Reviews for Skyways Hotel
Review 1:The room and the rest of the hotel is badly needing refurbishment. It is very outdated. My room floor was very creaky and was on a slant when you walked towards the window. The window had a crack. There was mould/damp on the walls. There was not a proper duvet, more like a blanket within a duvet cover.
Review 2:The bed was made and fresh towels given every day.
Review 3:The décor is poor paper pealing off walls in parts .The doors were not clean spilt tea that was on the door and wall when we arrived l still there when we left .Shower dirty ,ceiling peeling ,toilet leaking and the whole of the bathroom walls were not clean The only upside was the towels and bed Linen clean .Our breakfast was cold both mornings This hotel I would not recommend to my friends or anyone
Review 4:Furniture and fittings (except for bathroom) looked tired and worn. Although there were illuminated signs advertising the restaurant, there was actually no restaurant at the hotel.
Review 5:The location was good, close to Slough centre, and the room was large and comfortable. The bathroom was well equipped.
Review 6:Missing hooks from all curtains , very thin pillows , no switches for bed side lights , no bathroom towel rail.
Review 7:Good sized room . Good central heating.
Review 8:Staff was unhelpful and customer service was poor. Facilities were dirty and very shabby - there were stains everywhere, a tear on the pillowcase, the pillow was thin and uncomfortable. I requested for two beds and didnt get it despite the fact that there didnt seem to be anyone else staying in the property. The doors squeaked loudly when you open and close. The bathroom looked unclean with lots of stains. There was something that looked like black mold on one wall. It was the filthiest hotel Ive ever been in, and the most unhelpful staff Ive encountered. The receptionist would not even get up from her chair to assist.
Review 9:Location was the only positive thing,if you need to be near a hospital or the train station.
Review 10:Breakfast was pretty poor. We arrived late (3a.m. prewarned) and the check in process was far too difficult for the small hours of the morning. The person seemed confused as to what we had booked, confused about who was in what rooms and sent us on a wild goose chase.
Review 11:Room was spacious and comfortable. It was near M4 to continue our onward journey.
Review 12:Miserable staff on reception. No heating, very cold during night. Thin bedding. Exposed wiring, glad I didn't have children with me otherwise I would have asked to change room.
Review 13:Nothing
Review 14:The room was filthy, the light was hanging out the ceiling, the door was damaged- you would have to pay me to stay there again even then I would think twice
Review 15:When I left
Review 16:Reception took a payment from my card without my knowledge/approval despite the fact that I was up in my room. They had kept my card details from a previous stay!! During one stay, the packing tape-wrapped TV remote stopped working. I reported this to reception expecting a decent replacement but I was handed another tape-wrapped remote. Felt like I needed to wash my hands every time I used it. Wifi signal was terrible
Review 17:Parking facilities were great 20 minute walk from train station Room was dry/clean Cheapest in the area
Review 18:The room smelt of cigarette smoke, was dirty, not enough blankets so my son and I slept in the same bed. Did not want to put bare feet on the floor.
Review 19:The bed linen and towels seemed clean, shower pressure was good..
Review 20:Every thing!!! Filthy Dirty Beds Thick Cob Webs Thick Dust Radiator Filthy Grimey Mirror Disgusting Bathroom, dirty and the hole in the floor (rotten round toilet) Unable to turn fan off - noisey Curtains to small Poor paint job And much much more - the WORST hotel I've stayed in!!!!!
Review 21:Very basic - no hair dryer - no wardrobe or cupboard in single room- no quilt (blanket in quilt cover) - I asked for an extra cover blanket and was told there was one in cupboard but no cupboard - uncomfortable bed. Family room no bed for child he had to sleep on sofa we had to request a blanket for child staff were reluctant to offer one!! Staff on reception not very helpful polte or inviting.
Review 22:It was convenient for our purpose - good parking - it was warm - we had two rooms one for couple with one child aged 5 yrs
Review 23:We got one towel so we asked for another one. Went to lobby to borrow a hair dryer from a locked cabinet. The tile in the shower had black mold in between, he soap rack was hanging on the wall, toilet seat broken, no plug for the sink and no shampoo, rinse....unbelievable!!!
Review 24:To tell you the truth there is not much that I liked except the location was fairly close to the airport. They also made a good breakfast.
Review 25:Can of Foster's lager left high up on a ledge in the'cleaned' room. Very dusty wardrobe and one light / fan inthe room not working. When commented on we were told "it's thebiggest room in the hotel"...
Review 26:Handy location for trains into London
Review 27:Wifi didn't reach my room, no light in shower room, facilities very basic. Pricey for what it was.
Review 28:The staff were friendly and the location was good.
Review 29:There was a bad smell as soon as I walked into reception and then when I walked into the separate building where my room was. The door to my room didn't shut properly and I didn't feel comfortable or secure. When I left for work the next morning and returned back to the hotel in the evening, I arrived to find a key in my door - which the cleaner had left (or so I presumed). I am glad I didnt unpack and took my belongings with me to work as anyone could have easily entered my room and stole property. The staff at reception didn't make eye contact when communicating and overall I felt like I'd made a mistake by booking this hotel.
Review 30:This is the worst hotel in the world No pillow on 1 of the beds, offered a towel inside a pillowcase until the filling morning. The curtains didn't draw closed without leaving a gap in the centre or the outer edge there were to small The beds moved on the laminate floors as they are on wheels The room had a cupboard with 2 ironing boards but no iron? The shower didn't get hot ever
Review 31:I had to hold the shower in my hand, the roof slanted so I could not stand up straight in the shower and I am only 5 foot 7". I could not leave the bed room window open due to pigeons getting in even though the weather was very warm.
Review 32:kettle cable to short to reach plug socket. Bedside lamp broken. curtains in tatters. Broken shower. Bogeys on wall from last occupant. room stank of sweaty feet and alcohol.
Review 33:leaving.
Review 34:Restaurant closed before 9pm Demanded money on entry No wi-fi code was volunteered No welcome on entry or at breakfast Staff made no attempt to interact with us
Review 35:As soon as we got to the reception the staff were arguing with one another. She was very rude when checking us in. The bar was closed by 930pm and they wouldnt also let us play pool. We used to customer toilets and my feet were ankle deep of water, when i told a member of staff she already knew it was flooded but we had nobwarning as there wernt any warning/caution signs. The plug to the kettle was black like it was due to explode. There was only one cup in the room so we had to share to have a cup of coffee/tea. Overall id advise not to stay here, this place is appauling and is not worth the money at all, debating a refund.
Review 36:Not a lot.
Review 37:We were horrified at the mould in the shower and the stench of cigarette. The girl at reception hardly stopped playing with her phone to take our morning or tell us where to go or breakfast. Not sure the curtains have ever been washed by the thick layer of dust we could see.
Review 38:Good parking outside the hotel
Review 39:1. Shower not a bath in the en suite (contrary to website) 2. THREE of five bulbs not working in room 3. No plug in sink 4. en suite grubby 5. What looked like mouse-droppings in kettle!! (Probably some sort of seed or herbal stuff rom previous occupant...)
Review 40:Getting out of the place and visiting friends
Review 41:Poor range of wines.
Review 42:good sized room with wall mounted tv and sofas to sit and watch tv. Daily maid service clean towels daily. Bar and small garden in which to have drink which was good a weather was hot. On main road close to Slough centre easily arrived at.
Review 43:The room was of a very poor standard. There wasn't even a real duvet, just a blanket that had been put inside a duvet cover! It was a double room but with only 1 towel! We went out to shops- upon our return our bedroom door was wide open with no one to be seen anywhere. Anything could have been taken! The lady who checked us in wasn't very polite when I went in to enquire if we could check in early and then charged us incorrectly for the stay. Not very organised. Didn't make it down for breakfast so can't comment on that- but we missed it based on the fact that everything else was so poor we'd be better off going out for food!
Review 44:Desparatley needs redecoratiing in main building. Wallpaper hanging off walls- grim. Washing /renewing net curtains really tacky and dirty.
Review 45:Free parking Easy to find location Breakfast Facilities in annexe double room
Review 46:Everything the room The staff the location easy to find so nice people and our room was amazing Excellent spot to stay when visiting london
Review 47:No wardrobe, no bedside lights,no towel rails or anywhere to put toiletries. No duvet in duvet cover just a folded blanket inside.Unfriendly atmosphere. Unable to get served in bar.
Review 48:Secure parking,breakfast okay.
Review 49:Felt like a it had not been looked after. I paid room with card but they only wanted cash for dinner? I had to walk 2 miles to eat, But I paid by card for room?. breakfast was served in same room as resterant??
Review 50:Room 132 (?) My wife was locked in the en suite. Could not open the lock from inside because of its stiffness, I could not fit a coin on the outside. Had to call for help, Mentioned to the maintenance man. Terrible if it had been a single person!
Review 51:Convenience
Review 52:horrible rude staff, disgusting and dirty rooms. Poor facilities - not enough pillows and no duvet, no shower gel etc and one towel given for the two of us. Wall paper peeling off the walls, horrible damp smell to the room.
Review 53:Breakfast
Review 54:The staff kept giving us dirty looks when arriving then everytime I went for a cigarette. Didn't even get a proper duvet just a blanket in a cover also only 1 flat pillow each cant even sit up in bed and overall looks a bit scummy compared to other hotels in the area for theme price and to top it all off on arrival the staff never mentioned breakfast was from 7-9 and It was 9.02 they told me no breakfast is between 7-9 so I asked if I can buy a breakfast even though I had paid for it they still wouldn't so unless there isn't anywhere else I would strongly recommend not staying at this so called hotel.
Review 55:Not much
Review 56:It felt dirty although it was probably clean. The decor wants updating and the rooms are like going into a hostel not welcoming at all. Compared to other hotels for the same money in the same area lagging far behind
Review 57:the receptionist! very helpful
Review 58:1st room had overbearing mould smell, requested new room. 2nd room, mould on walls & curtains, dirt & stains on the wall, dusty.shower had mould & scum on the walls, bathroom floor was so dirty that bathroom mat was black after mopping up water that leaked from shower, in the middle of the night slugs came out of cracked tiles in the bathroom floor. Beds were gross, no under blanket, mattress stained, dooner was an old blanket wrapped in a sheet, pillow stained, bed sagged & was itchy. Dirty underwear found in bedside side table, staff informed, they said they would clean the room in the morning. Money took 4 days to be refunded back. Hotel is so over priced.
Review 59:It was old, not well kept, Internet only in lobby, and no transfer to the airport. Paid over $70 for airport transfer from airport and $30 back
Review 60:Not a lot, maybe that breakfast was included.
Review 61:Staff I found were friendly and were polite. The bedroom was basic and double bed only had 2 pillows between myself and my wife. Also only supplied 1 hand towel and 1 bath towel. Was quiet during the night so wasn't disturbed. Breakfast in the morning was nice, although they were a little understaffed as 1 person was doing everything so had to wait to be served, things to be refilled etc. all in all it was a half decent stay
Review 62:The rooms are very poor. Bed sheets stained, showers hanging off the wall and in some rooms you cannot even stand up in the shower. no hot water and no bath plug. The breakfast is a waste of time and effort
Review 63:Location is very good
Review 64:Not very clean and shower was very dirty and looked like it had never been cleaned. Toilet didn't flush properly plus mattress was waiter thin. Balcony was locked off with empty vodka bottles fag packets etc all left lying around.
Review 65:Staff were ok
Review 66:Room smelt damp and curtains were dirty. Mattress was stained,bed sheets were torn and did not fit correctly,toilet was leaking and hard to flush. Ants were found in the bathroom and shower head was filthy
Review 67:No ventilation in the room.There was condensation on the windows un the morning.Impossible to sleep with the windows open due to the trafic. Some lights and plugs were not working.
Review 68:Big room,double bed.
Review 69:Everything. Worst place I have ever stayed. Was also misunderstanding with payment, where the owners tried to charge us more, consistently throughout the stay. Multiple occasions of chasing for additional payment although we had already paid in full.
Review 70:Nothing.
Review 71:To get top marks the shower head needed limescale removing and the bathroom extractor fan needed cleaning. These are minor problems that could easily be rectified.
Review 72:I liked the last minute price I got compared to the premier inn where I would usually stay. This was half the price of the premier inn.
Review 73:Rooms need major facelift Bathroom small, old with broken Lino on floor. No ventilation only small opening on window opening into a conservatory. Bedroom very hot. No wifi in our room.
Review 74:Beds are clean & room very warm. Staff friendly & helpful.
Review 75:The rooms were not as shown on booking confirmation.The bar and restaurant only opened when the owner could be bothered to turn up.Regardimg breakfast ,my 18 month old grandson would have eaten that easily
Review 76:nothing
Review 77:Attention to some details would have helped: eg. fixing the shower head onto the wall above the bath; putting a clothes / towel hook onto the rear of the bathroom door; making sure the bedroom lights worked before letting the room.
Review 78:It was convenient and cheap for where I needed to be, so in that respect it worked.
Review 79:Compared to hugely inflated prices of pretty much everywhere else locally, this offers basic but value for money accommodation and friendly staff. Yes it's basic, but you are paying a third of the price of the 'mainstream' hotels. Fine if you just need a bed for a night or two somewhere central. And breakfast, car parking and free wifi included too - somewhat of a rarity, the likes of TravelLodge and Premier Inn add all these little extras on top
Review 80:very basic, bed only had one pillow and a thin cover, lamps didn't work.
Review 81:Staff were very friendly and welcoming. Good size room and bathroom. Food was good.
Review 82:1. All 3 heaters not working and only a small portable heater was given upon our complaint. Suffered a chilling night without much sleep as room was large and we have to endure the portable heater blowing directly at our bed. Second night, the heater was working. 2. The heart to give good service is not there. Check-in was only about collecting of payment and the finding the room etc is on our own. Room was not properly prepared with towel for one person instead of 2 as recorded at the time of booking. 3. Breakfast was a quick rush as their excuse was they must clear up the restaurant as the renting time was up at 9 a.m.
Review 83:Can not find any good point to like.
Review 84:Shower didn't work, tap was broken no handle to switch from bath to shower. No plug 4 bath so could not have bath or shower so only had a wash before work. Absolutely disgusting. Staff couldn't care less because bill had been paid. Would not recommend hotel, and I use the word loosely on any front.
Review 85:I was told on arrival that breakfast is between 7 and 9:45 am when I went to have breakfast at 8:45 am they told me no breakfast service available and that I was late !
Review 86:Regular cleaning , adequate supply of tea and coffee in the room .
Review 87:The room was cold when we arrived late evening, the bed was uncomfortable plus only a throw inside a duvet cover so no actual duvet. The curtains didn't line up so have gaps with front lights coming through plus sunlight in the morning Disappointed there was no soap or shower gel etc plus only hand towels to use after a shower.
Review 88:Free parking and close to town centre
Review 89:Hotel split into two buildings. Building number two door wouldn't open. Skyways solution? Leaving it on the latch for anyone to come in. I was terr for four nights so God knows when they will fix it but seriously, leaving a front door on a latch for anyone to enter the premises is wholly unacceptable. Do not stay here I can not emphasise this enough. Rooms do not get cleaned or beds made either but that was the least of my worries when you're looking out for intruders at all hours.
Review 90:This hotel has had many bad reviews but I have found it to be ideal for my purposes. If people want 5 * then stay in a 5* hotel.
Review 91:Location, cost, good breakfast. The restaurant attached the hotel has good value food. The rooms I have had a very large all have had an excellent large shower and powerful hot water jet. The breakfast is very nice and is available from 06:30 am. Friendly staff
Review 92:Decor very tired, needs redecorating. curtains in room ripped and don't close properly. No toiletries in bathroom. Grouting in bathroom needs bleaching
Review 93:Staff very helpful. No remote in room for TV, I was provided with one instantly
Review 94:Terrible customer service! The man behind the counter was the worst hotel receptionist ever and literally just handed me the room key and walked away. I asked for a breakfast menu the next morning and was just given a full english without even taking my order! Good job im not a vegiterian. On my way back to the room i was greeted by a man lying on the floor with no tshirt on drinking two cans of carlsberg! I say no more....
Review 95:Wifi could be extended to bedrooms
Review 96:Value for money. Breakfast good and included in price. Free parking. Staff friendly. Shower was powerful and nice and hot.
Review 97:The gentleman in reception was rude and unhelpful. The room was dirty dated and cold! Breakfast is served between 8-9 so didn't didn't get a chance to eat it even though included in price .
Review 98:Absolutely nothing!
Review 99:Although Fire Alarm installed, our windows were locked which makes me a little uneasy.
Review 100:Quick check in and out. Location-easy to find. free car park. Cooked breakfast was good quality and arrived quickly
Review 101:The alcohol fuelled f'ing and binding being yelled from the bar across the hotel as we walked in was not a good start. It made me think that this was a contractor type hotel more suited to hard drinking construction workers and not my 20 year old daughter who I had booked in. The receptionist reclining in her chair while playing on a mobile phone as we walked in. The fact that despite the booking.com website saying that my card would not be charged until I got to the hotel, and that my card number was only to confirm my booking, the first thing the receptionist said was 'I've charged your card already.' If we were late I'd understand it but we arrived around the time I said. This meant that despite the wild west atmosphere I couldn't exactly turn the room down as I'd already paid.
Review 102:Good location. Decent price.
Review 103:Room had no window and a skylight that wouldn't open. Bedside lights (3), Shaving point and TV did not work. Bed linen old and worn out and matress awful. Wifi would not function. Dusty and unhygienic. Staff not concerned about the issues I raised. Not worth the money.
Review 104:Breakfast 5/10
Review 105:The TV wouldn't work properly. I don't drink, so TV was supposed to be my entertainment, but it wasn't. The receptionist, though trying tp be helpful was struggling with English
Review 106:The restaurant. It is italian and the food and service is good
Review 107:It was too cold in the bathroom, lack of towels. Bed was not comfortable. Not enough pillows. no shower gel/ shampoo in the bathroom. The cleanliness was poor especially in the bathroom.
Review 108:The breakfast was good
Review 109:Room was cold and the radiator was not working. Noisy - loud conversation coming up through floor even at 3am in the morning!
Review 110:Good breakfast and breakfast service.
Review 111:Cleanliness and presentation of room was below my expectations
Review 112:Lovely breakfast area and sheets and towels changed daily, pleasant staff, decent location within main facilities, very helpful staff saw to all of my requirements
Review 113:The staff were not very friendly should smile more. Booked for two but only one set of towels were given. Other guests in adjacent room were speaking so loudly until around 3 am...and sound proof system is not good as it disturbs us and we can hear all of their conversations.
Review 114:The room was comfortable and we were given in the second floor that i can see the main entrance which i like. Breakfast is ok but would be happier if the portion is bigger.
Review 115:Staff, room, mattress incredibly uncomfortable, no heating on all night, freezing cold. Room Was filthy particularly the bathroom. Plug socket hanging off wall IN FAMILY ROOM!! They Had no doubles so we were given a family room. Staff member later told us not to use the single bed suggesting the cleaning is very poor which was evident
Review 116:Television
Review 117:Hotel charged me £60 for a £48 booking. The following facilites fell short of expectations: * No heating in the bedroom or bathroom * Bedding consisted of a fleece blanket inside a cotton cover (no duvet) * No toiletries in th bathroom
Review 118:The beakfast was very good and cooked to order
Review 119:The room was not clean and a former occupants rubbish had not been removed. The external veranda is dirty with litter upon it. Curtains insecure. Bed side lights not working. Bulb missing. Lamp shades stained. Only 2 coat hangers. Bathroom ceiling paintwork come loose and flaking off. Bathroom carpet dirty. Accumulation of dust behind the sink pedestal. Soap holder insecure. Dusts under beds. Cob webs around wall light unit. Bathroom door damaged with very poor standard of repair.
Review 120:The evening meal in the restaurant and the breakfast
Review 121:Bedding was not clean and in the end we slept on top of the bed using a blanket out of our car. Duvets comprised of sheets wrapped round blankets which smelt of tobacco. Cheapest room available but you get what you pay for.
Review 122:Tatty room, shower enclosure was pretty disgusting, cracked tiles, mould on walls etc, in desperate need of some TLC. Door closer falling off. Tatty wardrobe
Review 123:Great guy on reception, nothing too much trouble
Review 124:The hotel is split into 2 buildings, I was in the secondary bit of the hotel. Every morning it smelt like s**t. You can hear everything from everywhere in that part of the hotel, not very good when you want to sleep early.
Review 125:Size of the room - The room I stayed in was massive. I had 2 2 seater sofas, a 1 seater, a kingsize bed, a massive bathroom and loads of space. There is a bar and restrant on site, they do takeaway too, the quality of food is really good.
Review 126:The room was newly renovated, clean and airy. The Italian restaurant within the hotel was excellent. When we are next in the UK we will definitely stay at Skyways...
Review 127:Upstairs, everything is tired and knocked about from years of use. All the floors creak; you hear everyone's movements in the corridors and rooms above. The staff are friendly and helpful, the rooms basically furnished, but the hotel section is very tired and needs refurbishing.
Review 128:The hotel and the bar restaurant area are separate entities. Downstairs, in the bar and 'Italian' restaurant, all is new. Large screen viewing lounge and a three table pool room which also act as waiting areas for tyhe 'Italian' takeaways. Bar and menu prices are fine as is the service and the food. Breakfast is taken in the Italian section. Cereals, fruit juice and toast readily available and a cooked 'full English' served within minutes. One small sausage, one rasher of bacon, one fried egg and one tinned plum tomato. Served with a smile and small pot of coffee.
Review 129:I booked three single rooms, on our arrival I was told that the hotel had made an error and there was only one single and a twin available, I was then told that we could have the room at a discount and he would only charge us £60 for the twin, this was the same price as on booking.com. The only reason that I accepted the rooms was because we had driven a fair way and it was a bit late to try and find another hotel. The twin room was overlooking the main road and there were some contractors staying at the hotel who decided to sit in the beer garden and make a noise until the early hours. I will not be booking the Skyways Hotel again.
Review 130:The breakfast was very good.
Review 131:Hotel staff woke us up in morning by making too much noice. They tried to make me give them deposit for the key, and it wasn't part if agreement with booking.com Will never visit again, as the hotel is the type that only wants your money and doesn't care bout customers.make this hotel your last option.
Review 132:Cheap
