Pet friendly hotel in Reading

“Lovely hotel, close to the train station and town. Great base for a day trip to London. All the staff we came across were friendly and helpful. Rooms are a good size, added bonus it had a fridge.”

“Such an amazing experience. Right in the heart of Reading. Shops, pubs and restaurants within walking distance. The beds were so cozy they were hard to get out of in the morning. The staff was always fun and helpful and upbeat!!! Not just one member, it was everyone I came in contact with. You absolutely can not beat the price per night!!”

“Great place to stay if visiting London. £6 taxi journey to train station, or 20min walk. Breakfast is brilliant. Staff are so helpful. Rooms are immaculate. Really can't fault the place”

“Lovely two nights stay at the Caversham Bridge. Rooms were very comfortable and clean. Breakfast was very good with a great choice. All the staff were very friendly and attentive.”

“We stopped by for a late lunch/early dinner just after 5pm on a Sunday. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, they were serving food which was a plus as many places had stopped. Lots to choose from, the food came out quickly and well presented, I had a chicken roast and my husband had a burger and halloumi fries. We sat outside in the courtyard, it was quiet, perfect for what we wanted and delicious food. We will definitely come back, thank you!”

“Lovely hotel with great, friendly staff. They welcomed us and our children extremely warmly and made our life a lot easier! The evening buffet for the children was brilliant as it meant they could eat without waiting ages and pick what they wanted and change their minds easily enough. The grown up food was also very tasty. On a personal preference I thought the food was a bit 'poncy' for my taste but that's entirely a personal thing! Would definitely look to stay here again if I was in the area.”

“I was staying in the Premier Inn last Wednesday/Thursday night and every morning when I came in for breakfast the young lady always greeted me with a smile and was very friendly. You could see she was rushed off her feet as she was working alone when everybody was all coming in at once. She always put the customers first and despite her other colleagues watching her instead of helping her. She work really hard and even managed to say bye to me as I was walking out the door. Great services by Natacha despite being on her own.”

“Very centric, 5 mins walk from train station. The room was excellent, but the views on the window so - so. Comfortable and big bed, very clean. The best of all? Service! Excellent attention, kind and polite personnel. Oh, yes, don't forget to taste their delicious pizzas!”

“So I got married here and it was honestly such a beautiful day, I couldn’t have asked for better team to organise my wedding day, so helpful from day one. The only thing was the rooms are rather small but to me it was my little fairytale wedding!”

“I had an amazing experience at this hotel! The staff were incredibly welcoming and friendly, which made the stay even more enjoyable. The atmosphere was superb—warm, relaxed, and full of character. The swimming pool and spa was great, and the historic setting of the hotel added a special charm to the whole experience. Breakfast was a real highlight—flavorful and satisfying, with top-notch service. However, the restaurant food was a letdown. While the staff remained friendly and attentive, the meals were tasteless and overpriced. This is definitely an area that could use some improvement. Overall, I had a fantastic stay and would recommend the hotel for its atmosphere, history, and hospitality. Just hope they upgrade the food at the restaurant soon!”

“Was doing Deliveroo and was impressed was the design and filling of this place”

“The hotel was absolutely lovely. As a wheelchair user, I get anxious about going to new places but this hotel is 100% disabled friendly. Although I didn't have a disabled room, the room I had was very spacious and I was still able to use my wheelchair in it easily. It was very clean, the food was delicious (although slightly expensive), and all the staff are very friendly and helpful. I would 100% recommend this place for a lovely little retreat, the spa facilities were really nice and also wheelchair friendly!”

“Phoned the lovely lady midday of arrival 23/10/25 for a travel cot, in the specific room, we paid for. She notified us then that there was a noisy dog near us so would we like to move to the floor above but in same position of building we agreed to that and was very happy with it. The rooms clean the showers were nice and the staff are friendly. Everything was spot on. Thank you”

“We had a superior double room, it had loads of space and a coffee machine (always nice to have) the bed was comfy and the whole room was clean, all the rooms were sealed after cleaning with no one else being aloud it until we went it, so I felt they had taken all steps they could. The staff were really helpful and friendly and the food was fantastic, we had breakfast 2 mornings and dinner 1 night and it was excellent. My only quarrel about here was we could hear the road although it wasn't loud enough to keep us awake. Its a must stay and we will be staying again”

“This is our second time staying here this year at Dial house hotel..we would definitely be visiting here again and again...it has a charm and character that you don't get with bigger hotel chains...the staff are amazingly friendly and accommodating..the rooms are rustic and the shower is amazing hot and powerful..the rooms are clean and so cosy..the staff has personal attention in details to make our stay comfortable...would definitely recommend you stay here to find out what a great place this is....Spence and Bara”

“I come regularly to visit my children and stay here. The rooms are a little dated, but don’t let this put you off because the beds are super comfy as they have recently changed them all. I had a fantastic nights sleep. The staff are always very welcoming, helpful and polite.Parking is great and I think the price is extremely reasonable for what you get here. This is always my first choice when I come back to Bracknell.”

“I was pleasantly surprised. I wasn't expecting much for the price I paid, but the room was nice, clean, aired and not stuffy. Bathroom was in good shape as well. Little shower gel and hand soap was provided. The room had a fridge, microwave, some plates and cutlery, and mugs as well as basic coffe and tea options. Athough I'd suggest adding a tea towel or something to put the washed dishes on . The only downside was very loud fridge, it actually woke me up at night There is plenty of parking spaces. I booked with breakfast, good option to choose from even gluten/dairy free options were provided Definitely recommend”

“I was dubious about spending a night here with my family as some reviews were bad. However I really don’t understand some of them. We have gone away for a night and this was the closest and cheapest hotel so we thought why not. We came in and the receptionist was nice and helpful. Our room was a family room on the second floor at the back of the building (room 203) and it was really nice. It was clean, stocked well with tea, the sheets and bedding were clean as my wife has a thing for checking. There were towels and body wash. We were really impressed! The beds were comfy and they had extra pillows. I can say for £64 a night you really can’t go wrong. Would stay here again.”

“Visited the bar several evenings running, as there was great football coverage. The bar was very comfortable and welcoming, warm, and the beer was great! Will definitely be visiting again.”

“Very friendly and helpful staff. Clean rooms , lots of parking . Pub next door serves food.”

“i have stayed in the hotel for a few days and it has been absolutely fabulous. I have experienced great facilities and the service from the staff has been amazing. i paid a good price which i didnt expect too much from but the room has all your essentials and i have nothing to complain about. I saw many bad reviews which felt as if they were absolute nonsense and that price you pay suits the accommodation. Ill definetely stay here again. Thank you”

“Rooms are nice and big great showers, plenty of parking easy to find....booking and service was great.”

“Couldn't get a room en route from Reading to Bournemouth for under £160. This place has one for £57. I was dubious but had to do it. Thank God I did. Nice little run of rooms, basic, a little dated but clean and equip with everything you would need. View from my room over the church, TV, tea and coffee, good shower, desk and chair and two beds. Looking forward to breakfast.”

“I stayed here with a group and we were all a little worried because of the other reviews. We were subsequently pleasantly surprised at the fact that the hotel was actually lovely. It may not be the most modern place I've ever stayed but the beds are comfortable, the rooms are relatively spacious and the facilities are great. The staff are also very friendly and accommodating.”

“The service was excellent, stayed recently for a festival event and was delighted with the local receptionists knowledge of the area. Bar area is also lovely and great value like the rest of the hotel, overall brilliant area and great value! Thanks”

“General thoughts Went on a work trip and stayed a day and a night. This place was fantastic. Looked as good as the pictures suggested. Overall, really clean as well. I think the price was reasonable too. Would describe it as a sort of studio apartment when I booked for the doublebed single room option (can't recall exactly what it was called). Rather than give you a physical key, you'll have to download an app on your phone to get your apartment key to unlock your door. If you rely solely on mobile data it can sometimes be a bit laggy but once you get access to their wifi it works fine. And you can connect to your apartment's wifi from outside your door. Bedroom Nice double bed with decent amount of space to walk around the bed. Had a functioning heater at the foot of the bed. Had a closet to hang your clothes with plenty of hangers to use. New sheets fitted and they provided large clean towels to use if required with smaller hand towels as well. Had a screen to close off the bedroom from the hallway and the living room. Toilet Sparkly clean toilet, shower and floor. They provided shampoo, soap and hand soap for washing. Plenty of toilet roll as well. Ventilation system was good, so didn't leave the place feeling humid. Good water pressure with the shower and good temperature range as well. Living room + Kitchen Kitchen had full sets of clean utensils and cutlery to use. Dishwashing liquid provided as well. You could cook using their pots, pans on their induction cooktop. They also had a large microwave and toaster to use. Living room had a large tv and a portable air-conditioner. Also had a dining room which could seat 4. Sofa was large enough to fit 3 or you could sleep on it if you want. Store cabinet Had an iron and ironing board as well as washing machine. Overall, very pleased with the place and would consider staying there again if I needed to.”

“Excellent, warm friendly hosts , beautiful clean rooms , exceptional hospitality absolutely loved our stay , would definitely return, thank you x”

“We had an absolutely wonderful stay , it is beautifully decorated thorough out, very peaceful. Extremely comfortable. We also got treated to breakfast, which gave an extra touch of home from home. We were visiting for my sisters big birthday party, which was a stones throw away. It’s a little gem, and now we’ve found it we’re hoping to use it each visit. We took our little doggy too. Who also love the peace and fantastic walks around the estate, highly recommend this coach house excellent on every level. Thank you Diane x”
