Romantic stay at a Thames riverside hotel with a brilliant restaurant and historic bar - includes breakfast, and optional dinner credit
  • Relaxing setting near London: The romantic Macdonald Compleat Angler sits in a tranquil spot on the river's edge, throwing its lights across the water. Less than an hour outside of London, this plush hotel overlooks the Thames in Marlow, Buckinghamshire - perfect for country rambles, fishing trips and jaunty days out in nearby Windsor, Eton or Henley.

  • Award-winning dining: You're spoilt for choice at the award-winning Riverside Restaurant, where gourmet British dishes are served alongside lovely views. Whether you're dining on the outdoor terrace,  alfresco on the lawn during summer, or in the relaxed dining room, you can count on a highly memorable experience. Elsewhere, Sindhu by Atul Kochhar puts refined Southern Indian cuisine on the map, perfect for those who fancy a culinary journey.

  • Exclusive former guest list: You can also drink cocktails in the bar or sip champagne in the cosy and quaint lounge, once a favourite haunt of T.S. Eliot and F. Scott Fitzgerald - you can't get much more glamorous than that. Expect a cosy atmosphere teeming with old-world elegance in this 400 year-old oak-panelled watering hole.

Macdonald Compleat Angler is around 35 miles from London, and can be accessed by either the M4 or the M40. The hotel is just half a mile away from Marlow Rail station, for those wishing to leave the car at home.
