The Mitre Hampton Court

This charming historic hotel is a wonderful choice for anyone looking to escape London for a little day trip. After a lovely cruise down the Thames, returning to the comfort of my room was exactly what I needed, and it completely washed away the tiredness of the day.Mr Peter was exceptionally attentive and kind, and very thoughtfully offered me an early check-in before I had even had the chance to ask.The brasserie on the terrace is another delightful spot to dine. The food I ordered was enjoyable, although, if I may say so as a bit of a foodie 🙈, there is perhaps a little room for improvement.A special thank you also to the lovely lady at reception, whose name I unfortunately failed to ask, for so kindly looking after my bag while I visited the palace. Such thoughtful touches truly made my stay all the more enjoyable. 💐🙏

Beautiful period hotel overlooking the River Thames. Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Lovely room and great choice of dinning and drinking spaces.

Stayed at the Mitre years ago, it has been renovated and was so much nicer. Room was clean as was the bathroom, I wasn’t keen on the toiletries that were in the bathroom, but I usually travel with my own anyway. There was a/c in my room and considering the whether it was very welcomed. I was given an upgrade to a room that overlooked the river which was very nice. Only one complaint was the Service in the Restaurant that overlooked the river and the Cooked Breakfast which was not as nice as I remember when I stayed before. They now serve Streaky Bacon which was very fatty, they used to serve Back Bacon, I ordered one egg but got two both over cooked, hash browns which were like the ones you buy at the supermarket. I’m sure they were fresh potatoes cut into cubes cooked with onion, before. You seem to have to serve yourself to coffee, tea and juice at the buffet unlike a server that used to comes to the table. The Restaurant seemed a lot smaller as was the Buffet. As a senior I prefer to have a server bring everything to me as I do have a bad wrist and worried I would drop something. I had paid in advance for the Breakfast but decided to go elsewhere to eat my last morning. Other than that I enjoyed my stay which is right opposite Hampton Court Palace and the paths that you can walk along the river. You can catch boats that take you up the river and I think you can hire small boats at the Mitre. Nice restaurants, pubs also close by.
