We would love to help make your stay at Wivenhoe House Hotel extra special, whatever you need. From a twin-bedded room, a time for dinner or to have a bottle of Champagne ready in the room for a special occasion, your wish is our command. Charges may apply.

Who doesn’t love a long lay in sometimes, so our normal checkout time is 11am, however when we have availability, we can offer a late check-out up to 5:00pm for a surcharge 

Who wants to spend their money before they have to, therefore we do not take a deposit for individual flexible rate bookings, we just ask for your card details to secure your booking. We know you may also like to have food, or a tipple or two while you are here, so we ask for a swipe of your card on arrival so you can charge things to your room.

From wheelchair access to the left of the main entrance, accessible parking at the front of the hotel, lifts to all floors, accessible rooms, and vibrating pillows for those with impaired vision.
