About Mal 2
16 Boardroom
30 Theatre
16 U-Shaped
Our Mal 2 room brings together practical design with the character of this historic railway hotel, creating a productive workspace for your team gatherings. The space centres around a substantial boardroom table that comfortably seats 16 delegates, with the flexibility to arrange in U-shape configuration when you need more collaborative discussions. Based on the lower-ground floor, this private room offers a focused environment away from the main hotel bustle. We've set up the space with an LCD projector and screen for presentations, supported by complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi throughout. The boardroom table comes dressed with proper glassware and fresh linens, ready for working sessions that run through lunch or important client meetings. The room works particularly well for confidential discussions, training workshops, or strategy sessions where you need everyone around one table. For larger presentations, we can reconfigure the space theatre-style to accommodate up to 30 attendees. The enclosed setting helps maintain concentration during intensive working sessions, while our catering team can provide refreshments or working meals directly to the room. Your attendees will appreciate the convenience of our location, literally one minute's walk from Reading Station. This makes day meetings particularly practical, with delegates able to arrive from London, Oxford, or Bristol without the usual travel stress. The Victorian architecture of our building adds an interesting dimension to corporate gatherings, providing talking points during breaks while maintaining the professional atmosphere you need. We regularly host board meetings, departmental planning sessions, interview panels, and small training programmes in Mal 2. The contained environment suits groups who need to work intensively together, whether that's hammering out quarterly targets or conducting confidential negotiations.

The dishes weren't that clean, the front of house reception service wasn't that polite, the room was ubearably cold, they advertised to fit 15 in but it was uncomfortably small.
