My husband & I booked this hotel for a short break away from London. Overall this hotel was great, warm friendly staff, good food, very clean & excellent value - we were able to take advantage of one of their offers which was a three night break for the price of two! Do not normally take the time to write... More

First time at the Palace, attending for a conference. Terrific staff, good refreshments water and squash refreshed constantly, together with clean glasses. Coffee and tea served with home made cookies and lovely warm lemony buns. Very nice room overlooking the gardens, spotlessly clean, lovely big bath towels, good toiletries if required. Food and service in the dining room was excellent,... More

A wonderful traditional hotel. Set in over 20 acres. 9 hole golf course, tennis, snooker, putting etcetra its all here. The food choice just gets better and better. Their special offers are very good value. We had a suite overlooking the gardens and golf course. Its spacious bedroom and large sitting room was excellent. The majority of guests have stayed...

I visited with my whole family for Christmas Day lunch this year. We live close to The Palace so obviously can't comment on the accommodation but as far as the 'meal experience' was concerned it was unbeatable, absolutely fantastic. The staff were very accommodating and eating in the main dining room is a lovely experience. Not only is the scale... More

A great hotel - the service was absolutely excellent from the moment we entered. The facilities are excellent. Reception staff are mannerly and conduct themselves in a good manner - everyone smiles and welcomes you in a vibrant, but subtle way. The ambience of dining is absolutely superb - a huge choice of foods for breakfast and dinner - the... More

We have stayed at the Palace on and off for ten years or more. If anything the experience is getting better. Hotel in excellent shape and can't be beaten for comfort in the lounge, ambiance in the dining room and quality of the sports facilities. Staff are really excellent and one of the delights is that many have been there... More

We have stayed previously at the Palace four times for Christmas but this year also included New Year with friends. Many of the rooms have been refurbished and are lovely- as our friends said "For a hotel bedroom this is good as it gets". Our room, which we have had three times previously is "tired" but due for refurbishent soon.... More

I've just spent yet another 3 days here and love it ......for several reasons particularly for it's unusual 'quirkiness'. You can almost feel the history and the original photos are there for all to see. The staff are excellent. The food is great. Plenty of facilities. The gardens are beautiful. Walks are great. It's only a short walk to the... More

I treated my husband to a five day break at the Palace, they had a special deal on for three days with Dinner, Bed and Breakfast, so it was good value for money. We originally booked a standard twin room, but got upgraded to a garden room. The room was very big and the two beds were very comfortable. The... More
