A traditional building on the outside with a clean, modern feel inside. A new management team are ready to welcome you to your home in Hampton Court.
The Liongate is a traditional English town house dating back to 1721 and stands proudly overlooking Bushy Park, adjacent to Hampton Court Palace. Our newly refurbished restaurant offers a great selection of dishes throughout the day; breakfast, a light lunch or make an evening of it with our contemporary bar and restaurant. A new Restaurant Manager and new Chef brigade will ensure an excellent dining experience.
On the first floor the Park Suite, which enjoys spectacular views over Bushy Park, is an ideal venue for private functions or meetings. Let our conference and banqueting team arrange all the details and you do not even need to leave the hotel. Located just ten miles from Heathrow airport and surrounded by numerous places of interest, the hotel is an ideal choice for both business and leisure.
Rooms are either in the main hotel or across the road in the Liongate Mews. Unfortunately due to the age of the accommodation, we do not have a lift in either building.

convient for hampton court. friendly staff. The help of the staff, we able to check in early as we were going to a wedding, also as we had been traveling from early morining and arrived at 10.45 ish, we were able to get something to eat. The cooked breakfast and the wonderfully thick and luxurious duvet!. The lovely smile of Mariah waitress in the lounge. Very close to Hampton Court Palace. Ease of use and ample parking. For the price I paid (£55) it would be hard to beat for a single room in this area. The included breakfast was excellent as were the staff. Expect a 3 star hotel with nice people and you will not be disappointed. If you want 4 star service look elsewhere. Car parking adjacent.Easy parking, and comfortable bed.

I was able to park our car easily and close to our room.Our bed wascomfortable and the bedding was clean. Found several bottles of lager ontop of the wardrobe and a book and a load of old crockery and cutlerypresumably left there by other guest...or could they have been descretecomplimentary, But was usefull. Staff were nice.and didnt seem do botherthem that we didnt check out by 11am as req. Location - excellent for Hampton Court Palace - access across the road. Room was comfortable if basic but served our needs well. tea and coffee and bisucuits provided. friendly staff. The location was great for what we wanted.it's location. location. The day staff. The location was very good. Linen and towels were fresh and clean,breakfast v good.It really needs a face lift. Not really, as it is under refurbishment anyway. Guest reviews are mixed but we had a very good experience.strange smell in hallway on arrival. I was in the Mews annex and the access stair was a little steep for my taste. Everything fine for the value. Tv and Stero playing at breakfast and coffee almost took a layer off ourteeth, but everything else was fine.Both rooms in the annexe were reasonable but neither had any toiletrolls, towels for one person only in each room, no teas and coffees.Everything was replaced on request.On the first morning (Sunday) we camefor breakfast, eight of us in our group, and were informed they only hadone egg, there were many other people staying as well who came later forbreakfast. We had an 'attic' room, with very small double bed, so for £90 did not seem good value. Needs some decorative attention, internal and external.although the staff were friendly it was sometimes hard to find a member of staff when you wanted one. very uncomfortable bed and small room.the bed was too narrow (only3/4 size bed)breakfast took too long to arrive. Difficulty in carring bags to rooms...stairs!. The Hotel is 'tired'. The room was too hot - no air conditioning. The room in the mews had a lot of traffic noise which kept me awake. The window had been left open and the room had a lot of insects in it.The room we were 1st offered was very poor in terms of decor etc and badly in need of a refurb. when we complained we were offered a far superir room without any fuss. this room though was excessively hot. we were supplied with an electric fan and an inefficient air-conditioning unit. breakfast was very good. we thought the hotel was over-priced !!. No mirror at table with hairdryer. Room was okish, they have tried hard to upgrade and the general style is nice, they have however not used top quality labour and the finishing in parts is poor.Value for money it was ok, staff particularly friendly, especially at breakfast. The hotel rooms were to warm and could do with some attention. Rates are cheap though through this site.The hotel needs a 'make over'. Kitchen not working - no evening meal available.grubby exterior. Very slow service at tables at breakfast and our room smelled of something like smoke.Being given £4.80 change in 5 pence pieces? After booking over 10 roomswith our company they could just have knocked it of the bill if they hadno suitable change in the till. bedroom had a 4ft double bed. restaurant was dreadful and expensive for dinner.Room was far too hot;couldnt open windows and no air con. Room decorationin need of an overhaul. Arriving late in the evening (as arranged)welcome was off-hand. Needs some money spending on this. Room was very stuffy and dusty.Shower had just two temperatures-cold orscorching hot,tried to find a happy medium but was impossible..Walls haddampness stains.. Its probably fair to add that we stayed in the mewsrooms,set apart from the main building.Its possible the rooms in themain part of hotel were nicer. The outside seriously needs redecorating. They have made some efforts inside but the exterior paint is peeling, the flower boxes are brown and the sign is hanging off!. Room was dirty, humongous gathering of flies around doorway of room. Shower was a dribble. Breakfast was apparently until eleven but we went in at 10.40 and all had been cleared away apart from part of the continental stuff, and the member of staff got a right strop on about laying a table etc. No offer of cooked breakfast as we'd 'missed it', even though guy on reception said no worries. No mirrors in the room. Torn wallpaper. Hotel record of room price was different to that confirmed by on line system. The decor downstairs needed finishing downstairs, and the bedroom was shabby. The bathroom was dirty and the window would not open. initially put into a cold, dull room. heating not working. asked twice for this to be rectified and then asked to be moved. second room much nicer and heating worked. why put customers in a scruffy, cold room when a much nicer room was available, doesn't make business sense. cooked breakfast was very poor.uncomfortable bed. Cockroaches in the bedroom. We looked at 4 rooms and picked the best of a bad lot. There was noshower gel or shampoo, just a piece of soap the size of a 50pbetween two. Yes poor bedding worn out decor.
