Great location, cleanliness, good breakfast and friendly service.
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel in London and were genuinely very pleased with our experience. The location was excellent — very convenient and situated in a great area with easy access to everything we needed during our trip. The hotel itself was clean, comfortable, and very well maintained. The breakfast was also very good, with a nice selection of food, and the service throughout our stay was friendly and professional. Overall, we truly enjoyed our time at the hotel and would gladly stay here again in the future.

Cons:

There are only two small things we would like to mention as suggestions for improvement. First, we would really appreciate having some sliced cheese available at breakfast. As guests from Scandinavia, having cheese for breakfast is something we are very used to and consider an important part of a good morning meal.
Secondly, our room windows faced the street, and unfortunately it was noisy throughout the night because of the heavy traffic outside. For future guests, we would definitely recommend choosing a room with windows facing the courtyard rather than the street side.

Jederzeit wieder!
Pros:

Fantastisches Frühstück m. grosser Auswahl in einem sehr schönen Saal; Möglichkeit das Frühstück im Garten einzunehmen.
Charmantes, sehr verwinkeltes Hotel in ausgezeichneter Lage.
Unser Zimmer war etwas verwohnt, aber sauber m. bequemen Betten.

Cons:

Mehrmals täglich Neuanmeldung im WLAN erforderlich, jedoch gute Signalstärke.
Lange Wartezeit an der Bar ( haben diese jedoch nur 1x besucht, also eher eine Momentaufnahme ).

Enjoyed v much! ;-) ;-)
Pros:

Love the Clarendon! Breakfast is fab. Staff are fab. So hope it continues as a hotel with the same staff. My sister has just started visiting and we stay here and love it!

Cons:

Visited the bar but staff were a bit busy as there was a Murder Mystery taking place so a little wait to be served, but not a big problem at all.

Pros:

The reception team were superb, helpful attentive and friendly. The parking was great. The room was ok, bathroom clean, and noise transmission between rooms as one would expect for a Victorian building.

Cons:

The bed was uncomfortable. The room faced the Heath, and was noisy from early morning, and there was no secondary double glazing, just old sash windows.
