A wonderful stay !
Pros:

What a fantastic stay at The Mitre Hotel in Hampton Court! From the moment we arrived, the welcome from the staff was warm, friendly and genuinely attentive. The reception team were extremely helpful and made everything effortless.
The restaurant staff were superb – professional, welcoming and clearly dedicated to providing a great experience. A special mention must go to Dan, who was absolutely outstanding and truly went above and beyond. His service made our visit even more memorable.
The accommodation was excellent – comfortable, beautifully presented and very relaxing. Breakfast was also superb, with great quality and a wonderful start to the day.
Overall, a brilliant experience with exceptional service throughout. We would not hesitate to return and highly recommend The Mitre to anyone visiting the area.

A lovely weekend,in a beautiful old building in a glorious situation,surrounded by history.
Pros:

The breakfast was lovely. All the staff were very attentive especially the young man in the evening who showed us to the library and poured us out a madeira. He also gave us a history of the hotel. When I had left my fob in my bedroom,again no problem as he brought me a replacement

Cons:

I would have liked more places to plug in my various appliances eg. Mobile phone,hearing aids,watch etc to recharge. Only 1 of the 2 worked and that seemed to be intermittent. If they could have been by the bed,that too would have been more useful. I leaflet on how to use the coffee machine would be useful. I am 80 but it is different from mine. The nice Housekeeping lady explained it to me

Hübsches Hotel während einer Hochzeit
Pros:

Das Zimmer "Charles II" war sehr geräumig und hatte ein großes Bett. Das war auch sehr komfortabel. Das Bedezimmer hat ein Wnne und es gibt einen Zugang zu einem kleinen Innenhof. Frühstück sehr solide.

Cons:

Im Zimmer gab es keinen Sessel, lediglich einen kleinen Stu am Schreibtisch. Der Safe war auf dem Boden des Schrankes angebracht und schwer zu erreichen. Die typisch Britischen Wasserhähne, jeweils einer für kaltes und einer für warmes Wasser sind unpraktisch. Keine Handtuchhalter am Waschbecken. Keine Duschbrause, Das Bad steht nach dem Duschen unter Wasser. Ein Schuhanzieher wäre hilfreich.
