Still Life Chancery Lane

My stay at Hatton Garden Hotel in Farringdon was enjoyable and convenient enough, and it cost less than the other comparable hotels I found online. The fourth-floor room had a nice view and was far enough above street level to avoid the noisy crowd. It was clean, modern, and functional, though small to medium in size, so perhaps less suited to families than to couples or solo guests. The rain shower and heated floor were great, but figuring out the floor controls took a bit of time. The mattress was too firm for me and made the bed uncomfortable. A few details to keep in mind: Monday was much more expensive than the other nights, for no clear reason. The rates were Fr £97.83, Sa £143.58, Su £80.94, and Mo £159.34. On Monday morning, the desk clerk said Tuesday checkout was at 10:30, though the website and my third-party contract said 11:00 AM, and there was no notice about the earlier time in the room. I was also told my receipt would be emailed, but it never came; they said the printer was down. I’m not accusing anyone of anything, just sharing what happened. I’d recommend it.

A friendly little hotel for business trips in the area, especially if you need a quiet room to rest. My room was very clean, the bed was comfortable, and the shower had great hot water. I appreciated the mini fridge and kettle. There’s no bar, but plenty of bars and places to get food nearby.

Getting around London was easy from the Hatton Garden Hotel. Lots of places are a 15-20 minute walk away, and the metro and bus lines are close by. We had a great stay, with new, clean, comfortable rooms and front desk staff who were polite, respectful, and helpful the whole time.

I was there for work, and the hotel had what I needed: it was super clean, the room had a hairdryer, kettle, towels, and other essentials, and they could hold my luggage. The location was also really convenient for my plans. The one nuisance was the noise from upstairs. The other guests came back after I’d gone to sleep, and I could hear them stomping around. Pretty annoying.
