In a neighbourhood of grand stuccoed terraces and garden squares, the third of Justin and Charlotte Salisbury’s cool, quirky hotels is a popular drop-in and showcase for modern art, with all-day restaurant, pavement tables and basement cocktail bar. Bedrooms, over three upper floors, are more boutique, less quirky than at some of their four other outposts, with vintage furniture, upcycled and repurposed fittings, Bakelite dial phone, and maybe a bare brick wall. They range from ‘small’ (but by no means poky), with rainfall shower, to the pièce de resistance, the elegant Grand Suite, with parquet flooring, ornate plasterwork, modern super-king four-poster, seating area, open-plan bathroom with freestanding bath and rainfall shower. The third-floor Loft has comfy seating, an open-plan bathroom with 1930s French-style bathtub and walk-in shower. All have Tunnock’s caramel wafers. a Roberts radio, Bramley toiletries. There is a short menu of dishes such as quinoa salad, cheeseburger, chalk stream trout. On the wall, a spoof Penguin cover by Harland Miller reads ‘Love Saves the Day’ – but if you’re more into Old Masters, Tate Britain is just down the road.
