İmkanlar çok eksik, fayda maliyet oranı açısından baktığımda kalmam
Pros:

Konum, temizlik, dekorasyon, girişte kek ve meyve ikramı,

Cons:

Odada çok küçüktü, odada dolap yoktu, bavul koyabileceğimiz bir sandalye ya da yükseltici bir eşya yoktu, eşyalarımızı yere koyduğumuz bavuldan almaya çalıştık, bizden kahvaltı dahil para çekildi,rezervasyonu Mayıs 2026 nın ilk haftasında yapmıştım, sonrasında Nisan 2026 da kahvaltı servisimizi durdurduk diye Booking üzerinden otel mesaj attı, yine de kahvaltı dahil para çekildi, otelden mesaj attığım kişi kahvaltı için alınan paranın 10 gün içinde iade edileceğini yazdı, bakalım bekliyoruz, yani bu otelde tekrar kalabilirmiyim emin değilim

Very comfortable bed and pillows. Good blackout blinds and climate control in room. Beautifully adorned and perfect location.
Nice touch with water / sparkling water and tea / coffee in room and free drink at the bar.

Cons:

Ever so slightly too expensive for the facilities on offer.

disappointed
Cons:

no air con! 30degree heat. Horrible little fans that replaced. The hotel didn't notify us before arrival or on arrival. What was supposed to be a relaxing evening in our room was like 12hrs in a sauna. The windows only opened 10cm as well. An awful night and very disappointed. Food was way overpriced. £50 for a 1 drink, a sandwich and chips.

An Elegant and Cozy Stay
Pros:

The Zetter had such a charming, cozy vibe—amazing staff, wonderful food, and drinks that did not disappoint! The rooms were stylish and thoughtfully decorated, and the huge soaking tub in the bathroom? Absolute game changer!

Clerkenwell is packed with fantastic restaurants, and with the Tube just steps away, getting out and exploring during the day couldn’t have been easier. Would happily stay again!
