Size of my suit, general aspect and ambiance of the hotel. Very quiet and peaceful. The location was excellent and the the staff were pleasant and helpful. The location, the athmosphere, staff are nice.The bed was very comfortable and the room service very nice. The room was quiet (apart from some noise in the corridor outside the room during cleaning) )and we did like the design in the room very much. The hotel has a calm atmosphere in general. The reception was very friendly. Not quite enough hangers in the closet for 2 adults.Only shower was not very practical for use. housekeeping at 9.20am is definitely too early.The style of the room was not to my liking, but that isn't a complaint, more just our taste. I as told I wld get a reduction of 20% being part of a wedding party.This was not offered and we found it difficult to ask of this benefit. It is getting old, floors are not well isolated, not everything works perfectly any more. The bathroom! The design was interesting but the functionality (esp. of the taps) suffered a lot. The fixing of the TV on the wall needed replacement. Some renovation is needed in order to achieve the status that this hotel really deserves.

Food & Drink
Tucked away from London’s hustle and bustle, the Hempel, complete with its private Zen Garden, offers exclusive dining in stunning, stylish surroundings. Regarded by many as a well-kept secret, the restaurant’s understated sophistication appeals to residents and the local set alike.
The restaurant offers fine dining and superb cuisine, with a menu that changes regularly to reflect the finest, freshest produce available, highlighting the best of British and European ingredients from handpicked, independent suppliers.
Signature dishes include pan-fried Scottish diver scallops with globe artichoke puree, Jerusalem artichoke foam and grain-mustard jelly. The Laverstock Estate farm partridge with pearl barley, celeriac, smoked bacon and cep mushrooms provides another delicate taste sensation. An iced ginger parfait, green tea jelly, coconut mousse and crystallised ginger makes for a delicious but supremely light dessert.
Advance bookings are recommended to avoid disappointment.
