Thrifty travelers may be surprised at the kind of accommodations they can find on a budget, and that they can indeed stay at a quality hotel reading. That means a hotel that has a complimentary breakfast, tea, coffee, and is close to local transportation and close to things to do in the area.
Both business and leisure travelers will appreciate having access to the internet and to direct dial telephones. Business people will also appreciate finding a hotel that has a conference room and free parking, at least as long as it’s available.
Not every quality hotel reading has a restaurant on site, but that is definitely something to consider, particularly if you are going to meet a client for lunch or if your family likes to have dining facilities right there at the hotel. The hotel restaurant may also have a bar area, and it may be suitable for meeting business clients as well as for dining with family. If you are staying there as part of a wedding party, you might want to arrange with the staff ahead of time to host a wedding party breakfast, or a rehearsal party dinner.
If you are a business traveler who finally has a little personal time to see the area, or if you are traveling on holiday, there are lots of local attractions in the Reading area. For museum lovers, there is the Reading Museum, the Museum of English Rural Life, the Ure Museum of Greek Archeology, the Museum of Berkshire Aviation, the River and Rowing Museum, Milestones Living History Museum, and Pendon Museum.
The Royal Ascot Racecourse is less than 15 miles away. You can hear the Reading Symphony Orchestra at the Hexagon Theatre.
