The room had a fab view but was tired ! It seemed like a very quick turnaround with dirty pants left in a draw. The hotel is a great location. There was a wedding ceremony on the day . I asked for a glass of champagne they said they didn’t have any glasses to serve me one !!!!!

Great location, not so great foreign owned restaur
Hotel is located right on the river and we had a fantastic view of the river and church. Wonderful waking up to church bells ringing. Had a drink out on the riverside lawn so views are fabulous. The breakfast service we expereinced was fine. Indian owned so gave us naan bread, weird. But others were furious with time it took for breakfast to arrive two/three families waited over an hour for theirs to arrive. Luckily we didn't but listening to the others shout at staff wasn't great so please look at this. Indian owned part of the hotel so communication was not great, foreign workers couldn't speak English so this could really damage the hotels reputation!!!

Pleasant staff. Very expensive
Air con in the room should be more effective. Bit of a cheek to pay extra for various breakfast items. And to only get half a sandwich for £10!!

The overall staff are not qualified to handle guests relations, most of guests are complaining the slow customer support and a lot of basics are not available in the hotel such as hot water for showering and one single receptionist is dealing with all check in and check out which delayed our check in for about 3 hours.

The location of this hotel is stunning. We were lucky with the weather and couldn’t have wished for a nicer pub garden for a drink overlooking the river. Inside the room was a little dated but comfortable and clean. Disappointingly there was no hot water for the morning shower. And the breakfast was only ok. I don’t understand why poached eggs and avo has an additional £6 charge compared to the full English breakfast - and the toast was burnt.

Great stay
We stayed for one night with friends. We were able to leave the car and walk into Marlow for lunch. As the weather was beautiful we spent the rest of the afternoon sitting on the grass by the water watching the world go by. It was really relaxing. Dinner in the riverside restaurant was fabulous. Next time we want to try Sindhu.

Great staff, but dated rooms
This is the best hotel in Marlow and is in a brilliant position for easy access to everything in Marlow. The staff are great and polite and professional. However, the rooms are dated and tired (really old TV, old fashioned bathroom with leaky taps, mouldy sealant behind the taps and generally a bit dull overall). Breakfast is expensive but has a complicated supplement system for some dishes which quite frankly ridiculous for such an expensive hotel and expensive breakfast - if we stay again we would skip breakfast and get something nicer in town for half the price (the serving staff were lovely though). Finally, we stayed on a busy night, queued for ages at the bar for a 'night cap' drink, carried the drinks back to our table ourselves and were still charged a 'service charge' on top of the relatively high prices anyway

Lovely hotel with great views, could use refresh
The hotel is in a great location. Definitely an upmarket feel, lovely views over the river and the bridge and church. Service was excellent by everyone we encountered. The bar and restaurant areas are really nice and comfortable, food and drink was great. Easy parking, plenty of it. We had a four poster delux room with river view. These look over the weir, which is lovely but is very loud. The rooms have very old windows that don’t shut properly. We didn’t mind the white noise so much but one to bear in mind. Air con didn’t work or wasn’t switched on. Room in general was nice but dated, needs an upgrade. Mugs we used weren’t changed for clean new ones on second day. Overall great, it some little things that could have been much better for the money, it’s a very expensive hotel

Our check in and out excellent - lovely staff. Room quite large. Wardrobe but no drawers to put clothes so had to stay in suitcase. Room clean but a bit tired. Had balcony which had good view of river, but it was rather shabby. We did enjoy our stay and glad we did stay there.
