I adored this hotel in every aspect. It is warm, charming and the food is divine. What a splendid setting to sit with wonderful food and wine, and look out along the River Thames. Thank you to the wonderful staff - exceptional! more

We loved our stay at the Petersham. Nothing was to much trouble for the staff! more

We booked at the very last minute, getting a far better rate by calling the hotel directly than from any other web site. Our room did not have a view and faced the hillside but it was extremely quiet and we were able to sleep with the large window wide open which is a luxury nowadays. Even so, it was... more

It's a 19th century mansion overlooking the Thames in Richmond, probably the most expensive place to live in England. The place exudes olde-worlde charm and one half expected to see Miss Marple alighting from the lift or indeed George, Harris and J (not forgetting the... more

We stayed here the night before we went on honeymoon. We had been to see the hotel and some others and chose The Petersham because it felt 'warmer' and the staff were so friendly. We were given a room with a large balcony that went around the side of the hotel as well as the back view. The view itself... more
