"From the outside, The London Edition looks like a period Georgian hotel with its columned portico and intricate moldings." Full review

To be sure, The London Edition leaves its Georgian heritage at that door and sweeps you through its grand lobby bar to a minimalist black reception desk, lit with chunky candles.

Rough Guide
"A fixture on Clerkenwell’s laidback hipster scene. Rooms are simple but bold, with colourful panache and lots of eco touches."

Ask for a room at the rear of the hotel -- they back onto a quiet square.

"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
Gayot
