Captain's Club Hotel & Spa

We had a wonderful stay at the Captains Club! We were on our ‘minimoon’ and they very kindly upgraded us to a suite which was amazing. All the staff were lovely, Jane on reception was welcoming and helpful, and the staff at breakfast were attentive and friendly. The room had everything we needed, and the views were super. Breakfast was perfect, a good selection from yoghurt and fruit to cereal and then a choice of hot. We also popped to the spa, which was small but nice we could use it included in our stay. We would definitely recommend and would love to go back!

I would normally want to give the hotel ( including the spa and bar) a 5* / 6* review, but on this occasion, we stayed over for a Christmas party. The main positives were that I was able to check in early to enjoy the spa (love, love, love) as well as a fabulous massage with Sam (brilliant!) . Then we had drinks in the bar as the sun went down - they serve the BEST Negroni ever. The negatives were that when we then went to the Christmas party it was for several groups. This was a bit disappointing as our group of some 40 friends was sharing the event. This meant we weren’t able to ask the DJ to suit just us, ie to turn down the ( dreadful supermarket type) Christmas music so we could talk at least while we were eating. The evening would have worked much better had the party been for just the one group choosing their own music, dress code, etc. Other pluses, though, were that we ended our evening back in the lovely bar, had a superb night’s sleep and a wonderful breakfast overlooking the river.

This is a hidden gem on the river. High end offering with friendly service. Stayed last year for our anniversary and today for some light lunch. Consistently high standards and a unique setting. Would recommend for a lazy Sunday by the river.
