We loved our stay here. The rooms are quaint yet spacious. The staff is friendly and they serve a delicious breakfast. We will definitely stay here again if we return to London.
Lovely property, huge modern bathroom and generous breakfast. The location was excellent - 10 minutes to Victoria station, about 15 minutes walk to Buckingham Palace, about 20 minutes walk to Big Ben, Houses of Parliament and Westminster. The staff were very accomodating.
This is a family run property of 12 or 15 rooms. A cooked breakfast was provided that was very good. The staff were very friendly and provided advice on transportation and nearby restaurants. The bathroom was very modern, conveniently arranged, and clean. Our room had a loveseat, desk and chair, wardrobe and bed. The room was big enough for us to open our large suitcases. It is located an easy walk to Victoria Station. The hotel does have an elevator although there may still be some short flights of steps involved.
The property was absolutely amazing! just a few highlights:
- customer service was impeccable
- hotel building itself has true British character
- hotel is very quiet
- the complimentary breakfast choices are amazing
- the owners and the overall hotel staff are very helpful
- it is very easy to walk to multiple transportation options as well as historic landmarks (like Westminster Abbey, Big Ben, etc)
Excellent customer service from the staff. The breakfast was excellent with lots of choices. Location is perfect for transport, dining etc
The only let down was the shower in my room was not clean and housekeeping did not give me a clean cup or replenish the tea tray.
Overall I would stay there again.
I rarely write a review but this hotel deserves one! A family run gem with attention to detail. All staff are very welcoming and accommodating. Breakfast is of an excellent quality. We could not fault it and will be returning.
Nice boutique hotel on a quiet street, charming spacious room, clean, comfy bed, good breakfast, staff is very friendly and accommodative. Will be back when in London.
Nice little hotel with friendly staff, from the time we walked in to the time we left we felt very welcome, nice area from the hassle of busy London. Lovely breakfast and would return again
What a great place to stay! So glad I found it. Smaller place with lovely rooms and helpful staff. Enjoyed the breakfast too. I walked all over London from here. And some lovely places to catch a bite nearby as well. I'd be happy to stay there again.
I can’t say enough good things about this wonderful hotel. It has every amenity and a top-notch breakfast (get the full grid!), and it’s family owned and operated, so there’s very much a personal touch.
Conveniently located near Victoria, but also in a quiet little part of Pimlico. Highly recommended!
