The fairly recent renovation has transformed this lovely building and offers considerable comfort and facilities. Elegant lounge and bars. Pretty coffee shop serving good coffee and good 'home made' snacks. Our bedroom was very comfortable and as our stay 'fell' in the middle of a very hot period the air conditioning was really appreciated. The hotel is managed very professionally by the affable, Andrew Oxley who has a very friendly, helpful team The position within the town and overlooking the river make this an excellent place to relax and enjoy Henley and its beautiful surrounding countryside. We will return!

Lovely stay by the Thames

Lovely room over looking the river. Nice little touch, welcome card from person who cleaned our room, and bed sheets turned down in the early evening. Beautiful old hotel with great vistas. Breakfast was superb.

We had a wonderful relaxing break at the Relais. The staff were helpful, the room was comfortable and clean, and the location was perfect. Breakfast was very delicious. Only improvement would be for a pot of tea to be served rather than a cup.

Lovely hotel, great setting and communal areas. Really loved waking up and looking directly out to the river Thames. Comfy bed and pillow, great bathroom with powerful shower. Good variety of food at breakfast. Awful, weak filter coffee served at breakfast which really let it down. Really needs a decent coffee machine.

Lovely location overlooking the river. However if you book a river view room ask for the second floor because there is very little privacy on the first floor. Passengers in double decker buses waiting for the traffic lights to change can look straight into the first floor windows. There is a very quiet lift to the river view rooms. There is no parking at the hotel but the station car park is quite close by and only £6 per 24 hours when we stayed which is quite reasonable.
