Rickmansworth Hotels

Rickmansworth is a town in the far reaches of the London Underground in Hertfordshire. A small, leafy settlement with the feel of a country village, Rickmansworth is close enough to London to be a useful base from which to make daytrips without having to subject yourself to the noise and dirt that sometimes comes with staying in the centre. Rickmansworth has access to a range of pleasant areas that make good spots for walks and relaxing. The town’s popular Aquadrome park and walks in the Chilterns are a couple of nearby attractions.

The Rickmansworth hotel nearest the station is the unremarkable but pleasant Long Island Hotel, which is in Rickmansworth itself. While occasionally inconsistent in its standards of upkeep, Long Island has more style and comfort than you would generally expect from a two star hotel, and the prices are excellent.

The Bedford Arms Hotel, with one more star, is a beautiful country hotel in the Chiltern village of Chenies. Wreathed in flowers, with exposed wooden beams and the feel of an old-fashioned country inn, the Bedford Arms is a million miles away from central London in tone if not in physical distance.

The most prestigious hotel near Rickmansworth is the five star ‘London Country Estate’ the Grove, about five kilometres away from the station. Set in a wonderful country manor, this luxury hotel, spa and golf club is the ideal spot for a relaxing weekend retreat. Once a favourite of Queen Victoria’s, the Grove has maintained incredible standards of chic and comfort, and its restaurant is particularly impressive. With 300 acres in which to roam, it’s easy to forget London ever existed.

Rickmansworth Station is in Zone 7 of the Underground, on the Metropolitan Line.
