Lovely find for a weekend in London.
The counting house is a hotel at the side of a pub there is a separate entrance. The room was small but was perfect for what we needed. Had a great nights sleep over the 2 nights, it’s so quiet. Mini bar was complimentary with water and soft drinks. Also provided is an iron, hairdryer and toiletries. Breakfast is included in the room price and was delicious on both mornings. They also catered for gluten free. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Very happy with the hotel.

Staff were amazing
Outstanding service in a very well kept boutique hotel. Food was just as good as the service. The location sits just a few blocks from the subway stations. You will hardly need to use them as many attractions, restaurants, and shopping are only a short walk from the hotel.

Great find. Rooms A1. Staff so helpful. Room was ready so allowed to check in a little early and bags stored on checkout for later pick up. Breakfast was great start to the morning. Good location for tube, buses or just walk. Will definitely go again. Great value for money in the city location.

Quiet, Comfortable Room With Excellent Breakfast
We enjoyed our stay at Counting House immensely. It's the quietest hotel in an urban setting I've ever experienced! Our room was on the first floor just above the pub. On the night of the Euro Cup final, where everyone was cheering and screaming and singing (and ultimately crying, sorry England), we heard absolutely nothing in our room. Amazing! Lovely, friendly reception and pub staff. Great location, very clean room, comfortable bed, excellent breakfast. I especially loved both the English breakfast and the avocado-chili sourdough with poached eggs.

The Counting House rooms are very sizable which I was impressed with. AC worked very well which was wonderful. Very quiet rooms and decent amenities. Also great to have the pub right next door- breakfast included in the morning and it was a great spread. Staff is very kind. Elevator was very problematic during our stay which was unfortunate because there are a lot of stairs to go up (my older parents had a difficult time with it- wouldn’t have been as big of an issue if I were traveling solo). The bed was ok but the sheets themselves were quite rough (I’ve never had skin issues with bedding before but I did leave with skin irritation on my body - not clear whether it’s from cleaning products they use or what led to this). Overall I’d recommend as a nice spacious and quiet option convenient to Bank street tube station and all the sightseeing!
