On Friday the 14th of June my wife and I attended a wedding reception at Great Fosters and were very impressed by the building and the very expansive grounds however the bride and groom had a lunchtime 'slot' and we had been asked to take lunch between the hours of 1 to 4 in the afternoon, in a room on...

Thank you for your recent review.

My wife and I stayed here for our 5th anniversary back in December 2012. One of the reasons I chose Great Fosters was the fantastic proximity to Heathrow Airport as we had an early flight in the morning and due to the occasion, fancied somewhere a bit special. I booked the room over the phone with a gentleman called Chris... More

Just come back from a wonderful experience at Great Fosters. The Head Gardener gave an excellent tour and very interesting tour, the garden is fascinating. Lunch was really lovely and the staff were very warm and welcoming. Would definitely go there again, well worth the £35 it cost us each.

We've stayed at the hotel twice now, both times we were in the main building and the rooms have been spectacular. We've also been several times for dinner and while GF never fails to impress, they have outdone themselves with their new restaurant 'The Tudor Room', the food was amazing and the sommelier really knows his stuff (quiz him on...

We needed a hotel for the night before our flight out of Heathrow. Originally I had a reservation at one of the chain hotels by the airport. Then I read a TA mention of Great Fosters Lodge and decided it was a more interesting way to spend the last night of our vacation rather than at an airport chain hotel.... More

For cream tea a stroll in the garden and a nice relaxing evening in a luxurious room. Convenient for Heathrow, Windsor, Wentworth etc. This really is a unique hotel. Anyone staying at one of the chain hotels near Heathrow should be kicking themselves for missing out on this. Hotel staff were excellent as well. We really were nervous that it... More

Our business travel was made much more pleasant by elegant, impeccably maintained surroundings, and professional friendly staff (especially Stephen, Amanda and Amber). This is a venue with interesting history and a stroll through the extraordinary manicured grounds cleared the head after a long day of meetings. Stunning wedding venue. The rooms are comfortable, nicely decorated and well appointed. Moulton Brown... More

This hotel is truly a hidden gem, quirky, elegant and incredible service. With so many of the large chain hotels in the UK, they are lifeless and devoid of any service, so it was a pleasure to find this great hotel.

Stayed 2 nights and everything wonderful, staff very attentive, nothing too much trouble. Wonderful food both for dinner and breakfast. Like staying in an historic National Trust house. Peaceful location in the countryside near Egham, Surrey. Lovely gardens to wander around, almost like a movie set.

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
Probably built as a Royal Hunting lodge and very much a stately home since the 16th century, Great Fosters is now a prestigious hotel. Set amongst 50 acres of gardens and parkland, the hotel is a Grade One listed building blessed with the grandeur of 16th century England and luxurious modern facilities. Its past is evident in the mullioned windows, tall chimneys, fireplaces and brick finials, while the Saxon moat, crossed by a Japanese bridge, surrounds three sides of the formal garden. All the suites and bedrooms are individually decorated. The bedrooms in the Main House are adorned with tapestries and antiques, whilst the bedrooms in The Cloisters are more contemporary in style. The Coach House, refurbished in 2008, offers luxurious accommodation with the latest plasma screens, i-pod docking stations and fabulous bathrooms. The hotel offers a choice of two restaurants, The Estate Grill and The Tudor Room at Great Fosters. The Estate Grill is less formal and serves a simple and seasonal menu with many of the dishes cooked on a Josper grill. The Tudor Room at Great Fosters is an intimate, more sophisticated dining experience with just 24 covers set in a lavishly decorated dining room. ... more   less
