The Buck INN

What guests think

The Buck INN is centrally located in Richmond, where many guests praise the welcoming staff and overall value, with generally comfortable, often spacious rooms that suit simple stays rather than modern, luxury expectations.

Rooms are frequently described as spacious and comfortable but dated, with some reports of stained carpets, bathroom mould, temperamental showers, or light from street lamps getting past thin curtains. Parking is a recurring issue due to the lack of on-site spaces, relying on time-limited discs, pay-and-display, or free spots a walk away, while the pub and a garden offer places to relax. Breakfast is consistently well liked, though evening meals are not always available, leading some guests to eat elsewhere. A practical base with character and a few compromises.

We didn't stay at this hotel because we were lead to believe that parking was included but it was only for two hours then car had to be moved to paying car park then moved again at 6pm till 8am. Husband has difficulty walking so it wasn't convenient.

Room was clean but carpet bady stained and lots of mould on ceiling in shower. Reception was very cluttered but staff pleasant. Breakfast ok. Disc parking. Luckily we arrived at 4.30 pm otherwise disc would have expired and we would have had to find alternate parking. Would not stay here again.

Welcoming and friendly staff. Relaxed atmosphere. Good breakfasts (But no yogurts selections). Room was good enough for what I needed. But, there is a bright LED street light outside the window that on all night. Makes it difficult to blackout the room, even with the blinds. Parking is an issue due to no hotel parking. All local parking is either P&D or two-hour hours free on issued paper parking timers. 8am to 6pm. Unless you find a free residential parking area around a 15-20 min walk away. Overall, the stay was a good value for money trip.

Generally very good stay. Landlady made me feel at home and lent me a parking disc which gave me free parking until 10.00am the next morning. Very nice cooked breakfast with cereal and proper coffee. Only small issue was that the curtains let in more street lamp light than I'm used to. Blackout curtains would have been ideal.

Basic but comfortable and clean. I am not a fan of a double bed against a wall, so you can only get in one side. Awkward for a couple who both need to get in and out during the night. But i understand why they do it, so they can fit another bed in

The room although ok could really do with some improvements. We suggested most of them to the B&B when we last stayed in the same room 2 years ago and there has been a decline in standards since then rather than the other way around. The pub has also stopped serving food after breakfast which was a massive disappointment. Despite great location, I cannot see us booking here again. If the owners would like some specific pointers we would be happy to help. We didn't discuss with them as they had a very busy weekend planning and running some lovely functions.
