History
In 1930, Sir Harold Sutcliffe acquired Great Fosters and turned it into a hotel after restoration and refurbishment. The estate quickly gained a reputation as a first-class destination.

In 1931 Queen Mary visited the hotel, and in June of that year, the Ascot Ball was held at the hotel. After almost 90 years of ownership under the Sutcliffe name, Alexander Hotels bought the property in 2018.

Touring Guide
Great Fosters is the perfect place to stay and discover loads of attractions in the area. If you’re into the royals, then visit Windsor Castle, the largest inhabited fortress in the world and the Queen’s weekend home. Or Hampton Court Palace, a Tudor and Baroque palace with world-famous gardens, is a must. If nature is something of interest, RHS Garden Wisley, the flagship show garden of the Royal Horticultural Society, is worth visiting.

Even if literature is more up your street, take the opportunity to explore the magical Warner Bros. Studio Tour, where you’ll be able to explore the Harry Potter film sets and come face to face with movie props. Or pay a visit to Jane Austen’s House, where you will gain insight into her life.
