Wonderful experience at the Mad Hatter. Fun theme for a hotel and the staff were all very friendly and helpful. Somewhat quirky and light hearted. The room was a decent size and clean. It had everything we needed as if we were home. We will most definitely return.

This is the second time i have stayed here. The rooms and especially the bathrooms could do with being updated but other than that the rooms are clean but also very warm especially in the summer (fans were supplied in the rooms). The staff are friendly and happy to give advice when needed. The hotel is situated close to the Tate Modern and Borough Market. There is also a lot more activity on the southbank with loads of different street food vendors and restaurants along the bank. Will definitely stay here again on my next visit to London

This is a great little hotel, but I saw on one booking site that it had air conditioning. It does not have a/c so the rooms got a little warm. Other than that, the hotel is in a good location, 15 minute walk to a lot of touristy stuff

Very nice small hotel over a great pub. Rooms are very clean. Staff was really nice. Hotel is in a great location for visiting all of the London attractions. Very walkable location. Most of the major attractions are less than 2 miles away with many being only a mile. You can easily walk everywhere! Close to the train station.
