A full English breakfast is available each morning. The hotel's original Georgian restaurant serves home-cooked food and looks out over the gardens and the river. There is also a special bar menu that changes regularly. The hotel offers entertainment, including popular live rock and roll on Saturdays and traditional jazz on the first Sundays of the month.
