รีวิวโดย @theeventsgirl: I stayed here for a work event and was blown away. The rooftop view of The Shard is incredible for evening drinks, and the self-service wine barrels were such a fun touch. It’s the perfect spot if you want to impress clients or just treat yourself after a long meeting.

Reality check
The 'Standard' rooms are genuinely compact—if you have two large suitcases, you might be playing Tetris to get to the bathroom.
- You appreciate 'dark academia' aesthetics and speakeasy vibes
- You want a rooftop bar that feels exclusive rather than chaotic
- You're in town for business or a romantic weekend and plan to pack light

ก่อนที่คุณจะจอง
สิ่งที่ควรรู้
- The hotel is in the 'City of London' (financial district), which means it's buzzing Mon-Fri but very quiet (and some shops close) on weekends
- There is no on-site parking; use public transport (Mansion House tube is 2 mins away)
- Breakfast is not usually included in the base rate and costs ~£22-28 per person
สิ่งที่ควรเตรียมตัว
- Smart casual outfits – the rooftop and basement bars have a polished vibe
- A universal travel adapter (though USB ports are plentiful by the bed)
Room Genie
เลือกสรรยอด
- Deluxe Studio – worth the upgrade for the floor-to-ceiling windows and extra breathing room
- Balcony Suites – the only way to get private outdoor space with those killer skyline views
ห้องที่ควรหลีกเลี่ยง
- Standard Double if you are claustrophobic or traveling with heavy luggage
- Lower floor rooms facing the street if you are a very light sleeper (bin trucks)

“I would love a room on a high floor to maximize the natural light and views. If possible, a corner room would be appreciated for the extra quiet.”
คำถามที่พบบ่อย & เคล็ดลับที่ซ่อนอยู่
ทุกสิ่งที่คุณต้องการรู้จริงๆ ก่อนที่จะจอง
Is there a gym?
Yes, but it's very compact. Think 'essentials only'—dumbbells, a treadmill, and a bike. Good for a quick sweat, not a powerlifting session.
Is it good for families?
Not really. The rooms are tight and the vibe is very grown-up. They can provide cots in Deluxe rooms, but it will be a squeeze.
How is the Wi-Fi?
Excellent and free throughout the hotel, suitable for video calls and streaming.
Can I walk to tourist spots?
Absolutely. St Paul's Cathedral, Tate Modern, and Shakespeare's Globe are all within a 10-15 minute walk.
Is there room service?
Yes, 24-hour room service is available, which is a nice luxury for a hotel of this size.
What is the 'Vintry' and 'Mercer' theme?
It honors the local history: 'Vintry' for the wine merchants and 'Mercer' for the fine fabric sellers who used to trade in this neighborhood.
เคล็ดลับท่องเที่ยว
- ✨
Skip the hotel breakfast one morning and walk 3 minutes to Rosslyn Coffee on Queen Victoria St for the best flat white in the City.
- ✨
The basement bar 'DND' (Do Not Disturb) is a legitimate speakeasy—book a table in advance even if you are a guest.
- ✨
If you're staying on a Sunday, be aware that many local 'City' lunch spots will be closed, so head across the bridge to Borough Market.
5 สิ่งที่ต้องรู้ก่อนเดินทาง
💡The corridors are intentionally dark and moody—it sets a vibe but can be tricky if you have poor night vision.
💡The 'Standard' rooms really are small (approx 16 sq m / 170 sq ft)—you are paying for the finish, not the floor space.
💡There is a hidden balcony on the roof terrace that offers a perfect photo op of the Shard without glass reflections.
💡The toiletries are Ortigia Sicilia, which smell incredible and are a cut above standard hotel soap.
💡You might hear the rumble of the Tube deep underground if you are super sensitive, but it's faint compared to most London hotels.
