Residence Inn by Marriott Slough

It’s very convenient for catching a train into London and the breakfast food was good, but the eggs and beans were lukewarm and the plates were cold. I arrived around 9.00 pm after a long day and 2.5 hours on motorways, and the reception ignored me for five minutes or more while a lengthy food order for another couple was taken. The bar was well‑staffed and not busy, yet no one made eye contact or said “We’ll be with you in a moment.” (I’m in my late 70s with white hair, and it feels like that makes me invisible to younger people.) When I finally got attention, I explained how being ignored had felt, and they apologized and offered a small snack on the house, which I accepted. A free alcoholic drink was also offered, but I declined because I’m teetotal. For the rest of my stay, the reception staff went out of their way to be welcoming. As they say, you only get one chance to make a first impression.

The room was fine, but parking was an issue.

“Завтра минимальный.”

The room was very good, with a kitchen, a separate lounge, and a table. Breakfast was lacking.

“Budget friendly option if you need to stay in Slough but overall, wouldn’t recommend.”

It’s close to the train station, the rooms are a good size, there’s daily breakfast on site, and a gym. However, I had problems with housekeeping, and the front desk staff was incredibly unhelpful in trying to fix them. A strong garlic smell lingered in the room, and the staff didn’t help with that either. The mattress was too soft and needs replacement. The breakfast is the same every day; it would be nicer to have some variety, especially since they accept long stays. I found cobwebs in the room, the bathroom fan didn’t work, and there were towels for one person even though I booked for two, so I always had to ask for more. The booklet said you could connect to the TV via Chromecast, but when I asked the front desk, they said it wasn’t possible. There was no information in the room about amenities like breakfast times, housekeeping hours, or gym hours, and there seemed to be no staff at the Marriott desk; I had to go to Moxy’s.

“With closing dedicated reception, the Residence Inn has little own idendity, it appears like a Moxy”

The front desk is shared with the nearby Moxi, so you hear all the mass‑tourism chatter, noise, and disco‑style vibe. Guests wander in and out without any reception staff keeping an eye on them, and there’s no security personnel visible anywhere.
