Fodor's Expert Review Hotel du Vin
New St., Henley on Thames, Oxfordshire, RG9 2BP, England
A sprawling brick brewery near the river has been transformed into a distinctive modern architectural showplace. Bedrooms have dark carpeting and whitewashed walls, and furnishings are tan, white, or black. The original brewery windows appear in strange places and staircases are contorted to fit the space, but a feeling of warmth and comfort presides. The bar and bistro is very good, and the wine list, unsurprisingly, is excellent.
PROS
- very chic
- lovely river views from upper floors
- good for oenophiles
CONS
- won't thrill traditionalists
- a charge for parking
- steps inside are tricky to navigate
