Super, quirky room, like upcycled Victoriana. Comfy bed with big pillows. Clean and spacious. Very good value. For this price you could stay in a grotty hotel rather than a pleasant room full of character. Walking distance to an event I had in Westminster. I’d stay again without hesitation.

Staff were very polite and helpful. The room wasn’t the most salubrious but I kind of liked it that way. I like that the windows can open up and get fresh air.

A good option for staying in London. Close to transit and with good food served in the pub. Simple accomodations with everything you need for a short stay.

Good size room with useful albeit small fridge. Despite reporting it, the internet did not work. The hotel (rooms above a pub) were not close to a tube station but there are nearby shops and restaurants.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Staff we met were great, welcoming despite our early check in appearance. Rooms are very tired looking, milk in a jug was off by evening. The rooms were very warm although fans offered some bottled water would have been a welcome addition. Bed and linen very clean and comfortable. Access to tube and central embankment great only. 15 mins walk away. Ok for an overnighter stay but I wouldn't be rushing back .

A bit disappointed with the location, seems to be a lot further away from Shaftsbury theatre than we were told. Bar closed at 10.30pm. which is quite early. Bar staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Coffee was in short supply and I felt that instant coffee should be an option.

A hidden gem of a hotel

Fabulous rooms over a really nice but nice but rowdy pub conveniently located in South London near south bank. Provided a fridge with oat milk and Nespresso machine. Also 10% off drinks at bar.

The room smelled of smoke. I had to ask for a working fan as the one in the room was broke.

Lovely Room

The location was ideal for our trip to the theatre. The room was lovely and clean upon arrival and the lady that checked us in was very friendly. The room was a bit warm but there were fans provided to cool it down and cold drinks available in an upstairs fridge. As well as plenty of team and coffee
