The Rockwell Review
Despite being on the notoriously traffic-clogged Cromwell Road, this excellent little place is one of the best boutique hotels in this part of London—and windows have good soundproofing. Bedrooms, done in earthy, slightly retro tones, are comfortable, well-designed, and very spacious by London standards; mezzanine suites have two levels. Out back is a pleasant walled garden where you can relax with a drink or join a summertime barbecue. Family rooms offer especially good value-for-money. The restaurant serves decent modern British food.
