Bow Guest House, hotel in Reading

A beautiful Victorian, family-run guest house located in the heart of Reading, Bow Guest House offers well-furnished bedrooms, free Wi-Fi and free parking.

I particularly liked how helpful the owner was at all times, and that there was a bathroom every two rooms. As I was the only one from those two rooms, the bathroom was all by myself. It also includes breakfast.

    Lovely, cosy room with TV and wi-fi. Unexpected full kitchen facilities to allow self-catering. Great hosts who were friendly and quick to communicate via WhatsApp when questions arose. Lovely incense throughout the flat. Only 10 mins walk from the station, very close to the town centre.

    Lovely to stay in someone’s home, Sonia was a great host even letting me chat to her and say hello to the cat! Wish I could have stayed the 2 nights as I had originally planned but it ended up only being the one due to a work event! The room was cosy & cute with services nearby & there were services in the kitchen I could use as well. This is definitely the best home stay b&b I’ve stayed at! Much better than a travelodge!!
