Outstanding experience!!

This hotel is delightful and is in a terrific location, only a half mile from Victoria Station with wonderful dining options nearby. The “king” bed is really a queen, and the bathroom was very narrow. I was fine, but my larger traveling companions found it challenging. Breakfast is absolutely amazing and the staff is exceptional. Be sure to stay here if you can!

Excellent customer service from the staff. The breakfast was excellent with lots of choices. Location is perfect for transport, dining etc The only let down was the shower in my room was not clean and housekeeping did not give me a clean cup or replenish the tea tray. Overall I would stay there again.

What a great place to stay! So glad I found it. Smaller place with lovely rooms and helpful staff. Enjoyed the breakfast too. I walked all over London from here. And some lovely places to catch a bite nearby as well. I'd be happy to stay there again.

I can’t say enough good things about this wonderful hotel. It has every amenity and a top-notch breakfast (get the full grid!), and it’s family owned and operated, so there’s very much a personal touch. Conveniently located near Victoria, but also in a quiet little part of Pimlico. Highly recommended!
