We arrived very early in the morning and the desk clerk gave us a free room upgrade for both of the rooms we'd booked so we could check in way before the 3:00 check in time, which was hugely appreciated!

no shower gel in the bathroom as usual for the third time third visit no tissue box in the room or in the bathroom, at a certain level of hotel a tissue box is expected. Room very noisy from above and from the corridor, other parts of the hotel the walls and or ceiling are better insulated. I wish there was an elevator to get to the same level the room is at, I always get a room where there are stairs and with heavy luggage it can be difficult

The Selwyn Hotel could be a really super hotel. Some of it is lovely and we were very happy in part. However, when we arrived in our room, the previous occupant had left clothes in the wardrobe. Which suggests the room was not cleaned well enough before our arrival. We let reception know, they came & removed the clothes but also took all the hangers - which left us with nowhere to hang our clothes. We then decided to watch tv, but the tv did not work - no satellite connection. Someone came to check it, but it wouldn’t work. We didn’t really get an apology and we were not offered any recompense, which was disappointing. It’s a shame as it’s a beautiful hotel - with a bit more care it would be excellent. Or at least if something does go wrong, they should take appropriate actions for better customer service - for example they still charged us £20 for parking when we left, when they could have waived that fee.

Courteous reception staff, stylish property and comfortable room. Bedroom was quite small for the price. Great location. Less than 10min walk from Richmond station and a 30min walk to Kew Gardens.
