Beech House Hotel

Clean room and nice Victorian house, beds too hard.

I would like there to be a bottle of water in the room.

This was our third visit to The Beech House, and every time we arrive it feels like coming home. The owners are so welcoming and incredibly thoughtful, nothing is ever too much trouble, and you’re made to feel more like a friend than just a guest. The rooms are a joy, spacious, immaculately clean, and wonderfully comfortable, a real haven after a busy day. Breakfast is always a treat, with plenty of choice and everything cooked to perfection. We’ve stayed in many places over the years, but The Beech House is in a class of its own. Consistently warm, comfortable, and full of charm, it’s our first choice every time we visit Reading.

The rooms are spacious, spotless, and extremely comfortable. Breakfast is always delicious, with plenty of choice, and the gardens are beautiful – a real bonus for relaxing after a busy day. Consistently excellent – we wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Reading.

Nothing!

Where do I start with how simply lovely this hotel is? The proprietors, Nazlee and Umar could not have been more welcoming, warm and friendly. A few days before check in, my schedule changed and I wouldn't arrive until between 10pm and midnight depending on traffic on the drive from the Lake District. I called to ask about late check-in and Umar guaranteed to be on hand personally to ensure the best welcome. Upon arrival he saw my tiredness, took my bags, sat me in the lounge to check me in rather than standing in the foyer. Just superb, customer centric empathy and service, like being welcomed by a family friend. My room was comfortable, with a fantastic mattress (medium firm, great support). Breakfast is a choice/combination of cereals, fresh fruits, yoghurt and juices, cooked breakfast items including vegetarian options. It is served quickly, and gently by either Nazlee or Umar, who obviously put their heart and soul into their personal involvement in running the business. The hotel is ideally placed on the main road into Reading - a 20 to 25 minute walk, with regular buses also running from a stop around 100 metres from the hotel.

Felt welcome and excellent for business place to stay, close to city center

Beautiful old house, immaculately presented, outside and inside. Friendly and professional service throughout our visit. Dining area very nice garden room and breakfast was very good. Parking area a huge bonus as was the Beefeater restaurant opposite.
