The Hotel is in a lovely location, right next to the River Thames. The Staff were very helpful, friendly and accommodating. The Room was lovely and clean with a great view of the River We stayed at the Hotel for two nights and had Dinner both nights. The Food was really nice and again, service was good. If I was being picky, it would’ve been nice to have had some complimentary Bottled Water in the Room on arrival. I would certainly stay here again and plan to do so in a few months time.

Fabulous Thameside Location

Fantastic location right on the banks of the Thames River, ample fee parking and plenty of lovely country & riverside walks. Staff extremely friendly & helpful and food first class, breakfast freshly cooked and plentiful. River view room spacious with great views. Only downside is the hotel in general is looking a bit neglected and could do with a refurb. Enjoyed the stay and would book again.

No better place on god's earth when the sun shines

3 nights and sunny during the day. I could quite happily not gone anywhere and just sat watching the river. Breakfast very good. No draught bitter in bar but rough it with bottle's of speckled hen.

Review:This hotel boasts a beautiful riverside location and offers a warm welcome, with friendly staff who were particularly helpful in resolving issues I encountered. My room was clean, and the bathroom was pleasant. The weather was warm, and the room was equipped with a fan. I had a comfortable night's sleep in the bed. Breakfast was a highlight, featuring a good quality buffet with a variety of juices, cereals, and breads, along with a cooked selection and great-tasting coffee.However, the hotel is showing its age and could benefit from a refurbishment. The carpets are worn, and the doors lacked proper handles. While the location and staff were definite positives, a general update is needed to bring the hotel up to modern standards.
