We ate in Sindhu, which I highly recommend. There are no USB ports in the bedrooms, which is worth knowing in advance. Breakfast was ok, but not great and certainly not the expected level for a 4 star hotel. The coffee was horrible and I would have expected better. However, overall we had a great time. ##### Sharon Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kwok Fong 28 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Review in check in and staying Everything looks good. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/E64FD5917E9781BD2060665E5A3EE739439C3EA11732787129213.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8F12CE3322633A379324F8690C0E928071B106041732787129572.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4E970426D7841E4E7EB767B6242F14196B52F35C1732787129793.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Kwok Fong Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 28 Sept 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great place Friendly staff ,brilliant location ,clean and tidy ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Sep 2022 ### 4/10 Poor #### John 15 Nov 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Such a great location totally spoilt by a very tired and overpriced hotel.

Whilst the location was second to none, I’d say the hotel inside is average. We would in a deluxe double so has river views which was incredible. Bathroom was dirty and we asked for it to be cleaned but that never happened. Breakfast was very average. Buffet style but I’d say range of food available was average. Little available for vegans, other than cooked breakfast. No alternatives for yoghurt or butters. Lovely location but overpriced hotel for what it offers. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 25 Sept 2022 #### Beautifully situated hotel Beautiful hotel in a very picturesque situation.

We loved the location. ##### Peter Stayed 1 night in Aug 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Andrew 4 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Pleasant staff. Very expensive Air con in the room should be more effective. Bit of a cheek to pay extra for various breakfast items. And to only get half a sandwich for £10!! ##### Andrew Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Susannah 21 Aug 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The Compleat Angler is not loved by its owners, customers who remember the days when this was THE hotel to stay in in the area will be saddened and disappointed with what has happened to this once prestigious hotel. Externally the location is perfect, tucked away at the end of Marlow bridge looking out on the church and Thames, a pretty garden area is inviting however often not available to hotel guests because of private “functions”. The older rooms and corridors are shabby, dirty and poorly presented far beyond the desperate need of refurbishment noted by reviewers in 2023. The “superior” rooms in the newer “block” are corporate and lack any character and are themselves due a bit of an update! Luckily we did have a lovely view of the river but would have been devastated if we had been allocated any of the many rooms with views of the car park! Do not pay extra for breakfast, the offer is poor and quality far below what you might expect of a four star establishment. It is a very quick walk across the bridge to any number of cafes and eateries offering far better quality and value for money. This is the ONLY hotel that I have ever stayed at charging supplements for decent coffee and some breakfast items. Concerns reported to management were acknowledged as completely accurate but “we are working on things” and “it’s a corporate decision” 1. Do not go any way to providing a solution and 2. Do not warrant the room rates being charges. This hotel is complete shambles. ##### Susannah Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### john 14 Aug 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Terrible state of cleanliness in shared areas like restaurant. Spiders all over restaurant walls No clearing away of used plates etc for many hours Overall very run down now.
