Great Fosters

Wonderful historic hotel. In hotel restaurant was outstanding. Best Beef Wellington ever. Abdi, Joseph and the staff were wonderful. Location was close to Heathrow and easily accessible to Windsor. Easy taxi or train to London. Would definitely love to return.

Booked afternoon tea for a birthday celebration for 8 of us. We had told them in advance about some sandwich requests, so thought it would be straight forward!! I do not expect to have to wait over 50 minutes from the time we sat down to the sandwiches, scones and cakes to arrive. They had made sure our sandwich request was covered. But it was only two people that it affected. One was only white bread, the other was just cucumber sandwiches. Hardly difficult, especially as they had been told in advance. The cumber and soft cheese ones, were more soft cheese with a hint of cucumber!! I’ve never seen cucumber sliced so thin! The room we were was nice enough with its decor. However, To be sat on sofas and arm chairs with the table not much higher than a coffee table dosen’t work for a comfortable experience. The room was cold, we had to ask for a door to be closed to stop a draft coming in. Even when the door was closed the room was not one you could relax and enjoy. My daughter had chosen this venue as it was the place one of her friends had got married and she wanted to show us. We could have been sat anywhere. There was no windows to look out of, and as I said before the room just wasn’t welcoming. The waiting staff did their best, but it was not five star service!! My wife said that ladies toilets were in a bad state. One of the cubicles wouldn’t lock, and they needed a good clean. Again not five star service. I had sent a feedback form stating all of the above the same evening, and asked for someone to get back to me before I left feedback on Tripadvisor. It has been a week, and I have had no response. So here I am telling anyone that cares to read it, what a very poor experience we had. To pay £333 for eight afternoon teas, including service I think it severely over priced for the experience we had. For the money you can have a much better experience elsewhere.

Loved the venue — great place for business related events and networking. Also there is a great team running Great Fosters, particularly Abdi and Simrane at the front desk! Thanks for helping to make our stay great guys. Looking forward to our next stay.

Beautiful secluded hotel, we had a wonderful night away - stunning bedroom, amazing dinner and the final touch was a fab massage at the Spa with the wonderful Audi and Mariam, highly recommended!

Impossible to find fault with this hotel. Exceptional service from the minute you reach the door to reception until you leave by the same door. My room was large and well equipped. The bed was comfortable. If I could find fault, it's the HVAC controls. I had two in my room and it was not obvious what each did, nor how to get the room to the correct temperature. Walking around the gardens was very relaxing.

Stunningly beautiful property with great charm. Fantastic staff, great service and food.

What a lovely place to be able to visit! As we drove up the main drive we were greeted by some very friendly and lovely staff members called Adam, Gabor & Micheal we assisted us into the hotel and made sure we were well looked after before our afternoon tea. We were taken through into the Anne Boleyn room and sat down by the window which was a nice touch; Eunice explained the afternoon tea to perfection. We then went for a walk around the beautiful grounds before heading into the cocktail bar and the staff there were fantastic. We were unsure of what drinks to order but Cladwell took his time to explain the drinks menu and suggested a few drinks for us and we were not disappointed at all! Such a shame to leave but on the way out we had the chance to speak with some of the staff at reception who gave us a lot of history on the place, believe it was Charlie, Sophie and also Joe who are all fantastic! We will definitely return very soon again!!

Brilliant from arrival until departure
