Considering the relatively high cost, the hotel was lacking in service and value. With breakfast at £29, this only covered the hot breakfast. Cereal, fruit, yoghurt, etc, was extra. At dinner, the menu choice was very limited with around 6 or 7 mains of which 2 were burgers. The hotel also needs more eco awareness, small plastic bottles of shampoo and shower gel are wasteful and should by now be replaced with refilled containers. Otherwise the hotel was clean and staff were generally friendly

We were in town visiting our daughter. The Petersham is a charming hotel ideally situated in Richmond. Breakfast was excellent each morning. We also enjoyed late night glasses of wine.

Just by seeing the wall of signed pics of previous guests you know you’re in a top quality hotel. If you can just stay once, it’s so worth it. Lovely. I can’t wait to go back again.

Very comfortable room, posh hotel in a beautiful setting with Thames River walks just 2 minutes away. Rates were surprisingly reasonable given the location. Will definitely stay here next time we are in town. Restaurant was a little pricey and had limited selections for dinner, but the food was great and the view from the dining room is unsurpassed.

Everything was great and its a beautiful area. The only thing that wasnt "bad" necessarily is that it was not air conditioned (yeah, we're spoiled Americans). But the temperatures were fine and there was a fan included. Staff was great and accommodating. Lots of beautiful areas nearby!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at The Petersham Hotel, located just 25 minutes from central London. This charming hotel is perfectly situated above Richmond Park, offering breathtaking views of the River Thames. The hotel itself is clean and exudes charm, with lovely personnel who are always ready to help. The rooms are stylishly decorated, maintaining the historic and elegant feel of this "castle". It's an ideal retreat for anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the city while still being close to all the action. Highly recommended for a serene and luxurious stay.

The hotel was beautiful and we hadn’t booked the restaurant before we arrived, but when we arrived everything looked so amazing that we decided to eat in the restaurant. We had an extremely tasty dinner. We will definitely come back one day to stay.

Hotel is beautiful and we were lucky enough to stay in one of the bigger rooms with a balcony. The view of the river from the balcony was amazing
The only 2 downsides were that the bedside lights couldn’t be turned on separately to the ceiling lights and so my wife inadvertently woke me up in the night when she turned her bedside light on. It was also impossible to open the toilet window and there wasn’t an extractor fan so the room couldn’t be aired
4.0
Very clean property with outstanding service. Well appointed and English as it gets. Great location with nice river views. Easy walk to most everything. Do wonder what it is like in warmer weather as the lack of AC can cause a bit of stuffyness. Overall great place to stay.
4.0
well , the room was a little disappointing in its location . I booked it well in advance and was told it would be possible to be given a room with even a limited view , but on arrival was given a room on the ground floor at the back with no view at all , As it was my birthday treat , and I used to live in Richmond it was disappointing not to have any view at all
3.0
Fairly overpriced for size of the room , bathroom lovely but separate toilet couldn't even turn round in without hitting the sink, didn't stop for breakfast as looked very pricey for what it was and the hotel took an extra £60 from my card to hold until we checked out which I thou go t was a little steep
3.0
Room was small for a deluxe room with just a double bed, not a king. Staff were poor and didn’t seem well trained at check in or check out and all just a bit dated.
