Charming Historic Hotel Near West Ealing Station

Just steps from West Ealing Station sits this delightful Fuller's-owned hotel. Its impressive， nearly gothic architecture suggests it was once a significant building. We arrived， exhausted and hungry， just before 10 pm after a lengthy cross-Atlantic journey. The reception area was empty， though an event was underway in the lower rooms. Fortunately， the pub was still open， and they kindly accepted our last-minute order， letting us settle into a cozy corner for a much-needed meal. My partner had bangers and mash—classic British comfort food—and loved it. I chose pizza， which was tasty and hot， but this isn't an Italian pizzeria. Once well-fed， we checked in and received our room keys. The hotel décor is charming， with a modern English Country style that seems freshly updated， which I adored. Our room had a bay window， though the view was unremarkable. Despite its small size， the room was perfect， with the bay window down a few steps， providing space for a desk and chair. The bathroom was spotless with a lovely rain shower. The bedding felt luxurious， completely enveloping me in the hotel’s comforting ambiance. Breakfast was included in our stay， with a good menu catering to vegetarians and those with food allergies. The vegetarian breakfast on the first day was underwhelming—perhaps due to the seasoning or variety—but the shashuka on the second day was delightful. This was our second stay at this hotel in London. It offers excellent value for money and feels more luxurious than other， pricier hotels we’ve experienced in the city. I won't hesitate to return.
