Each room is individually designed to offer character and comfort, with many hidden quirks including bathrooms behind bookcases or four-poster beds raised on elevated platforms.

Many guests will choose the elegant Crown Bedchambers or luxurious Feature Bedrooms, though if you’re looking for an extra-special stay, the Grand Feature Collection is sure to satisfy you. There are 14 individually designed, lavishly furnished Grand Feature Bedchambers, many feature four-poster or canopy beds and some have Victorian roll-top baths.

Please note that bedchambers are located in both the original abbey building and in Park Priory, which was built and completed in 2008. The priory offers luxurious accommodation across all bedroom types. Perfectly located in the abbey grounds, the priority is separate to the main part of the hotel yet accessible for all the abbey's amenities.

Trusted GuestThe Abbey and the surrounding grounds were very grand and impressive. It seemed a popular venue with many guests and was well presented. We stayed in a cosy double room, which was actually quite spacious and well equipped with a mini fridge, iron and hairdryer. Although it was labelled as cosy, I would say that lack of lighting was an issue for us in such a dark room. Toiletries and coffee making facilities were provided, but considering the status of this hotel, didn't match the expectations we'd had. Staff were kind and helpful, however there was some confusion and mixed messages depending upon who we spoke to, regarding how our dinner package worked. Overall, we had a pleasant stay and would recommend Coombe Abbey Hotel.
Keith, United StatesCoombe Abbey was amazing - the venue is beautiful and well maintained - very historical. Our dinner in the restaurant was grand, as was the breakfast in the same location. The room was large - the bathroom a little quirky due to its vintage nature, but 100% functional and no concerns - just things I had not seen for decades, such as the toilet tank high above the toilet, but it toally fit in. The bed was large and comfortable - we would definitely return!
Trusted GuestThe bed mattress & pillows condition were poor considering the hotel status. Staff were friendly, receptive & listened to our feedback when we were checking out.
Trusted GuestBeautiful grounds and lovely accommodations.
