Lovely old building. So convenient
Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025

Amazing property, really nice manager and all the bar staff were so helpful- I asked for a special request to have the towels folded and she really outdid herself! The room was absolutely gorgeous and we loved every minute, the bar food downstairs was also fantastic. Nothing but positivity and really made our 3rd anniversary worth it <33

This hotel is over a very tired and noisy pub. Rooms were clean, well apportioned. Thankfully we didn’t spend a lot of time at the property as we were walking a charity marathon overnight but were forewarned about live music and there were ear plugs on the bedside table. £149 and no breakfast - very expensive - the property smells of beer, fried foods and bleach.

Decent accommodation albeit a little noisy on account of the proximity of the railway station. Bathroom a little confined but altogether good value when compared with central London hotels.

The noisiest hotel room I have ever stayed in. The sheets were not clean and the facilities on site where not great.

A great place to stay staff were friendly and happy to help. A super room comfortable bed. Perfect location to tour London.

This is a pub/hotel. It is a pub with a small number of boutique rooms. If you want a templated hotel with all rooms identical then stay at a Premier Inn, Travelodge or Holiday Inn Express. It has character. We had a fantastic bathroom, very comfortable bed and great food in the pub. A twenty minute underground trip into the West End made an ideal location.

Great room, nice coffee and tea facilities and the softest towels. Only drawback was a bit of occasional noise from the train line next door - but ear plugs were also provided!

Rooms were nice, but the noise from downstairs did not stop until 2am and kept us up all night. The person welcoming us in the morning could have been a bit more friendlier and welcoming.

Amazing hotel. Beautifully presented, lovely staff and extremely comfortable bed 😴 although there was very loud music as it's a love music venue, ear plugs were provided and it's very clearly stated on their website.. Absolutely loved this hotel and would definitely visit again 😊
