The hotel was perfect, exactly as described and in a lovely quiet but accessible location. The room we stayed in had 3 separated sleeping spaces so was brilliant for a family of 4 with two teenagers. The staff were also amazing, very helpful and accommodating. Pool and Sauna area also very nice. It was pricey, but it was value for money. Would highly recommend.

Staff very polite and friendly. The bed was very comfortable and the room was clean. The kitchenette was convenient and a great addition. However, the T.V. was completely misplaced—it faced the wall, making it impossible to watch, so I never used it. The hotel was quiet, and it’s within walking distance of Cromwell Hospital, which was very helpful.

Highly recommend The Other House. Beautiful hotel in a perfect location. Our room was beautiful - a little squishy, but great. The room had a kitchenette which took quite a bit of space, and we didn’t use it. It would be great if you feel like preparing some meals yourself, but we were keen to enjoy the restaurants and pubs in the city. The breakfast was excellent and well worth adding as an inclusion with your stay. The location is unbeatable with walking access to some of the main sights in London. It’s a beautiful neighbourhood and we felt safe and comfortable instantly. I hope we’ll be able to stay again one day soon.

Lovely property in a great location. We stayed in one of the vaults flats with our kids. They loved the bed in the vault. The firedoor to outside wasn’t brilliantly sound proofed to the outdoor noise, but the kids still slept well. The kitchen is very clean and well appointed for its size. Pool is lovely and kept the kids happy between 3-4.30 when it is open for kids.
