Guests love Richmond Hill Hotel for its quintessential blend of historic Georgian charm and modern comfort, set atop one of London’s most beautiful hills with easy access to Richmond’s green spaces and river paths. Richmond Hill Hotel blends historic elegance with contemporary comfort, offering a characterful alternative to city-centre stays. Rooms span two styles: Georgian spaces rich in period charm, and the sleeker Hill Collection with a more modern feel, while generously sized suites are a rare highlight in this part of London. At the heart of the hotel, 144 On The Hill is a lively local favourite for seasonal cooking. Thoughtful facilities, from an on-site gym to elegant event spaces, are complemented by a much-loved terrace that shifts seamlessly from winter retreat to summer social hub.

Which are your most popular room types, and why? Our most sought-after stays include: Georgian Suites
Located within the hotel’s original Georgian structure, these suites are defined by generous proportions and classic detailing. High ceilings, elegant furnishings and, in select rooms, freestanding baths give them a refined, traditional feel. Calm and quietly impressive, they suit guests drawn to heritage and a sense of occasion.

Hill Collection Suites
The Hill Collection Suites offer a more contemporary approach. Clean-lined and light-filled, with separate living and sleeping areas, they are designed for comfort and ease. Understated and practical, they work particularly well for longer stays or guests combining leisure with work.

What facilities do you have for children and can you fit extra beds in your rooms?

We welcome families with a range of family-friendly rooms and suites (including interconnecting rooms in the Hill Collection category), as well as offering: Cots for children up to age 2 and Extra beds or sofa beds for children aged 2–16 (charged per child).

Our restaurant also features children’s menu options and seasonal children’s afternoon tea to make family dining fun and easy. Whilst Richmond Park offers acres of open parkland for cycling, picnics and deer spotting, while the Thames riverside is ideal for gentle walks, boat trips and ice-cream stops.
