Had a great weekend stay at The Roseate. Very spacious room (House Premium Room) with separate bath and shower. It was a nice breakfast, but I felt somehow about the service charge that was attempted to be added on top of the breakfast charge.

Got there early and they let us leave car and come back later for check in. Our room was a junior suite which was such a great price. 4 poster bed, a deep couch and a lovely spacious room that was a perfect temperature.

Staff are friendly and the reception area is nice. However if you're staying in the 'The House' keep in mind this is a slightly scruffy building past the car park that is like a Premier Inn but with smaller rooms.

I had a lovely stay at the Roseate. Beautiful hotel, staff were so friendly and helpful. I had a lovely massage at the spa. I had a couple of issues with the bathroom- shower heads weren’t working in shower or bath, but staff were great about it and gave me complimentary breakfast! Would definitely stay again

Service was wonderful. There were a few hitches with the dinner party we had arranged, but it was addressed immediately. We were more than adequately compensated with a private room and various other upgrades. A most enjoyable post Christmas weekend.

I contacted the property before our stay to ensure that there would be parking available as my husband is disabled and was told that they had plenty of parking. When we arrived at the front of the hotel we asked where the parking was and was given a map which takes you 1 1/2 miles round a one way system to access the rear of the property, when we did this there was no parking available. We had to walk 20 minutes for the nearest available parking at a cost of £16 completely contradictory to what is on the hotels website as the footbridge linking the hotel to the centre is under repair and closed. When I asked the receptionist why they provided us with the map when they knew the car park was full the receptionist was incredibly patronising. I did complain to the manager who in fairness did try and resolve matters but as he said the damage was already done. The restaurant food was the biggest positive of our stay.

Beautiful hotel, have stayed before. Sadly service was not so good this time. Had water pouring through the bathroom ceiling at midnight…..night manager came up, said hotel was full, put towels on the floor and no more could be done! Water was very bad so asked the hotel to find us somewhere else to stay and refund us….suddenly another room was available and we moved at midnight. Not the hotels fault that water came through the ceiling but the service and attitude of the night duty manager wasn’t great and no apologies from the hotel. We stay in Reading quite often, visiting family, but won’t stay here again. Shame as the hotel is lovely and a great location.
