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.

    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!

    We love the Forbury Gardens and Reading Abbey.

    We love the Forbury Gardens and Reading Abbey. We had an excellent meal at "Veeno's" near The Forbury which serves fabulous authentic Italian food and the atmosphere is unbeatable. The evening was completed with a visit to "High Spirits" in Kings Walk. It serves the most wonderful and imaginative cocktails in the whole of Reading. The staff are very knowledgeable and personable and service is swift and courteous. Highly recommended.

    It’s difficult to walk into twin from the hotel.

    It’s difficult to walk into twin from the hotel. Easier to drive or taxi. River walk is pleasant. I would not walk outside late at night especially if in your own as it’s not the best area. Shop centre has high end stores and better vfm is on Broad street. Plenty of places to dine . Bracknell which is a 25 minute drive away has a very pleasant shopping centre also. Reading is well located for visiting attractions in all directions within a radius of 30 miles.

    I adore the City of Reading as they are so many choices and activities available. I popped into the city and also ate out at a lovely Lebanese restaurant called Comptoir Libanaise which is a beautiful restaurant on the river serving delicious food. I can thoroughly recommend visiting the quays and you'll be spoilt for choice with restaurants including Japanese, Mexican, British, French and much more. You'll also find a few places scattered around the town such as Thai kitchen and Treats The Oracle is a great centre for shopping with many high street stores and it's worth a visit to the Lido for a nice swim and relax. It's a great day out or makes a fabulous weekend away to explore the city, spend time with a loved one or visit some friends.

    Reading is a relaxing and safe city.

    Reading is a relaxing and safe city. Although there is no "Most-See" place, the ruin is well-preserved. Parks and museums are quite interesting. Walking at the path along Thame riverside is a pleasant experience. It's a worth-visiting place for 1-2 days if you have time. It can also served as a base for visiting Oxford and Windsor.

    The young Nepalese waiter at breakfast was extremely helpful, courteous and informative. He possesses all the qualities a hotel worker/manager needs. If I were the supervisor at the Sure hotel in Reading, I would offer him a post as trainee manager. I was also very pleased when the at the reception desk on my arrival, I was 'upgraded' to a room in the coach house. Very much appreciated.
