This is our second time at the Windermere. We love the helpful staff, clean room, 10-15 walk from Victoria Station, and (included) breakfast. Plus they honored the Expedia perks. Highly recommended for a cozy stay in a safe area.
The room was clean and charming, the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The breakfast was fantastic, and the location was ideal, right next to Victoria Station.

We had a great stay at this hotel in London. The room was fresh, spacious, and the beds were very comfortable. The staff were incredibly friendly and made it feel like a small family-run hotel. Breakfast was well-cooked with a good enough selection, served in a cosy breakfast café. It’s also within walking distance of Victoria Station, and overall very good value for money.
We have stayed here before, as an ideal spot to meet with friends for an overnight visit to London. The hotel room is always clean and the staff are very welcoming & polite. A delicious breakfast on our departure day is an added bonus.
Perfect location, clean room and large clean bathroom.
We enjoyed having an elevator and the breakfast was delicious that was included in the price of the room.
The hotel is charming, well placed and very clean. The inclusion of breakfast was a major factor in our booking, and we were so pleased with it! The food was absolutely delicious. Very importantly, the staff were so kind and helpful. Anything we needed, or any questions we had...they were right there for it. Highly recommended!

Lovely welcome at the hotel by the owner. We were able to drop our luggage at reception in the morning and go exploring. Room 11 was double aspect at the front of the hotel but still quiet. The room was clean and a reasonable size. The bathroom was compact but modern and had everything you need. The twin beds were very comfortable. The excellent complimentary breakfast was served in a lovely restaurant downstairs
Top notch in every way - every staff member made you feel like family!

Room was very clean, breakfast was good, coffee was also really good. The lady who cooked breakfast was a very nice & friendly. She smiled the whole time while talking to us. The owner was there & she was really nice as well. Also staff & everyone was so nice & friendly. The location is great.
