The views around the castle and the whole outdoor area were just stunning. It was like something out of a movie, and walking around outside was definitely a highlight. I also really loved learning about the history of the building itself. All the hotel stuff, like the pool and spa, was top-notch, and the place was super clean, everywhere. You could tell they really cared about the little things. And a big shout-out to the people at the front desk and who helped with bags. They were super friendly and helpful. The location is lovely and peaceful, even though we did need a quick 10-minute Uber to get into Marlow town.

My one big problem, and it really bothered me, was the crazy number of bees all over the place. They were everywhere outside, which was a bit annoying, but the worst part was they somehow kept getting into our room, even when we kept all the windows shut tight. It was a real pain and definitely made it harder to fully relax sometimes.

Beautiful old building with lovely grounds . Great views. They have not done anything to spoil it, all the rooms are in the old house, not like so many country house hotels where most of the rooms are in some ugly modern extension. Very nice pool.

Food and drink very expensive! For dinner £75 for 3 courses, excluding service and vegetables , so by the time you’ve added a few drinks , some side dishes and service , it’s well over £100 a head for dinner. Plumbing need a bit of updating , radiators in our room weren’t working due to airlocks but reception told us that maintenance team don’t work weekends!!

A stunning hotel from the sweeping drive to the interior full of history, an raf reconnaissance in the 1940s. The room we had to celebrate my husbands birthday was beautiful, airy and large. The breakfasts are fabulous not buffet style but a proper menu to choose from and waited on. The spa and treatments were perfect to just chill out. The staff are friendly and attentive. To top it off the hotel has beautiful views to the Thames and hills, with lovely grounds and manicured gardens to walk in. A gem of a hotel.

Nothing

Having stayed a year ago, we returned this year for another family celebration, and the experience was every bit as good as last time. Very comfortable rooms with lovely high quality sheets and towels. The dinner in the restaurant was delicious; we couldn't fault any aspect of it, and breakfast was also great. Once again, the staff really made the occasion special and it was nice to see some familiar faces - they manage to hit the perfect note between formality and friendliness, and are attentive without being obsequious.

The spa was crowded, but that's only to be expected on a Friday evening and we were still able to enjoy a swim.

Lovely stay. Staff were very friendly and helpful. They arranged a taxi into Marlow for us and also allowed us late check out so we could enjoy the spa for longer in the morning. Spa was lovely and breakfast was great.

Spa was quite small, but it was as described. However as it was small there are only about 20 loungers so it fills up quickly. Our first day we went down at 4pm and it was quite busy - there were no loungers available so had to put towels on the side. It was a lot quieter in the morning which was lovely, but all loungers had gone by 10.30am. We did go in feb half term and the weather wasn't great, so likely that these factors contributed to the business / more people being in the spa

Excellent food and food servers. The breakfast that was included was magnificent. The bar needs a bigger menu. Too few choices. The pool and gym were outstanding. And the grounds were spectacular.

The room was worn especially the bathroom. Shower bordered on dangerous getting in and out. Needs more wall handles . Couldn't see myself in front of the bathroom sink mirror. I'm 6 foot and had to squat to see myself. Toliet took several flushes to flush. Ventilation fan in bathroom did not work. Steamed the room up. Otherwise room was beautiful.

Celebrating 29th anniversary! The staff were amazing 10/10 experience. The light lunch and breakfast was really lovely . Swimming pool and spa area very calm and relaxing . The grounds were lovely and enjoyable to walk round .

My only negative would be the bed , I was expecting a double bed and unfortunately it was two singles pushed together, which was disappointing and uncomfortable due to the dip in the middle, so sleep quality was poor , I would suggest adding a couple more pillow to the room (if possible )

Excellent breakfast and exceptional service from Adam. He was always very friendly, a real credit to hotel and always had a smile on his face. Some staff were less friendly and difficult to communicate with due to language barrier.

The cleanliness of some of the rooms. There was a dirty tissue left in a room from the previous occupant and not cleaned up! The great hall was VERY chilly and therefore not inviting at all. A great shame as it was beautifully decorated, as was the rest of the hotel. Pool was a little cool too. I spoke to the reception staff twice regarding having a waste facility bin in my room as I have a stoma and need to empty and change the bags. They reassured me and said they would speak to housekeeping but I never received a bin so had to leave the bags on the bathroom floor!

The room was spacious and homely, with a big comfortable bed! Modern bathroom with lovely lighting features. Setting is tranquil - hotel surrounded by breathtaking views. We attended a wedding and food was delicious. All staff were very friendly and helpful. Spa was clean and peaceful.

Only comment is that the bedroom windows needed a clean as there were cobwebs all over the outside of the windows. Not a big deal at all, but not what I expected considering the high standard I had seen in everything else.

Stunning, historical building. Beautifully dressed for Christmas. Great spa though the steam room was out of service. Amazing grounds. Lovely room. Great could really go on.

The thing that let it down was the dinner menu. We had booked for a festive menu and the options were not great and used quite cheap ingredients. Full disclosure we chose not to eat there on the basis of the menu so can’t rate it but the menu seemed so uninspiring and poor value for what was on offer we left to get a curry. We did speak to the hotel before doing so. Hope they get their kitchen sorted as otherwise everything was great.
