Overview
Why make a visit to Britain the same as every other? Instead, guests could enjoy accommodations on Monkey Island, a private island located in the Thames River. The Monkey Island Estate offers luxurious accommodations within a secluded setting, with easy access to all that guests might want to see and do. Guests can easily access Windsor Castle, BCA Zoo, St. George’s Cathedral, and other top area attractions from this property.
This property offers just 30 guest rooms, each of which is outfitted to ensure a comfortable, enjoyable stay. All rooms feature free Wi-Fi connectivity, a minibar, a coffee and tea maker, an HD TV set, USB charging stations, toiletries, aromatherapy supplies, air conditioning and heat, a hairdryer, and more. Guests can choose between standard rooms and suites, all designed to evoke the feel of an English country home.
On property, guests will be able to relax and enjoy The Monkey Room, as well as The Monkey Bar for a drink, or they can head to the Whisky Snug. The grounds are immaculately maintained and ideal for a stroll at any time of the day, too. In addition, guests have access to The Floating Spa, which is housed in an antique Georgian boat that was once home to royalty.
While the property offers sumptuous dining opportunities, there are plenty of other choices nearby. These include Marmara Restaurant, which is 3.5 miles away and serves Mediterranean food, as well as Gurkha Royale Restaurant & Bar, which is 2.8 miles away and serves Indian cuisine.
