Story

Great Fosters is a fine example of Elizabethan architecture set amongst 50 acres of stunning formal gardens and parkland. Probably built as a Royal hunting lodge in 1550 it is now a prestigious 43 bedroomed hotel with two restaurants, The Estate Grill and The Tudor Room at Great Fosters. The Estate Grill is a contemporary restaurant providing locally sourced, more ingredient led food whilst being surrounded by the best of British art. The Tudor Room at Great Fosters is a more sophisticated dining experience with the intimacy of 24 covers and offers a series of tasting menus designed by Head Chef, Douglas Balish.

This imposing property has retained many original features including Jacobean fireplaces and mullioned windows and the breath taking grounds feature a circular sunken rose garden, wisteria-clad bridge over a Saxon moat, a lake and outdoor heated swimming pool. The hotel is popular for weddings, meetings and events, dining and romantic breaks and offers a unique luxurious retreat located minutes from the M3 and M25, and conveniently close to Heathrow and London.

We have visited twice, once for an evening meal and once for afternoon tea. The dinner was one of the best meals we've ever had and the staff were fantastic (great attention to detail and very friendly). Likewise, the afternoon tea was great (the cakes in particular were something special). The setting is splendid, you won't find many dining experiences quite like it. Also if you visit for afternoon tea, a brief walk in the formal garden shouldn't be passed over!

I visited Great Fosters hotel for a wedding on maybe one of the sunniest days in UK for many years now. 
On arrival we noticed the building which is quite impressive and stands out.
Inside, you're feeling like you're in another era. Everything seems like it was left untouched for many years but of course excellent preserved. 
Nevertheless the floor is quite squeaky and ceilings quite low. 

The garden is amazing. Seems endless and everything is very well taken care of. 
We must have spent almost 2 hours walking around. 

The room was a bit of disappointment, especially given the price level (300£ per day). It is spacious and with good facilities but far from impressive (weighing all factors: price / place / time). Of course that's our impression as a couple at late 30s. For more senior people might be ideal. 

We had a snack in the bar and couple of
drinks. All were fine and nicely served.

Staff were very polite. Couple of exceptions wasn't off putting. 

We had a nice time but I wouldn't return again for a second visit. We believe that the hotel.ks more recommended for more senior people. 

P.S.: It's awful when customers post reviews of one star without any explanation, so I understand the frustration of the owner. Nevertheless is equally awful when the hotel,representative responds publicly in the bad tone. Filter the one star reviews and you will understand what I mean.

We booked afternoon tea for my friends 40th Birthday. From the moment we arrived the staff were amazing. So helpful and charming. Especially our waiter Casper. They all really made the day extra special with their professional and amazing care for the customer. Can not recommend enough. Thank you for a great afternoon. Can’t wait to come back x x

Great wedding venue with gorgeous interiors and beautiful grounds with landscaped gardens and water features. I photographed an intimate wedding there recently and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a venue in the area. Great food and helpful staff as well!

Not a cheap hotel but steeped in history and a good choice of things to see and do. The grounds around the hotel are well maintained and a great diversion. The restaurant we were able to book (bit of a co@k up on the catering front) was excellent. The cocktail bar is pleasant and offers a wide range of drinks and afternoon teas. We attended a wedding event and the service was impeccable. Rooms in the main house are cosy and well furnished, but retain a lovely old world charm.
