We stayed one night at the Exibitionist. Loved the hotel location! The room was nicely appointed, the bathroom modern and very clean. The lobby was nice and although I didn't eat there, other visitors were saying they enjoyed their dinner. The only observation is the room (top floor) was warm, even though it was only 60 outside. The AC did not work in the room, the fan would come on and then immediately cut off. They did provide a fan, but it was old and not working well. I tried opening the windows but there was no breeze to speak of. So I didn't sleep as well as I'd hoped at the start of a long trip.

The room was tiny, barely space to walk around the bed. Elevator was just large enough for two people, and so slow that most people walked even though our room was on the 4th floor. No full length mirrors to check how you look, only small round ones placed so high a short person couldn't see their face. Toilet didn't flush fully without several tries. Threshold was loose, but they did send someone to fix it promptly. Breakfast was lovely. Staff were pleasant and attentive. Art was fun.

Artist Theme Hotel; VERY well maintained & staff

An interested "quirky" and extremely well maintained hotel in London. Theme is Exhibitionist Artist style - very creative and enjoyable place to stay. Front Staff were WONDERFUL - very helpful and accommodating (i had asked for ice a few times and always helpful). I HIGHLY recommend this hotel if you are looking for something different - but well maintained and profesionally run.
