We had such a lovely stay at the Selwyn last weekend. It’s perfectly placed for exploring Richmond, and the staff couldn’t do more to help. Super friendly, and welcoming,
I was delighted to have gluten free croissants for breakfast!
The shower was great and bed very comfortable.
We were downstairs (room 102) and there was a bit of noise from walking above, but maybe take earplugs if you’re a light sleeper.
Still giving a 5/5 as we had such a lovely stay in the beautiful hotel.

The most poorly-run establishment I have ever witnessed. Money taken without reason, cards given to enter a stranger’s room, guests abandoned in hallways and so much more. Made Fawlty Towers look like The Ritz.
