This was a really special experience booked to celebrate my husband’s birthday. We were upgraded to a deluxe room with glorious views of the drive and clock tower. The bed was very comfortable, the food delicious and the service from all staff is first class and noticeably so. The breakfast was the best I have had in any hotel ever. The history of the house is fascinating and part of its charm.

This was our first visit to Cliveden and it didn't disappoint. It is a beautiful building with so much history. It is such a privilege to be able to stay there. High ceilings, wooden panelling, sculptures, woven wall coverings. Very impressive. When you come up the drive it is an awesome inspiring sight. The building is also very clean and well maintained. Everywhere we could see was perfect. How they achieve that, I can't imagine! The food was amazing too. We had breakfast and dinner both nights we stayed and it was delicious. Great menu with a good range of choices, well cooked and beautifully presented. We enjoyed a few hours in the spa too in the indoor pool, hot tub and jacuzzi and just lying on the loungers and relaxing. Then there are the grounds. Absolutely stunning. Walking by the Thames, through the bluebell woods, amongst the trees and the gardens. The service was impeccable from start to finish too. It was just perfect. If I was going to give any suggestions it would be for them to run tours and/or provide a little booklet so we could really understand what we were looking at!

A stay at Cliveden House is truly an amazing experience, everything from the view as you come up the drive to check in, the warm and friendly welcome, the beautiful room, the food in The Astor Grill, evening turn down and breakfast view down the grounds and beyond. A stay here should be on everyone’s bucket list. Thank you to all the staff to making this such a special stay

Wonderful spa experience! They were so accommodating and friendly. Missed my first massage due to a travel delay and management moved some appointments around to get me in the next day. I was so grateful for their help and understanding. Wonderful and relaxing massage. Imogen was fantastic. Will be back!!
