Hotel du Vin Henley-on-Thames

Nestled on the banks of the Thames, the Hotel Du Vin which was once a brewery for 300 years combines modern luxuries with gorgeous historic architecture of its time and trade to create a unique and comfortable hotel. Filled with huge oak beams, Georgian ironwork and classic open brick work throughout the hotel and its buildings, it makes a marvellous backdrop and venue for events as well as a luxurious base from which you can explore Henley-on-Thames.

The three stunning rooms here are tasteful in décor and feature real rustic charm. The largest room, The Lombard has an almost industrial feel to it, with stone archways, murals on the walls, brick and iron work, and can accommodate up to 100 standing guests for a reception, 56 seated theatre-style or 72 dining. Vineyards is an exquisitely charming space with garden views and flooded with natural lighting. It can accommodate up to 50 guests for dinner or would make a cosy boardroom for 28 delegates. Finally, the Canata, with its striking mezzanine and beamed high ceilings is ideal for dining and parties. Filled with rustic charm you can seat 36 for a dinner or a drinks reception for 60.

All rooms are private, feature Air conditioning and Wi-Fi and flat screens are available if required. Outside, you can take advantage of the private courtyard for a summer BBQ or drinks reception. The events team will assist you with all your planning from booking to the end of your event. The hotel provides many events packages and menus for weddings and meetings.

For those lucky enough to be spending a night or two at the hotel can be treated to sumptuously decorated rooms and suites, again combining rustic features of its historic brewery past with luxurious comforts. Dine in the Bistro at the heart of the hotel where British meets French cuisine or relax in the bar with a drink beneath the oak beams in the snug.
