great little hotel. Lovely rooms and friendly staff.
Townhouse is beautiful and the staff are really friendly. The room was quite cold though and we couldn't get the heating to work on our first night. TV in rooms are very dated and we couldn't cast to them or stream anything thst was a bit disappointing.

The Zetter was wonderful! The staff were extremely attentive. The rooms are large for London (sitting area and very large bathroom). The lobby/lounge area was amazing, especially the fireplace. The neighborhood was safe and clean and the Farringdon underground station is a five minute walk. The food at the Zetter is first-rate and there are several good restaurants in the neighborhood. We will definitely stay again.
The staff are always incredibly friendly and helpful. Its always a delight to stay at the Zetter house,its unique firenly atmosphere and comfortable decor
Lovely homely hotel in a great location for West End and City. And only 5 mins walk to trains for airport. This property felt like a home from home and is a great place to escape the hustle and bustle of the city.
Wonderful neighborhood, with easy access to the tube. Really central location so it was very easy to get around.
The room was comfortable and cozy, and the hotel itself was quirky and cute. Friendly staff, and the breakfast was amazing. Worth the money to include it in your stay! Thank you!
This is an excellent hotel in a perfect location 10 min walk from Farringdon. Its further enhanced by the superb staff whose service is second to none. The breakfast is of a very high quality. Its located 2 min walk from the incredible St John's Priory
