We chose this hotel for Kit Kemp's design and the location. We had a lovely time!
Pros: The room was lovely and the AC was great during the summer. The staff were helpful. Cons: Nothing in particular
I LIKED IT
Pros: BEST BREAKFAST EVER Cons: THE ROOMS WERE SMALL
Lovely small hotel with a garden
Pros: Lovely smaller hotel that has great location, nice sheets and towels, beautiful decorated with a pretty garden, friendly staff and good made to order breakfast. Staff was friendly and helpful at front desk. Cons: Although we enjoyed and appreciated the friendliness and warmth of the dining staff and being able to get a hot breakfast, breakfast service was very slow and and sometimes disorganized, a few small tweaks could make it even better experience. Rooms are small, but that’s to be expected in London.
