Great location. Quirky interior design. Lovely breakfast
United KingdomUnique decor and atmosphere - wonderful staff - excellent cocktails - in a quiet location with wonderful restaurants close by. Our room was upgraded - highly recommend Room 6!
United KingdomLocation was perfect for the Saddlers Wells theatre. The hotel is really odd, we loved it. The staff were lovely, polite but not subservient. A really good and unusual stay, We stayed in the apartment which is very comfortable, and the square is a nice location for people watching. We had afternoon tea - perfect.
United KingdomVery quirky and good locations for what we needed.
United KingdomSmall hotel , I have been in a few rooms and it can get really eclectic so depends on whether you like that or not.
Francewe’d been to the townhouse for afternoon tea and thought it would be a lovely choice for our wedding night stay. The location is quaint, located on a cobbled street. The interior decor is warm and cosy. We had contacted the hotel weeks in advance to see if we could our room slightly earlier and they did everything they could to cater for this request.
United KingdomThe atmosphere, the decor, the design, the chilled relaxed vibe and the wonderful cool staff who were so helpful and fun.
United KingdomAmazing decor. Loved all the artwork and novelties. The cocktail lounge was great and the staff were fantastic.
United KingdomWe enjoyed the intimate, quirky character of the townhouse
United KingdomFantastic staff and service, comfortable homely surroundings, comfortable rooms great REN bath products, we were travelling with a baby and there was a great complimentary baby basket with products and lovely touches like bedtime books and no slip bath mat, made us and our baby feel so welcome in a space which is essentially a very grown up boutique hotel

The Zetter Townhouse Clerkenwell is a 13-bedroom Georgian townhouse with an award-winning cocktail lounge located just on the historic St John's Square. This eclectic property feels more like the private residence of an eccentric (and fabulous!) Great Aunt than a hotel - we like to call her Aunt Wilhelmina! Each of our rooms is completely unique, featuring different, bold shades of heritage colours and vivacious antique pieces. Every corner of the property is crammed full of collectibles, taxidermy and ‘Victoriana’ from Aunt Wilhelmina’s world travels, and as soon as guests enter the light blue front door they feel as if they've stumbled upon something secret and special. The cocktail lounge is a destination in itself. A collaboration between The Zetter Group and Tony Conigliaro (Drinks Factory and 69 Colebrooke Row), each recipe features bespoke ingredients developed and made by the bar team in the lab. Stuffed full of oddities and curios, with an open fire crackling in the grate, the relaxed, sitting room is equally suited to a lazy afternoon indulging on Afternoon Tea as it is a night of uproarious revelry.
