Fantastic decor and customer service. Car park is limited and some spaces very small. We booked “a Selwyn” room which is said to be bigger but is still a very small room with no safe. Breakfast was fantastic with wide choice of good quality ingredients.

We'll be there again in summer!

Really nice hotel, clean, the location is fantastic! The customer service is outstanding, lovely breakfast and coffe machine in the room 😍. Things to improve but not a reason for not staying in this hotel again. 1. The (cheapest) room is very small for 2 people, we'll pay the little extra for the extra space next time. 2. The parking have an additional cost even though the actual parking lot is in the property. (Cheaper than NCPC!)

Super cute boutique hotel within easy tube ride to Kew Gardens and car ride to Hampton Court Palace. Close walk down to the Thames and the Green. Lots of restaurants, pubs and shopping too. Wonderful breakfast that came with the room rate. Friendly staff as well!

We had a lovely stay at The Selwyn last weekend. All of the staff were very helpful. The common areas around the hotel were really nicely decorated and clean. The classic room was lovely and just what we needed. Walkable to the common, park, shops, restaurants and bars. I would definitely stay here again.

Don't Lie

Checked in early, left a bag. Asked if they could secure it, the receptionist said yes. Came back later and the back was where I left it! Not secure at all...

Great value for money. It looks grand from the outside. The reception area is classy with a cool 1920s kind of feel. The bedroom was small, but that didn't bother us. The breakfast was first class. I think you'd struggle to find anything this quality for the price in Richmond. Worth paying the extra £20 for overnight parking.

Excellent hotel, staff very helpful. Beautiful reception area. Regarding a couple of maintenance issues in room needing to be fixed, assured they would be by reception. Otherwise room beautifully presented and clean. We would certainly like a return visit. Location perfect with on site parking. .
