"I loved my stay at Flemings. no other word for it. And I will definitely stay here again if I'm able to go to London again.
Now for the very few caveats: I don't know if they somehow knew I was an 83 woman traveling alone, or not, but I suspect - but how? I have no idea. My room on the main floor, was on a hallway towards the back of the building, where it was totally quiet. You didn't enter the room directly off the lobby but after going through some doors and there were a number of rooms off this second hallway, so I didn't feel like I was practically sleeping in the lobby!
Some reviews mentioned having to navigate long hallways, level changes, and lots of stairways: I think this is inevitable if a hotel is created out of a number of old, small houses. You will definitely have a lot of level changes and yes, there could be a lot of walking to your room. That wasn't the case for me, and I will request the room I had when I return.
it has perhaps the most beautiful elevator I've ever encountered - lined with old, leather books. I'm not sure the entire books were there but it all felt like an old wonderful study! I went to the downstairs bar rather late one evening, by myself, and felt completely welcomed and comfortable. Just wanted a glass of wine after an evening out and it was perfect.
I didn't eat breakfast most days, but when I did the continental buffet was bountiful and delicious and lots of choices. considering the quality, not expensive.
This is a FIND!"
