Self-Service Kitchen & Security
Riverside Rooms offers a shared kitchen for self-catering, allowing guests to prepare meals at their own schedule. The property uses a coded security system on all doors, providing a layer of safety beyond standard hotel keycards. Each room includes underfloor heating and a flat-screen TV as part of the in-room setup.
Rooms & Storage
Rooms at the guest house come with ample storage solutions for long-term stays, including hanging space and shelving. All units have desks and flat-screen TVs, with bed linen and towels provided. The tiled flooring in common areas is maintained to a high standard of cleanliness by the staff.

The property sits 1 km from Reading city centre and 20 km from LaplandUK, with direct access to local transport. Reading Train Station is within walking distance, and the Oracle Shopping Centre is nearby for retail needs. Private parking is available on site for guests arriving by car.
Safety & Practicality
A coded entry system on the front door ensures that only guests with the correct passcode can access the building. The hotel provides prompt responses to entry-code requests, as noted in guest feedback. Windows in ground-floor rooms face the canal path without locking mechanisms, though the area is noted as quiet.
Nearby Attractions
The Museum of Reading and Forbury Gardens are within a short walk from the guest house. Madejski Stadium is close by, making the location suitable for sports events. London Heathrow Airport is 43 km from the property, offering a base for airport transfers.
