Highly recommend The Other House. Beautiful hotel in a perfect location. Our room was beautiful - a little squishy, but great. The room had a kitchenette which took quite a bit of space, and we didn’t use it. It would be great if you feel like preparing some meals yourself, but we were keen to enjoy the restaurants and pubs in the city. The breakfast was excellent and well worth adding as an inclusion with your stay. The location is unbeatable with walking access to some of the main sights in London. It’s a beautiful neighbourhood and we felt safe and comfortable instantly. I hope we’ll be able to stay again one day soon.

Lovely property in a great location. We stayed in one of the vaults flats with our kids. They loved the bed in the vault. The firedoor to outside wasn’t brilliantly sound proofed to the outdoor noise, but the kids still slept well. The kitchen is very clean and well appointed for its size. Pool is lovely and kept the kids happy between 3-4.30 when it is open for kids.

The other house was a great base for us on our London leg of our journey. Loved all the uniqueness of this place. The pool, sauna and steam rooms were a great way to escape the bustle of London. The staff were super attentive and friendly. Only comment for consideration was that our room felt a tad cramped, so perhaps a little less furniture.

The hotel was a cute boutique style. Weird set up, but nice. The only complaint is they have no phone number to call anyone for a need or question! They message through WhatsApp and I found it useless. Answering a question 8 hours later and not once getting any solution. They also do not have any sort of room service you can call and order. For a nicer hotel, this was ridiculous to me. Final note; for some reason they have a metal “decorative” room divider right in the middle of the room. Only making the room feel much smaller and not allowing you to watch the television from bed.
