Rough Guide
"A fixture on Clerkenwell’s laidback hipster scene. Rooms are simple but bold, with colourful panache and lots of eco touches."
Michelin Guide
"A trendy and discreet converted 19C warehouse with well-equipped bedrooms that come with pleasant touches, such as Penguin paperbacks."
Frommer's

"The Royal Horseguards Hotel Review: Between Whitehall and the River Thames, this stately building... still retains a private feel with a discreet rear entrance."
