The Runnymede-on-Thames Hotel and Spa

Located on the banks of the picture-perfect River Thames in Surrey, just 10 minutes from Windsor, The Runnymede on Thames is a modern four-star hotel with a relaxed atmosphere. Inside, you’ll find two restaurants, Leftbank and The Lock Bar & Kitchen as well as the Lounge. Set at the heart of the hotel with an all-day dining menu, bar and views over the river, this space is abuzz with life. Elsewhere, there’s the award-winning spa, with a range of ESPA and Guinot treatments, fitness centre and a whole host of meeting and event spaces. Outside, discover the tennis courts, heated outdoor pool and river-based activities including boat hire and stand up paddle boarding! For those willing to venture a little further afield, neighbouring attractions include Royal Ascot, National Trust sites, Legoland and Thorpe Park.

The hotel has introduced a rigorous set of cleaning procedures, including Ozone generator cleaning in all bedrooms between guests as well as more frequent cleaning in all public areas. Each guest is given complimentary hand gel, and a new luggage sanitation procedure wipes away any remaining Covid concerns from the outside world.

The Runnymede’s two restaurants, the Left Bank and the Lounge offer beautiful views, and while capacity in both is reduced to better enable social distancing, the cuisine and the atmosphere remains as warm and as characterful as ever. Choose the Lounge for laidback luxe spiked with a coffee and wine, or the Left Bank for a romantic dinner for two — either inside in the elegant interiors or on the charming riverside terrace.

On check-in, thermal imaging temperature checks offer peace of mind for guests and staff, and a new express check-in and out procedure reduces contact.
