"Quirky guesthouse that manages to be both homely – thanks to some lovely period furniture – and chic; the rooms are huge."

"Bedrooms are now fresh and uncluttered and the atmosphere less starchy. The basement restaurant offers a modern menu, with dishes that are original in look and elaborate in construction."

"Sitting in the cozy bar at Dukes, with barman Alessandro mixing a martini while the gas lamps splutter into life in the courtyard outside, is one of the quintessential London experiences."
