Lovely room in a lovely hotel. Felt hidden and off the beaten track, though it really wasn’t. Easily one of our favourite hotels in London

From check-in to check-out, every need was taken care of. The staff is top-notch and so friendly. They even supplied us some washing up liquid so my partner could try and take care of a stain on their clothing from dinner. Breakfast in the morning was delicious. The common areas are lovely spaces to relax and have a drink.

Nice big room. Not used to the taps in the sink and shower, but made it work. Our room was right be the street so a little bit loud at night. People still in the street at 4 am

Fantastic and very beautiful quirky hotel with first class service and in a great location. Staff could not have been anymore helpful. Room full of art and gorgeous antique furniture. Lots of choice of public areas to relax in as well. All in all a truly great hotel.
