“The Sanctuary House Hotel distinguishes itself with its prime location near Westminster Abbey and its traditional Fuller's pub, a unique draw for those seeking authentic English fare. I appreciate that the hotel balances historical charm with modern comforts like air-conditioned rooms and complimentary Wi-Fi. While one incident regarding lost property raises concerns, the hotel's commitment to a smoke-free environment and its well-maintained rooms generally point to a solid experience.”

Excellent Stay in Central Location
central location delicious cookies blackout curtains
I found the location really good. Westminster Abbey and Big Ben were just a short walk away. The coffee pods, tea, hot chocolate and cookies in the room were a lovely touch. The fridge was useful for storing snacks. I liked the blackout curtains. They were great for blocking out the light.
I found no towel rack in the bathroom. There was also no surface to put luggage except for the floor. It felt quite inconvenient.
Location

The hotel is in the city center. Many attractions are within walking distance. I walked to the Houses of Parliament and St James's Park. It was easy to get around the area. There are also several shops and restaurants nearby.
