Family room was convenient and clean, enough space for four. Breakfast needs improvement. Table was squashed in a corner with insufficient room. Food fine but not memorable. Reception staff were nice and helpful.

Lovely stay by the Thames

Lovely room over looking the river. Nice little touch, welcome card from person who cleaned our room, and bed sheets turned down in the early evening. Beautiful old hotel with great vistas. Breakfast was superb.

Lovely hotel, great setting and communal areas. Really loved waking up and looking directly out to the river Thames. Comfy bed and pillow, great bathroom with powerful shower. Good variety of food at breakfast. Awful, weak filter coffee served at breakfast which really let it down. Really needs a decent coffee machine.

A classic hotel with the ideal location on the Thames. The reception staff were all welcoming and lovely people. My room was beautiful and well' soundproofed, as I had a 2nd floor overlooking the bridge and did not hear any traffic sounds. Good night sleeps!! Squeaky clean. I loved the heated bathroom floor. The spacious bathroom was beautiful, stylish marble floor and walls, bright & cheerful. Highly recommend The Relais.
