"The Celadon becomes the Petit Celadon at the weekend, with a simplified menu and more relaxed service."

Oyster4.0

Tip: avoid rooms in the -05 series: These are the smallest in the house.

Time Out "The building was once a private townhouse but became a hotel in 1905 and following a welcome makeover in 2015, it now boasts 101 rooms, comprising 80 rooms and 21 suites." Full review
