Find the Cheap Harrow Hotels

Lovely hotel but barman tried to charge for 2 free glasses of wine and reception tried to charge for 4 breakfasts when we had only ordered 2. Other than that everything was good.

I went there because the place I was staying at wasn’t available. The staff was friendly and asked about my day everyday, which is a nice touch. The amenities are quite bare bone, and expect to bring in things other than shower gel and shampoo. There is a bus station right in front of the hotel, but the nearest two tube stations are both in Zone 5, so it might take close to an hour to get to central London on busier days.

When I say cost-effective I don't mean cheap: the room size was well above anything that could be called cheap, but the bill was half of what I have paid in the past for a much smaller room; it was really good, with 2 growing children, not to feel crammed in. The hotel itself is a row of terraced houses, with shops at street level and private car park behind. In addition to retaining many original features - the fireplace filled in in favour of central heating, but not removed - the conversion to hotel has given the building something of a Heath Robinson quality: there are no corridors above ground level, with rooms coming off landings. etween the landings there are mezzanine levels with bathrooms and kitchens, and adjacent landings connect, via short flights of stairs and a fire door, to the landing in the adjacent 'house', which is were the Heath Robinson quality comes from: terrible for disabled access, but great fun in getting from your room to the car! The kitchens were a welcome surprise as they allowed further cost savings on evening meals, from the supermarket over the road, rather than takeaway as we had originally intended. In short, what we had intended as merely a cheep place to stay while we visited London became a part of the attraction in it's own right.
