Loved my room. Full of character and cosy. Very far removed from white sterile rooms of big hotel chains. Breakfast was simple and self serve continental style. Type of accommodation I'm disappointed that I couldn't spend more time actually in there!! Would definitely stay again.

Fredrick's Hotel is a little gem hidden away in Maidenhead. Located off junction 8 of the M4, it's…read morenot far from London. It took me awhile to realise but the hotel is part of a German chain and the Teutonic efficiency has been married with a most friendly welcome and attitude from the German staff, who all speak good English. This starts from the moment you check in as you are offered a glass of champagne on arrival. You are then shown personally to your room and a plate of fresh fruit is delivered as well as a plate of chocolates! I noticed that everything in the hotel is monogrammed with the Fredrick's brand. Very impressive I stayed in a suite and the £30 for upgrade is worth it for a sumptuous room, lovely bathroom and toiletries. The spa facilities are well designed to fit a lot into a relatively small space. The pool has an indoor and outdoor section as well as jacuzzi beds and a fountain. There is a steam room and sauna as well as experience showers. There is a full menu of spa treatments available. The restaurant aspires to fine dining and proves that it has the building blocks in place for great things. A plate of canapes arrived as I was perusing the menu, all delicious bursts of flavour. My belly pork starter was paired perfectly with scallop. The lamb main course was skilfully well constructed, allowing the lamb to shine through. My dessert of raspberry souffle was exemplary. Of course, if you're lucky, you can try and score a table at the Fat Duck or the Waterside Inn, both 3 Michelin star restaurants within 10 minutes drive of Fredrick's Overall a top class hotel perfect for an escape from London

I was visiting maidenhead for the first time as part of my work. This location is nice & quite…read moreneighborhood with a lot of small houses around & then we entered this hotel. On first entering this hotel I was surprised as to how old school it was, nice little chandeliers all around with tiny lights. I was also very happy with the room as even though it was small it had a nice bed with quite a few pillows to choose from. The bath was also nice & I was happy when I first entered my room, having said that when I further tried to use the facility I was really not happy. The slippers were really dusty & also the shower gel bottle had hair around it which is absolutely disgusting in a nice hotel. This is my biggest pain point from this hotel. The restaurant was pretty decent & pretty plain & simple breakfast. I only stayed for a day & for the 1st time, so this is my first impression never know what happens in future.

I am torn in my review of this place. If money is no object then its worth a stay. It is truly like…read moreyou are staying in a mansion from yesteryear. Definitely a downton abbey moment. My room however was not worth the $1k per night I paid. No cookies, small bathroom, no AC (visited in the blazing summer), no fridge. The charges for food were outrageous. Lunch menu was limited and I spent $100 on a bowl of soup, salad and a couple of soft drinks. This all being said am I happy I stayed here, yes. Its a once in a lifetime stay that I would never repeat but I probably put the $5k I spent to better use as a down payment on a new car but you only live once!

Even a broken clock is right twice each day. In that spirit, I offer the following kind words…read moreabout the Thames Riviera Hotel: * The room I wound up in was fine; and * The riverside location is attractive. And with that, the positives will end. I hiked 10+ miles to reach this hotel which a travel agency booked for me. As I approached I could tell, even from the outside, that the place had some deferred maintenance. Stepping inside clarified my observation: the carpets looked worn and the interior shabby and tired. The woman at the front desk told us to wait, pointing outside to a gentleman smoking. "He'll help you when he gets back" she offered. Help here is a relative word. The smoker checked us in, showed us to our room, and mentioned that he'd upgraded us to a river view. As he walked out I walked to the far corner of the room to look out the window. Turning my neck at a 90 degree angle I could see and hear the car-filled bridge and spot the teensiest slice of the River Thames. Opening the window revealed that the window hardware was broken and a quick look around the room revealed the same shabby, tired interior that had greeted me at the front desk. This room was not acceptable. A new room was requested (we blamed the traffic noise) and keys were given to a satellite building behind the main building. After hauling luggage up several flights and walking down a hallway with stained carpet and sour smells, I stood outside our new room. Its handle had a "do not disturb" sign hanging from it and I could hear people inside. This too was not acceptable (obviously). A return to the front desk brought a bit of attitude, as though this was some big favor, requesting not to stay in an already occupied room. The third room? It was fine. Also in the satellite building, it actually had a balcony, a river view from there, was quiet, and had no traffic noise. It was charmless but by this time it was clear that charm wasn't this hotel's specialty. Breakfast, like all places in the UK, is included and with the exception of the fresh fruit and the pastries this breakfast was my least favorite of any I had on this trip. I didn't care for the taste of their eggs or potatoes. Maidenhead (birthplace of Theresa May!) is an odd town but surely there must be better lodging options here than the Thames Riviera Hotel. For every reason above, I'd be very reluctant to recommend you stay here but if you insist, ask for an unoccupied room in the satellite building, one with a river view and a balcony, and plan to eat your breakfast elsewhere.

Rooms are nicely appointed and come with the usual room ammeneties. The restaurant has seasonal specials that change on a regular basis. I opted for the 3 course menu . There was lots of choice i went for salmon gravalax for starter, the cannon of lamb for main and cheese and biscuits for dessert. The salmon was served with dill and was tasty. The lamb was served with seasonal veg and dauphinois potatoes and was served perfectly pink. The cheese and biscuits were fine ith pretty main stresm cheese choices. They do a good breakfast with everything cooked to order as well as specialities such as eggs benedict, smoked kippers, poached eggs and classic smoked salmon and scrambled eggs. Its a nice hotel and one which i will definitely stay in again.
