Dining at The Malvern Hills Hotel

Dining at the Malvern Hills Hotel

Whenever and wherever you choose to eat and drink at the Malvern Hills Hotel you will be assured of the finest, freshest, locally sourced produce selected by our highly experienced chef and his team. You can choose between eating "Alfresco" on our spacious terrace, relaxing in our famous eighteenth century oak lounge bar or in either of our charming restaurants.

The "Vu Restaurant" has a smart, contemporary look with stylish chairs, sophisticated tableware and a stunning collection of black and white postcards dating from the 1800s. A dramatic wall of glass panels wrap around this delightful space enabling you to experience the magical sunsets whilst enjoying a fabulous meal with friends and family or an intimate dinner for two. It is a setting meant to impress!

The Dining Room is a larger, more formal area that has functional elegance with tall ceilings, soft floral paintings and a timeless Welsh dresser. This restaurant is ideal for private functions.

The oak lounge bar is perfect for pre and post dinner drinks. Each evening a welcoming glow awaits and the candles flicker warmly against the wood panelling and the enchanting log fire is a wonderful treat through the cold winter months. The lounge is even CAMRA-recommended.

Please note: As of 1st February 2007 the hotel has been non-smoking throughout, and this includes all dining and bar areas.
