Perfect for a night’s stay for a singleton in the City of London. Breakfast was included in the price and I’d thoroughly recommend the porridge and full English options which were yummy!

Staff are friendly and helpful. Have stayed here several times over the past year. Would highly recommend. Comfortable beds and beautiful rooms. The rooms are serviced daily to a very high standard. Fantastic location. Unfortunately the bar is too busy in the evening to eat in. The food is high quality. Could only be improved if they did room service for the bar food in the evenings.

Awesome place to have base camp for exploring London. The rooms are spacious and affordable. The staff there were amazing and provided exceptional recommendations along with answering all of my questions. The underground was only 3-5 minute walk and it was only 20 minutes or less on the underground to get to the major attractions. I had to switch hotels when I hit the work part of my trip in London to a chain hotel and boy was I regretting leaving the counting house.

Good location if you need to work or do things in the area. Hotel room is clean and modern. Comfy bed. Just an issue I had, the bar/resturant of hotel doesn’t have food late at night when they are still open. Nearest place, a 10min walk

Lovely find for a weekend in London.
The counting house is a hotel at the side of a pub there is a separate entrance. The room was small but was perfect for what we needed. Had a great nights sleep over the 2 nights, it’s so quiet. Mini bar was complimentary with water and soft drinks. Also provided is an iron, hairdryer and toiletries. Breakfast is included in the room price and was delicious on both mornings. They also catered for gluten free. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Very happy with the hotel.

Staff were amazing
Outstanding service in a very well kept boutique hotel. Food was just as good as the service. The location sits just a few blocks from the subway stations. You will hardly need to use them as many attractions, restaurants, and shopping are only a short walk from the hotel.

Great find. Rooms A1. Staff so helpful. Room was ready so allowed to check in a little early and bags stored on checkout for later pick up. Breakfast was great start to the morning. Good location for tube, buses or just walk. Will definitely go again. Great value for money in the city location.
