Stayed at the Lime Tree for 2 weeks in April. The wonderful staff make this a really great hotel. Don't expect a huge room. I was a single traveller and had a single room which was SMALL but well presented. Being an old building, this hotel does not have a lift so be prepared for lots of stairs. More

This was our first visit to London.We stayed three nights in the Lime Three and found it lived up to its motto: 'Home from home'. We were in room 19 and each morning the sun beamed in through the large window. Breakfasts were as good as I have had anywhere. Staff friendly and chatty and David an interesting host. Hopefully...

We stayed for 3 nights and loved being able to walk to many of the London attractions or hop on the Tube easily. The neighborhood is very quiet and safe. The staff was very helpful and friendly, we enjoyed the places they recommended for dinner/lunch (very good food and right down the street). We also enjoyed the breakfasts they serve,... More

As we knew from previous reviews, the hotel is a wonderful find with one exception - no elevator. With 8 suitcases to lug upstairs, it was a challenge, but manageable. To emphasize the positive, the rooms were large by European standards, quiet, with comfortable beds and modern bathrooms. The breakfasts were outstanding and the stafff was extremely friendly and helpful.... More

Great location near Victoria in a nice neighborhood. My stay was in room #1 which is a small single with shower, toilet and a sink in the room. I found the small room to be very clean, as the whole place appeared to be. Everything was in working order. Bed offered a restfull sleep. The staff are very helpful with... More

We stayed at the Lime Tree for a week, and it was terrific. Everyone there was friendly and helpful and seemed very involved in helping us to have a wonderful time in London. Since it was our first time in London, we really appreciated all the suggestions and directions and recommendations for places to eat. The neighborhood was lovely, and... More

So much to say. Getting here from Heathrow is a breeze. Forget the Tube. Take the bus. Six pounds and about 20 minutes without traffic. Station is easy to find in Heathrow and arrival station is literally a half a block around the corner from the Lime Tree Hotel (LTH). Very handy. Location of the Lime Tree is unbelievable. Belgravia... More

There are hundreds if not thousands of quality London lodging options. But the Lime Tree is our favorite comfy, cozy home away from home whenever we're in London. If its close proximity to the Victoria bus, rail and tube stations weren't reason enough, the helpful staff, delicious breakfasts and comfortable accommodations in a charming, quiet neighborhood have continued to win...

Lime Tree Hotel was such a charming place to make our home base while in London! The staff were excellent, breakfast was good, rooms were clean and comfy. Some people may find them a little on the small side, but we were impressed with the size considering the age of the building! The only real complaint we had was that... More

Overall a good stay in a great location with a great staff. But be forewarned: the "twin" rooms are very small. Actually too small to be comfortable. We were relegated to the very top floor which felt like we were in the attic. In fact, you almost hit your head in the hallway on the ladder which is affixed to... More
