Our room at the hotel was fantastic. We loved the decor and how spacious the room was. All the staff we met were very friendly and welcoming. We had dinner in the pub downstairs which was really nice and the breakfast had a great selection to choose from. We will definitely stay here again when visiting London.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Counting House! The room was clean and modern and the pub is gorgeous. We fell in love with the vintage charm of the building! Breakfast was delicious and something we looked forward to each morning. Staff were all very friendly and helpful. The elevator is TIGHT and a bit slow but you’re on vacation, so no rush or just take the stairs. Location is safe and very convenient to the sites and public transit (bus stop right outside). Highly recommend!
