Description:
Tired of large chain hotels? Head for this boutique charmer in the canal-laced "Little Venice" (an appellation bestowed by Lord Byron) area of London. A handsome Victorian edifice, the hotel was built in 1886 as two different structures, one of which was a hospital. An unusually shaped elevator, which was used to transport stretchers, still remains. Before he purchased his own place in Hampstead, Sigmund Freud stayed here in 1938. Each midsize bedroom is individually decorated, and many feature four-poster beds and small terraces. Tasteful fabrics and antiques evoke town-house living. The least desirable units are two small basement bedrooms. They are impeccably furnished but subject to rumblings from the Underground. Families might want to opt for the spacious two-level JFK suite.
