      The Corus was a good value for the money - especially after walking into some of the other private hotels in the area....the room was clean and spacious by European standards. The towels were a little worn as was the carpet and the upholstered furniture - but the bed had crisp linens and the bath was very clean. With little time spent in the room, I would consider staying there again for the price.

    We needed a roll-a-way bed one evening and it was delivered within ten minutes of our request. We needed room service before our taxi picked us up for... the airport and it was delivered right away. The hotel provides excellent service. Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Jan 3, 2013

    A "smashing" surprise. I hesitate to tell the truth of how wonderful the hotel is as I would be sorry to see it become too popular. It's an imaginative, yet completely British experience. No room numbers, names of people instead each with their history shared in the hotel briefing package. And the Honesty Bar, in the living room, truly a living room […] and not the sterile home to tired business men, the Honesty Bar lets you serve yourself as you would at home and write on a notepad what you've taken. Nice. My compliments to the staff whose every effort indeed made our stay a delight. Read more

    The neighborhood was great: a fascinating part of London. Very quiet, history-filled and lots of great restaurants. Our room was full of 19th century charm but with that came a few downfalls for the modern traveler: It was very dark in the rooms and there was only a victorian tub, no shower. Nonetheless, I plan to stay there again and would gladly recommend […] it to my friends and fellow travelers. Read more

    Came to London to catch a cruise in Dover. We wanted to see London before the trip but we unfortunately landed there during the Queen's jubilee. EVERYTHING was pretty much closed for four days. Even the Starbucks. But close to the tube and all the transportation if needed. Within walking distance to most areas we wanted to see. Getting around was a […] bit difficult due to the blocked roads and all the patriots waiting to get a brief glimpse of the queen and her family. We had a hard time trying to find a place where they'd let you cross the road. We wanted to see the sites, not the queen. But still had a good time. Hotel staff was absolutely lovely. Street can be noisy due to a pub very close by. Read more

    Me and my wife loved this hotel. Great location right next to Farringdon Station with access to main lines and 1 stop from King's Cross Station. Convenient 24hr grocery store right around the corner. Plenty of restaurants and pubs in the area. Only thing that might be a hassle is that there are no elevators. If you have a lot of large luggage, you might […] not enjoy lugging everything up 3 flight of stairs. Everything else about the hotel was so amazing though that I really didn't even care about that. Plus, you can always ask to be on a lower level. One other thing, the shower/tub is a old style tub where you can't really take a shower without making a mess. There's no curtains so you have to basically sit in the tube and rinse yourself off. But again, i didn't mind that considering how great the hotel was. Plus it was different so I enjoyed it. Highly recommend this hotel. We had a great time and would definitely stay there again. Read more

    The Rookery has charm, comfort and excellent service. The rooms are homey and very comfortable. Wireless is free and the "honesty" bar is cozy and comfortable for drinks to take on the "honors" system. I love staying here and always return when I'm in London. It's 2 minutes walk from Faringdon Station.

    This is a lovely old hotel with a lot of charm. The staff is very friendly and helpful, and available 24 hours a day. The room was big, and very comfortable, the bathroom roomy and well equipped. The bed was probably the most comfortable bed we have ever slept in. Although old (built in the late 1700's), the hotel has been modernized with air conditioning. The […] hotel is within walking distance of The British Library, The British Museum, and St. Paul's Cathedral. Also, there is a Tube station less than one block from the hotel that will get you anywhere in London you want to go. The hotel is exactly like the pictures on the website. The only drawback to this hotel is that there is no elevator. We would definitely recommend The Rookery to family and friends. Read more

The only drawback is that room is a little bit dark. I would add one more source of light, but anyway, we were too tired walking around London and didn't read.

    On a recent trip my wife and I thought we'd stay somewhere a bit different and found the rookery a delightful little surprise. No mod cons in this hotel but a real trip back in time with authentic 19th century decor and roll top bath with brass fixtures. Staff were very helpful and although we only stayed a night would of liked two or three days there! […] Great location too ! Read more

    In the heart of Smithfield Market you will find this unexpected treasure. The Rookery is lovely, old, quirky, charming and unique. With roll top baths and four poster beds it is the perfect destination for a romantic get-away. There is no restaurant (but you have a wonderful choice on your doorstep) and after dinner you can come back and relax in the […] cosy conservatory with its honesty bar and log fire. It is heaven. I couldn't recommend this hotel more, go on and treat yourselves, you won't regret it! Read more

Our room (a superior double) was extremely comfortable, and spacious. Good audiovisual, including a docking station and a DVD player (they have a good DVD library should you fancy a movie). Hotel staff were helpful and competent […] but definitely in the background. This suited us very well, felt very much at home and able to do what we felt like (honesty bar in the drawing room, for e.g.) but might not be for those who would rather have hotel staff preempting their needs Read more

    Having Stayed at this hotel before, some 10 yrs ago, our experience this time was not as pleasing as our previous. Considering we havent stayed at the hotel for a whole decade nothing had really changed. The decor and service exactly the same. I would have thought that a hotel would have updated the decor and its approach to service since then. In a […] decade a lot has changed in terms of guest expectations, technology and level of service and the speed in which guests expect things to be done. Although the design of the hotel is true to its intent, an authentic traditional English abode of its time, one cant help but feel disappointed that this hotel is not taking full advantage of this, to develop a great boutique hotel given the solid base it already has. The rooms need 'refreshing' or even reinventing to bring them in line with todays modern way of living, Rooms are a bit dark. Use of net curtains, felt like I was staying at my grannies. Add a lift for upper floors, Ensure all rooms have showers, Some only have baths, etc. Basically a good hotel which could be outstanding given a little more attention to detail... Read more

    We stayed in The Rookery for a long weekend and enjoyed it. The hotel is located in a quiet walking street, and only once I woke up to the sounds of the City (an occasional rapper at 4a.m.). Rooms were dark but stylishly and on purpose I presume: old mahogany and antique everywhere apart from the TV. Recommended.
