FAQs about hotels in Reading

Work and Play Beside the Thames

At the meeting point of the Thames and Kennet rivers, affluent Reading is close to London, yet far enough to feel completely different. For this reason it is an important business hub, particularly for IT. The M4 motorway runs directly from here to Heathrow Airport, and trains from its station terminate at Paddington.

The town has literary connections to Jane Austen – whose school was in the Abbey Gateway – and Oscar Wilde, who was imprisoned in its jail. Nowadays, the Reading Festival is its biggest cultural event and has earned a place in the town hall museum. However, its most impressive exhibit is a replica of the Bayeux Tapestry.

The Reading shopping options include Broad Street and The Oracle, a riverside complex also housing bars, cinemas and restaurants. The river continues south to one of the town’s green spaces, some housing golf courses. Forbury Gardens features a bandstand and large lion statue, and next door are ruins of an abbey founded by Henry I.

Potential day trips include the Roman remains at Silchester, and river cruises to Henley-on-Thames, while sport lovers should visit the Madejski Stadium, home of Reading FC and London Irish rugby club.

Booking.com’s Reading accommodation includes hotels with spas, cheap apartments and guest houses with parking.

    For me Reading is too urban to be a chosen destination.

    For me Reading is too urban to be a chosen destination. We visited in order to meet up with friends who were en route between USA and family in the north. Reading has a lot of ethnic restaurants which is a bonus. Lots of shops. There is a small but pleasant Rural Life Museum which is free to enter and has activiites for children. There are also old Abbey ruens. For us the best aspect of Reading is the Kennet footpath by the water and the beautiful Thames path which we stayed beside in the Crowne Plaza.

    Like many towns, Reading ranges from affluent to grotty.

    Like many towns, Reading ranges from affluent to grotty. The house is located off the Oxford Road which I know well having worked at both ends. The location is set well back from the Oxford Road and was very quiet. The house has been styled to impress. Not my cup of tea in many ways and overall was very good indeed. If you want to go for a walk at night. Having a bit of street savvy would be wise. If not car or taxi to any venue may be a good idea.

    Reading is a lovely place, with beautiful classical and modern architecture. The excellent road networks and proximity to the motorways meant you could get out to London, the airports or the rest of the country quite quickly. The shopping is great with major malls and plenty of restaurants. I’d recommend a visit anytime.

    Great location close to both Bracknell and Reading Town centre. Good facilities, my partner enjoyed the gym and said the equipment was good and the gym wasn’t very busy. The pool was nice a decent size and had plenty of chairs and day beds for guests. The hotel itself was very clean and looked new or refurbished. All in all a good stay.
