The well-lit hallways are long, and some guest rooms are quite a hike from the common areas (request rooms near elevators).
Gayot Gayot

"A delightful little hideaway in trendy Clerkenwell. It’s as charming as can be."

"Occupying six Georgian houses and stores... this Dickensian hideaway retains many original features, such as flagstone floors in the hall and ceiling beams in some of the rooms."
Gayot Gayot
"To that end, a row of Georgian houses in a narrow lane have been turned into a little gem of a hotel; it is creaky and quaint and feels as if it's been around forever."
Frommer's Frommer's
"Quirky, eccentric, and laden with a sense of the antique, the Rookery is a great choice for travelers who want a hotel with the atmosphere of Dickens' or Dr. Johnson's London." Full review
