      An Eccentric Georgian Gem with Bohemian Charm

      The Zetter Clerkenwell Hotel is a captivating journey into a whimsical world of 'Victoriana' and bohemian elegance, offering an intimate and uniquely British experience in the heart of historic Clerkenwell.

      At Luxscapia, we are consistently drawn to hotels that possess a distinct personality and a rich sense of character. The Zetter Clerkenwell Hotel London, nestled in a picturesque cobbled square in the vibrant Clerkenwell district, is a prime example. This quirky boutique hotel, housed in a Georgian townhouse, is inspired by the adventures of an imaginary Great Aunt Wilhelmina, creating an atmosphere that is both sophisticated and delightfully eccentric. For discerning travellers seeking an intimate and memorable retreat with unparalleled access to London's historic markets, cultural institutions, and thriving culinary scene, our review explores what makes The Zetter Clerkenwell a top choice for a luxury stay in London, from its exquisitely designed features to the array of refined experiences awaiting both within its walls and in the bustling city beyond.

      Unveiling the experience

      The Zetter Clerkenwell Hotel offers a distinctive array of features, meticulously crafted to provide a luxurious and comfortable stay with a strong sense of individual style.

      Unique, Eclectic Rooms & Suites

      The hotel's 13 rooms and suites are individually decorated, blending bright contemporary décor with homely antique furnishings. Expect chromatic and classic designs, repurposed circus-carousel headboards, and Union Flag-canopied four-poster beds. Rooms include free WiFi, flatscreen TVs, Marshall or Sonos speakers, Rare Tea Co teas, ground coffee, complimentary borehole spring water, and White Company amenities. Bathrooms feature black marble panelling, rain showers, bathrobes, and slippers.

      The Cocktail Lounge

      This bespoke cocktail lounge, designed in the style of an aristocratic drawing room, is table-service only and highly sought after. The menu features classic cocktails alongside innovative creations concocted with ingredients known for their therapeutic benefits, like the Curry Leaf Daiquiri or Nettle Gimlet.

      Intimate Dining (Small Eats & Supper Bowls)

      While there isn't a full-service restaurant, the lounge offers a menu of "small eats and supper bowls" that put a weird and wonderful twist on British classics, such as braised brisket and salmon ceviche.

      Breakfast

      Guests can enjoy a complimentary continental breakfast featuring homemade granola, bircher muesli, fresh fruits, pastries, a selection of meats and cheeses, and hot items like soft-boiled eggs and bacon (available on request).

      Quirky & Charming Atmosphere

      The hotel is crammed full of collectibles, taxidermy, and 'Victoriana,' creating a secret and special atmosphere that feels like a rich relative's time-capsule abode. The portrait of 'Great Aunt Wilhelmina' adds to this unique narrative.
