We have enjoyed a wonderful stay at the Selwyn - the hotel is perfectly located for access to Richmond and the station, the rooms are clean and very well decorated, however the standout is the staff who are lovely and welcoming. We want to especially thank Kelly the receptionist who was kind enough to upgrade our room and also left a birthday card in our room which was such a thoughtful touch! The general manager is also very friendly and attentive and both went out of their way to make our stay memorable. This has become our go to hotel for when we stay in London and we would not hesitate to recommend it to others!

Wonderful hotel. Comfortable bed & bedding. Lovely boutique hotel feel. Close to transit. We walked to Kew and took the bus back at the end of the long day. Lovely sitting areas inside & out. Staff recommendation close by breakfast spot is excellent. Lots of restaurants 10-15 m walk away. Had some issues on check-in and again on check-out with the pre-paid parking not being tied to our booking. All in all, would not hesitate to stay again.
