We travel to London frequently and were excited to stay in the Farringdon area. The reviews and photos for the Clerk and Well were exceptional. The experience was something different. The location is great and the pub is a great place for a pint and a bite to eat. However the room was very small and sparce with no place to put luggage and the bathroom was extemely small, no bigger than a closet. The shower clogged and was never properly fixed so we had to limit our shower time to minutes in order to avoid overflowing. We would not stay here again and would not recommend.

My husband and I stayed here for 3 days during our stay in London. Loved the convenient location and having the pub was wonderful. Room was very nice. Just be aware that you need to climb stairs to the rooms and the step up to the bathtub was pretty high. Other than that, was excellent, and the staff exceptional!

Everything was just so perfect! Would definitely recommend and public transport was everywhere so it is easy to get around! Rooms were amazing and staff was 5 stars. Definitely staying here again when I come to England again.

Very clean and big room (we had the Deluxe Double room), Free bottled water every day was a nice touch. Shower had good water pressure. Had some concerns about being above the pub, but even when it was open until 11, the noise stopped pretty much immediately every night. Great location for food and transportation (also late night food!). Spent 4 nights here and would definitely return again. Note: as they disclose, there is no lift. Also the bath tubs are quite high and could pose difficulties for some.

Thank You - A Great Stay

This is a lovely place in a convenient part of town. The room was immaculate and the pub served great food and drinks (with a nice discount for those who stay there). The pub staff were super friendly and helpful and a shout-out to Tina for a smooth check in and awesome hospitality. This is a gem of a place!
