Time Out "Four Georgian townhouses comprise this absolutely charming place, named after William Hazlitt, the spirited 18th-century essayist who died here in abject poverty." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Hazlitt’s is as close to time travel as you can get: its period rooms feature fireplaces, antique beds, and claw-footed baths."
Gayot "Creaky stairs lead past walls jammed with period paintings and antiques, up to old-fashioned, charming rooms fitted with all sorts of nifty gimmicks."
Travel + Leisure "This stylish, 30-room hotel is located in London’s Soho district, in the heart of Theatreland, and just a short distance from Oxford Street, Covent Garden, and the world-class shopping on Bond Street." Full review
Zagat "Occupying a row of Georgian townhouses in Soho, this luxury boutique hotel recalls the private home of an 18th-century aristocrat – a mix of antiques, wood panelling and original fireplaces."
