The Forbury Hotel, Berkshire

Description: The Forbury Hotel

Standing before Reading's Forbury Gardens and Abbey Ruins, the Forbury Hotel is set in a magnificently restored and modernised early Edwardian listed mansion, originally built in 1911 as the Shire hall for Berkshire County Council. This majestic property is now a luxury hotel, offering exclusive accommodation, fine cuisine and top-class service in a highly central location.

Perfect for both business or pleasure in Reading, the Forbury Hotel is within easy reach of many of the town's most important landmarks, particularly the Abbey, Greyfriars church and Reading Minster. There are a number of excellent golf course dotted around the town, and Newbury, Ascot and Windsor racecourses all a short drive away.

The Forbury Hotel is home to the Cerise Restaurant, which serves traditional English cuisine in chic and stylish surroundings. The award winning kitchen team creates seasonally changing menus, and dining can be enjoyed both in the elegant dining room and out of doors on the terrace. The Cerise Cocktail bar is a great spot to wind down and relax with one of the bar's excellent cocktails, for aperitifs or after dinner drinks. Afternoon tea is also served in Cerise, the library or the lounge.
