Request one of the refurbished rooms; some of the older units are looking a little tired.

Michelin Guide "Smart, spacious hotel... with stylish blend of modern and antique furnishings."
Concierge "If style is high on your list of priorities, then look no further than the Haymarket."
Time Out "The public spaces are a delight, with Kemp’s trademark combination of contemporary arty surprises... and impossible-to-leave, bright, plump, floral sofas." Full review
DK Eyewitness "A boutique addition to the West End’s luxury hotels, the Haymarket has subtly colorful, very well-equipped rooms and suites designed with panache."
Star Service "In the heart of London's West End, just off the Haymarket and a few minutes' walk from Piccadilly and Trafalgar Square, it is adjacent to the Haymarket Theater and very close to the National Gallery." Full review
Gayot "With the Haymarket Hotel, hoteliers Tim and Kit Kemp continue to corner the boutique hotel market in London."
Travel + Leisure "Even the Haymarket’s indoor pool lounge is no mere fitness center—its wenge-and-pewter bar, nightclub-caliber sound system, and 300-person capacity are clearly meant for after-hours activities." Full review
Zagat "Situated in a row of Georgian townhouses in the Theatre District, this upscale boutique hotel is done up in contemporary English style by noted interior designer Kit Kemp."
