Zašto Ljudima Sviđa
- Location directly opposite the famous Turner's View of the Thames
- Complimentary access to the extensive Cedars Health & Leisure Club next door
- Heal's mattresses in every room that guests consistently rave about
Brzi pregled: A charming Georgian grand dame that suffers from 'wedding fever' on weekends and some tired corridors, but makes up for it with unbeatable park access.
Pregledano od @rishita.31: I felt like I was living in a modern period drama here. The decor is stunningly bold, and my morning coffee on the balcony was the peaceful reset I needed. That bathtub? Absolute heaven for a long soak.

Reality check
You might encounter a 'damp' or musty smell in the older Georgian wings, and room service trays sometimes linger in hallways for hours.

- You appreciate a mix of historic character and modern plumbing
- You're bringing a dog—the park access is world-class
Čistoća i održavanje

- Maintenance: Hill Collection is sharp; Georgian wing has some creaky floors and peeling paint in corners.
- Linens & towels: High quality, crisp, and fluffy.

“I am a light sleeper and would appreciate a room in the Hill Collection or a Georgian room specifically located away from the ballroom and function suites to avoid event noise. A view of the meadows would be a bonus.”
Česta pitanja i skriveni saveti

Is there a pool?
Not in the hotel itself, but guests get free access to Cedars Health & Leisure Club next door, which has a pool, sauna, and steam room.
Is it pet friendly?
Yes, very. Dogs are welcome for £35/night, with access to the bar and terrace (but not the main restaurant).
How far is the Tube?
Richmond Station (District Line/Overground) is a 15-20 minute walk downhill (or a short bus ride/taxi back up).
Is there AC?

What is the parking situation?
On-site parking is available for ~£15/24h. It's first-come, first-served, but usually has space.

Depends on your rate. If not, it's around £22, which some guests find steep for a buffet.
Insajderski saveti
- ✨
Book direct to potentially waive the £15 parking fee.
- ✨
The 'Hill Collection' rooms have a hidden wardrobe behind a sliding bathroom wall—it's a space-saving trick that confuses people.
- ✨
Ask for a 'Richmond Hill yoga mat' at reception to use in your room.
5 stvari koje trebate znati prije nego što krenete
💡The walk back from the station is a steep uphill hike—don't attempt it with heavy luggage.
💡There is a 'blue night light' in the Hill Collection bathrooms that stays on unless you find the specific master switch by the bed.
💡Room service trays can sometimes be found lingering in the hallways for half the day.
💡The 'Georgian' rooms can smell faintly musty or damp due to the age of the building.
💡You can hear the deer bellowing in Richmond Park during the autumn rutting season from some rooms.
