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.

Excellent location but busy through road from Hampton Court to Kingston during the day, quieter in the evening. On site parking which was important for us.

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.

Lovely apartment in a lovely location
Lovely little apartment directly outside the gates of Hampton Court Palace. The rooms were high spec and meticulously clean. There is a pub a few minutes walk away which sells basic put food and tie is around a 10/15 minute walk which has a larger variety of restaurants. We also walked passed the train station which has regular trains into Waterloo. The only improvements I would make is a more accessible mirror and a tea towel.

Good location for history buffs
Good location for exploring Hampton Court and easy access to central London. Room was chic and very clean. Having a separate kitchen/living area gives flexibility if you don't want to eat every meal out. Plenty of (free) parking on site.

Lion Gate Mews
We really enjoyed our stay at Lion Gate Mews. We found it very straight forward to book and the location was ideal for exploring Hampton Court Palace and Bushy Park, in fact there were so many things to do in the area we will definitely be back! The apartment was very clean and had everything we needed. Also very convenient for Hampton Court train station.

Modern clean apartments, well decorated. Spoilt by being on a busy road. Too noisy for good nights sleep. Free parking, free but poor wifi. Plenty of cafes close.

Great location right next to Hampton court
this hotel had a great location, extremely comfortable beds and very easy check in. It was very clean and easy to park. Very nice in this way. However, it is a very noisy location being right on the road, The noise came in through the closed windows and the sky light. For that reason I would not go there again, way to noisy for me but otherwise a great spot. If traffic noise doesn't bother you, definitely a nice stay. there is a great pub, literally right next store too which I really enjoyed

Lovely apartment in Hampton Court
Very clean, Modern styled apartment 1 minute from Hampton Court Palace and opposite a road gate into Bushy Park. I stayed for business reasons but would be equally perfect for leisure travellers

Great for a couple
We used this for a business conference which was at Sandown race course. This meant we had multiple apartments, utilizing the sofa bed. Not ideal as the ensuite meant that people had to go through the bedroom for the bathroom however great value and would be ideal for a couple who are sharing the same bed!!

Stay at Lion Gate Mews
Met by friendly Manager who showed us the accommodation. It was stylish, comfortable and very clean. Easy to park the car right at the door. Right next to beautiful Park leading to Hampton Court Palace, Royal Bushy Park over the road. Pub very near serving food.

Great Location for Hampton Court
Lovely spacious one bed apartment, fresh and clean! We'd definitely stay here again. Wifi needs sorting out - it's rubbish but it isn't a deal breaker. Kitchen was spotless with microwave and hob but no oven. Parking was great and you can walk through the gardens to get to Hampton Court in about 5 mins. Lovely!

Lovely clean, modern apartment with all the best quality fixtures and fittings. The owner took time to ring me on morning of arrival and advise about check-in, then showed me round on arrival. Free parking and location great - right next to entrance to Hampton Court Palace, with shops, bars, restaurants and rail station all within easy walking distance.

Nice Apartel. Next to Hampton Cout Palace
Nice Apartel. Walking distance to all Hampton Court Palace sights & activities. Staff were very friendly & accommodation to myself & my three children. Only minor downfall was that reception was closed in the morning so couldn't get extra sugar for tea & coffee & wifi signal wasn't the best. Other than that I cannot fault this establishment. Highly recommended!

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。
