Steeped in history, Grim’s Dyke is London’s premier country house hotel and is a Grade II listed building set in 40 acres of beautiful formal gardens and tranquil woodlands yet just 12 miles from the West End. The hotel takes its name from an ancient defensive earthwork which runs for three miles from Pinner Hill to Bentley Priory and which dates back to Roman times. The earthworks formed part of the boundary surrounded by 40 acres of tranquil gardens and grounds, which beautifully combines period charm and modern comfort. Whether you decide to stay in the main house which has nine bedrooms, all on the first or second floor, some of which have four poster beds with luxuriously appointed en-suite bathrooms, or in the more modern garden lodge which is adjacent to the main house and has a further 38 bedrooms with either double or twin beds and en-suite bathrooms, be sure that our friendly staff will be on hand to make sure you have a peaceful and enjoyable stay!

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

A really good find of a hotel giving easy access to London whilst giving the sensation of a more rural stay. The staff are extremely helpful and all seemed eager to ensure that the stay was a relaxing and as comfortable as possible.

Lovely place, the main building is interesting, lots of history, great grounds. Very comfortable. Great service… especially in the evening at meal time in the restaurant, Ashley has been a star, thank you for that Ashley. Lovely food, really nice, reasonably priced. Worth trying out their home made truffles. I stay at a lot of hotels, all over the country for business.. this is one I would returning to next time in the area, either business or a personal break, no hesitation. Thanks all at the hotel, appreciated the service

I recently had the afternoon tea at the Grim’s dyke. Absolutely wonderful afternoon. Firstly, the hotel is a beautiful building set in the most fabulous grounds, you actually feel like you have been transported somewhere special. The cream tea spread was delicious, everything was so fresh. The staff were all so polite and nothing was too much trouble. The only issue I had was that the afternoon went to quickly! Next time we do “ladies that lunch” we may have to extend it to an overnight stay!

My friends and I visited this beautiful hotel on our weekend away, we had been sightseeing in the area!! I can not recommend this place enough, the staff, service, facilities, food, all top notch!! After our busy day out we had the most amazing dinner, I must say the grims dyke smashed burger was yummy, then enjoyed a lovely walk around the grounds! The decor in the rooms in the main house are like stepping into history, and the staff we all so helpful, welcoming and polite, thank you for a lovely stay, will definitely be back :-)

We had a beautiful psychic afternoon tea on Saturday, hosted by Twilight ghost hunts. The service was impeccable and the afternoon tea was delicious! Such a beautiful historic building, we had a wonderful time! The staff couldn’t have done more for us all! Can’t wait to come back again! Laura

Spent 5 nights here while visiting relatives in the area. Have been here a number of times before but stayed in the more modern hotel buildings. This time we stayed in the main house. First the good things. The staff are excellent. Reception, waiters, bar, housekeeping all did a great job and made our stay acceptable. However the facilities are lacking. Firstly the tv was broken. Probably fell off the undersized table which destroyed 2/3 of the pixels. This created a black area making the screen pretty useless. Would have been ok if they had replaced it on the first day as I requested, but it was like that all five days. Very poor service. Secondly the heating in the whole house was almost nothing. Very cold most of the time. Thirdly very low water pressure, hardly enough for a shower. Lastly, and probably the worst was the access to the room. Three times we had to climb the fire escape due to an event in the Music Room that denied us access to the primary route. I do not expect to have to climb a fire escape with heavy bags in a Motel 6, let alone a 4 star hotel. This is not a 4 star hotel for those reasons. Hardly a 1 star. The great staff were the reason for the rating I gave, not the facilities.

we arrived at about 3am after an 8 hour journey with2 dogs we stopped in the little rooms off the main hotel, there was no hot water ,the radiators were only just warm we notified reception and were able to have a a shower in a few hours we had to pack the towels around the windows to stop the cold air getting in during the night the following morning again NO hot water and no heating and for over £200 per night this was not acceptable. Breakfast was a joke my we are vegetarian and the breakfast consisted of cold toast 1 very small ramekin of beans and one vegetarian sausage and one very small hash brown i had the luxury of a pooched egg on leaving we did however get a £102 refund which put this hotel in the same bracket as a Travel lodge it was not a good experience The only plus for this hotel in the STAFF who were wonderful and could not do enough for you ....i got the impression they had been told all these complains in the past

Restaurant. Restaurant staff very kind and attentive. Food was hot which is good, last visit it wasn't. Mentioned that my lamb rump was overcooked (I was asked how I would like it cooked, I asked for it rare, as last time it was well cooked). It arrived almost well to medium. So disappointing. Staff gave a discount for that so made it better. Breakfast was excellent and Julia stood out of 3 staff as she was most efficient. Hotel. Lovely quiet setting I always stay in the garden rooms. They are all in need of refurbishment Disappointing shower pressure for a room of this price. Mine had a spar bath which didn't work. Bathroom extract fan not working None have ever worked and despite reporting every time I visit, nothing is done. It's so important to have an extract fan. It would help with the musty room smell. I noticed plug in air fresheners in all corridors. Alarm bells ring. Should sort the ventilation out to the building

We stayed at this hotel as they hosted an evening of dinner with a performance of a Gilbert and Sullivan opera - in Gilbert's former home. The building is stunning - and the hotel facilities have been carefully incorporated into it without spoiling its Victorian grandeur and beauty. The only issue - about which we were warned prior to our confirming our stay, was that we had to use the fire exit to get to and from our room when the performers were rehearsing. We also had to use it the following day when the function room was being used for training. I would say to anyone with mobility issues to book a room in the annex, rather than in the main building, unless you can be assured that you will have full access, as my husband was not able to negotiate the spiral staircase of the fire exit while carrying a small suitcase - but fortunately I could cope.

Do not book a room in the main building. There is no lift and you have to walk through the main conference room to get through to your room. Unsurprisingly the conference attendees don't like that and neither will you. There is another option, which is, you use the external fire escape. Good luck with that!! Overall this hotel needs a massive refurbishment program..... Now!!!! The garden rooms are very similar to a care home.
