Not a very good stay
We didn’t realize the hotel did not have an elevator, and we had heavy luggage and had to walk up five flights of stairs. The room is very small and there were no amenities (beverages, etc). The water pressure was also very weak. The woman at the desk was very nice though and apologetic It was still tough walking up and down five flights of stairs every time you wanted to leave the room. The location was great, but would not stay again.

The receptionist was so sweet and answered any questions that we had about the area!
The hotel ensured, before my stay, that I knew, completely, the room size and amenities. They communicated with me to ensure they knew when to expect me.
A very traditional Victorian tradition hotel with all the charm. Brilliant location. No lift, not a problem for us but beware if you need a lift.
Pimlico underground around the corner and quick easy access to all of London from a safe location.
