Stay close by<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you any of your relatives or friends are travelling to attend the funeral, they are able to stay close by. We have handpicked a few places to stay if guests are planning on stopping over in Reading the night before or the night of. These hotels are all within a 5-minute drive or bus journey to the University of Reading and some just a short walk. We have also negotiated the best rates with some hotels on your behalf so you can book directly with the hotel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
