Aug
After one of the hottest and driest starts to summer on record, a cool, comfortable apartment can make all the difference.
Provisional Met Office figures show that July 2026 was the UK’s second-warmest July on record, while southern England experienced its warmest July and driest month ever recorded. Berkshire was among 19 counties to receive no more than 1mm of rainfall throughout the month.
This followed June’s intense heatwave, when temperatures in England reached a provisional 37.7°C and unusually warm nights made it harder to cool down and sleep comfortably.
With hotter days and warmer nights becoming an increasing consideration for summer travellers, effective air conditioning is no longer simply a welcome extra.
Air Conditioning is available throughout 100 Kings Road
All apartments at our flagship 100 Kings Road aparthotel in Reading have individually controlled air conditioning in every room, offering you a welcome respite no matter the temperature outside.
This gives you the freedom to set the temperature to suit you, whether you are working from your apartment, relaxing after a busy day or settling down for a comfortable night’s sleep.
Air conditioning is also available throughout the communal areas, including our co-working lounge, helping you remain cool and productive during your stay.
Combined with the space and flexibility of a serviced apartment, you can cook, work and relax on your own schedule, with support from our Guest Services team whenever you need it.
