The Spotlight on Holiday Inn Reading South M4 Jct 11

Convenient Comfort Close to Reading's Music Scene


Modern and friendly, the Holiday Inn Reading South M4 Jct 11 is a comfortable base just off the M4, perfect for travelers catching a gig in Reading. Only 2 miles from the town centre and within walking distance of the Madejski Stadium, this hotel offers great value with all the essentials: air-conditioned rooms, free high-speed Wi-Fi, and a well-equipped fitness centre.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel is a top pick for music fans thanks to its prime location near Madejski Stadium—an easy walk or short drive away. With late check-out at 12:00 and a no-fuss check-in from 14:00, you can rest easy after a late-night show. Nearby bus routes and easy motorway access make post-concert transport straightforward, even if you’re coming in from further afield. Despite being close to major roads, guests often note that rooms are quiet and peaceful—ideal for winding down after the encore.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends heading to a show together who need easy parking and shared spaces
  • Solo travelers catching a favorite act with a comfy, secure base
  • Couples making a romantic weekend out of a concert night
  • Fans needing a restful space to recover from a high-energy gig
  • Budget-conscious music lovers looking for value and convenience

Food and Drink Options

The hotel’s Open Lobby restaurant serves up international favorites and regional specialties. Whether you're after a pre-show meal or something light post-concert, the lounge is also a relaxed spot to enjoy a Starbucks coffee. While there’s no 24/7 room service, late-night snacks and drinks are available, and plenty of dining options are a short drive or cab ride away. Breakfast is served late enough to suit even the sleepiest gig-goers.

Nightlife Options

While there’s no on-site live music, the hotel’s lounge offers a chilled-out vibe with drinks available. You’re a quick ride from Reading’s town centre, where pubs, bars, and late-night hangouts await. Whether you’re after a lively nightcap or somewhere to unwind, the city’s nightlife is within reach.

What People Say

Reviews often highlight the friendly staff, spotlessly clean rooms, and excellent value for money. Many guests love the hotel’s proximity to events at the stadium and appreciate the free Wi-Fi and comfortable beds. Travelers also note how easy it is to find and park, even late at night.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that the decor is a little dated in parts, and others would prefer more dining options late at night. However, these are small trade-offs for a quiet, clean, and convenient stay near music venues.

The Bottom Line

If you’re heading to a concert in Reading, the Holiday Inn Reading South M4 Jct 11 offers comfort, convenience, and great value just minutes from the action.

Had a brilliant stay! Will...

Liked: Had a brilliant stay! Spacious and clean room, great tv setup as well. Great location with a Lidl just across the road and there is a calmness around the general area. 2pm check in time and 12pm check out is such a huge plus!
Disliked: The toilet was hard to flush. A few people barged into our room, twice! So rude and weird.

Passable

Liked: The staff at reception was friendly and welcoming.
Disliked: It was 2 adults and 1 child. When we arrived, the sofa bed had not been set up. I called reception to request that it be prepared, and they confirmed it would be taken care of. However, after a long and tiring day out, we returned to the room at 11pm to find that the sofa bed was still not set up. Thanks to the night shift he came to put it up for us last minute.

Perfect place to break up...

Liked: Location, staff were polite and friendly. They had done what I had pre asked them to do regarding our rooms.
Disliked: The beds were too hard for us. I had an accessible room and the bed was too high for me to get in and out. I needed a wet room or shower and not a lower bath with shower over.

Convenient location, ample parking, good...

Liked: Very convenient location close to the M4 on the outskirts of Reading with ample and safe parking. Rooms are large, beds are comfortable, housekeeping and cleanliness are excellent. Aircon worked very well on a hot day. Check-in was polite and seamless; breakfast was good and restaurant manager Suleyman was super friendly and efficient, he really made us feel welcome. Housekeeping staff seen in the corridors smiled and said good morning.
Disliked: Long corridors to get to most rooms. Rooms have no mini-fridge, which could be a problem with young families and kids wanting milk at all hours. One bad apple staff member at the front desk was incredibly rude when saying the lack of fridges "Is not my problem" before storming off.

Pleasant - 3.0 out of 5

James Mon, 7 July 2025

Small bathroom poorly staffed reception.

Liked: Good car parking. Rooms away from the main hub (where the noise is).
Disliked: Bathroom was the smallest I have ever stayed in making it difficult to shower. No good if you are a larger person or have mobility issues. Failed to answer the telephone on reception desk prior to arrival. We called multiple times over 3 hours. On one occasion the reception lifted the receiver and replaced it terminating the call (you could tell by the sound).

Wendy Mon, 7 July 2025

Good

Liked: All of the staff were brilliant, from check-in to the restaurant.
Disliked: We had to change rooms due to sewage coming up into the toilet and shower drain. However, the member of staff responded very quickly to arrange the room change.
