Reading Hotels | Places to Stay in Reading

August 6, 2022 Merry Kessler

Just west of London, Reading offers redbrick Victorian buildings, medieval ruins, a thriving university, and pretty waterside walks along the Thames River. Its student community and annual rock-music blowout—the Reading Festival—add an offbeat edge.

I went to do my work experience there and trust me the place is amazing. All the works there are welcoming, services are amazing. I got to see the room s and how they are taken care of and it simply amazing, the amount of work put into the place is unbelievable. Their food is great, they also have a nice bar and restaurant. And there is much more to be seen I definitely recommend it. They even have a cinema ?️?️.

Malmaison Reading

The brief encounter, that fleeting glance from across the platform, a longing to be with the one you shouldn't...Meet me outside the station at this gloriously converted rail hotel. You shouldn't have this much fun so close to Heathrow, but you will at Mal. You shouldn't find a train set in your room, or a bath big enough for two, for that matter.

Mal just gets better and better… Thank you

This place just gets better and better!!! Staff are amazing, the general manager always comes over to say hello and cannot do enough for you. The best cocktails in Reading by far! The ambiance and general mood of the place is always on point. THE STEAK IS UNREAL… will be back for another stay, juicy steak and delicious cocktails soon. Thanks Mal ?

We chose Reading Central for it's proximity to our family. Our Premier plus room was comfortable and clean. The staff were friendly and efficient. Only downside was poor wifi and fridge didn't work. Air con was a bit temperamental.

We were in the Club lounge and Sunil worked his socks off. He was professional and friendly. He never stopped for a second and tended to everybody's needs. He also remembered each and every person's drink preference. Sunil needs a promotion!

Clean, quiet and nice comfortable beds. Very helpful, friendly and accommodating staff. Nothing to much trouble for them even though I rocked up 8 hours early for checking. Only thing I would say is please make your hotel more visible with some signs out in road maybe.

Brilliant for comfort, service and outstanding food. Could not fault this stay and would certainly go back. Highly recommended on all levels. There was a connecting door available in our room but we didn't need it. Very comfortable beds and air conditioned rooms. It's about an hour into London or Oxford, not to mention many other locations, which is convenient for tourists. Loved it here.
