My colleague in London recommended the Zetter hotel as it was a walking distance from our offices in London. I took my wife and daughter (18 months) with me and she had a nice welcome. The staff were amazing. During my one week stay, I would have expected a flaw from the staff, but I was amazed to see that... More

This is a really nice hotel, especially if you have business on Clerkenwell Road. I found it a bit out of the way for any activity on the weekend, but it is close to a couple of tube stations. The neighborhood is good with a few solid restaurants in the area. The hotel restaurant is overpriced and stuffy. I thought... More

Really good part of town. But über coolness affects rest of hotel. Tiny rooms, no storage, drinks machine in the hall...for £180! Not sure.

This is the second time that I have spend one night in this Hotel. The first thing i can confirm is that the reception was extremely efficient. Less than 3' for registration etc. etc. I was upgraded automatically to a better room, on the 5th floor with a spectacular terrasse and view over London City. The furniture, bed, environment as...

Its very rare to find a boutique hotel that ticks all the boxes, and this definitely does. The rooms are really funky and functional. The standards are slightly on the small side but have everything you need. There are great little gadgets like iPod docks etc. The rain showers in the bathroom are awesome. The location is great with so... More

We found ourselves in this quirky and friendly hotel as a result of wanting to stay in the Clerkenwell area where our son was working. You would usually find us in the more familiar tourist areas of London. The reception was extremely friendly and helpful and made us feel right at home. It was a surprise to find brown shag... More

Checked into the Zetter for a weekend pre-business meeting layover. Although this trip I was not able to book into a larger room, and was disappointed to not have the extra space, the super helpful staff improved my mood as soon as I checked in. They bent over backwards to make sure I had everything I needed even reminding me... More

We discovered the Zetter by chance as we had a table booked at St John's and wanted to stay nearby. What a fabulous find it turned out to be! It is run by a team of young, attentive, courteous staff who attend to your needs with efficiency and discretion. The rooms are individually designed and spotless, with quality fixtures and... More

There was one weak point during the breakfast:... More
