After a weekend away just after the end of the first lockdown we stopped at N01 Abbey Row on the way home thinking that we may someday get married. Annie is lovely and spent time showing us the hotel & the garden room. Annie discussed the wedding packages available & what could be done in the current times. Everything just worked for us, the garden space is pretty, the garden room modern but the hotel itself holds so much history. We still are not sure how it happened but we found ourselves booking a date for 10 weeks later, we weren’t even engaged at this point!

Over the next weeks we enjoyed a few visits to the restaurant to try the Sunday roast and then again for the menu taster. Zoltan the restaurant Manager & Chef couldn’t have tried harder & all of the staff were helpful & friendly.

Annie worked with us over the next 10 weeks helping & changing the plans as the Covid rules dictated numbers & distancing. A few days before our wedding the numbers were dropped to 15 but Annie helped us to create a new plan for the day.

Our wedding happened, it was absolutely perfect. On the day all of the staff, including the hotel Manager Christophe were kind & attentive even though it must have been difficult as we were all masked & nothing was as it was originally planned.

We enjoyed it so much that we went back 2 weeks later for the weekend with 4 friends that had to be cut from the original guest list. Again, all of the staff were so lovely & the weekend was equally fabulous.

We had an amazing day & are looking forward to going back for our anniversary celebrations.

We were originally planning on getting married abroad in July 2020, however due to COVID-19 we had to cancel the wedding. We decided to have a smaller wedding in the UK for close friends and family, we couldn't have chosen a better venue. We can honestly say we had one of the best days of our lives! From the first online enquiry to our big day the staff were amazing, helpful, reassuring and informative. Special mention and thank you to Annie and Krystian.

Not only is this a fabulous venue to have your wedding but it feels like an event as you have an option to arrive the night before to make it a longer stay, so all your closest friends and family are there to relax and share this special time with you.

Nothing was too much for the No 1 Abbey Row, everything we needed or requested we had. The package offer was great and very straight forward. All our guests commented on how lovely the venue was, again thank you so much.

From the start we have been treated to the very best service, nothing was too much trouble.

All the small gestures from having the crusts cut from the flower girls ham sandwich to the last minute cream tea for the bridal party. To the larger issues of having unexpected accommodation requirements for several family members. These and many more items were dealt with grace and kindness. This resulted in providing us with one of the most memorable days of our lives.

The day was magical. Thank you.

I would like to thank all the staff but particularly Rob, the night chap, who was amazingly kind and professional, what a gem!

We are so very grateful to you all and look forward to seeing you soon.
