Location map In our opinion:This hotel has proved extremely popular due to its famous history. Clients should bear in mind that this is not a purpose built hotel and every bedroom is different in size and layout, some rooms could be interpreted as small, but then this is one of the characteristics of a town house hotel. Hotel-Assist considers this to be a professionaly run hotel which offers clean quality accommodation in a desirable and reasonably quiet location. We do not agree it is to be perceived as a 4 star venue but is a very good 3 plus star.
