Cheeky Get Away
Check in perfect. Welcoming. Easy. We arrived early - and there was no issue in getting our room - or if we wanted to leave our luggage. Breakfast was right up there as well - the staff again - super attentive and couldn't do enough for you.

Remains a delight
Remains a firm favourite, perfect location for travelling by train and getting around London. The facilities are great and the staff very friendly and organised, really can’t have any complaints. We stayed the week before Christmas so could ´hear’ the sounds of the neighbourhood and parties a little more than usual if that is a factor for you but I would not trade the location for that.

Nice room. No hot water. No refund.
No hot water on a Sunday morning when I needed to take a shower. Didn’t offer a refund but just a free breakfast. Also got the handicapped room. I would have preferred a regular one or been asked if I wanted a handicap room.

A great lovely old building and hotel with so many great spaces and rooms. The only disappointment was reception staff, first impressions count!! The pantry was also not as advertised.

Not ideal for business or couples
The hotel itself is beautiful, clean, and very well located next to the train station. However, the room was very small, too small for a couple with low ceilings. Whilst the description stated that it had a business center it did not. There was no room in the bedroom to work, and the lounge was not ideal as they had no proper space or tables. Not a suitable hotel for business people. They did had a coffee machine in the room which I love, but it didn’t work. They did not offer tea, and there was only two small milks so not enough for more than one drink. Strangely even though we were a couple they only had one biscuit seems a strange place to scrimp on. The soaps and shower gels etc were very good with a lovely smell. The bathroom had a fantastic shower. They offer beautiful bathrobes. I would recommend they look at the towels however as there wasn’t one I could use for my hair. The receptionists were young and inexperienced. They offered a basic level of service. Overall, for the price, I wouldn’t recommend this hotel, especially for business.
