One of the world's finest luxury hotels, this grand stately home is set in the heart of the Berkshire countryside on an idyllic bend in the River Thames. From the moment you are ushered into the beautiful Great Hall with its grand fireplace, you will be treated with the very highest standards of quality, with excellence in every detail. Cliveden has everything you would expect from a country retreat, and so much more.

We stayed at the National Trust’s New Cottage down on the river Thames and then visited Cliveden Hotel for a champagne afternoon tea one day - and the full tasting menu dinner the next day. Cliveden Hotel was dressed up in all its Christmas finery and looked amazing. The afternoon tea and the dinner were both VERY good. Great service, decor, atmosphere - and most importantly wonderful food. Would highly recommend for a special occasion….or even a more everyday occasion if you can afford it!

We loved our afternoon tea at Cliveden. Customer service was great. The atmosphere lovely and each item of the high tea delicious. Couldn't recommend Cliveden enough for afternoon tea, especially if celebrating an special occasion.

We have been to Cliveden on many occasions now, even for my husband's 50th birthday celebration. It is a perfect place for romance or just chilling out. I recommend it to all of my friends. Perfect food, wonderful staff and superb rooms. We just love it!!
