    It’s a little noisy on Friday and Saturday night because of the pub downstairs. The venue does warn about this but be sure to ask for a room in the back if you’re staying the weekend.

    Nice old inn. Near a lot of cafes, pubs and two tube stations.

    Never been a fan of their food menu but that's just personal. Quality of food is good but expensive.

    Nice hotel, excellent rooms with big comfy bed. Nice bar and excellent breakfasts. Parking onsite

    I feel the duvet & pillows would benefit an update.

    Easy access from the tube station with accommodating staff. Very peaceful given the attachment to the pub but you can’t hear a thing. Cute finishing touches.

    Big mini-bar, took up a lot of room.

    Beautiful pub and rooms in the middle of Clapham Common. Such a beautiful area and has been renovated recently. Room was quaint and cosy, with great views of the common. Quiet, considering pubs are just below. Amazing food onsite as well, the Sunday Roast was amazing. Great base to explore London without staying in central. Enjoyed the small touches like magazines/newspaper. Would definitely stay here again next time I am back.

    The number of stairs to our room wasn’t great due to one guest being disabled but the staff were happy to help with getting luggage up to the room and back down again. Bin men woke us up really early emptying the glass bottles from the pub below. Unavoidable but a heads up would have been appreciated!

    The room was cosy and had everything we needed, the beds were really comfortable and everything was clean and tidy. Staff were super friendly and couldn’t do enough to assist us, especially Mr Nagi. Everyone working there seemed to genuinely enjoy and take pride in their work and they showed a genuine interest in guest’s experience of both the Windmill and London itself. Honesty bar was well-stocked, with a good variety of treats. Close to both Clapham South underground and Clapham Common underground it was really easy to get to and to locate!
