Location and staff
The air conditioning did not work and the room was too hot to sleep in
Very good location. Very comfortable rooms. Lovely decor. We loved the idea of rooms attached to the pub yet still incredibly quiet and intimate.
We chose the hotel for it's location close to the Oval Short walk. Pleasant staff and a well stocked bar and friendly atmosphere.
Nothing
Great area. Bedrooms upstairs have been really nicely restored.
Busy main road outside.
I had a great stay, the room was really comfortable, in a great location, and the staff were very helpful.
The WiFi was a bit dodgy.
Bed very comfortable, air con in room was good (especially in a heatwave!), good toiletries and decent fittings, quiet despite busy pub downstairs but lots of road noise
No breakfast available, lots of stairs to bedrooms. Blind in bathroom was broken and room is overlooked so had to hang a towel at the window to shower. Traffic noise from very early in morning despite closed windows was quite disruptive. Unable to get a table for meal in the evening as all tables booked for football but was able to eat at the bar. Quite expensive for what is provided.
Room was spotless and all the staff were great. Air conditioning was brilliant in the heat, room was lovely and cool.
Everything was great.
Room 2 ! We had a really comfortable room with a fantastic big bath . A/C was a lifesaver ! Staff were all very friendly and helpful. Good food and drink and the comedy night was an added bonus . My birthday Negroni was excellent too 😉
We couldn’t get WiFi at all in our room but that’s a minor complaint. The stairs might put some people off but we were warned in advance !
Clean, comfortable and well equipped room in a good location close to the underground @ bus stops. Helpful staff.
Staircase to access the room was quite steep.
Location is great and the neigbourhood is full of historic houses, like Charlie Chaplin lived almost next door. A little further away is the Imperial War Museum and Tibetan Peace Garden, which was open by the Dalai Lama himself in 1999.
Very poor wi-fi in the room. Basically it didn't work.
Ideally located - handy for Kennington tube - and lots to do nearby. Handy for the Oval. Friendly staff and very comfortable bed.
Aircon a little loud
Central yet nice and quiet neighborhood.
Nothing
The location and facilities were good
The hot water supply was a bit intermittent in the upstairs bedroom.
There was a pint of milk in the fridge- so much better than those silly little pots! The big bath was a treat and the travel toothbrush and toothpaste a useful addition.
Very late check in time
Staff was very friendly and helpful! Great food in the pub!
Very nice shower, bathroom, large bed. Nicely decorated room throughout. Clean sheets and towels. Located close to the event we were attending.
Overlooking a noisy road, without much soundproofing. Aircon was noisy, had to turn it off. Wasn't so obvious how "reception" works but finally figured it out.
Aircon, nice cheerful room in an old establishment
Poor beer selection, awful cocktails
Such a warm welcome! And I loved the room, lovely to be somewhere with a bit of personality.
Nothing, I loved it
War alles soweit in Ordnung. Personal sehr nett, zentrale Lage, überall Bushaltestellen und U Bahn Station in der Nähe. Direkt gegenüber Fahrrad Verleih. Das Zimmer war soweit ok. Wir haben uns wohl gefühlt. Ich glaub viel mehr kann man für den Preis mitten in London nicht erwarten.
Die Lage der Unterkunft ist sehr zentral. Das Zimmer war sehr sauber. Es gab einen Minikühlschrank und eine Espressomaschine.
Durch die Lage an einer Hauptverkehrskreuzung war es sehr laut. Das Haus ist überhaupt nicht isoliert, es war kalt im Zimmer.
Teniendo en cuenta los precios de Londres, la relación calidad-precio era muy buena. Muy cómodo y limpio para lo que suele haber en hoteles en Inglaterra. La situación no era la mas céntrica, pero en 20min andando estabas en el Big Ben y la Abadía de Westminster. Además, el hotel está anexo a un restaurante en el que por ser huéspedes, hacen un descuento del 30-40% en las comidas y cenas
Dejligt lyst og lækkert værelse med stor, behagelig seng, og en hel balsal af et badeværelse. Upåklagelig rengøring og skønt linned. Et plus var også nespresso på værelset. Ikke mulighed for morgenmad, men man er hurtigt i byen. Tæt på metro, bus etc. og beliggende ovenpå en hyggelig pub, hvor man også kan spise om aftenen. Vi bestilte mad en enkelt dag og det smagte dejligt. Gæster får rabat på mad.
Lidt forventelig støj fra gaden, mens vi intet hørte til pubben, trods stand up arrangementer flere aftener om ugen.
Stylish and lovely details such as the artwork and the tea bags and milk in the fridge.
You will need ear plugs. I could hear the extractor all night. Not a great sleep. The carpet although clean was a bit threadbare. A nice rug by the bed would help.
Nice themed rooms. Nice location
Room very small, struggled with space for luggage. Bathroom window didn't open, fan didn't work so steamed up.
Quiet room, comfortable bed.
Shower was in the room with no privacy. Lots of stairs to climb - no lift.
Location is very good, 5 min from Kennigton station, easy to travel to the centre Comfortable bed
The hotel states boutique…but it is not. It is clean but kind of ‘worn out’. Our room also hada shower in the room as there was not a separate room for a bathroom. Even if you are with your friends, this is strange.
Authentieke en gastvrije sfeer
Lovely, quiet room with a gorgeous bathroom and comfortable bed. Hector who showed me to the room was absolutely lovely and so helpful.
Great location, cozy room, helping staff, discount to the pub bellow the accomidation.
It was not 5 star, but I will definitely stay there again. It was fantastic.
Room and bathroom was lovely. very clean
Maybe something available for breakfast. Not the end of world though as there was pastry pop up over the road in the morning
Location was perfect. Tea and coffee facilities in the room. Comfortable bed.
It was clearly a relatively cheap and cheerful do-over, decoration wise. For example, the bathroom was huge and shower great, but the sink cupboards were old and fairly unusable.
great service by all the staff. very clean and good linens.
stairs can be a challenge when having luggage
Mysigt boende i ett väldigt trevligt område!
trafiken var ganska ljudlig, men på natten lugnade det ned sig vilket var bra!
Lage, Personal, Zimmergröße, Essen im Pub, wir würden das Hotel wieder buchen!
Die Heizung ließ sich nicht so richtig gut regulieren, nachts war es etwas zu warm.
Tout était impeccable. Seul le bruit de la route et des sirènes étaient désagréables.
No breakfast was the disapointment the price warranted it to many stained

Fantastic location, reasonably priced and the room was great. Fantastic place to base yourself in London, right by the tube line.
Good size rooms and comfortable beds
At least one of the rooms had a ceiling alarm that had a really bright light on it which shone into our eyes in bed. It was very disruptive.
The person who greeted me was exceptionally friendly and very attentive. The room had a bath which was a lovely surprise, and the bathroom was large. Cosy room with stylish decor and furnishings.
Lots of stairs up to the room.
Lovely décor, comfortable bed, lovely bathroom with shower, powerful and hot water, great customer service.
Ubicación y baño muy amplio
It wasn't cheap but its in an excellent location with very accessible public transport links. The room was very nice, clean and quiet. I would definitely stay here again.
No towels ?
The rooms are really tired and need some TLC.
Friendly and helpful staff Was comfortable and modern, excellent facilities and great food.
Decent sized rooms with excellent shower-rooms above a nice pub. Nice touches like real milk in the fridge and a coffee machine in the room, and reduced price dinners if you're staying there. And the food is consistently good!
Great location, friendly staff, fantastic food. Clean room, well appointed and in good condition. The pub and the 30% food discount was a real winner.
Room was smaller than anticipated, a/c was loud but very efficient, lighting was poor, TV was great but needs to be higher on the wall please to be able to watch from the bed, no place for suitcases to be opened so needs a shelf/table, as a walk up some assistance would be wonderful such as a butlers elevator or something.
1) Steep stairs, no lift in hotel, difficult to carry many/heavy luggage up and down the stairs, this can be a huge problem for guests on higher floors, we were on the 1st floor and the stairs were hectic. 2) we were not provided with WiFi password (not huge issue). 3) the surrounding area was very noisy at night, incessant ambulance and police sirens , difficult to sleep with the noise levels coming from main road.
Lovely little hotel, really quiet room and a comfortable bed. Food in the bar was delicious.
Loved it, would definitely stay again.
bed sheets smelt bad. noisy. insects.
Bed very comfortable.
Carpet a little worn and could do with a deep clean.
Gute lage. War mit dem öffentlichen Verkehr gut zu fuss zu erreichen.
Good location. Comfortable bed. Tea and coffee amenities were good. Room quite and peaceful even though located above a pub. Let us leave our bags at no extra charge, although was just left sitting behind a bar.
Was travelling with a friend, was not made aware anywhere prior to booking that the shower and sink were in the actual bedroom with only the toilet behind a closed door. This made getting washed and dressed a little uncomfortable, and had we known this would be the way the room or rooms are laid out, we would've changed our booking. Very unpleasant smell from side entry door to the very top of 3 flights or stairs outside our room, think this was beside being above a pub with an open kitchen. Poor lighting and dusty and just a little tired in general. Staff were ok,not rude, but like they never really knew answer to any question or any urgency when was telling them anything.
Die Lage. Nähe an der Underground. Vor der Tür eine Busverbindung. Der Pub unten im Haus. Lecker Essen,gute Getränke.
Mich hat es nicht gestört, aber vllt sollte man erwähnen, dass die Straße sehr belebt ist. Im Sommer mit offenem Fenster zu schlafen könnte für manchen ein Problem sein.
