Village Hotel Reading

On a peaceful stretch of the River Thames in Reading, this red‑brick riverside hotel sits about a 15‑minute walk from the town centre and a short trip to Reading Station — trains reach central London in roughly 30 minutes. The M4 lies nearby (around four miles) with Heathrow reachable in about half an hour.

A stylish riverside retreat with an elegant, dark‑wood executive boardroom and leather seating, the property has 122 guestrooms and suites (some with river‑view balconies) plus minibars and private bathrooms. It’s eco‑certified and centres wellness with a leisure club featuring an infinity‑effect indoor pool, sauna and five treatment rooms — ideal for a riverside morning unwind.

Stand‑out perks include a health club, spa with multiple treatment rooms, an infinity‑effect indoor pool, sauna and spa tub, plus concierge services and banquet facilities. Complimentary Wi‑Fi is available throughout, on‑site parking is provided (charges may apply), and families will appreciate easy access to nearby attractions such as Thorpe Park and LEGOLAND Windsor via concierge recommendations.

Well equipped for events and meetings: six contemporary meeting rooms, a Riverside Suite for up to 200 guests, a dedicated executive boardroom, business centre and AV kit including projectors, microphones and screens. An on‑site meetings team can handle event planning, with express check‑in and check‑out available.

Dine in the on‑site AA 2 Rosette restaurant and bar/lounge serving British fare — think roast fillet of Exmoor beef and saddle of venison — or order 24‑hour room service. Buffet breakfasts are offered on weekdays and weekends (times vary and may incur a charge), and suites can be upgraded for balcony dining with river views.
