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.

Only one night at the hotel and spent very little time in Reading as we went to Twickenham for the day to watch rugby but we thoroughly enjoyed the boat cruise up the Thames from our hotel and would like to take a cruise in the opposite direction ie towards Henley next time we visitHuwUnited Kingdom - 8.0Scored 8.0

In truth, I didn't visit Reading for the town itself, but to see my daughter who lives in a flat there. We drove around for a short while, so that we could see some shops and eat out somewhere. We had a short stop on a barge to have a nice cup of tea then later ate at The Oracle in a Japaneese restaurant called OSAKA at Unit 16, Riverside Level. OSAKA had a really good vibe as well as good food ;-) I didn't find Reading particularly interesting, as it somehow felt like a jumble of concrete buildings and roads. No doubt it has some hidden treasures, like the barge we found to have tea on - which needed to be booked. It has to be said that I didn't have many hours there at all, therefore, nothing was espeically planned.

There are many shops, restaurants in the area. We visited Bill's and as ever it was perfect for a light lunch while shopping. In the evening we went to the slug and lettuce for pornstar martinis. There is a cinema and other attractions close by and it was amazing walking down by the river.Jacqueline - 4.0Scored 4.0

The town and the major roads into it are extremely busy. Lots of traffic lights and some complex junctions and lane changing. We did not stop in the town centre because that was not the object of our visit. The golf course looked tempting but that will have to wait for another time.RobertUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10

I am familiar with Reading, but, for those not so familiar, the area can be a little noisy, to be expected, given the central location. Everything is on your doorstep. Shops, clubs, etc. Never lack of anything to do, places to check out, shops, etc. Eateries to suit all tastes and budgets!

- From $120.33 per night6.7Scored 6.7PleasantRated pleasant· 1,760 reviewsStaff very friendly upon arrival. Room is decent size no space for a desk or bedside lamps however. Coat Racks, Large TV, Free Wi-Fi, large bathroom were all highlights. Had a large double bed which is extremely comfy. For the price this far exceeded my expectations. I used this place for somewhere to rest my head overnight due to train cancellations from Reading to Cardiff. It's within walking distance (10 mins) of Reading Station, town centre which boasts high street shops, pubs and eating establishments.
PatrickUnited Kingdom - From $323 per night7.7Scored 7.7GoodRated good· 2,791 reviewsDespite the confirmation I have, and even my card information being available the hotel canceled my booking. Further, When I ask they reply that they are overbooked and who was coming first they give him the room . My advice to the traveler's please do not trust what so-called pay at the property!!! It's an unethical business process. THEY SPOILED ALL MY WORK PLANS FOR THE NEXT DAY. I choose the location in propose this people do not understand people travel to do their work!!!!KhamisOman
- From $225.46 per night8.5Scored 8.5Very GoodRated very good· 1,546 reviewsThe room was spotless and beautiful, and the staff could not have been more welcoming. You can't beat the location, either--such a great place for exploring Reading, and its proximity to the train station makes it a great (and much less expensive) base for exploring Oxford, which is a half hour train ride away. The shower was fabulous, and the toiletries smell so good (also appreciate that they're in refillable containers). The AC was perfect. Thank you for everything!TaliUnited States of America
