This is NOT a three-star hotel. It’s not even a hotel! It’s got a few rooms upstairs from a mediocre pub. I cannot believe so many people have raved about this place. What is the appeal? I was fooled into thinking I’d be staying in a charming inn, and instead it was a three-story walk-up to a tiny, badly-lit room with worn out carpeting. People said it was conveniently located, and instead it was in an unappealing, semi-suburban neighborhood with poorly lit streets well outside the main city — think Queens instead of Manhattan. The wifi didn’t work, the air conditioning didn’t work, and one of the faucets didn’t work. And it was NOT cheap - almost $200 a night, all told! We stayed there before heading to the Cotswolds for three days, and decided not to return on the fourth day as planned. I tried to cancel our reservation three full days in advance — for a Thursday night, not a weekend — and was told they have a “no cancellation policy.” I understand why, because once you see what this place really is, you’ll want to cancel the rest of your stay, too. Do not be fooled by the reviews.

Great location, smooth check in and comfortable room. Very clean, big, stylish bathroom with roll top bath and separate walk in shower. Decent breakfast available at the weekend in the pub downstairs. Friendly staff, great value, a bit of a hidden gem.

The room was ok but no main light in the room just lamps one of the plugging point was loose from the wall plus the blind didn't go full down so couldn't block the morning light the bath room was amazing with the options of a bath or a separate shower the bed was comfy but the window did nothing to help block the traffic noise which means i really didn't have a gd sleep at all

Great value

I just needed to stay for 1 night near to the river and the Tommyfield was both convenient, and good value. Checkin was good, the room was spacious and quiet (except for someone hoovering before 7am), clean and comfortable. The pub looked nice but I didn’t get the opportunity to try it.

Hotel was really clean and room is spacious and a really nice bathroom. Check in was easy but they do like you to check in by 10.30pm which wasn't ideal as we weren't local and we also had some issues with the lock on our door but overall, good stay and reasonably priced for London

We only stayed for one night but it was a wonderful stay, walking distance for Kennington tube station. Felt very secure with multiple locks to the various hotel levels. The only negatives i would say is small issues with wear and tear with the room just a little bit here and there would help. We also enjoyed a lovely breakfast in the pub in the morning. Next time we pop down to London we are definitely planning another stay here

Not great

Check in was a bit strange and awkward as though we were intruding. As we arrived at 11am, after an overnight flight from the US, the manager could clearly see that we were exhausted and instead of offering to try to expedite, we were sent us to a coffee shop down street to wait for our room. Ironically, the restaurant/hotel lobby had no coffee to offer?!?! We returned at 1:30pm only to be ignored by the manager (no formal introduction so I’m not aware of her name, only to continue our wait in a very cold and empty restaurant. There was a kind gentleman that made a spirited coffee that did help a bit. Our room reservation was for a king bed and there were 2 twins. When asked for a king, the hotel attendant simply said to push them together. The room was actually clean but is in need of updating possibly adding a comfortable chair in lieu of the red metal one. Beds were comfortable which is why I’ve given the a 3 or would’ve been a 2. The area at night is desolate and feels a bit unsafe. We would not rebook.
