Very nice

Nothing unexpected. Just know it’s a Pub below and there is street noise. I brought a fan. Bedding comfortable. They do room cleaning daily. Very clean. We had an issue with sink not draining and they fixed it right away after we hung the “please service this room” tag. There is a very small fridge. Refillable water bottles. Small pod Nespresso. A tea kettle and variety of tea bags and milk and sugar packs. There is nice shampoo, conditioner, body wash and lotion. They do not have wash cloths “face cloths” and do not know what they are. There is a Sainsbury’s grocery store very close you can get anything you need. The food in the pub is excellent and you get a discount with room key. Close to train for Underground and International rail service. Overall very nice and I would definitely stay again!!

Love the vibe of this hotel. Staff, pub and club are trendy and fun. Comedy show was fun, but club was noisy on weekends until 2:00 am. Kind of a quirky place but like it overall.

Decent little stay

Good location, decent food in the pub. 2 second walk to Balham station with direct trains to Victoria and Clapham as well as the tube. Only downside was its a bit noisy on a weekend as they have a literal nightclub and pub below but wasn’t bad enough to not sleep.

Character and warmth

The hotel is in a lovely location and has a lot of character, close by the tube. The room is excellent and comfy bed, lovely decor. Only let down and the manager on shift was at times, very unhelpful and I myself felt, quite rude. Apart from that, excellent place to stay

This hotel is over a very tired and noisy pub. Rooms were clean, well apportioned. Thankfully we didn’t spend a lot of time at the property as we were walking a charity marathon overnight but were forewarned about live music and there were ear plugs on the bedside table. £149 and no breakfast - very expensive - the property smells of beer, fried foods and bleach.

Amazing property, really nice manager and all the bar staff were so helpful- I asked for a special request to have the towels folded and she really outdid herself! The room was absolutely gorgeous and we loved every minute, the bar food downstairs was also fantastic. Nothing but positivity and really made our 3rd anniversary worth it <33
