What guests think

Henrietta Experimental is praised for its central Covent Garden location, friendly staff, and stylish, comfortable rooms, though reviews note small room sizes with limited storage, occasional hot water or HVAC issues, and accessibility quirks from split buildings.

The pedestrian setting makes it highly walkable to theatres, museums and the Piccadilly line, but vehicles cannot pull up to the door and some guests found the entrance hard to spot. Many report surprisingly quiet rooms at night, though a few mention street or church-bell noise and occasional internal soundproofing issues. Breakfast, cocktails and the restaurant are widely enjoyed, with occasional notes about limited breakfast items or a bar closure. Best suited to travelers who prioritize walkability and character.

Upgraded older buildings in unique Covent Gardens area. Not all rooms are accessible by elevator without having to negotiate some stairs. Good breakfast at attached Henri Restaurant. Some rooms are across street in annex. Rooms are not spacious. Street is closed every day from 11:00am to 11:00pm so then can only get about a one block walk to hotel by vehicle.

The attention to detail here was incredible. So many small touches that made tue experience exemplary! Great staff and a double headed shower that was amazing! Bedding was also super high quality and very comfortable. In the heart of Covent Garden. Look for Henri sign for entrance. The doorway is otherwise hard to find.

We enjoyed our stay at The Henrietta Hotel. Unfortunately, the hot water was not working for a large portion of our stay, so we weren’t able to take full advantage of the huge bathroom area. Many extras were offered. Free drinks in the downstairs bar. Lovely biscuits. The area feels safe, very close to theatres and a wide range of dining choices.

Location was great, noise wasn’t bad considering we were in the middle of Covent Garden, but, we were across the road from the main hotel on the 3rd floor without a working elevator. The room was tiny and though that's not unusual in London, I would hope that cleaning was efficient every day and I have reason to question that. The delivery of cookies every day is very nice, but when water isn't replenished and dirty glasses weren't removed and replaced, its a bit bizarre. Bar staff across the road were excellent and efficient despite some loud and obnoxious customers. In all, great location, but a lot of money for such a small room

This location is very busy and noisy. We had a lovely room that overlooked the church courtyard nearby. The place was lovely but had a few quirks. First of all, they put a limit on how hot the water can get in the shower so we didn’t have hot water for 2 out of six days. The light switches did not work properly. There was no iron in the room. Finally, the heater/air conditioner was terrible. You could have in air or heat and setting the temperature meant nothing. A bit stuffy and either too warm or too cold. We would stay here again as it was a great central location in the city and we loved our room

The hotel was in a great location. However, our experience was less than we expected. The room was extremely small with no dresser or closet space making it uncomfortable for a week’s stay. They provided a rolling rack and were limited on sourcing extra hangers. The room was at 16 degrees and was not cool leading us to believe the air was not working despite our constant questioning. We awoke one morning to no hot water as well as one day we returned to our room at 4pm hoping to relax and the room had not been serviced yet. The staff seemed miserable and while we were cheery each day we were not returned with a cheerio. I would not recommend unless you are traveling for a short stay and love the convenience of being in the heart of covent garden.

Our room was upgraded upon arrival. It was a lovely room that overlooked a church garden. To have this in the center of London was spectacular. Nice deep tub. The linens were top notch. Covent Garden around the corner, tons of pubs and restaurants. Don’t miss Cinnamon Bazaar, it’s one of our favorites.

This little hotel is wonderful. The staff is the jewel in this crown!! From the costumer facing staff (particularly Daniela and Sebastiano) was excellent and helpful. We needed to switch rooms because the original one faced the street and was a bit too loud for us. They took care of everything and moved our stuff while we were out enjoying our day. The second room was in the building across the street with windows facing the church courtyard and it was perfect. Comfortable beds, nice bathrooms. Housekeeping was very attentive and came every day. Really enjoyed our stay.

This wonderful boutique little hotel had everything we needed and was in an amazing location. We walked tot the theater in SoHo one night, to all the major tourist sites the next day. There are coffee shops and places to eat everywhere and the area is super lively at night but the room was quiet. The staff was friendly and helpful. The only minor difficulty was lack of drawers and places to store things in the room but as each room is different, it may have just been in the room we stayed in.

The hotel is on a lovely cobblestone street right behind Covent Garden-lovely area full of nice restaurants and stores. Be aware that there are no vehicles allowed on that street so you have to walk about 100 ft to get to hotel. The hotel is in a very narrow townhouse with what seems to be a nice restaurant on the ground floor. For whatever reason, the front door is left open so if it’s cold there’s a draft that runs all the way up the stairs to the hotel area.the rooms are small and at least my room had windows that were not fully sealed so there was a draft in the room. Also closest tubes are a 7-8 min walk from hotel.

Very clean, comfortable bed, staff was SO kind, they gave us a room upgraded, which was a pleasant surprise, bathroom was huge and lovely. I felt the street noise was just fine for such a busy area. Inside the hotel was another thing, thin walls and ceiling. Can hear the people above us pound around on the floor, thankfully it would eventually end. People let their doors slam, one of our neighbors was in and out around 1:00-1:30am, then again around 6:00-6:30am, SO ridiculous. I do understand they give us a tiny little handle on the doors but do a better job by NOT letting your door slam shut, not the hotels fault of course. Breakfast was bland, we ordered once, not again. Some of the electrical outlets did not work, the warming bars in the bathroom did not work, some switches didn’t turn anything on or off. It was a lot going around the room checking the light switches and outlets, we gave up but lack of working outlets made our night table crowded, we made it work. Not a fan of the lights in general, we wanted JUST the lamps on but in order to turn those on we would need all of the lights on, the track light above the bed was it’s own switch though. Felt like the a/c was in poor working condition, we stayed in London during an unusually warm time, however we stayed in other hotels during that same week with a/c and this was the only hotel that ran a little too warm for my taste.
