Portobello Gold Review
This no-frills B&B, in the heart of the Portobello Road antiques area above the pub and restaurant of the same name, offers comfortable accommodations, in the tiny doubles where beds take up almost the entire room. The best option is the split-level apartment (£180; sleeps six) with roof terrace, small kitchen, and soothing aquarium. The casual restaurant serves international food and has a great wine list, all at reasonable prices.
