Originally we chose the Selwyn because it was very close to the Richmond station and easy walk to Richmond town center. We were very impressed by the staff, decor and upscale vibe. We would definitely stay at the Selwyn again!

I had to wait 20 minutes to check in when finally someone turned up. They took a ‘deposit’ on my credit card and have still not refunded it, 2 weeks after my stay. I would avoid this hotel and certainly won’t be returning.

Gorgeous, high end hotel. Great amenities, easy walk to downtown and the beautiful town common. Richmond was a wonderful place to visit with our teen girls from the US. There was some noise audible in the room from doors closing in the hallway, and light came in under the door and from the window overnight. Bed was very comfortable though!

Great location and will stay again
Booked as an overnight after game at Twickenham. Price is the price on weekends like this but really surprised, location the way the building looks and when you walk inside bit of a wow factor. Staff were really nice and polite even I turned up drunk after the game. Breakfast was great but to be honest I did not have much as back in the road to get home. Will stay again on another London trip

The lobby and dining area are very nice. However the rooms are tiny, so small there wasn't enough room for our luggage or to walk around the bed. The bathroom was also tiny with no counter space. Shower was too small for a normal sized person so I have no idea how a larger person would fit in the bathroom. I would not recommend this hotel.
