Grosvenor House Publishing Reviews 

The efficiency and effectiveness at Grosvenor House is exceptional. Julie Scott and Melanie Bartle worked diligently to make the publishing process so enjoyable.

I decided to look into GHP after coming across them in the W&A yearbook. The service is excellent. I have worked with Jasmine on my first three books, and I can't tell you how impressed I've been. GHP will get my next book, which I hope will be published in the first half of 2026. They also produce great covers!

Would heartily recommend GHP. A clear pricing structure, together with timely guidance and advice provided through every stage of the process by the excellent Jasmine Damaris, made my experience with the company very positive indeed.

I am so glad that I decided to use GHP. I enjoyed umpteen rejections of my military history book by all the recognised publishers of that genre. All of them said they liked it, that it was well written etc., but all wanted to cut the length by half and one said they no longer publish titles about the Napoleonic war era. Simply frustrating, not least because of the amount of time the depressing process wasted. But with GHP I had positive responses and moreover felt in control from the start. They were really helpful (many thanks Julie!) throughout, with everything carefully explained. The far too numerous changes I requested after each proof were cheerfully accepted (and very carefully incorporated). They pushed really hard to make the deadline I had to impose to make a pre-arranged book launch, for which I was particularly grateful.

If you have a book that nobody wants to publish, but which you know should be out there, use GHP. You will not be disappointed. My book is formally out today and it’s a great thrill to see it advertised on Amazon, Waterstones etc. I simply wouldn’t have been able to do it without Grosvenor House Publishing.

I have recently self-published my second book with GHP and I can't fault the professionalism and dedication of the team. From the first email to having the book in my hands; I have received the best service - keeping me up to date with progress and answering my questions. The finished book is of outstanding quality and the book size, cover design and font have been the initial compliments received.
I cannot thank GHP enough for their help and support with both of my books and I am currently working towards another project which I intend to work with GHP again- to see my work come to life!

Thanks to Grosvenor House, I now have a real-life actual book that you can hold, complete with words and pages! I had the privilege of being able to work with the inimitable Melanie. It took me a little bit longer to publish my book ‘Toddler on Tour: Viva España’ as I had my second daughter during this time, but Melanie was exceptionally patient and talked me through the processes from start to finish. She shared my vision and I am very proud of the final product (in both paperback and ebook). Thanks to Melanie, I feel like I’ve had a crash course in publishing and this has given me the confidence to embark on the next stage of promoting my book and hopefully, writing the sequel. To any would-be authors, I would whole-heartedly recommend Grosvenor House Publishing.

It has been a delight and a pleasure being published by Grosvenor; the entire experience smooth from prompt answering of the initiating phone call forward. Editing by Polly Warren transformed a scrappy draft into a coherent narrative and Melanie Bartle's skilled and thoughtful oversight could not be bettered. And the charges were incredibly reasonable. Well done all!

I’m incredibly grateful to Jasmine for helping me bring my book into the world, and being so patient with my constant mind changes and questions.

If you're an author searching for a self-publishing house that’s professional and genuinely invested, I can’t recommend Grosvenor House highly enough, and don't forget to ask for Jasmine :)

As a first time author, I was nervous and impatient but Julie and the team from Grosvenor House Publishing where amazing from start to finish. Supportive, understanding and extremely patient. I can't recommend them enough

This was my first book, so I was very apprehensive. Melanie and her team were so supportive and guided me through every step of the way. I couldn't have done it without them.

I found GHP through word of mouth and couldn’t be more pleased with the process. Having had several books published previously I’d lost my publishers during Covid and spent a couple of years in the wilderness.
I worked with Jasmine who helped me through the whole process. I love the formatting and cover of my book, ‘Ragdolls don’t lie’. It follows the look of my previous novels perfectly and I am excited now to see it advertised on Amazon linked to the others.
I couldn’t recommend GHP highly enough.

Although this a project that needed a lot of tweaking, Melanie and her team were patient, helpful, professional at all times. I fully recommend them for your project. It will be in good hands!

From start to finish, my experience of dealing with Julie Scott in regards to having my book, Success, self-published has been amazing.
Her eye for detail, her information, her guidance, her optional suggestions, her professionalism, her clarity, her recollection of our correspondence, her know how, her experience, her pleasant temperament, has been spot on for the book, Success, making it to print.

Thank you Grosvenor House Publishing

I am a first time writer and used GPH to self publish my book. Melanie was very helpful and empathetic to the fact that it was my first time. She held my hand every step of the process. She was timely with her response and never seemed to tire in answering my questions as one can only imagine from a first timer. It was a very satisfying and pleasing experience.

I have thoroughly enjoyed working with the Grosvenor publishing team. I started working with Julia Scott, who was very professional and showed a big interest in me and my book. I continued the publishing process by working with Melanie Bartle, who has been just as passionate and understanding and professional as
Julia.

This is the 3rd publisher that I have tried and they have been the most affordable and easy to work with. They have given the confidence to believe that my first novel 'The Furniture Being' will be a success.

This is a very affordable book publishing company, they are easy to work with and also very informative about the process and what to expect. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who wants to publish a book or book series.

Working with GHP is been a brilliant experience from start to finish for me. I was apprehensive about which self publishing company to choose and they came on recommendation from a friend. Melanie has been a delight to work with, always responding efficiently. I knew exactly what was happening and when. I would also like to add the clear and concise information GHP provide is excellent. The costs are detailed so you know exactly what you are paying for- and so reasonable too. I would thoroughly recommend them. Thank you Melanie and all at GHP!

E-mail and telephones are answered well but the listings cost is a bit much if you have a lot of books. Also, the staff are very professional and kind so that helps me a lot too. I have done seven children's educational books with GHP so far. My experience with GHP is good. I am sure the business will grow to include books in subjects such as Maths too.

Working with Grosvenor House Publishing has been a fantastic experience, especially with Jasmine, who provided exceptional support throughout the entire process. I highly recommend them to any author as a reliable and professional publishing house.

Working with Melanie and the team at Grosvenor House Publishing has been an absolute pleasure. As this was my debut novel, the process felt both exciting and daunting, but Melanie’s expertise, patience, and unwavering support made all the difference. There were times when things felt tough and challenging, but she always inspired me to keep going. Her encouragement gave me the motivation I needed to push through. Everything was explained to me in great detail.

She is truly a maestro at what she does, communication was on point & responded to every email promptly. Her ability to make me feel like I was her sole focus is a rare and special gift. I honestly can’t recommend Grosvenor House Publishing enough! They are a fantastic team of people who are passionate about what they do. If you’re thinking about publishing a book, don’t hesitate—this is the team you want by your side.

Melanie, it has been an absolute joy working with you, and I mean that from the bottom of my heart. You have been a star throughout this entire journey, and I truly cannot thank you enough!

My first book and so glad I chose GHP. It has been a wonderful customer experience from Julie and then Melanie taking me through all the steps and guiding me when required. I had spoken with a few publishers but got a really good feeling about this one and would 100% recommend them to anyone publishing a book and especially for the first time.
