Pros:

Great location - clean and well maintained rooms above a nice traditional London pub

Cons:

Please update the check in times - although they do have storage for bags we had planned a day around the advertised times so needed shower etc before heading out - therefore in our situation needed to wait.

It was good just needed a little more tlc and the noises from the plumbing sorted!
Pros:

Great location.

Cons:

Could be updated a little with feather duvet and pillows etc. Also a warning , if you are on the top floor as we were, how many staircases you’d need to climb!

Would definitely stay at Gunmakers again next time we’re in London.
Pros:

Fantastic location in Marylebone with trendy shops and great restaurants all around. Trendy coffee shop right across the road. Room was clean and comfortable with everything we needed. Loved the big windows you could open for fresh air. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Easy check in. Convenient for leaving luggage before and after your stay.

Schöner Pub in guter Lage, als zuverlässiger Gastgeber nicht zu empfehlen.
Pros:

Die Lage und der Pub waren gut

Cons:

Gastgeber reagiert nicht auf E Mails, es kam bis heute keine Kommunikation zu Stande. Das Waschbecken war bei Ankunft verstopft und am 2. Tag stand die Zimmertür offen, als ich wieder zurück kam. Anscheinend hatte die Putzkraft nicht abgeschlossen.

Gunmakers
Pros:

Initial staff contact was great. Arrived slightly earlier than check in time but room was ready so we were able to leave our bags and crack on with our day.
Room was on top floor, ( no lift) so a bit of a hike, but room was lovely. We were the Churchill room.
Great shower
Comfy bed
Nice coffee machine.

Cons:

The plumbing needs attention, particularly the taps in the bathroom and kitchenette which both 'whistle' when turned off... the bathroom drips too unless you really screw it tight up.

Loved our stay here in a great location and gorgeous little pub!
Pros:

Great location, cute rooms and loved being on top of a gorgeous London pub.

Cons:

Very hot water in shower meant we just had quick showers. Also an odd beeping sound from bathroom that was disruptive.

Estancia perfecta
Pros:

La ubicación es perfecta, entre 2 paradas de metro que conectan el centro de Londres con cualquier punto. El tamaño de la habitación y la comodidad es perfecta

Cons:

Tener un bar típico inglés siempre es sinónimo de ruidos pero no suelen cerrar muy tarde...

Extreem lawaaierig - niet professioneel / niet hulpvaardig - doch ruime kamer = wij komen niet meer terug :-/
Pros:

+ zeer ruime kamer met ruime badkamer, koelkastje, veel ruimte voor kledij op te bergen

+ vriendelijke personeel in de pub maar deze wisten helaas niets ivm het hotel. 1 van de barmannen bracht wel uit zichzelf al onze koffers via de trappen naar het 1ste verdiep.

Cons:

- Enkel glas en niet afsluitend raam en glasraam stuk bovenaan met hele dag en nacht veel lawaai van de straat (non stop) en van de pub (pub tot 23u30) alsof het raam gewoon open staat. Zelfs met oordoppen onmogelijk om te kunnen slapen. Ramen dienen echt vernieuwd te worden!

- Verwarming / airco op de kamer maar deze maakt om de zoveel minuten (als de airco bij koelt) veel lawaai waarvan ook meermaals wakker geworden. Verouderd en luid.

- Personeelsruimte was naast onze kamer. Veel lawaai in gang en van trap en deur van in vroege tot in late uren.

- Voor aankomst wel communicatie via Booking met eigenaar maar eens dag van aankomst geen enkele reactie meer op vragen rond lawaai, mogelijkheid voor andere kamer, oplossingen. Totaal niet professioneel, geen hulp.
Personeel van de bar erover aangesproken (zeer vriendelijke mensen maar niet bevoegd voor hotel) en ze zouden het doorgeven maar niets meer van gehoord en niemand gezien.

- Wc-borstel stak nog gewoon in het toilet toen we aankwamen. Afvoer van douche lag los en hing vol haar. Stond nog een geopende fles drinken in de koelkast van vorige hotelgasten. Was niet extreem vuil maar ook verre van proper. De poetsploeg moet echt wel deftiger poetsen en alles nakijken.

2night stay at Gunmakers
Pros:

Lovely big room, comfy bed, handy kitchen and great bathroom with big shower.
The location was perfect for getting about.

Cons:

Only thing I would mark it down on was the fact that we were in the attic which meant 6 flights of stairs to our room and then another 2 to get into the room. As we are pensioners, although quite fit, it was a slog with a heavy case to get up there.
However we had no noise from the pub downstairs and slept well.
