A great stay with excellent staff. The only downsides were the TV not working and WiFi not connecting to our phones (laptop was fine though). We would stay again.

The hotel was beautiful and wonderfully convenient. We had some grumbles about the room we were initially allocated but the staff were patient and receptive to our concerns and quickly provided us a new room with zero challenge. Wouldn't think of staying anywhere else for our next visit to Richmond.

The property is very nicely looked anfter and finished to a very high spec. The staff were very professional and friendly. The hotel is perfectly situated in Richmond and is close to everything. The only downside was to discover that it costs £20 per night to park the car! However the cost of the hotel was reasonable so not a disaster. I would definitely recommend this hotel and hope to return soon.

The Selwyn is a very well specced hotel, the staff are friendly and helpful and the rooms are finished and equipped to a high standard. Just be aware the small rooms are just that, quite small. Overall we had a very enjoyable stay.
