Overall this was a nice boutique hotel. The rooms have a lot of character and a vintage feel, in a cool way. The room was clean, spacious, and had all the amenities you could need. In a great area of London, lots of shops, pubs, restaurants, and public transit. The reason I give 4 stars is bc the check-in process is not quite 4star and the bathroom sink didn’t drain well.

The two rooms that we booked were so cute. The suite room had a couch and an outside patio which was very nice to have as we traveled with family. I loved that the bathroom as the tub had a claw tub and the ground was heated. It is a very charming and rustic. I would definitely go back.

Delightful

This is a cute boutique hotel. It's part of the pub and takes you back in time to a different era. Our room was a charming suite with a copper bath tub, a skylight in the living room, and our own private patio with a living room setup. Rooms were romantic and comfy. We'll definitely return. Note, there are no elevators in this hotel. We were on the second floor so we only had to haul our luggage up one flight but that could've been more burdensome if we had to walk up another flight.

Fabulous!

We wanted somewhere near the Barbican hall 10 mins walk) We arrived to a packed pub & underwhelming checkin. But from there it was fabulous! Room lovely. Spotlessly clean, great decor & so comfortable. Aircon a bonus at my age lol. Wonky toilet seat part of 'quirky' ;) We ate in the pub, staff were so lovely & the food spot on. We sat in a little booth, it was cute. Wine good & all round great buzzing atmosphere. The walk to our concert was 10 mins. Coming back the pub was pretty much closed but the guys got us drinks to take up. Our room was so quiet... We didn't go for breakfast but can only imagine it wld be lovely. A really good option in the City & one we will definitely do again. Of course you can complain abt things however nothing spoilt our enjoyment of this stay! (Be mindful if you have mobility issues this is an old building, narrow stairs over 3 floors)

Arriving is a little dodgy - we got there around noon, and had plans to meet friends. They wouldn't check us in, and told us if we got back after 11PM (when the pub closes) we would be unable to check in. They did hold our bags. This made us have to burn some time until 3PM when they could check us in, so we would have a key to re-enter later. Not super convenient. The room was 4 flights up, no lift, no offer to help with luggage, so if you are not pretty fit, look elsewhere. The stair was really narrow and uneven, with grimy carpets. The room itself at least had good air conditioning. The bed was very, very soft, not ideal. Not a large room, and the desk was completely covered with the minibar snacks, etc... so not a great place if you have any work to do. The bathroom was large enough, but not level, and the shower had a broken handle and water leaked out of the corner of the enclosure all over the floor. The area is good for transportation - right by Barbican Victoria line and Ferringdon Station for easy connection to Heathrow and Luton and elsewhere. Probably wouldn't stay again, especially at the rate we paid.

Fabulous hotel, truly upholds the boutique chic style with impeccable attention to design and room amenities. Our greeting was 1st class and loved the atmosphere. Dined in pub, outstanding food, quality and attention to detail on serving presentation too. Definitely will be a regular. Thank you all. Lotty

The system to check-in was down for hours resulting in delayed check-in. There is no proper hotel desk for check-in, You have to to go the bar counter which is overcrowded and the staff at the bar is not even interested to listen.

Old fashioned property with modern facilities. Carpet could have been cleaner and the sofa had stains on it. Great location. Friendly helpful staff. I liked the place. I did break my toe on the bed leg but that was my fault not the hotels.
