Stay was awesome. Apartment was roomy for a family of five. Property manager was super friendly and helpful. Backs up to side of Hampton Court Palace and across the street from Bushy Park, ideal for visiting both locations. Walking distance to their cafe which was lovely as well.

Advertised as check in only between 2pm and 6.30pm - this is wrong, but put us under pressure on a 6 hour drive. Accommodation is lovely so close to Bushy Park and Hampton Court Palace, free, easy parking a bonus

The suite comprised a combined lounge and kitchen with a comfortable bedroom with an ensuite showerroom. The property was clean and in good condition. The kitchen had the necessary facilities and things were modern and in good condition. The staff were friendly and helpful. There was a slight hold-up at registration to pay for the booking but otherwise everything ran smoothly. The couch in the lounge looked to be a fold down bed, but we didn't try this and so don't know how well it would work. There is parking at the site, but we travelled by railway and so didn't use this. The apartment is about 10 minutes walk, pretty level, from Hampton Court Railway Station. There are shops within walking distance and also pubs and other facilities.

Perfect for families visiting Hampton Court Palace

Perfect location for Hampton Court Palace and the maze. Beautifully kept, very clean and would highly recommend. The sofa bed for the kids was high quality, easy to put up, and comfy. All bedding ready to put on.

素晴らしく過ごしやすかった。シャワーもしっかり(湯量、温度調整)していてベッドも良く疲れが取れました。晴れた朝には周辺の散歩(城・公園:鹿やリス、小鳥がいますが、糞に注意！)をお勧めします。10分ほど歩くとハンプトン駅に行けるためロンドン(ウォータールー駅)までのアクセスも悪くない(1時間ほどで乗継なし)。ただし、部屋に調味料がなく困った。TVを付けるとWi-Fiが極端に遅くなるので注意が必要です。また敷地への入口が狭く、大きめのレンタカーだと少しドキドキします。街道沿いのため車の音が気になる方は可能なら予約時に奥の部屋をリクエストして下さい。

Excellent location - very clean, lovely big shower, handy for excellent public transport. Could do with some draws for clothes and coat hooks. Kitchen equipment spartan and microwave and convection hob difficult to understand how to work. Lovely gastro pubs and restaurants other side of bridge and opposite palace main entrance. Ideal base for exploring area. Would recommend as long as not planning to do much cooking.

Wonderfully spacious and very conveniently located

We were a family of four in a two bedroom apartment but the sofa bed meant the kids could have their own beds. The hotel was right beside the side gate to Hampton Court Palace gardens and within walking distance of wonderful restaurants. We were able to park the car and access everything on foot.

Well placed apartment close to business meeting

This well maintained one bedroom apartment with parking was ideal for an overnight stay with a colleague and was more cost effective than two hotel rooms (we used the sofabed facility which was very comfortable). It was good to have parking and the ability to heat up food in the microwave. Would be happy to use it again if were in the area.

Second stay, almost as great as the first

Second time staying here. Great location and nice, clean rooms. Two minor problems - the hotel next door that had a very convenient restaurant was closed, so there wasn't a good place to grab a quick bite right near it like there used to be(though it is supposed to reopen later in 2017). ANd the wifi didn't work for about 24 hours while we were there. Otherwise, it was another delightful stay next to the palace.

Renovated Apartment near Hampton Court Palace

This is a newly renovated apartment VERY close to Hampton Court Palace. Bus ride to Kingston Upon Thames for shopping, restaurants, etc. Kitchen included everything needed to have simple meals in room (no oven). Didn't seem to have a staff onsite, however as we didn't see anyone the entire time we were there. Wi-fi was definitely a problem and we didn't get strong cell signal, so if connection is important to you, you shouldn't choose to stay here. No air conditioning and limited movement of air (even with skylights and windows open). If weather is hot, you are likely to be awoken by street noise as it is very close to the street.
