Beautiful hotel in one of the best neighbourhoods in London. The Other House is my new home base in London - already looking forward to my next stay. Gorgeously appointed room with fastidious housekeeping, and a very warm check-in experience at reception. Bang for buck, one of the best hotels in the city.

Quirky awesome hotel. Lots of little rooms to have a drink, pool, gym, sauna, free laundry. The decor is amazing! Nothing like you see in most hotels. Close to station that covers multiple lines, supermarket, and heaps of pubs. Surrounded by the beautiful neighbourhood of South Kensington. Would definitely stay here again.
