Happy at Hampton Court

Share via

I read with pleasure “Your Palace for the Night” (March 26), Don Whitehead’s account of his family’s stay at England’s Hampton Court Palace. In November, my husband and I also stayed at the Fish Court apartment there. Our time there was one of the most incredible experiences of our lives.

I was surprised that Whitehead did not mention the Hampton Court Palace staff, who went out of their way to make us feel welcome. Every security guard, guide or administrator whom we encountered (even while wandering through the deserted palace courtyards at 1 a.m.) was friendly, helpful, patient and unfailingly cheerful, as well as knowledgeable about the history of the palace.

They helped to make our time at Fish Court an enchanting and truly unforgettable experience.
