Skiddle's Hotel of the Month: Richmond Gate Hotel

We’d like to introduce you to our brand new feature here on Skiddle: Hotel of the Month, where we take a closer look at our favourite hoteliers from right across the UK. This time we’re zeroing in on The Richmond Gate Hotel, in Richmond-upon-Thames.

Richmond is one of the most beautiful locations in Greater London, resting as it does against one of Thames more scenic meanders, boasting rich historical background and stunning views throughout.

Located right next to the famously paradisaic Richmond Park and but a mile away from Richmond Tube station, giving you easy access to London, Richmond Gate Hotel is certainly well located. Kew gardens is a mere 15 minute drive away, so if your stay is leisurely you're in for an absolute treat. Saying that, with transport links so strong, those on business are ideally placed to get quickly and effortlessly plugged into the city. But what about the rooms?

Well, this four star hotel has fully air-conditioned rooms, alongside obligatory television sets and tea and coffee making facilities. There’s even the added option of upgrading to a four poster bed if you fancy enjoying a bit more of the high life. Health and leisure club ‘Cedars’ allow free access for hotel patrons, and has in its repertoire an indoor pool, a luxurious spa, hot tub, steam room and sauna. If that all seems a bit too relaxing though, there's also a gym for those that want to burn off a few pounds and keep trim.

Elsewhere, the hotel’s Park Restaurant is a masterclass in fine dining, with guests enjoying an intimate but elegant setting in which to tuck into some exquisite culinary treats, no doubt counteracting your hard gym work out, but hey, you’re on holiday. With plenty to see and do in Richmond, and being so close to London, The Richmond Gate hotel provides the ideal combination of location and luxury, perfect whether you're on business, or after relaxation and recreation.
