“This hotel, nestled in a charming Clerkenwell square, seems to promise a distinctive stay with its Georgian townhouse setting. The cocktail lounge and bespoke event spaces signal a commitment to personalized experiences. However, the reviews mentioning hygiene concerns and disappointing food give me pause.”
