The hotel was fantastic, perfect in fact! The hotel itself is absolutely gorgeous, steeped in rich history and the staff were very pleasant. Our room was fantastic! Everything was so clean, neat and tidy. It was the best hotel that we have every stayed in and we will be back!

    Pentahotel in Reading is an excellent choice for anyone visiting the area. Its central location makes it perfect for exploring the city, and the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, ensuring a warm welcome. The hotel boasts a great atmosphere, combining a trendy, modern vibe with comfort. The rooms are stylishly designed and well-equipped, providing a very pleasant stay. One of the highlights of my stay was the great breakfast, which featured a selection of high-quality ingredients and a large variety of options to choose from.
