Message | For many years I have been looking for THE place to stay in London, a place where the location, the price, the interior and the service were just perfect. Now I’ve found it! The B&B Belgravia is a five-minute walk from Victoria Station, which is convenient when arriving from Gatwick. It is located in a quiet residential street, near a few shops, in what seems to be two former townhouses.
At street level there is a small lounge, where you can relax with a cup of coffee or tea from the coffee machine, which replaces the usual hospitality tray in the room. What a good idea! There is also a laptop with free Internet, which came in handy, a couple of times, and there is a small library of London literature, which was helpful as well.
The breakfast room is also very modern, lots of light and glass around, and we could sit and watch our English breakfast being cooked just in front of us. The breakfast selection was good; in fact we never managed to squeeze in lunch! Of the staff we met 4 girls of various ages, they were all helpful and kind. It was also very useful for us, that we could leave our luggage in an out-of-the-way corridor for a few hours before catching our afternoon flight.
After having worked my way through several Bloomsbury hotels and a few in the Kensington & Chelsea area I will now stop my search. B&B Belgravia may not be what you imagine when you think of a typical place to stay |
