A RECEPTIONIST was tied up by knife-wielding hotel raiders who stole £1,000.

The two men struck at the Holiday Inn in Bath Road, Padworth at 1.30am on Friday last week. They pulled out their knives, tied up the receptionist and grabbed the money before fleeing. The receptionist was otherwise unhurt during the attack.

Both men were white, the first 5ft 7ins, around 25-years-old, with a wide face, clean-shaven with short dark hair. He was wearing a green or grey zipped-up jacket, light blue jeans and white Adidas trainers. He spoke with a foreign acent.

The other man was 6ft 3ins, 25-years-old, slim and had a long face and nose. He was wearing a hat with flaps covering his ears, a black knee-length coat, light blue jeans and brown shows.

Witnesses or anyone with information should call Det Con John Yallop at Newbury Police Station via 0845 8 505 505 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
