Overall this was a nice boutique hotel. The rooms have a lot of character and a vintage feel, in a cool way. The room was clean, spacious, and had all the amenities you could need. In a great area of London, lots of shops, pubs, restaurants, and public transit. The reason I give 4 stars is bc the check-in process is not quite 4star and the bathroom sink didn’t drain well.

Great service! Not very clean-feeling

Stains on sheets and towels which made it feel not so clean. We saw quite a bit of ants in our room, one sink was constantly leaking and one turned off by itself after a few seconds.

The two rooms that we booked were so cute. The suite room had a couch and an outside patio which was very nice to have as we traveled with family. I loved that the bathroom as the tub had a claw tub and the ground was heated. It is a very charming and rustic. I would definitely go back.

Old fashioned property with modern facilities. Carpet could have been cleaner and the sofa had stains on it. Great location. Friendly helpful staff. I liked the place. I did break my toe on the bed leg but that was my fault not the hotels.

I really liked the room we were presented with, bath in the room, mini bar well stocked and above a pub, which we stayed during the week and wasn't noisy at all. Robes in room and food downstairs, nice touch. Worth the money, the check in was easy, there was mild confusion with trying to take food up to our room for my daughter who was wanting to take a bath, but other than that is was a GEM of a stay and will recommend! The tea and expresso in room were complimentary.

Delightful

This is a cute boutique hotel. It's part of the pub and takes you back in time to a different era. Our room was a charming suite with a copper bath tub, a skylight in the living room, and our own private patio with a living room setup. Rooms were romantic and comfy. We'll definitely return. Note, there are no elevators in this hotel. We were on the second floor so we only had to haul our luggage up one flight but that could've been more burdensome if we had to walk up another flight.

The room was small but very charming. We only stayed one night, so it worked for us; however, if we had been staying longer, it would have been tight or cluttered with our suitcases and surface area to put your daily items, like a crossbody, wallet, etc. The bathroom was a good size as well. We were on the top floor, so getting luggage up and down really sucked. Even though I knew in advance the staircase could be an issue, it was still a shock to go up four floors with full-sized luggage! Oops! We got there early, and at any hotel, an early check-in is always a gamble, but I was a little surprised that they were so strict about the 3:00 pm check-in. Usually, if a room is ready early, you can access it sooner. Not a huge deal for us as we went straight into sightseeing, but if you are hoping to get in early, it is likely not possible. The staff were friendly and accommodating in holding our luggage in a locked area. We had a plumbing issue, and they resolved it right away, even though it was late at night. The pub was close to multiple subway stations, which was great. We unfortunately didn't eat or drink at the pub so can't speak to that.

Fint med förbättringar att göra

Supertrevligt hotell ovanpå en klassisk brittisk pub. Nära Farrington Station och smidigt att ta sig till och från hotellet. Tyvärr hade restaurangen slut på nästan allt på menyn när vi skulle äta vilket var synd. Rummet var jättefint och erbjöd snacks gratis, det uppskattades! Det som drar ner mitt betyg är att fönstret inte gick att stänga. I och med minusgrader utomhus var det väldigt kallt i rummet. Jag försökte med AC att dra upp tempen men den lät väldigt högt och är nog i behov av en rejäl service. Kommer jag bo här igen? Ja! (Om de löser fönsterna).
