  • Şayan from Turkey (9/10)

    Richmond is my favorite area in London, and the Selwyn Hotel was absolutely perfect. The reception staff were very attentive and helpful. The rooms were spotless and beautifully decorated. The location is fantastic—close to the train station and also easily accessible to the city center by taxi or other means. I also loved your Christmas decorations; they added such a warm touch. Everything was amazing!

    More than expected!

  • Michael from Australia (9/10)

    This is a very nice and clean hotel in a lovely area in Richmond, close to many cafes, restaurants, pubs and supermarkets. The room was exactly as described and was very clean and nicely styled. The staff were excellent and assisted us with a late checkout and luggage storage which helped us a lot.

  • James from United Kingdom (9/10)

    Great location with easy parking and very friendly staff. I often stay in Richmond when in London so you can enjoy the benefit of the tube into central and still enjoy a walk in the park or along the river in the morning. The rooms are very well equipped and it was nice to work in the bar area.

  • Bernadette from United Kingdom (9/10)

    Clean lovely room staff very welcoming breakfast amazing great location

  • Anneliese from United Kingdom (8/10)
