Wonderfully designed hotel and bedrooms, complete with finishing details. Large comfortable beds with working heating provided a warm cosy evening. Beautiful landscape and surrounding views. Would love to visit in the summer and enjoy a ride along the river.

The Hotel is lovely and the reception staff excellent. The only non 5* part of the stay was in the restaurant where an otherwise excellent meal was blemished by a very gristly steak which was met pretty much with a shrug of the shoulders when pointed out to the serving staff.

Idyllic setting by the river, and in walking distance from The Mill Theatre. Cool decor, very clean, lovely and comfy 'cosy double' room. All hotel and restaurant staff are very friendly and helpful. Restaurant food is tasty - not cheap, but good burgers and delicious range for breakfast. Top tip - book and PAY in advance for your breakfast to guarantee a table and pay the maximum of £17.50 rather being charged for individual items.

A lovely location for a modern twist on the country house hotel. We stayed in the Coach House apartment which was quirky but well appointed. Great food and service at the Coppa Club with other options nearby.

Immaculately clean and beautifully laid out room. The free standing fan played a welcome dual role of cooling the room and masking the road noise.

A pleasant stay in a very cosy room overlooking a car park so quite noisy. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable but rather creaky. A good range of beverages plus bottled water in the fridge. Lovely bathroom with very nice toiletries and soft towels. Ideal for an overnight stay. A lovely terrace and garden with plenty of seating including some pods. There is a gate that takes you onto the towpath so that you can walk off your breakfast or lunch!

The room was very clean & comfortable. The shower was lovely but the shower tray was very slippery so great care was needed. The towels were great but almost too large if being honest. It was a lovely touch having fresh milk in the fridge & cold bottles of water. We have stayed numerous times before & wouldn't hesitate to return.

Great location, clean good facilities in room, good quality fridge and television. Shower excellent. Can be slightly noisey, in warm weather as you need to keep windows open as no air conditioning. Garden leads down to Thames walk way, which gives lovely walking options.

Good points:
Food in the Coppa restaurant is excellent. Fresh, beautifully prepared, really couldn’t fault any of it.
The conservatory and outside space on the river is very nice. The restaurant staff were also excellent, helpful, friendly and obliging, with very few exceptions.
The rooms were modern and clean.
Bad Points:
The receptionist checking us in was indifferent to us and everyone else, we imagine?
We’d booked a ‘Biggy’ double (£200 a night) - we were given no.9
The extractor fan in the minuscule bathroom didn’t work and as a consequence the room smelt damp and fusty/drain like and was unbelievably hot, due to the intense lighting? We asked them to fix it, they didn’t manage it whilst we were there?
The windows were safely locked and could only be opened 2inches. There is no air-con, just an extremely large fan that sounded like a small car running? It’s been a hot weekend and the room was diabolically hot and because of traffic noise and people generally partying, we had to have the windows closed at night - sleeping at night was therefore almost unbearable.
I was also continually disturbed by a door slamming periodically through the night. This was not another resident but staff working downstairs beneath our room. I spoke to reception and they said they’d look in to it, after which, it was even worse!
Sadly, can only recommend the restaurant, we would not stay at this hotel again.
