Where to start?! From the outset, our experience of the Clarendon was not a good one. On arrival, the grossly inadequate car park was full to the brim. On asking door staff we were told "you can try the other car park round the back but that one's full too" leaving us to drive around for 10 minutes, eventually parking... more

We stayed here for one overnight - the Saturday of the early May bank holiday. The bank holiday weekend was busy with tourists but many Londoners had gone elsewhere, so the city was less crowded than usual. Reception staff were pleasant - both for checking in and checking out. We have stayed in other hotels in London - which are... more

I travelled from S.E Asia to visit family and did actually book an apartment in Greenwich which did not turn out to be as advertised so I went along to the Clarendon Hotel. The reception staff were lovely, extremely helpful, the porters a dream, and as my husband was joining me in 4 days, they gave me a special rate.... more

The location is excellent. On the plus side the bed was comfortable, breakfast was perfectly adequate and I was fortunate enough to get my car parked. But the room...! It was described as a 'superior' and thus cost more. However, it was rather like being in a timewarp from forty years ago. The bathroom in particular was far too small... more

The carpark is a bit cramped, but fairly typical of most London hotels. Excellent check-in procedures and surroundings. The room smelt a bit smokey, as did some of the corridors, but a friend pointed this out and was immediately moved to a newly decorated room. The food was good, although the staff seemed a bit keen to get cleared up... more

I stayed here with my partner for 1 night and 1 night was enough. I thought the hotel was dire! The room needed a total update, the floorboards creaky and uneven (felt like I was going to fall through the floor) and the decor hideous. It was extremely noisy and furthermore there were drunken arguments and fireworks outside our room.... more

OK Hotel- looks nice from the outside, Reception decorated nicely. Rooms were reasonably clean, except from lots of hair in the bath-plug. The thing that REALLY let it down was the complete rudeness of the reception staff. Not one smile, not one enquiry about our stay, etc, very rude and obviously customers are nothing but a hindrance! I could not... more

Oh dear.. where to start.... There's loads of stairs, everywhere, even a couple down into the bathroom in my room. My room was dark and dingy, with dubious cleanliness. I didn't quite feel as though I needed another shower when I left, but it certainly wasn't good. It's noisy because of the road outside and the creaking floorboards inside. Like... more

I stayed at the Clarendon Hotel in December 2006 and I would like to thank Micheal and all the hotel staff. Very professional and keen to help with good local knowlege. I stongly recommend asking for one of the larger rooms which do not cost extra. Very well decorated with antique furniture and modern hotel facilities. Great big bathroom to... more
