The bedsheets were clean, the TV worked, the bathrooms were terribly small. The barn door to the bathroom did not work properly and it was right across from our bed. The front desk staff was helpful. The housekeeping service was okay. It took 30-45 mins for an iron and a bottle of water. The lobby was beautiful. If they renovated the rooms like the lobby, I would come back. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/caf981cd-70b8-4c55-ada0-aef7e5776569-1765910439908.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/703eccbf-a97b-40cd-8824-86325ffd87c1-1765910439868.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Kathy Stayed 6 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Connie Jul 31, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Wonderful staff, clean rooms in a great central location. ##### Connie Stayed 8 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Greg Jul 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great hotel will stay again Lovely place to stay, close with tube links to lots of places, nice breakfast, comfy bed ##### Greg Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Laura Sep 21, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hotel is named after the early 20th century actress Ellen Terry, whose house it was.
