One of the largest towns in the UK, Reading has it all – history, culture, Michelin-star restaurants, modern-day shopping centres and more bars, pubs and clubs than you could shake a cocktail stick at. And, thanks to its compact town centre, it’s all easy to find from one our our three hotels in Reading. Maybe best known for its three-day music festival, there’s another side to Reading worth exploring that includes some amazing live music venues, an incredible eight-sided theatre, sprawling town parks and some brilliant sports arenas.
