A stylish, small, beautiful hotel in a Georgian building in a peaceful square. Breakfast and cocktails were excellent as was the service. Would definitely stay again.

Wonderful, quirky hotel. The staff are so friendly, the place is very clean, the breakfast is delicious and you get little extras in your room like home made shortbread, robes and postcards. It’s an amazing place to stay.

Lovely homely hotel in a great location for West End and City. And only 5 mins walk to trains for airport. This property felt like a home from home and is a great place to escape the hustle and bustle of the city.
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.
Just a wonderful spot to stay that feels like home. Warm, so friendly and such a pleasure to stay. Lovely quiet spot where you can truly relax with well appointed rooms in an incredibly well located location. Team were just wonderful. Thank you!
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!
This is an excellent hotel in a perfect location 10 min walk from Farringdon. Its further enhanced by the superb staff whose service is second to none. The breakfast is of a very high quality. Its located 2 min walk from the incredible St John's Priory
