We have just returned from spending a lovely weekend in the Forbury. The hotel is pretty awesome, the decor is fantastic and the bedroom (ours was the most basic) made us want to move in! The only thing missing is a spa and swimming pool and this would be the perfect place to stay! There were a few gripes if... more

My husband and I spent a wonderful time at the Forbury. We were on the way back home after being away for 6 months, and I didnt expect such an priceless stay. I felt as though I made friends with the owner/manager and was staying in their home. It was so fun, and we enjoyed the champagne and the little... more

Have lived in Reading all my life and never knew this wonderful hotel existed! Purely by chance, through work, this Hotel was brought to my attention and as my Husband and I were about to celebrate our 28th wedding anniversary I decided this would be the perfect venue to celebrate. From the moment you enter it has the wow factor.... more

From looking at the web site everything about this should have been prefect for my needs as it has 2mb Internet connection and a nice space to work. I choose this hotel as it seems to be independent,... more

A really outstanding hotel. We've stayed in lots of beautiful places but this one stands out for being a great hotel. Each space is beautifully designed, they've kept the original marble flooring and overall it has the feeling of being somewhere that people have obsessed over. But ... the service was patchy. Some of it was excellent, the young porter... more

I took my wife to the Forbury for a romantic night away after Valentines Day and was incredibly impressed. The hotel is only a 5 minute walk from the train station and with trains running all the time from Paddington it took no time at all to get there from London. The hotel looked impressive from the outside and as... more

My partner and I stayed at the Forbury as part of a group - my sister in law's 50th birthday. This is one of the most incredible hotels that we have stayed in - and the list is already impressive! We arrived for afternoon tea on the Saturday - cucumber sandwiches and Earl Grey tea(v civilised!). We then took our... more
