The Roseate Reading

A listed landmark building on the edge of Forbury Gardens, the Roseate is a luxury boutique hotel that skipped the usual heritage-property trap of charming but cramped rooms. The renovation went deep enough that superior rooms feel genuinely spacious and suites are outright roomy, all with underfloor heating and walk-in showers. A private cinema seats 30, afternoon tea runs in the lounge, and the Reading Room restaurant is a local draw in its own right.
