Lovely breakfast, nice staff, great location near to Victoria. Nice room. Only slight downside was that there has been no attempt to soundproof the accommodation meaning that my relaxing early night didn’t happen as some guests were banging and slamming around very late into the night. I’d suggest ear plugs and had a known I would have brought some and had a perfect stay.

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.

The staff was so kind and friendly, the room and bathroom (Wren) were spacious, comfortable, clean and quiet and looked recently renovated. Plenty of power sockets, very comfortable bed, a coffee machine, safe, comfortable seating and very tastefully decorated, as was all the hotel. Also excellent breakfast, generous and freshly prepared to order. The staff kindly allowed me to drop off my suitcase before check in and it was taken up to my room ready for when I arrived. I had such a great stay and wish I could have stayed longer. Will definitely stay again.
