About Us

History

After a 24-month refurbishment project, Hurley House Hotel (previously called the Red Lyon) opened its doors to guests in August 2016.

The location of the site was paramount in the decision to rebuild the old pub into a luxury boutique hotel/restaurant.

Hurley House Hotel is the brainchild of Bassam Shlewet (founder and former Chairman of Moneycorp).

The goal was to create a destination venue that raises the bar of expectation. With a substantial financial investment and the help of a great team, Bassam carefully and painstakingly assembled every element to create a contemporary, stylish venue where excellent food and drink can be enjoyed in comfortable surroundings; where leather, granite, limestone, oak and other notable materials combine in a beautiful colour scheme to provide an elegant and discreetly luxurious atmosphere.

The hotel offers:

10 en-suite bedrooms with five-star amenities
Elegant restaurant and stylish bar
Private dining rooms
Unique outdoor terraces and BBQ grill
Adaptable Garden Pavilion, for weddings and special events
Parking for up to 65 cars, including electric charging stations (2 Tesla points)
Licensed Wedding Venue

Hurley House Hotel is located in the heart of Berkshire. The Hotel is easily accessible from the towns of Henley-on-Thames, Marlow & Maidenhead, with quick access to the M4, M40, Heathrow and Central London.
