The Forbury Hotel

Summary

The Forbury Hotel may boast the exterior of a traditional townhouse hotel, yet its interiors, redefined by interior guru Nicholas Hollinshead, combine brilliant colours and lavish fabrics to create a modern spectacle.

However, it’s the unexpected extras and minute attention to detail that makes this hotel the ideal destination. Take, for instance, the generous welcome bag, bundled with slippers, tea-light candles, jogging map and wristband. Or the in-room espresso machines, hand-made Hypnos beds, and indulgent Molton Brown products.

Such care and consideration is equally apparent in the hotel’s popular restaurant, the Cerise, where inspirational dishes are created daily using the finest local produce. For those fond of the silver screen, The Forbury hosts its own 30-seat cinema screening art-house, box office and re-release reel-to-reel films, while a well-stocked library creates the perfect environment to just sit and reflect.
