    Went here for a quiet lunch with a friend. The staff were charming and attentive, but not intrusive . Nothing appeared rushed but very efficient ,relaxed and stylish . Really enjoyable. Will certainly return.

    Our evening at Espelette was really lovely, we took advantage of the special offer, which was good value but the choice was a bit restricted

    Nice elegant room, had to wait a while sometimes to catch a waiter. The quality of the food is superb, and would be a fine portion size if it was part of a five or seven course tasting menu, not as two courses for the set menu. Fine if you are on a diet or have a small appetite. Not so sure about £6 for a coffee or a bottle of water, but I guess I am not the target client who is probably a hotel guest.

    I grew up in Bermuda where the restaurants and service were some of the best in the world. I was so impressed with the service at Espelette, in fact I would go as far as it was the best service I have ever received in a restaurant . The staff were extremely attentive and the value for money was good as well. We went for the 3 course special for £35 including a glass of champagne . We asked for tea at the end and they brought out a special box where you can smell all the fragrant teas. It was an amazing experience and from what I can tell the hotel is pretty special as well . If you are looking for a romantic meal or something special this is the restaurant to go to. I didn't actually stay in the hotel however after this experience I would be looking to take my husband back here for a romantic get away. Well done to all the staff who made this meal exceptional.

    Restaurant was quiet but that as ideal as we wanted to chat. We had a love.y French waiter who couldn't do enough for us - he was fantastic - really made the evening. We had the set menu - fantastic value and lovely food. Great evening - would recommend.

    The GBP 35 set meal was great value. Three delicious courses and a glass of Champagne. Dinning room had a nice, quite ambience with a lovely view of the square.
