Fantastic little spot. Surprisingly quiet considering it's over a pub. Never heard any of the noise from the pub and stayed over on a Friday night as well. My room was tucked up and away on the opposite side of the building from the main pub dining area. Breakfast was absolutely lovely as was the breakfast room. (Didn't hurt that it was sunny every day that I was there.)

Nice Place to stay, very friendly and helpfull staff. Our room nr. 6 was clean and anything needed was available, the bed was pretty comfortable. The breakfast was delicious, but if you stay as we for 4 Nights a Little bit more variation would be nice.

The Brownswood is a great place to stay in London, only 8-10 minute walk to the metro and with spacious lovely rooms very rare for London hotels. The rooms are well maintained and clean and the bathrooms is also spacious and modern. This hotel is located in the green quiet neighborhood and the garden on the property is really lovely - great beers and food! Very enjoyable in the evenings and obviously popular with the locals. Dita is a lovely host - made us feel very welcome and the breakfast was exceptional!

Daniel and Miriam’s London stay

The Brownswood was a beautiful guest room in close proximity to Finsbury Park. The room provided a great place to rest and refresh. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom ideal. The staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast room was a lovely way to start the day in London. The pub downstairs was a great place to have a quiet drink or eat some tasty pub food. The walk to Manor House underground station was less than a kilometre and very easy down Green Lanes rd. A great stay.
