Set on the hill at the edge of the town, the Reigate Manor Hotel does more than just offer a good night's rest to the weary traveller.

From 7am until 11pm non-staying guests can pop in and take their time to enjoy everything from a morning coffee, through to a late night dram, with breakfast, afternoon tea and dinner served in between.

Many hotels are now opening their doors to passing trade and making a luxury stop-in more accessible to many more visitors throughout the week.

So if you fancy a little luxury but prefer your own bed, or live so close it seems a tad too extravagant to stay, it doesn't exclude you from meeting friends and family for evening cocktails, a Sunday get together over a roast you haven't had to make - or a coffee and chat with the 'girls'.

The Reigate Manor Hotel offers an extensive variety of function rooms and event space, from the cosy Library Bar through to the Ballroom, Music Room, The Study, Conservatory and fully staffed Restaurant. Whether you are looking for an intimate setting for a informal party or a conference space to host your next business seminar, you will find at least one room to suit your agenda.

We spoke to Giles Thomas (General Manager) about some of the events planned for the year ahead, which includes Dinner Discos, the Manor Jazz Club and the Reigate Gag House Comedy Club, which launched last night (21st April).

Next month Nicholas Owen will be hosting a charity quiz night on May 5th, complete with Fish & Chips dinner in included in the price.

With plans to develop the Cellar space in the hotel, to offer a separate function area, complete with additional exclusive entry point, it would seem that there is a lot more happening at this 'Hotel on the Hill' than sleeping.

Perfect for a morning breakfast meet with work colleagues and prospective clients, the Reigate Manor Hotel offers a very friendly welcome, efficient service and the space to work, rest and play.
