Staff were superb! Attentive and accommodating. Bed very comfortable which was a bonus after a long day out and about. Great location close to transportation and sights. Room is small but very comfortable. Not a concern as spent most time out exploring! Great price too. Lots of dining options within walking distance. Highly recommend.

SAMUEL, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Excellent location for walking or trains. It’s nothing fancy, a rather small room, and a little quirky because it’s in an old townhouse, but clean, very amiable staff, and affordable! We would stay again.
Nancy, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

It‘s a very old victorian building, therefore you will hear walking and talking, or when others shower. However the area is perfect if you want to explore the city, and on the "quiet" side (bring oropax or noice cancelling earphones) . London is very walkable and connected through the tube. The excellent staff and comfort of the Hotel make up for it‘s imperfections. I really enjoyed my stay.
Luisa, 6-night trip

8/10 Good

If you’re looking for an economical place to stay (especially for one person) this place is great. Safe area, loads of character, walkable to everything Westminster, it was cute and clean (the bedding and pillows were great, made of cotton not gross polyester!). It was perfect.
kimberly, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I had seen some complaints about this hotel beforehand calling the street-facing rooms noisy and the rooms themselves way too cramped. I can say we didn't have either of these issues, and instead had quite a nice time at the Blades Hotel! The room we had was definitely on the smaller side per person, but we were able to fit four people into three beds without any issues. We also didn't notice any noise or lose any sleep despite being in a room with a large window facing the road. Besides that, the Pimlico area was lovely and we enjoyed the many local restaurants and parks. And the staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Overall, a nice hotel, great if you would like a straightforward place to stay in a nice neighborhood while still having easy access to major London attractions.
David, 3-night trip

Friendly hosts, close enought to Victoria station but far away enough in an area which is quiet at night.
