Number Sixteen Review

Guest rooms at this lovely luxury guesthouse just around the corner from the Victoria & Albert Museum look like they come from the pages of an interior design magazine—chic yet homey, with beautiful furniture and heavy fabrics, offset by nice little touches like piles of antiquarian books and flat-screen TVs set into the wall; bathrooms are clad in dark marble and polished oak. The staff is friendly, so lingering in the drawing rooms is a pleasure, and drinks are served in the leafy garden in summer.
