Good Hotel Guide Review
In turns style-conscious and spellbinding, this modern Pimlico hotel holds surprises for wizards and Muggles alike. Bright and contemporary accommodation in varying sizes – from small single rooms to spacious family apartments – is spread out between the main, Grade II listed building and two town houses nearby. Harry Potter fans of all ages might prefer wizard-themed basement ‘chambers’ in the main house: accessed via a hidden door in a bookcase, they reveal (faux) stained-glass windows, velvet drapes, trunks and tapestries. A café/bar serves breakfast, drinks, snacks, sandwiches and an enchanting afternoon tea. Stairs are steep; cheerful staff will help with luggage. (Underground: Victoria, Pimlico)
