breakfast was included in the price, but we would rather pay extra and have more of a selection, maybe that would explain why on both days we were the only persons at Breakfast. I would suggest to the Hotel Management to try to address this Breakfast issue and provide a wider range/choice of food.

    Shower not very powerful/low water pressure and could do with a good squirt of anti mould in the corners. I didn't have a car so (lesson learnt) need to prebook any taxis.

    Hotel was clean and comfortable in a quiet location. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was good with decent coffee (always a plus) Good value for money.

    ...the second bed in the room was very hard! Nothing else

    Staff are friendly and helpful. The breakfast is very good and served early enough to get to work nearby for 8.00 Walking distance of a good pub with Indian food (Thatched Gate) The escaped ram made for a fun entrance! Bed was comfortable, though...

    In 103, one bed was comfortable but the other bed near the window felt like it had no springs!

    It is out of the way but convenient for the out-of-the-way place that many people visit nearby. A short walk to two pubs and the local village. I tried the Gate, which had an excellent beer and seems to have good Indian food. Staff at the hotel were friendly and helpful. Room a good size and had what is needed. Some nice seats outside to catch the evening sun in summer. Great cooked breakfast.

    With this very hpt weather, a fan in the room would have been good. In fairness I didn't ask as I had one in the car.

    Travelling on your own can be a little bit loney at times. All members of staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable and food hot and tasty. I had no problems with the free wifi and was able to continue to work.

    AS we arrived too late to eat, it would have been good to have had the option of a few bar snacks.

    Although there was no actual bar, we were able to buy a drink and enjoy it on a very comfortable sofa in the lounge area, The room was a good size and the bathroom, although a little dated, was very clean. Breakfast was very good and the staff were all helpful and friendly.
