The Roseate Reading is a stunning hotel located in the heart of the city center, but unfortunately, parking can be a challenge. The car park is rather small and very limited, which means finding a space is like playing a game of chance. Guests have complained about the lack of parking, which can be a nightmare to find and even worse when you need to sort parking on arrival. Some have suggested that the hotel should provide free parking, especially since the price of parking is silly at £20 a night. The car park is also quite cramped, which can result in scratches to guests' cars, which is not ideal. Even though Martin, the parking attendant, does his best to guide guests to their parking spots, the task can be tricky and sometimes inaccessible for guests with pushchairs or mobility issues. Finally, the hotel staff need to improve communication with guests about the parking situation, as some customers felt that they were not informed about the £20 parking fee. Overall, while the Roseate Reading is a charming hotel, it's best to travel light and be prepared for some parking challenges.
