The Main House Review

A stay in this delightfully welcoming B&B feels more like sleeping over at a friend's house than in a hotel—albeit a particularly wealthy and well-connected friend. Each guest suite is spread across one floor of this converted Victorian townhouse. Guest rooms are spacious and uncluttered, with clean white linens, polished wood floors, modern furniture, and Asian art. There's a little urban terrace, which is a lovely spot for retreating with a glass of wine or the morning paper. Guests enjoy special rates at a local gym, and get a discount for breakfast at the trendy Tom's Deli nearby (owned by Tom Conran).

    The Main House Review

    Just stayed in this charming little hotel,only one block from the Portobello Road market, few minute walk to the tube (Notting Hill Gate) surrounded by cute cafes, pubs, bistros and restaurants, yet in a very quiet and safe area. Our room and bathroom were huge!The owners are very helpful with all kinds of information about what and when to see in London, how to get there and where to have a memorable meal.I am sure we will stay there again!

    a home away

    This place is an absolute gem and Caroline, your hostess, is very helpful with local restaurants, etc. Very large rooms. Great neighborhood. Tube nearby. It's actually an upscale B & B with wonderful atmosphere. This is for the person who doesn't like large, functional hotels and wants a slice of a real neighborhood.
