You will dine like a king at The Mitre Hampton Court- a riverside bolthole close to Hampton Court Palace in Surrey. Built hundreds of years ago to host visitors to the palace- the hotel continues the tradition today in modern and luxurious style. There is a real focus here on keeping guests very well-fed. You can choose to eat alfresco on the terrace of the Brasserie on sustainably-sourced dishes. Or keep things casual - but still stylish - in the all-day elegance of the Coppernose bistro. Enjoy traditional afternoon tea with champagne in the sunny surrounds of the Orangery- or while watching the pleasure cruisers float by on the river. A bespoke picnic service allows you to pick dishes from the menus to pack into your own hamper- that comes complete with a rug for lazy riverside lounging. The warm- characterful design that is a hallmark of the dining spaces flows through the spacious bedrooms and suites of the hotel. Some feature sporting and hunting motifs to evoke the traditions of the area- others reflect the literary and historical associations of The Mitre. Royal suites are packed with luxurious features such as roll top baths- picture-window river views and four poster beds. Around the hotel- history buffs can spend hours in Hampton Court Palace- nature lovers will adore the open spaces of the nearby Royal Parks- and city fans can get their fix of central London just a few miles away. Dogs and families are welcome and well-catered for - making The Mitre Hampton Court a perfect retreat for just about everyone. The Mitre Hotel is a Small Luxury Hotels of the World property.
