Known locally as 'The Face of Ross-on-Wye' and originally built in 1837, this 42-room historic hotel has recently been the subject of major work to restore it to its former beauty. Standing high above the horseshoe bend of the River Wye, it enjoys some of the best views of the surrounding countryside. This majestic Grade II Georgian country hotel has enjoyed the company of many famous visitors, including Queen Victoria and Charles Dickens, who planned his American Biography whilst staying here. Shared facilities available to guests at this establishment include a reception area, bar, restaurant, Internet access and a car park. The hotel is non-smoking throughout.

The hotel's comfortable en suite bedrooms feature individual character and range from romantic feature rooms with spectacular views to character-filled single rooms in the old stable block. Each includes a bathtub/shower, telephone and television, as well as Internet access, tea and coffee making facilities and an iron and ironing board. Furthermore, a daily housekeeping service is also provided.

The spectacular Barrett's Restaurant, Riverside Bar and terrace with the most amazing views offer seasonal menus, with a wide selection of modern and traditional British favourites: from hearty main courses to lighter snacks, complemented by a selection of real ales, carefully selected wines, speciality teas and coffees.

The hotel does not accept dogs.

By car: from the M5 junction 8, take the M50 to Ross-on-Wye. Ignore signs to town centre and follow the A40 over the river to the Wilton roundabout. Turn left onto the B4260, then take the second right up the hill to the hotel.
