Guests can enjoy the warmth and services of an elegant Georgian Town House.For a luxury Town House in central London that truly makes you feel at home, make tracks for the Academy. Guests can enjoy the quirkiness and warmth of a large private home, combined with the sophistication and services of an elegant Georgian Town House. This luxury Town House offers guests the freedom of not one, but five lavishly decorated buildings. It excels outdoors in providing not one terrace garden but two private retreats. And for the ultimate indulgence, small groups can reserve one of the houses outright, complete with the Boardroom for their private use. The Alchemy restaurant is a haven of contemporary comfort, where guests can enjoy a leisurely breakfast. The menu includes a freshly baked continental buffet, or the ultimate traditional English breakfast. In the evening, the Alchemy Bar is the ideal meeting point before venturing out to the bright lights, or for a post theatre nightcap. Deep cushioned sofas, small private corners and friendly staff, give the bar a very relaxed atmosphere. For the guest requiring small meeting spaces, we can offer three well appointed meeting rooms including the charming Boardroom and the cosy Library. We also have an informal Conservatory adjoining one of the gardens, which lends itself perfectly to private entertaining.[less]
often single rooms can make one feel like a second class guest-this one didn't!
“The only thing to spoil my stay was my breakfast!I had asked recetion about 'breakfast in bed' facility, was told to complete an order card and hang on my door.The card wasn't collected, my breakfast was therefore 45 minutes later than ordered and my croissant was STONE cold.my 'treat' was ruined and as a diabetic it was a little dodgy too!”

Friendly and obliging staff, clean & well-furnished room, great breakfasts, excellent location for theatres and sight-seeing.
Tap water not hot and often not even warm - should be fixed but not a major issue affecting our stay
“We thoroughly enjoyed it. It would have been nice to have an Internet picture of the various room types available so we could have an idea of what was on offer before arriving at the reception counter.”
