I booked this hotel for my mum and sister because it looked different. I thought being an independant hotel the service would be better than a chain - more personal. We arrived at the hotel in the evening; I had travelled down from Scotland and I was going to a friend's birthday party that night. THERE WAS NO HOT WATER... more

I booked the hotel as a surprise for my boyfriends birthday, wanting something quirky and different. Not being a seasoned hotel booker I booked before checking the reviews. I'm glad I did though because if I'd read the reviews first I wouldn't have chosen there and I'm so glad we stayed there! Arriving there was as quirky and lovely as... more

My hubby and I stayed here for one night for our 1st Wedding Anniversary. We wanted someting different and quirky. We weren't dissapointed on that front bu there are areas of concern here. The hotel staff were helpful when we arrived early and allowed us to park our car and head into London for a spot of sightseeing. We were... more

Booked this hotel for a few nights. On arrival were given the "Flower Power" room- it had more in common with the storage yard of Steptoe & Son than anything else... as a matter of fact I'm convinced that's where they got the furniture. Requested our money back and after an unpleasant and threatening encounter, eventually got the money back.... more

I was drawn to this hotel by its location (close to the railway station) and apart from that my expectations were not met. I was also drawn by the electic photos on the hotelclub.net website; I'm afraid reality was a let down. It claims to be funky and individualistic. Unfortunately, it was just tatty - interior design and furnishings from... more

This is not a white on white hotel. I think one of the major problems that people have is the shock of a truly creative place. I've stayed here twice and each time the desk person has been funny, helpful, and courteous. They let me keep my bags there for a couple days when I wasn't a guest. Breakfast is... more

This is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. Our room was very very small and very dingy (two of the eight extremely low wattage bulbs were not working). We found a condom and wrapper on the canopy over the bed. The tiny bathroom (the only one in the whole hotel with a bath) was clean but needed to... more

I have never written a negative hotel review but this particular "hotel" has given me new inspiration. The photographs of this place looked cool and eclectic, but when we arrived it was just broken down and nasty. Management , and I use the term loosely , was extremely hostile. When rolling our luggage outside along the sidewalk, one of their... more

I was initially put off by all the bad reviews of this hotel, but seriously, this hotel is not for someone who just wants a bog standard hotel room with no personality. It is not for business people or older people (due to the fact that there is no elevator) but it's definitely one for the hip, young crowd. My... more
