Moved me into a single room (which felt like a closet) because of overbooking. Did give me a credit and also moved my 2 friends into an attic room.
Closed the bar early the first night we were there which was a bit disappointing as my friends had arrived late from different parts of the world.
Breakfast was delicious, the service was very good and the staff friendly. Lounge areas very comfortable and location was great.

Nice boutique hotel - room at the front into the street but wasn’t disturbed by any noise at night.
Staff were excellent - v welcoming.
Room was a great size and well appointed.
Didn’t me as I need the exercise but a lot of stairs. Bellman carried the luggage up and down so no issue.

Friendly and helpful staff. We checked in very late at night and got a very small room with difficult access in the lower floor. We asked for a change of room and the next we were moved to much nicer and larger room. The staff was very helpful to accommodate our request

Lovely, slightly quirky boutique hotel with helpful staff. Recently refurbished, well-appointed rooms. Good continental breakfast. Very well situated in a good area that feels very safe at night, with access to several different underground lines.

Lovely boutique, independent hotel walkable to the University of London, parks and "Store Street" of Bloomsbury around the corner--local cafes, wine bars and restaurants. The staff at this hotel was courteous and helpful. The library and back garden were extra bonuses. Highly recommend this hotel for a stay in London.

Really lovely hotel, the interiors were well picked and the space beautifully designed. Lots of hotels in London are very clinical and minimal, but this hotel felt like it was a beautiful home from home. Great service from staff, quick walk to the tube station and felt secure with key card entry into the hotel too.

Very nice modern room and bathroom, great location close to many sights. No ac that I could find, so might be hot in summer.

Got stuck in London on am unexpected overnight layover. Foe the price, room was nice, comfortable and more or less clean (bitnof a mildew smell in the bathroom). The two best thi gs about this place is the service and location.

This hotel is in a great location in Bloomsbury, but tucked away on a quiet street. The public areas are relaxed and comfortable and the outside space is fantastic. The bar and restaurant are perfect for the type of hotel. The rooms are very comfortable and well decorated, and the bathrooms are clean with plenty of amenities. I will return.

No toilet brush
Only 1nightstand on 1side of the bed

Unfortunately the room was very noisy, and noisy residents. The air conditioner and fire alarm had very bright lights making it difficult to sleep. And a musty smell in bathroom.

Hotel is definitely not a 5 star hotel. Lobby, sitting area and garden are pretty, but hotel has absolutely ZERO vibes. Bar and garden area never had an attendant during our stay. Complimentary breakfast was missable. Minibar you’re told is free, but also was never replenished. No lift. Towel warmer didn’t function. Room was comfortable and clean. Would have been okay if it were 200per night. Best part of the hotel is the adorable street next to it called Store Street. And breakfast at Honey & Co daily.

Great boutique hotel in a quiet hamlet of London, walkable to all major Ashens, including the British museum, which was right around the corner. Would definitely stay there again.
