My wife and I have just returned from a short break in London hand stayed for a couple of nights at this excellent B&B. There are nine rooms of various types and we stayed in the one of the two garden rooms which are in a seperate building in the garden of the main house. Our room was very comfortable... more

My partner and I just got home from a one week stay at Melrose House, and we were very happy with the experience! We stayed in Room 3, with the canopy bed, and slept very soundly in the comfy bed with soft sheets and down comforter. The bathroom was nice too - cozy, but not cramped, and very nicely decorated.... more

We stayed there during the summer vacation of 2008 (in Jul). The only regret I had was that we could only spend 2 nights at Melrose House as the rest of the month was fully booked! I definitely will recommend this to everyone who's is thinking of vacationing in London. True, its a tad far away from the bustling city... more

I couldn't recommend Melrose House more highly. My room was lovely and clean. I had a private bathroom just a few steps away. The breakfast was good. When I was there several people were staying there that stayed there often. That's a good sign. The location is great. It's a pleasant 10-15 minute walk to the train and a short... more

Wonderful accommodations, Not the largest rooms, but the place was truly a home away from home. A five minute walk to the train and then 10 minutes to Victoria station. It was a wonderful base during our four days in London. The breakfast was very good, included in the room price and saved me about $60 a day! I would... more

I was concerned that Melrose House was a bit far from the center of London but, the price was right! We discovered that this family run Victorian town house is only a 4 block walk from the train station and a 15 minute ride to Victoria Station. The rooms are individually decorated in the style of the house. I was... more

I've stayed at Melrose House on two occasions. My experience was wonderful each time. Room #2 is my favorite as it provides you with the large bathroom just across the hall. Why has it been so long since my last stay? I did something really stupid and booked into hotels closer to central London. Now, if you have the money... more

We stayed at Melrose house for 21 days in October. The house is about a 8 minute walk to the Penge East railway station, and then about 18 minutes into Victoria Station, where you can branch out into any area of London. Penge is an older town, with the Old Estalishment living there. (Mayberry USA of the 1950s). Such charm!... more

I am a cruise specialist and travel all over, with clients/friends in groups several times a year. We just returned from a fantastic transatlantic cruise: European Rendezvous Crossing II which began in London at Melrose House. Our stay was a much too short two days prior to the cruise leaving from Dover, England. The Inn was not just incredibly affordable... more
