Beautiful hotel in a great location with lovely staff
Pros:

The neighborhood is great, the Underground is right next door, the hotel is very beautiful with traditional English charm, the room was spacious and clean, and the staff were very pleasant.

Cons:

The wait at breakfast is very long…

There is no one around if you need anything, so you have to wait. I think the waiter is on his own handling both room service and the downstairs dining room. The bread is not very good, but otherwise the rest is fine.

You should leave carafes of coffee and hot water/tea on the tables instead of empty decorative ones, so guests can help themselves. With at least some fresh bread and pastries available, it would make the whole breakfast service much smoother.

Nearly there
Pros:

Sumptuous vibe, the staff were informed that this was our honeymoon, no reaction to this.

Cons:

Our room had a smell of urine, the coffee table had brass banding which was sharp and coming away. We were next to some sort of heat pump or similar it came on and off all of our stay. The decor was tired, chipped, dented and banged about. Along the side of the bath panel was black mould/dirt.
