Kings Boutique Hotel

The hotel is "boutique", ie it has a steep narrow staircase from the public bar (very difficult with suitcases), and our room had a tiny bathroom. The shower was erratic, hot and cold. Directly outside the hotel, under our bedroom, was a creperie stall with attendant odours. The location is perfect if you are on public transport, but extremely difficult with a car.

Good experience. Rooms are above a pub, clean and bed comfortable. Host was a nice guy, even though we arrived around 23:30. Luckily the pub was still open. Bit noisy when the punters left, but no problem.

I stayed as I had surgery nearby next day. Two flights of steep stairs and a shower cubicle which was almost impossible to access. Bed comfortable but room very small shabby not chic and badly lit. Base noise from downstairs pub pretty bad

Perfect location in centre of Hampstead village. Atmospheric and historical pub below, lovely room with the best view of the High Street

It's a pub with rooms, its basic but charming, the pub is a popular all are welcome kind of spot, great location for enjoying Hampstead.

Only complaint was the water power from the shower. Everything else great and the pub below was great

Great for our needs. Wonderful location, the mattress is a bit past its best but what a fabulous place. We especially enjoyed returning from our evening out to the huge singsong taking place in the bar. Obviously a very popular venue and we look forward to returning

The hotel is a unique experience for sure to stay above a pub. If you are looking for a traditional hotel experience skip this one. However, we wanted something a bit unique and we got it. Staff is not overly friendly but I guess that is part of the local charm. Rooms are nice and clean and the pub’s live music on Monday was a special treat. Super cool vibe overall. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Nice old pub with a clean bedroom. All you need!

A very shabby room above a noisy pub. Not worth £115 a night! The shower was freezing cold - I complained and was told that they didn't know about the fault. This is not true - look at the other reviews on Expedia - other guests have complained also!! I would have at least expected a small refund for the cold shower! Nothing! Barely an apology! Don't come here - there are better, cleaner rooms for the same price in the area - and with hot showers and more considerate staff! :( :( :(

Pleasant place to stay ,staff friendly and accommodating. It's a very old building so it's ideal for a one off stay or a couple of nights . Room was clean but the shower needed a clean .

Check in was rude, told me i was too early though i arrived at 2:45 for a 3pm check in. The room was stuffy and was not clean or cleaned. I had to ask for clean towels twice because i stayed two nights and the room was not cleaned after the first night

Very dirty place, the smell from the kitchen got inside the room ( burger). The towels were dirty, the blanket had no cover. Lots of spider webs, the widow was terrible dirty , in the bath there was mould. Everything looked like an improvisation.Wouldn t recomand, sorry. The only good thing is that the subway station is very close.

Nice clean room with friendly staff, quiet at night and hotel only 2 minute walk from Hampstead Tube

Not worth the money felt scruffy smelly and dirty shower rubbish needs a good overhaul curtains filthy very disgusting really great location staff nice

Room was clean with comfortable beds. Did the job we wanted. In the high street so easy to explore Hampstead.

The room was as expected and the bathroom was very clean. There was no AC and no screen in the window. No safe in the room. Bed was uncomfortable with some stains on the bedding, but livable. Unexpected bonus: Kittens in the hallway. Unexpected drawbacks: 1) Hours of loud sounds of clanging pots, pans, silverware between 11pm - 3am after the crepe place downstairs had closed (as someone cleaned up). 2) They would not let me check-out early, despite more than 24 hours notice because I booked through a third party. This leaves me with a negative impression of this business. Plans change when traveling and most accommodations allow for flexibility with 24 hours notice. Hope they rethink this policy.

Rooms need some work to be completed. Electric sockets loose, wallpaper peeling off the walls, shower was mediocre and having to boil the kettle on the floor as there was no other socket for it near the drink making area. Cleaning isn’t one of their forte’s as bedside tables, skirtings and windows were filthy

Don’t expect too much, carpet in room wet, kettle dirty, shower was uncontrollable ( scald or freeze mode). Staff friendly enough and location great. The room we were in needs a refurb.

There was no hot water and no pressure.

Room above a lovely little pub. Clean and comfortable room however the shower wasn’t good at all, freezing cold then boiling hot. Apart from this perfect for a short stay and very close to tube station

I stayed as I had surgery nearby next day. Two flights of steep stairs and a shower cubicle which was almost impossible to access. Bed comfortable but room very small shabby not chic and badly lit. Base noise from downstairs pub pretty bad

We've been coming back for more than a decade now, and love staying at the King Willie. Staff were great, as always. The only slight hiccup was a bit of trouble with the shower, as we lost water pressure a few times through the week, and once (briefly) alltogether. Would still thoroughly recommend though and look forward to staying on our next visit.

Great place to stay only we have stayed here many tims before the disappointment this time was no TRV on the radiator so heating was full on and not pleasant and this morning neither of us could shower as there was no hot water and no plug for sink either . Not sure if we will stay again.

Lovely room but no hot water in shower

The room smelt very strongly of something unpleasant. The staff could have offered more info about wifi and checking out procedure.

I booked a room at the King's Boutique hoping to get close to a town that I enjoy. A unique property in situated in the center of Hampstead. You cannot check in early. Staff is not available. The rooms are nicely decorated and there is a view of the historic Hampstead High street. Unfortunately there is a "crepe war" going on with TWO competing businesses that are in very close proximity to the King Edward IV Pub / Kings Boutique. The awning for one of those crepe stalls is DIRECTLY below the windows to the room I was supposed to occupy. I found the sickly sweet smell of French pancakes overwhelming, but I checked out the heating and the plumbing before I was offered another room. The ordinarily pleasant smell is almost toxic is concentrations that come up from TWO creperies. It will bring tears to your eyes and a twist to your gut. There was no heat in the two rooms I was offered. There is hot water, but it's almost impossible to get the controls right - I checked - stone cold or boiling hot was the final straw that had me begging to cancel. These rooms are unfit for habitation and "the building is three hundred years old" is not a legitimate excuse for the suffering that comes with a holiday to this location. I WAS NOT ALLOWED A REFUND FOR MY THE FIRST NIGHT. Business is business and staff is combative, unyielding, confrontational and rude. DON'T DO IT. There are better options and niceR people who deserve your business. All nearby, too.

Enjoyed our stay for one night. So convenient to the Tube and in the middle of a charming village.

For what you pay you don’t get much. The bed is comfy. The room is tidy enough. But with no breakfast and only one 33cl bottle of sparkling water to share between two people it doesn’t offer as much as a travel lodge. But you can’t fault the location, which is the main driver of the price.

Great for our needs. Wonderful location, the mattress is a bit past its best but what a fabulous place. We especially enjoyed returning from our evening out to the huge singsong taking place in the bar. Obviously a very popular venue and we look forward to returning
