“Occupying Reading's oldest building near the Oracle shopping centre, this hotel distinguishes itself with a characterful design that nods to its history as a coaching inn. I found the on-site dining, featuring both Italian cuisine and classic British fare, particularly appealing, along with the recently refurbished LV Lounge & Bar. Though some rooms might feel compact, the overall experience balances historical charm with contemporary comfort.”
