Charming Small Hotels Britain and Ireland guides you to dream places to stay worth planning your visit around — hotels with genuine character and charm, from budget to luxury.

Every hotel is hand-picked by Fiona Duncan, arguably Britain's most respected hotel critic.

This guide offers a calm, reasoned evaluation of every property inside it. We go to great pains to get under the skin of each hotel, drawing a true word-sketch of what it's really like, and we're not afraid to include the negatives alongside the positives. Every review is genuinely independent — no hotel pays to be included, so what you read is what you'll find.

From chic city hotels and contemporary inns to outstanding B&Bs and captivating country houses, every entry favours places that offer a genuinely personal welcome. This isn't just a bed for the night — it's an experience worth going out of your way for, whatever your budget.

What You'll Discover:

• Genuinely Independent Reviews – No hotel pays to be included, so every recommendation is honest, perfect for travellers who want the full picture.
