10/10 Excellent

Comfortable, clean, and the staff were fantastic!
Jonathan, 4-night trip

8/10 Good

Staff were lovely, hotel very clean, rooms a bit dated. Have a very personal and friendly feel overall.
Sarah, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

A pleasant hotel located close to the metro, right on the edge of a culturally diverse neighborhood. The staff were friendly and welcoming. The furniture in the rooms is quite old, but the atmosphere overall was warm and comfortable.
Elena, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Nice, Clean
Mark, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Excellent place to stay in London. This boutique hotel is in a great location. We will definitely come back.
Ellen, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Recycling options would be nice.
Patricia, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I would suggest that they check the water temperature and alarms as part of the room preparation.
Sonya, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Excellent location (near the Marble Arch tube and bus station) and walkable to the Oxford street shopping, Maryleborne and much more. Some of the fixtures and furniture could do with some updating or repair. Decent value and comparable to other hotels in the neighborhood. Lots of cafe, coffee, and bakery options that offer better choice and value than the in-house breakfast. AC was appreciated. Towels were changed everyday, though we did not request this. WiFi and streaming services on the TV were a bit hit or miss. Was asked at check-in, if I was willing to cancel the Expedia booking and pay the hotel directly - the representative behind the counter only stopped pushing this after I showed her in the app that the cancellation window had already passed, etc.

10/10 Excellent

Clean and great location for the price
Richard, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Location is very convenient. I'd visited the Sumner in the past before the pandemic. The room I was given was adequate, with a decent shower, small fridge and acceptable bed. The room furniture, however, was not in keeping with what I'd previously known; the desk chair in particular was soiled and over-used, the clothes bureau did not close, and the chaise had a tattered blanket draped over it. If you don't need to spend much time in the room, all that could be overlooked, but it was a different feel than I'd previously experienced.
Richard, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Great location; very good breakfast; helpful staff; larger than typical/expected room - given the central location.
Carl, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Loved the location, close to the Underground/Tube.
Christine, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I was pleasantly surprised at how cute this little boutique hotel was. I would definitely stay here again. Spacious room, Very comfortable, private bathroom, clean and quiet as long as the windows were closed. We opened them for a bit to get some fresh cooler air as we could not adjust the air conditioning and with them open there is quite a lot of street noise. Also seems like a safe neighborhood, but my husband did have his phone ripped from his hands just a block away so be vigilant.
Rachelle, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Excellent stay and close to the pub
Robert, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Excellent location and extremely friendly and helpful staff.
william, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This is a very nice property. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room spacious and comfortable. The location was very convenient with nearby public transport, shopping, restaurants and parks. There is a lift on site, but also a couple of stairs. They also allowed us to store our luggage as we arrived early in the morning. My only issue was with the shower. You cannot adjust the temperature or turn the water off when your hands are wet and the water is scalding hot. Had to use a face washer to grip and turn the taps. For safety the hot water temperature needs to be reduced. I would stay here again.
Louise, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Convenient stopover hotel.

Nice place at a good price for central London. Comfortable bed, within a rather dated room - but nothing to adversely affect the stay.
Steve, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Lovely stay

Beautiful small hotel with very friendly and helpful staff. It felt more like a large house than a hotel. Located in an upscale part of the city. We had a twin bed room that offered plenty of space. Beds and pillows weren't as comfortable as I'd hoped but were fine and we slept well. Bathroom was clean but floor tile could use some work. Air worked well to keep us cool. The only real downside was the odd way the elevators were built to drop you at the half floors, so no matter where you landed you had to go either up or down a half flight of stairs to get to your room (a pain when dealing with luggage or if you have mobility issues). Overall we really liked our stay and would stay here again in the future.

Great hotel & Ideal location, staff very friendly

8/10 Good

very nice small hotel great loaction

4/10 Poor

Misleading. Not a 4-star hotel.

The beds were comfortable, but the room is in great need of updates and more privacy. Multiple tiles in the bathroom were cracked, carpet is worn, chair provided at the desk dipped so much in the middle it was like sitting on a hole in the chair. The tv did not work. The door jam was not complete and there was space someone could look through into the room if they chose to. I would not stay there again.
