Looking for a night or a weekend away this summer? Somewhere cool or to cool down, with a great restaurant, with space to stretch out or enjoy the sun? Or just looking for a great deal? Here are 10 top recommendations of places to stay in Reading this summer.
By the River
The Crowne Plaza Reading (pictured above) is located on the south bank of the River Thames by Caversham Bridge. Book a room with a river view, stroll the Thames or just sit in the courtyard garden and enjoy the rays bouncing off the water. The hotel is walking distance to town centre & train station and you can just hop on a boat or walk along the river to great food accompanied by live music. We have a weekly live music event until the end of August.
Enjoy the Pool
On a warm day having access to a hotel pool can keep you feeling fresh and relaxed. Both Hilton Reading and Novotel Reading have their own indoor pools to float away in.
Make a Meal of it
A memorable meal is often the highlight of a great hotel stay. The Reading Room at the five-star Roseate Hotel will stick in the memory for all the right reasons. Or try their Afternoon Tea. The Roseate Reading is a charming townhouse converted into a five-star hotel. Treat yourself to a romantic escape or a rejuvenating wellness stay while immersing yourself in a delightful gastronomic journey. From wellness breakfasts to fine dining and classic English Afternoon Tea, every meal is an experience to remember.
A Walk in the Grounds
The classic country manor house, Wokefield Park, boasts its own 250 acres of Berkshire countryside as well as an 18-hole PGA championship golf course and driving range. The hotel is just south of Reading and has been completely transformed following a £20 million restoration. You can also make use of our jogging and walking routes that venture around the 250-acre estate. De Vere Wokefield Estate is also dog-friendly.
Enjoy the Games Room
Central Reading hotel Penta Hotel is handy for anywhere in the town centre, but if you don’t fancy exploring, the hotel ground floor bar area has a wide range of games from darts to pool to keep you entertained.
Rooftop Terrace
Looking for a lively place to stay in the heart of the action, Market House has its own vibrant bar and restaurant as well as a roof top terrace bar to relax and enjoy the rays.
Start the St James’ Way
Malmaison Reading is excellently placed as a base to set off on the St James’ Way pilgrimage route. The original Brunel designed railway hotel with a modern look, it is obviously handy if you are arriving by train and also very close to your pilgrimage starting point the next morning, a two minute walk from Reading Museum where you can get your pilgrim passport stamped as you set off on your 68 mile Camino. Watch the video as walkers set off on the St James Way from the Malmaison>>>
The 77 rooms and suites used to be just for people who had a train to catch. But these days, the most fabulous hotel rooms in Reading are a destination in their own right. Whether you're looking for a romantic getaway or simply stopping off to do some business, these rooms all offer you a one-way ticket to hotel heaven.
