On our last stay i couldn't get over the place, it has a conservatery built onto the front which looked beautiful from the outside and... more

I booked this hotel last October while planning a surprise trip to the Guinness Rugby Final for my husband. When I booked the hotel was called Pope's Grotto and their website looked very promising. I was not disappointed. In the mean-time the hotel had undergone a transformation - a new 'conservatory' had been added to the front of the bar... more

We stay here each year when going to the rugby, it's about 20 min walk to the Stoop/Twickenham stadium and about a 10-15 min walk from the station. Bus from Richmond station goes right past it. Handy for Twickenham centre. Fairly quiet area. nothing fancy but suits us. One site parking (no extra cost). Breakfast is nice and was included... more

My boyfriend and I stayed here after seeing REM at Twickenham Stadium, the room (209) was lovely, big and airy with a lovely en suite with gorgeous complimentary toiletries. The staff were very polite, friendly and helpful. There was a good selection for breakfast and overall we were really happy as the hotel is situated in a quiet area of... more

Overall Popes Grotto is a nice small hotel attached to a pub. My first concern was that it would be noisy but very quiet. Rooms double glazed plus aircon but pub itslef is a quiet place generally. Negative points where: no frdge or bar in the room which most hotels of a reasonable level seem to have as standard nowadays.... more

We stayed here for one night for a wedding. Overall a nice hotel but could do with redecorating in some areas. In a good location with ample car parking facilities. Located in a quiet residential area only a ten minute walk from the high street shops and York House. Rooms are a decent size with a good size bathroom and... more

Stayed on a Saturday night. Nice enough room but could hear the man in the next room talking clearly enough to ascertain he was Australian! Despite reviews last year saying the hotel desperately needed redecoration this obviously has not been picked up on. Entrance area round lift and area round downstairs loos really grotty. Needs paint and new wallpaper urgently.... more

We stayed at Popes Grotto for one night as we had tickets for a concert at Twickenham Rugby Ground (Bon Jovi were fantastic, by the way). We arrived at lunch time and as the weather was so pleasant, we took a picnic lunch across the road and spent a few hours by the Thames - watching the variety of boats... more

We were walking the Thames Path over a 10-day period (recommended if you have strong feet!) so we booked this as the last overnight stop before reaching central London - it's right along the official Thames Path route. It looks nothing much from the outside, but this shows appearances can be deceptive. We arrived to find a spacious, well-equipped room... more

Great choice

Popes Grotto Twickenham. I had organised a trip into the London area for a FA cup semi final at Wembley. Having visited Twickenham for rugby matches I knew this would make a good base to stay as it is about 30 mins from Wembley. After reviewing the website and talking to my friends,we decided to make a booking at Popes... more
