Liked: Cleanliness
The Zetter was wonderful! The staff were extremely attentive. The rooms are large for London (sitting area and very large bathroom). The lobby/lounge area was amazing, especially the fireplace. The neighborhood was safe and clean and the Farringdon underground station is a five minute walk. The food at the Zetter is first-rate and there are several good restaurants in the neighborhood. We will definitely stay again.

Wonderful neighborhood, with easy access to the tube. Really central location so it was very easy to get around. The room was comfortable and cozy, and the hotel itself was quirky and cute. Friendly staff, and the breakfast was amazing. Worth the money to include it in your stay! Thank you!

Townhouse is beautiful and the staff are really friendly. The room was quite cold though and we couldn't get the heating to work on our first night. TV in rooms are very dated and we couldn't cast to them or stream anything thst was a bit disappointing.

Lovely little boutique hotel in a good location. Not cheap but definitely felt quite special - so worth it for a special occasion. Service was great and would recommend a cocktail or two in the bar.

Funky hotel

The hotel is very eclectic and fun, the room was small but with a four poster bed and the shower was excellent - really powerful. It was a shame that scaffolding was up but the hotel had told us prior to us arriving and there was no noise. Location is good too. The only downside was breakfast. The buffet selection was very poor with nothing being replenished. The cooked order was good but not what we’d actually ordered. We didn’t flag it and just ate what arrived as it had taken a while. So to sum up, a small boutique hotel with funky furnishings in a good location, just breakfast that we felt was below par.
