Amazing hotel with impeccable service
Quirky hotel in the most beautiful location overlooking the Thames. From start to finish our stay was amazing.
With my husband being a chef we did not book a table in the restaurant, but when Chateau Briande was on the menu a table was quickly requested. The service and food was impeccable, as was breakfast served in the room the next morning.
Cannot wait to return again

Very nice.
Very nice atmosphere and friendly staff, very comfy bed, very clean, make sure you turn on the shower 5-10 mins before you want one, hot water takes ages and no glasses/ Tumblers.

A stay of two halves
Well my stay started off very promising, hotel reception called in advance of my check-in to see if I wanted dinner (always nice to get this call), on my arrival was informed I had been upgraded to a junior suite (again nice). I was shown to my room, it was very cold but I can live with that as I had only booked a few hours before arriving and wouldn't expect them to heat an empty room. I slept reasonably well but when I awoke early to shower & shave I was greeted with only cold water, It's an old building I thought so lets just let the water run a little..5 minutes still ice cold water..10 minutes again still ice cold this made for a very bad start to the day. I went to check out as I had already lost 15 minutes to my day by faffing about with the water I wanted to get going ASAP. I mentioned that there had been no hot water and was amazed at the response I got "well it is an old building" I will spare you the rest of this short conversation. My advice is do not stay here if you need to have a shower that is not ice cold!!!

Loved the roasting ducks in the fireplace and the snugs. Staff were truly excellent.. breakfast vv good . Spotlessly clean room and comfy bed .
Dining area could with remoderising and staff wear more casual clothes rather than dark suits. . Having said that the guests eating there seemed to like that atmosphere
