Superb location just a few minutes walk from the Tube Station and plenty of lovely places to eat. The bed was super comfortable with good quality linens. Really clean. The staff were exceptional, including the “greeters / front of house” workers who helped me get a taxi ASAP on the morning I left.

This property is a solid 3-star hotel, as expected, but the location is wonderful. It’s quiet and a bit tucked away but very close to many transit options. Front desk staff is wonderful, room staff less so. Our room was not made up one day, despite sign being up for most of the day until 11 pm, but we were given free late checkout in compensation, so fair enough.
