7.6/10 Good! (521 reviews)
After all those negative feedbacks I was worried but I have to say the hotel surprised me otherwise. My kids felt extremely comfortable and actually enjoyed it much better then their previous more modern hotel stay in London.
They absolutely loved the kind and very helpful receptionist , they felt immediately at home and really enjoyed the few days they spend in this old world charming place.
Additionally it is in a perfect location every sight in close walking distance.
Yes it is old but that adds to it's charm and it shows but it is clean and very comfortable.
Thank you for being part of making my daughter and her friends trip a success!
