"A fixture on Clerkenwell’s laidback hipster scene. Rooms are simple but bold, with colourful panache and lots of eco touches."
"A trendy and discreet converted 19C warehouse with well-equipped bedrooms that come with pleasant touches, such as Penguin paperbacks."
"It was only a matter of time before a hotel blended the edgy Shoreditch scene with the creature comforts demanded by City types." Full review

Ask for a room at the rear of the hotel -- they back onto a quiet square.
"Almost best of all, the rates are (for London) way low."
"The dizzying five-story atrium, Art Deco staircase, and slick European restaurant hint at the delights to come in this converted warehouse." Full review
"The Zetter comprises two quite different properties, both exemplary in their execution." Full review
"Zetter is a fun, laid-back, modern hotel with some interesting design notes." Full review

"This Victorian warehouse turned 59-room hotel on London’s heavily trafficked Clerkenwell Road is missing nary a detail of what constitutes a cutting-edge big-city boutique hotel." Full review
"This Clerkenwell lodging goes for ultrahip with its Champagne-and-camera-stocked vending machine, hot water bottles, second hand books and Scandinavian/industrial style."
