Hotel looks beautiful at first but tired on closer inspection. Our room was boiling hot with no aircon and a loud extractor fan close by which was super noisy. Bathroom wasn’t well maintained. Wasn’t really worth the money and no time to visit spa. Breakfast however was exceptional.

It could be a lovely hotel if the staff smiled and had a clue what was going on. There was a lovely and friendly lady on reception, and one of the waiter serving in the evening was friendly, as was one of the bar staff (Josh). Everyone else seemed a bit surprised to have guests, and the women working at the bar weee positively rude in their demeanour.
It could definitely do with an injection of cash to update it. The money all seems to have gone on an overly complicated lighting system in the bedroom!

First room we checked into was very dirty, the helpful staff changed our room to one that looked over the bins as there was very little available, i would not stay here again, the building is lovely and has a great history but the cleanliness and lack of food on the menu was poor, we ate here on the first night and the meal was ok, the second nights food was terrible, the staff did apologise in the morning but still took the £72.00 for fish and chips and a falafal salad, most other choices on the menu where not available.

The property is historic and the grounds are beautiful. The staff was not particular helpful or friendly. We reserved a superior room and were excited about our stay. Sadly when we got into our room we found the temperature to be around 95 degrees in the room and the only relief available from the hotel was a fan. We sweated the entire night with little to no sleep. The next day and after considerable discussion with the front desk we were able to convince them to give us a room with ac. (Keep in mind we had paid for a superior room). Sadly there were no apologies or empathy from the hotel management as to how uncomfortable we were—in fact, we were treated as an annoyance. Later, we decided to celebrate with dinner that night at the hotel— knowing we may finally get a good night sleep. We ordered our dinner on the hotel patio and sat outside with the other guests. As we were eating dinner, we could not get our server’s attention as he was busy pulling up and taking away all of the seat cushions and umbrellas while we were all eating. He even took the cushions at our table. There was a wedding party next to us and their cushions and umbrellas were also being removed at 8 pm with no consideration of how disruptive this was to everyone. These are just 2 examples of how poor the service is at the hotel—a place where customer service training is much needed.

There was no hot water on the rooms for our entire day. We advised the hotel the evening we arrived and again the morning we checked out.

The reception team advised they would raise it with maintenance, but no further updates were given. At check out the receptionist just apologies and explained that they would get it fixed for people staying later in the week! A basic amenity when staying at a hotel.

Had a lovely stay at the hotel. Staff were lovely, extremely clean and beautiful grounds. Had a wonderful chat with one of the groundsmen. Marlow is just a short drive away.
The reason I haven’t given an “excellent” was because the massage wasn’t as relaxing as I would expect. No calming spa music and very hot in the treatment room. You can also only use the spa until 11am in the day of check out, and whilst I understand they don’t want people there all day we didn’t need to leave until 12.
I would stay again if in the areas

We stayed for two nights 4th and 5th June as we were attending a wedding elsewhere on 5th June. The first night was fine but on the morning of the 5th the hotel advised we would have to move rooms as they had a wedding at the hotel and the bridegroom had specifically asked for the room we were staying in. We agreed to pack our stuff up and the hotel would move to the alternative room when we left for our wedding at 1.30. All through the morning we kept getting calls from reception asking when we would be ready to move as the bridegroom had arrived and the cleaners needed to clean the room. The cleaners came to the door, another guest came to our room and reception told us we would incur a late checkout fee although we were stayin that night!! When we returned from our wedding at about 12.30 the roome key did not work for the new room and it took reception 3 attempts to give us access to our new room. This is definitely not the service expected from a hotel of this class.

Advertised as Family friendly so we booked an expensive 1 night stay. For myself my wife and my 4 year old daughter as it had a swimming pool. We were told when we arrived my daughter could only access the pool if she was 5. This was only hidden in the T&Cs and not flag until we arrived despite giving my daughters DOB.

We were going to get a relatively early and restful night but the loud base and music until midnight put pay to that. Our room was facing the open door of the after venue and again this wasn’t flagged at all.

When you pay £500+ for a one night stay you don’t expect this. Could have been a lovely stay but definitely tainted.

Danesfield House is a delight. The staff were all super helpful and welcoming. Dinner on the Terrace was stunning on a warm spring evening.
The grounds are wonderful and I'd recommend a wander around them. And the spa facilities included in the room price was a bonus - the sauna and steam room especially.
The room itself was relatively small but very comfortable, and the bathroom with a bath was great. The complementary toileteries were very luxurious.
The only minor grumble was that I was surprised by instant coffee in the rooms.

The jacuzzi was not operational on both day and this was disappointing. I feel something could have been done to compensate for this. The pool was also a touch cold for me. I booked 2 treatments. I was initially over charged for these but this was rectified when I made it known. Cocktails were fantastic although expensive, especially with service charges added on!

The hotel is in a great location and approach is lovely. Spa was well appointed.
I accept it is an old building but it is in need to repair and updating.
Carpets worn, lift out of order and no chance for disabled access to our room without walking up 3 flights of stairs.

The presentation and quality of food in the evening was exceptional, however the service was extremely slow. Breakfast was speedier, however the order was delivered wrong and the food was obviously pre-cooked as it was dry and touch. Shame.

Areas of the hotel looked tired. Breakfast service somewhat chaotic, and surprised to be told what time we were having breakfast (0830 on Sunday!). Plates were cold, so dinner on Friday night and breakfast Sat/Sun were cold. The tuna starter wasn't particularly fresh.

Staff were helpful throughout; but areas seemed to lack customer focus - stood for several minutes at the Spa reception whilst 3 staff continued their conversation and didn't even acknowledge us. The treatments (which were excellent) started several minutes late but annoyingly finished promptly.

The hotel was extremely busy with back-to-back weddings, and most guest rooms appeared to be out of action due to these events, which was already disappointing. room, however, was particularly poor in condition. It was very dated, with an old wall-mounted hairdryer, cobwebs, and several insects including daddy long legs and moths. The carpet was faded and worn, leaving the room feeling tired and neglected.
For October, the large room was also uncomfortably cold, and as there was no controllable heating, staff could only provide a small portable heater, which was completely inadequate for a room of that size. The bed and pillows were hard and uncomfortable, making it difficult to get any rest.
Additionally, our room was located very close to the function areas, and both nights we were disturbed by loud noise from wedding guests shouting and music carrying late into the evening. This made it impossible to relax. It is not a hotel and spa where you can stay for the weekend to unwind — we ended up leaving the hotel on both evenings just to find some peace and quiet.
We were offered an upgrade to a more modern room for an additional £150, but having already spent nearly £600 on our stay, we did not feel we should have to pay more simply to be comfortable. No alternative ‘superior room’ was offered, only larger rooms at additional cost, which we did not want or need — we just wanted to be comfortable for the stay we had already paid for.
Overall, this was a very disappointing e

The only complaint I have was that our neighbours kept banging their door shut throughout the night, obviously this is not anything the the staff would be able to have changed but very disruptive for our one night stay.
Breakfast didn’t seem to run that smoothly. We asked for toast that came out after our other breakfast order had been finished and taken away. However it was a very nice breakfast and the toast was worth waiting for.

We had a really lovely 3 night stay here last week. The hotel itself is beautiful and the grounds are immaculate. The spa and gym is fantastic with a variety of treatments, super friendly and accommodating therapists.

The room itself was large and with everything you could ask for. Really well laid out. My only suggestion would be to highlight that there are fitness classes in the welcome book - I love Pilates and only found out there was a Pilates class happening as I saw a poster in the gym area when I went to meet my husband.

The only niggle I had is one day the biscuits weren’t replenished by housekeeping in our room.

We stayed here with our baby and every person we met was so welcoming and understanding - not once did we feel we were an inconvenience- even when she cried! Really thankful for how lovely the atmosphere was made by all of the staff we met.

A truly wonderful stay from a very tired set of parents - thank you for helping us relax and feel restored! We will be back.

No Longer Luxury! Tired and Scrimp on costs

This used to be a beautiful hotel that we recommended but is now very tired and clearly struggling due to going into administration in 2022 and acquired by Danesfield Hotel and Resorts Ltd.
We booked a Deluxe room that should have had a Four Poster bed or Access to Terrace - Room 308 has neither. (It does have a Half Tester Headboard which is not a 4 Poster).

There is no lift as it doesn't work, when I asked how long it had been out of order I was told 3 years! We were on the 2nd/3rd floor (or 2.5 flights of stairs) so whilst I embrace exercise this was not appreciated after my room neither had a 4 poster bed or Terrace Access.

The reason we booked was for a wedding anniversary as we got married at Danesfield House. We are repeat customers and have stayed many times before. Sadly this will most likely be our last stay until the hotel has undergone some serious repair & maintenance.

The staff were polite but not many around and you can tell the hotel has undergone serious cost cutting exercises so its no longer a luxury hotel. Such a shame as it could be amazing if initiative was applied and tweaks were made which wouldn't cost that much if anything.

The food was OK, however, we Paid for an Afternoon Tea/Picnic with a bottle of Champagne and was given a bottle of English Sparkling wine... Definitely not Champagne as advised so this was very misleading as was our room and scrimping on costs.

LOYAL RETURNING CUSTOMERS LOST AND WILL NO LONGER RECOMMEND TO FRIENDS

Pay for bigger better room for restful stay

I knowlingly booked my stay aware it was a very old character ful hotel, i certainly wasnt expecting all the new mod cons like a Jaoanese toilet seat or even air con (aware from other reviews of the smaller rooms)
And u actually enjoyed the history, the old paintngs, furniture etc

The staff were excellent, special mention to the evening dining staff, though maybe the younger bar staff of an evening could keep their conversations a little more professional when guests are sat there

If i was in a Holiday Inn i wouldnt even think twice but when youre paying such high prices, you expect a certain level of decorum

The grounds are beautiful and i enjoyed finding little nooks to read my book or listen to music

The breakfast price if not included in the room is extortionate at £26 in my opinion. It was ok but not THAT good to be worth £26 im afraid.

No coffee machine or fridge in room.

There was a fan provided which i had to keep on all night as was so hot, this didnt bother me in itself but it didnt really do the job, plus the bed was two singles joined together, i imagine this is due to the room being in the eves and not being able to get a double in there perhaps but it made my sleep totally broken, the bed was so uncomfortable, its my main issue with the stay and the main thing you need for a restful weekend!

So sadly for all the lovely history, staff, amazing dinner and grounds, the reason for my stay was rest and i came away more tired than i arrived

Very hot room

It’s a beautiful property. Having said that, there are rooms that get insanely hot, with no air conditioning and my bedroom had one window only. I was literally dripping with sweat until the room finally started cooling off around 11pm. Only cool enough for sleep at 1am. I raised this with management shortly after arriving and was told that there was nothing they could do about external factors such as heat. There was a fan but blowing hot air around the room really wasn’t helping.

We experienced a slight miscommunication between the hotel and spa on our last day, but the staff at the spa did their best to accommodate. Would highly recommend both hotel and spa for a relaxing break.

I had a special 3 night break planned and booked to celebrate my birthday, several months prior ; but a couple of days before the start day, I was informed that the hotel could only put us up for two days, and the alternatives they offered, were not suitable.
So my special birthday break, was ruined by them, and although they ungraded me from a deluxe room (for 3 nights) to a duplex room ( for 2 nights), the daily rate for the 2 nights, was higher than the daily rate for three ! A pretty poor show, I hope you will agree. In the many, many years of my booking hotels all over the world, this has never happened before, and I very much hope it never will, again. But certainly, I would never use Danesfield house again.

The hotel had beautiful views and gardens but the building was showing l poor maintenance, lack of repainting and threadbare carpet etc. The evening meal was £65 per person for 2 courses, unfortunately the quality of the food did not reflect the price and was very disappointing. There was a wedding reception at the same time and the service in the restaurant was very slow with not enough staff serving the guests.

Great location

Amazing location and fantastic room( suite).
The only let down was room service food( sandwiches) were stale and the pillows were very flat and uncomfortable.

Lovely hotel, in need of some attention

We had 2 nights in this very beautiful traditional hotel.
Our room was spacious, if a little tired.
We arrived a little early and was told our room would be ready at 3. We got the impression that even if our room had been ready, we would not have got the key until 3.
The lift is broken and it was quite a hike to our room.
The corridors, as you might expect in an old hotel are confusing and there is a distinct lack of signage.
The toilet in our room did not flush properly- we had to pour kettles of water down it to clear it. We reported it and although I think it had been looked at, it still didn’t work properly.
On the first morning, when we returned to the room, the only indication the maid had been was the folded toilet paper. Dirty cups left and not replaced, bed looked partially made etc. we reported this also to reception, but it was not rectified.
Breakfast was terrible. Excellent choice of food, but it had been left so long before being delivered, it was cold and congealed. The server took the cost of our bill.
Spa was good and the pool was quiet for my early morning swim.
The hotel and grounds are very lovely, but they need more staff, some upgrades and an injection of atmosphere.
