    It was difficult to speak to the receptionist as when I needed something, no one was present and had to stay seeing if they were at the bar/restaurant. Guests were loud Saturday night, especially getting to their rooms. Also would have liked if there were certain toiletries available in the bathroom apart from soap.

    Location. Staff were friendly and helpful.

    Unfortunately, a loose floorboard in the common corridor, outside my room was very loud when walked upon and squeaked whenever people passed at night!

    Cosy, well kept and well proportioned rooms

    Spacious modern hotel in lovely historic locale

    Well, we didn't need a king-sized bed, especially one that consisted of two singles put together. It wasn't very comfortable.

    The room was large and well equipped with an interesting mixture of modern and retro furnishings. As a Pope scholar I appreciated the relatively tasteful pictorial representations and historical prints, and Mavis Batey's lovely book. Everything was beautifully clean and bright. Location is, of course, superb, being on the site of Pope's original home and garden and with the same view of the Thames - and, in present-day terms, close to the historical centre of Twickenham.

    I don't have anything to raise here. We really enjoyed our time at The Alexander Pope.

    The location was ideal for our purposes, including visiting students at the local university. The receptionist and restaurant staff were warm and welcoming and contributed to our having a really splendid stay.

    Excellent room. Everything was available and how one would expect it. Not luxurious but sensible size , bathroom good and cupboard space too. Food satisfactory for supper, but expect London prices. Lovely view of the Thames and vibrant local atmosphere. Staff kind and helpful, ready to go the extra mile.

    Rooms and property feel like they need a bit of a refresh. Some money spent on updating the property would go a long way.

    The rooms are small but clean and the bed is comfortable (as well as the shower being good). Customer service very good at the hotel. Julia on reception was very helpful and allowed me to use the Conference Room for video calls well after I checked out. The club sandwich from the pub/bar is exceptional - one to try.

    This is combining the best things of England, Super friendly and uncomplicated "unposh" service, nice decorated room with good bed, every day fresh bottle of water on the house (also a nice stocked minibar, coffee machine etc.) in a cosy end of Twickenham, bus stop in front of the door, directly at the Thamse and good starting point to walk the Thames path (if ever you want). Good pub food and cosy chairs and sofas (in case you do not want to eat). If ever my travels bring me towards Twickenham again, quoting Terminator "I'll be back".

    Only hiccup we had was the music from the bar one night. It would have been courteous to advise the guests of the party and maybe offer earplugs. It was mentioned to staff the next day and an apology was made.

    Excellent location. Easy walk into Twickenham. Bus stop straight outside of the hotel. Room was excellent. The shower was so easy to use. House keeping staff were very helpful. The bar staff advised on transport which was very useful. We only stayed for breakfast one morning but it was lovely.

    Staying on first floor you can hear the guests above walking about on creaky floorboards. The builders when converting should have addressed this!

    we stayed for 2 nights and unfortunately the room had too much sound spill from the bar below and what has to be the loudest floorboards I have come across in the room above. Sadly it kept us up all night which was not great as I was there to speak at a conference and had booked the hotel for good night's sleep. I will add that they responded rapidly and moved us up one floor for our second night which made a big difference.

    Friendly staff and great location. thought we had issues the first night, upon being made aware of the issues in the room they moved us to a different room. We are grateful for this quick action and understanding.

    The WiFi signal was very weak, there was no TV signal and I couldn't operate the internet on my phone either. Breakfast was mediocre at best, the buffet option was limited and the poached eggs tasted of vinegar. Room for improvement here.

    Very comfortable and spacious rooms, the honesty mini bar was a nice touch. The bedroom and bathroom were spotless. The room was nicely furnished and the bed was very comfortable.
