On arrival asked that our room was not to be serviced because of Covid. We also put do not disturb on our door. However, our message was not passed on to staff and they also chose to ignore the sign on door!

Very nice hotel. Good location, beautiful views from the dining room. Easy walk into the town of Richmond or the Park. I had booked a single room (it was all that was available on Booking.com) and feel there were plenty of other rooms available. My mistake! Excellent breakfast and service. Will definitely stay again.
