Tube runs under hotel......
Very nice staff clean room The only thing there is a tube (subway) that runs under the hotel and my husband timed it and it was about every three minutes. During the day it didn't bother us because we were out but the tube ran til 12 at night. Also no elevator. It is a house made into a hotel. Very nice area laundry mat down the road which is handy when traveling.

Convenient for what we needed as we were partaking in the Marathon, was not one bit worth £169 though. Room was dirty, cold and noisy. Breakfast was so basic but it did for what we needed. Wouldn’t stay again though. Shame as the area and building is beautiful. It’s just not kept properly and looks cheap.

Comfortable & clean rooms, kind & helpful staff
It was a very clean and nice hotel. Located in a nice area and Very close to tube station. I also loved the garden as well. The staff was very kind and helpful. Our room was comfortable and clean. The bathroom looks renovated and very nice. The only thing is; our room was below the ground floor because we needed a room for 5 people, we could hear the underground trains but it wasn’t so bad because we were already very tired and fell asleep :) Overall it was a very good value for money.

The Hotel is in a very nice quiet location but very close to Tube & Bus routes. Room was clean and reasonably well equipped but getting dated. The one desk chair was very shabby and should be disposed of. Room was quiet at night and the bed very comfy but only one pillow per person for the two of us. We will definitely use this hotel again as it was overall good value.
