Twenty Nevern Square Hotel

Far from the Soho madness, 4-star boutique hotel gem in attractive restored Victorian townhouse near Earl's Court, without boutique price tag. Prized for tasteful décor, good location, and excitingly reasonable on the funds front. Rooms can be small but inventively decorated and individually styled, with four poster beds and sleigh beds. Ask for the Pasha suite replete with opulent fabrics, hand carved furniture and largest marble bathroom in the house. Generous breakfast should reconcile you with English food. Your only regret may be that at the end of your stay, you gotta get the hell out.
