A hidden gem right in the heart of the city- close to nearly everything, it is a beautiful building full of kind and friendly people who go to extraordinary lengths to ensure your stay is the best it can possibly be.
I was here only for a few hours in between trips from Glasgow to Paris. What I liked the most was that this place was conveniently located near the British Museum and very near St Pancras train station.

Very good hotel. Staff friendly and helpful. Great location.
Cute, garden themed hotel, located in an area where its easy to get anywhere in London easily. Room was clean and comfortable, and having a bathtub was lovely on nights where the day was spent walking. Staff were friendly snd attentive.
