The Roseate Reading

We stayed in the newer House portion, where the beds were comfortable and we slept well. The parking area is in between the older Classic Hotel and the newer House building, accessed from the rear; the Abbey Baptist Church across the street was a good navigation point. We were glad to be able to pay for parking onsite, since the other options are a few blocks away. ||Variety of restaurants nearby, a nice park across the street, and interesting Abbey ruins just around the corner. Enjoyed our Thames River Cruise and wished we had more time to explore Reading.

One of the nicest hotels I’ve stayed in for some time. The kindness and helpfulness of the staff is one of the outstanding qualities of his hotel. The breakfast is on par with most Michelin star restaurants. We stayed in a suite in the House Building. Quality of the furnishings, the style and the cleanliness were exceptional. . Everything was chic but luxurious . I am now looking for reasons to return to Reading so I can stay here again .

My wife and I visited The Roseate Reading Spa for her birthday, and it was the perfect experience. We enjoyed a massage, body scrub, and facial, and everything was carried out with such care and professionalism. I booked with Chimi, who was excellent throughout, and on previous visits I’ve also had the pleasure of treatments with Rekha and Csenge, both equally wonderful. The facilities are beautiful, creating a calm and luxurious atmosphere that makes it easy to relax and recharge. This was our second visit, and it certainly won’t be our last, the spa truly makes every occasion feel special.

After plans significantly changing last minute for my mans birthday I was desperately searching for something for us to do together. He mentioned recently about doing a spa trip and I never thought I'd be able to find somewhere for a last minute package. Cue Chimi!||I saw Aheli did couples packages and although there wasn't availability for the weekend on the website, I thought I'd take a chance & ask! Chimi was kind enough to fit us in on the Saturday late afternoon (We only spoke on the Thursday). Seeing as I've not had a spa treatment for over 10 years, I was a little aprehensive but Chimi put my nerves at ease immediately. Walked us through the options and advised on what would be best based on our individual needs. ||We had the "Time to reconnect" package, which included a 30 minute scrub and massage, or 90 minute massage if we preferred. |Based on her recommendations, we both went for the Tropical scrub, I chose the traditional bali massage, he was advised to get a mixture of traditional bali & intense strokes. ||We were given towels and slippers and first directed to the steam room and sauna (Private, which is a massive bonus) both were clean and really relaxing! Though don't be like me and forget to take your makeup off beforehand! We were in there for quite some time then were shown to the couples room, beautiful and calm. They had laid out flower petals & chocolates with a little happy birthday message for him which was a really lovely touch! ||We were able to have a quick shower before our respective scrubs, another shower to wash off the dead skin & exfoliants & massages. The entire experience was so relaxing, all tension and stress I'd had built up in our muscles were released & both of us were commenting how lovely our skin and hair felt afterwards. (If you have curly hair, the oils for the head massage really define it!)||All in all, fantastic experience, will be returning as a couple, solo & with friends!

The Asian looking Receptionist was very lovely person and very professional. Felt very welcoming. But the public are, lobby , downstairs toilet really need a good scrubbing . Very dirty. Room is tired as expected but clean. Only problem was when the weather is hot, it’s like a steaming here. They only provide a loud noisy industrial fan which you can’t use while sleep. Need some new quiet fan! Bed is hard. Lots amenities including nice slippers. Big bathroom shower very powerful. Location is excellent next to the park and everything.

Highly recommend. We stayed in the “House”, which is the newer section of the hotel - the rooms were beautifully styled, spacious and comfortable. Great location, close to the city centre and train station. The Reading Room is also worth a visit, especially for the afternoon tea!

Really lovely hotel and restaurant in the centre of Reading. Felt very much like being in an up market London hotel. Food was incredible and the suite was spacious, comfortable and stylish. The staff couldn't have been more attentive and friendly. We will be coming back.

To be fair to the manager, he addressed my concerns and made suitable compensation. I really hope that the feedback was taken on board and that future visits are much better. ||Our issues started with beautiful but bland sandwiches, and a macaron that you had to crunch, rather than melt in your mouth. A 15 minute wait for a coffee to arrive, another wait for the bill and in the end we went to reception to pay. This was Friday afternoon, it wasn't busy and there were plenty of staff. So I hope this was just a one-off.
