Very good

It’s an old charming hotel. Housekeeping staff kept the room clean and tidy everyday. Not sure if rooms have A/C, we were there during the winter and room and bathroom heat was old style but does the job, there were 2 small electric fans so we used both for air circulation. There was sewer smell in the hallways and room that comes and goes but got worse one night when we got back from a daytrip, so bad that it gave me a headache! We opened the window and door and reported it to the reception desk, did not get any update from them afterwards.
Lovely hotel for the money. Minutes from the tube station. Very clean and comfortable. If driving, it’s worth pre booking somewhere through a parking app.
Nice, clean, well located. The only downside, and this is a big issue, there is no elevator and the whole property is not accessible. Our room was on the fourth floor, the staircase is tiny and if you have any larger luggage it is painful to get up or down.
Other than that it is a fantastic location.
Nice hotel but it's actually located in a noisey area. All I heard while I was trying to sleep were people yelling and vehicles making unnecessary noise outside. There were a few motorcyclists that kept blasting this extremely annoying sound that lasted for a good 20 minutes. This was regular occurrence during a couple of nights.
The room that I was in was extremely tiny and very hard to walk around. I kept banging into everything. The bed was also not very comfortable.
The location is good. It is close to shops and the underground.
But would I stay again? No.
The room was nice, house keeping was terrific. It felt like we had the place to ourselves it was so quiet. They allowed us to check in early. I can't thank them enough for that after traveling all night!
Weekend in London. Love these old buildings set around a square garden. Good view over the city from room 3 (top floor). Quite a few stairs (no lift) so a decent workout! but maybe not suited for everyone.
Very clean hotel in good condition, looks fairly recently refurbished throughout. Rooms were a good size with wardrobe and dressing table, really nice bathroom with great shower, large sash window, comfortable bed, everything worked, very clean, friendly check in and informed about luggage storage at both check in and check out. Daily room service was appreciated. Will stay again, my girlfriend says I'm in charge of booking hotels from now on!!
I didn't like the room and services at all. I was planing to stay 10 nights , ended up to one night.
Thankfully London has so many new buildings safer, cleaner, better services.
Very conveniently located on a quiet street just a few minutes walk to 2 tube stations that gave great access to the whole London area.
Room was spotless, bed very comfortable but they need better pillows.
I was a single traveller which means a small room, with very little space for even 1 small suitcase.
I would stay again especially for the convenient location.
