The area is safe and walkable and is near museums and shopping. The hotel itself was charming, clean, and comfortable with great amenities. We would definitely stay here again.

The location and property were great however we were kept awake by the very noisy heating system in our 5th floor room. We changed rooms to another floor at around 1.00am where it was fine.

I have stayed at the Ampersand many times now and there is a reason for that. It's just a lovely place to stay. Everything is clean and comfortable, the staff are lovely, and any problems are quickly sorted. This time, there was a minor problem with my booking (not the hotel's doing) that was sorted out quickly and efficiently. I use hotels a fair bit, and the Ampersand certainly at the top of the list. I will continue to use the Ampersand whenever I am in London.
