    Bathroom is a tad small but doable. No ice machine, microwave, or a little refrigerator. That was pretty inconvenient. The lift is restricted by weight; 150kg is the max. We used it once or twice until we came back from touring and the lift was broken….. we were on the 4th floor so we had to take the stairs. Luckily this happened on our last day.

    The property is definitely a little old but the cleanliness and comfort compensates! The property was really close to the tube station, local stores, restaurants, and more. We really got the feeling of how residents in London truly live as this hotel is near other residential areas. Staff were incredibly helpful as they always fulfilled our requests. Property didnt have A/C but London is such a chilly city. With the fans that they provided and opening the windows, we were all set. Such a cute little neighborhood and for the price I say it is worth it.

    Our room had a very strange layout with a small corridor with steps that led up to a landing then down into a very big and spacious bathroom with basic amenities. One of the issues of converting older properties I guess.

    Perfect location as our son was auditioning locally. Friendly staff and interesting building made it a good experience.

    The room smelled of smoke upon arrival, I kept the windows open throughout my stay to offset this. The double bed was two twins pushed together and would have benefitted from a mattress topper to avoid the inevitable crack in the middle!

    The location was absolutely great and enabled me to easily pop out to the theatre! The room and hotel were very nicely furnished, and the room was very generously sized and comfortable to work in.

    The lift was really cool but a little scary with only a 2 person 150kg weight limit and if there was another way to get upstairs it wasn’t clearly directed so made us a little nervous since we would have exceeded it with bags and have to have 2 trips up/down.

    Loved the antique style decor, everything was clean, the double room was a good size and the bed was large and extremely comfortable. Check in and check out was also very quick and easy and the the staff were all lovely.

    View from the room wasn't great but at least we could see trees. Very creaky floorboards in our room.

    A decent breakfast on offer and the hotel is only a short walk to the nearest tube station and bus routes. Room was a decent size.

    The housekeeper opened the door twice without knocking before check-out time. She was rude and asked me when we were leaving. Maybe she was in a rush to do her job, but it was two hours before check-out time and then again one hour before. She needs to learn how to be polite and not disrespect or disturb the guests.

    Close to the subway, the hotel needs refurbishment, and the breakfast is not good enough. The floor is noisy, and the bathrooms need renovation. The king bed consists of two mattresses put together.

    As it was a suite... there was no door between the lounge and bedroom, would have be useful when one trying to rest and the other watching Tv in the lounge.

    The temperature in the room was quite cold and turning up the heater did not make a difference unfortunately.

    We got upgraded to a larger room, which was very nice, we had a lot of space. We especially loved the extremely comfortable, large bed and the delicious breakfast. The location is superb with supermarkets, restaurants, the tube station just minutes away.

    One staff member with scarf round her head at breakfast ignored me - didnt ask about breakfast or anything, but she had time to clean down tables! Fresh fruit seemed to dimish towards end of week - better have breakfast only at the start of the week!!

    The room requested was provided. Attentive staff and breakfasts - hot breakfasts were better than previous stays.. Good location for my business requirements

    As this is an old hotel the soundproofing is very poor. Our first night there we could not sleep as we could hear the person above us walking around the room. This would have ruined our stay had it happened every night. The double beds are also quite small for a hotel nowadays.

    This hotel is in a great location, the location is probably the best thing about this hotel and why we would consider staying again. Swiss Cottage underground station is a three minute walk from the front door. Quiet area of London. Charming old style decor - the room was very clean.
