About
The Richmond Harbour Hotel & Spa, set in a newly restored and renovated 18th Century period property, is the ideal base for those wanting to exploring the extraordinary sights of London, whilst escaping its hustle and bustle. Tranquil, charismatic and swanky Richmond in London’s southwest, famed for its royal park, offers guests a retreat with excellent access to London & its many attractions.
This luxury boutique hotel, at the top of Richmond Hill, is steps from Richmond Park itself and a short stroll to the many independent boutiques and top-notch restaurants of Richmond’s town centre. An extensive refurbishment programme has now transformed the hotel, introducing fun, vibrant décor throughout, in-keeping with the Harbour Hotel’s signature style.
For food and drink during your stay, our newly-opened restaurant ‘The Gate, Kitchen, Bar, Terrace’ is an all-day modern brasserie serving light, seasonal and contemporary dining. The light-filled main dining room, with its striking interiors of vivid colour and bold patterns, opens up onto an atmospheric internal courtyard terrace; a vibrant bar serves up seriously good cocktails. It’s a relaxed, neighbourhood vibe, in keeping with Richmond’s own unique character.
For those wanting to get out and about, the stunning Richmond Park is moments away as is the Thames River with its stunning waterside walks. The world-famous Kew Gardens is just 10-minutes by taxi or tube; Twickenham stadium, home of English rugby, and Wimbledon Tennis Championships are a 20-minute taxi ride each; and Hampton Court, the former home of Henry VIII, is also just a 20-minute taxi ride away.
Central London, with its unrivalled West End shows, museums, and historic landmarks, is a mere 30 minutes by train. See our staff’s recommendations of the best activities, attractions & events in Richmond and the London area here. On request, the hotel can prepare you a sumptuous picnic to take with you, or arrange bike hire.
The hotel is easily accessed from central London via Richmond train station, a 5-minute drive away (15-minute walk). Richmond is also readily accessible from the M3 and M4 motorways. Heathrow airport is just a 30-minute drive, Gatwick Airport a one-hour drive. On-site parking is available, but charges may apply.
All of our hotels are accessible and help is always on hand for those who need assistance. Families are welcome.
Note to guests: the hotel's spa is currently undergoing a major renovaiton and will be closed for the foreseeable future.
