Everything was just wonderful! Coming back August!
What a delightful experience! The ambience of the pub was wonderful. The service was exceptional from front desk to cleaners. We enjoyed the room and were so very pleased that we've decided to come back in August, providing we can get the same room! We couldn't be happier with everything about our stay here!

Alexander Pope review When you travel to an area for the first time, it’s often hard to choose a hotel just from searching online and reading reviews. But, I chose the Alexander Pope Hotel by carefully reading reviews and was especially mindful of when they were written. So many negative reviews were generated during the pandemic, so I tried to look for 2023 reviews. I was so impressed with the Alexander Pope Hotel! The staff was so gracious. They were always attentive and even spread themselves out to cover all aspects of running the hotel smoothly. I loved my room, the bathroom was clean and updated, the bed was comfy and the most special treat was the homemade shortbread biscuits left each day to enjoy with my Nespresso coffee. My sister recently moved to Twickenham, so with this lovely hotel just over a mile from her flat, it will be a perfect place for guests to stay. The pub/restaurant was warm and inviting and a busy locals place as well. I’m hoping to make another visit in the future and definitely will stay again. Now, if I could get their recipe for their most delicious lemon garlic houmous, I would love to recreate it at home. 😉♥️

Staff helpful when TV was not working and bin had not been emptied from previous guests. Was in a twin room, that had a locked interconnecting door. Unfortunately the sound proofing was awful, we could hear our neighbour coughing and on the toilet! We spent the week whispering when back in the room and very paranoid! Despite the lovely photos, the finishes were not great…stains on the walls, paint on radiators and cracked toilet bowl that had obviously been there for some time. Obviously a pub, but not sure if you are aware there is a child in the room leaving a copious amount of alcohol in the mini bar? However, I could not fault the staff who are friendly, professional and prompt.

Great stay but 2nd night the room above 25 appeared to have no carpets and noise of heels going backwards and forwards woke both of us up a lot.!!!! Also hotel should provide information on buses etc for sights and shows in vicinity.We had horrendous times getting to flower show and then back to visit Hampton Court which spoilt or trip.Hotel was very enjoyable food great.

This is the second stay 2 night for this Twickenham hotel, central to town and just a short taxi or bus ride up to the rugby. This was a much improved stay, in a roomy superior double with great features. The pub downstairs serves a lovely Sunday roast and great food on other days with an extensive a la carte breakfast offering. The staff here are attentive and friendly. Free parking in the basement is a plus. Just a couple of improvements needed or to bear in mind. The pub/bar is not brilliant for sports, only 2 tv’s and they prioritised the football over premiership rugby on our stay, unusual for a Twickenham located venue. And our shower head was held up with a cable tie, not to be expected in a hotel charging upwards to £200 per night. Other than that, a perfect stay for before and after the rugby with quality food and drink on tap. We will be back.

This is the second time we’ve stayed here. The staff are extremely helpful and friendly. We had slight problem with our TV satellite signal which was dealt with by the duty supervisor. Unfortunately, he was unable to fix it completely, so immediately moved us to a new room. As I stated previously the service was excellent. I would though that the rooms could do a lick paint to brighten them up.
