Lovely room in a lovely hotel. Felt hidden and off the beaten track, though it really wasn’t. Easily one of our favourite hotels in London

From check-in to check-out, every need was taken care of. The staff is top-notch and so friendly. They even supplied us some washing up liquid so my partner could try and take care of a stain on their clothing from dinner. Breakfast in the morning was delicious. The common areas are lovely spaces to relax and have a drink.

Fantastic
What a beautiful and friendly hotel tucked away in the corner of Farringdon. Quirky and beautiful in equal measure. It felt like an oasis of calm.

Not great, weird plumbing
This joint needs maintenance. Plumbing is from Victorian era. Pipes gurgling all night. WC water flush is so extreme it comes out the bowl & onto the seat and floor. Gross. Dirty carpet.
We were expecting old fashioned not defunct.
