Staff was extemely friendly and the complimentary breakfast was amazing. Dinner at the Inn was also incredible, we truly enjoyed everything about our stay. Only issue is limited parking, with guest sharing a very small paid parking space with day visitors it makes it difficult to find parking when you return from a day trip.

Our stay here was very nice. We stayed for a night, plus 2 more as our flight was cancelled. The staff and service was excellent! They took great care of us, and having a fun pub with good food right below was just what we needed.

We stayed at the Grafton for a full week and it was great! Spacious room, comfortable bed and quiet. We were at the front of the building so there was a little noise Friday and Saturday nights from the surrounding bars and restaurants but nothing unexpected for a large city

Has charm, but has its problems

The Good: room was quite nice and well equipped, pub downstairs had good food and drinks, very gracious of them to let us have a very early (9am) check-in without pay. Night porter was kind (see below). The place has lots of charm. The Bad: We stayed for 3 nights, and didn't have our room cleaned even once. On the first day, a few hours after chekcing in, a service lady tried to open the door while we were in it, probably to clean (a clean room). Luckily we dobule locked. The other days nobody bothered to go in and clean. Because reception is occupied mainly during the pub working hours (while we were mostly out exploring), we also didn't have anyone to complain to in the morning. Worst part was that by the third day we didn't have any body-wash or shampoo left. We had to call the night porter to get some for us. He did, after about 20 mins, which was nice of him, but clearly the whole situation was upsetting. Also, our room was on the 4th floor (no lift), but we didn't mind that too much. Yet, we couldn't get the safe to work and hated to get someone up 4 floors to check it... In total, probably the lack of desk service in the mornings or late evenings is problematic, to say the least. Is something goes wrong, it's not easy to get it sorted.

We loved our time here! The limited number of rooms and the pub downstairs gave this stay so much charm. The room itself was large and felt updated while keeping enough of the original feel. It was about a 2 minute walk to Warren St tube station (can't really beat that too much). It's true, the stairs do have a narrow walk way (as listed and to be expected) but something to keep in mind if you are unable to carry luggage up multiple flights as there is no lift. Highly recommend!

This is a wonderful spot in a very central part of London ... the rooms are so quiet in spite of a pub and roof terrace, which speaks to some incredible sound proofing. The Asian food in pub looked great but didn't have time to try. Lovely
