I am used to unpleasant hotel surprises in London, but this was a very positive experience. It is a pub with an upstairs hotel and a bright red neon sign hanging over the door, but don't be fooled, behind the locked door is a quiet, compact and very clean hotel that breaths Scandinavian design. I arrived in the early evening and left in the morning, so I didn't have the time to explore the area other than the tube station across the street. I did not stay for breakfast in the pub, but I will be back the next time I'm in London. No need to gamble for a good hotel room again.
