I stayed there for 2 weeks and it was bad for many reasons. 1) The hotel is filthy: During the 2 weeks cleaners didn’t clean my room even once. It was dirty already when I arrived: dirt on windowsill, a lot of mould in the shower, minor dirt on bed sheets. The room is lined with a fitted carpet (so gross by definition!) which wasn’t even thoroughly hoovered. I arrived on Friday. By Tuesday the bins in my room were overflowing. No one empties the bins or gives you toilet paper or new towels unless you explicitly ask or put your full bin in the corridor. They do absolute bare minimum. I also saw a cleaner putting fresh towels on the filthy floor in the corridor. A second set of towels I got was smelly. The stairwell is never hoovered. Needless to say the cleaner never refilled my tea/coffee supplies. My bedsheets were not changed at all. 2) Facilities: a) when I arrived there was no toilet paper in the room and the bathroom light was broken – it doesn’t switch off. I went to the pub to ask. I got a toilet roll and was told to that the cleaner would bring more on Monday but this didn’t happen. The light, I was told, was broken. No explanation why and when it’d be fixed. So I needed to sleep with the bathroom light on at night for 2 weeks. The bathroom fan doesn’t work. b) There’s no proper wifi. There’s only Pub’s feeble connection that most of the time doesn’t work (and is insecure). I had to buy extra data bundle on my phone to use it as a hotspot. c) There’s a kettle covered in lime but there are no sockets anywhere near the kettle so you need to use at the night table stand d) they don’t even provide a glass to put your toothbrush in e) thoughtless arrangements: there’s a mirror but it’s nowhere near a socket that you could use for drying/styling hair f) there’s a desk but there’s no desk chair, only an armchair, so it’s impossible to use the desk for any work g) there’s no proper wardrobe so and very few hangers. One of the hanger is broken – I hurt myself with it and slashed my wrist with it – perhaps this is left on purpose for unhappy guests. 3) terrible customer service and communication: a) since I saw a few reviews complaining that there’s no kettle in the room I emailed the hotel several times to ask about it. I sent around 5 emails/booking.com messages. I’ve never heard back so I bought a travel kettle with me. This extra cost could be avoided if they had replied to me. B) I was asked to pay before even seeing the room. C) I was told I’d be emailed the invoice. I wasn’t. My email remained unanswered. Eventually I had to go the pub and ask for a printout (and toilet paper!). The printout wasn’t even a proper invoice, just details of my reservation. Thank God my company refunded me based on that (over £2500!!). D) Booking.com description doesn’t inform you that the hotel is above a pub so get ready for noisy nights. You’re informed about it only once you’ve put the booking through! Fortunately, they pub closes at 11pm and it’s quite by 11.20pm. Monday-Thursday are quieter. Positives: it’s an excellent location if you need to access Salvation Army buildings or the hospitals. There are convenient connections to many central locations.

This place was done up within the last couple of years and the interior is actually quite nice. It has an unfortunately-positioned cheap-looking quiz machine which dominates the view from the street and makes it look worse than it is. I went to watch the second half of a football match so I wasn't there long but the Diet Coke I ordered was very weak - the postmix needed changing or adjusting. I didn't eat but the pizzas are.progided by Basilico, which are decent when I have had them elsewhere.

Stayed here for a Saturday night in May. Arrived just after 3pm, which was check-in time, only to find that the room hadn't been cleared, so had to wait another 30 mins to check in which was frustrating, given that we had an appointment locally. Were given a lemonade to drink whilst waiting. Friendly staff behind the counter, but no explanation as to what was going on. Finally got to the room, dropped bags and left. Noticed that there was a rubbish bin with someone else's rubbish left on the table which wasn't pleasant. Returned later that night to discover that the the light in the bathroom would not switch off, nor the extractor fan, so it was loud and bright all night and frustrating it just never switched off all night! Didn't sleep at all because of this, nor was there anyone to ask for assistance. Checked out the next morning, but it wasn't clear what the procedure should be - where to leave the key card? The pub itself was closed, so just left it inside the front door. Felt a little odd. Also noticed that people had been smoking in the guest rooms, it stank of smoke and there were empty cigarette packets laying on the floor :-(

PLEASE DO NOT TRUST THIS SHABBY HOTEL! READ ALL THE BAD REVIEWS VERY CAREFULLY!!! My in-laws came to visit London over the easter break. They did the check-in and went to their room. The beddings didn't look fresh, the towels were covered in dirt and the bins were still full. Me, my partner and my in-laws all came back later in the night, in the hope that the room situation will be sorted. When we arrived, the lady at the bar told us they couldn't get the keys to get clean towels! This was just unbelievable. My in-laws decided to stay with us instead and get a refund. We said we would give the key card back when the confirmation of the refund will come through on email. The pub/hotel ‘owner’ (who was surprisingly around the whole time) got involved and completely escalated the situation, threatening to call the police! We are now still waiting to get a refund. Please avoid this horrible place at all costs. This is by far the WORST service I have experienced in London. For a better alternative, please go to Church Street Hotel which is a couple of minutes away, my dad stayed there a couple of months ago and he had a great time.

Our local has been refurbed and reborn. For years, the neighbourhood had abandoned it as it had become a place of despair. NOW IT"S BACK and so are the regulars... and new faces too. Like, Johnathon the manager who is thoughtful and keen on supporting the community. Now... onto the important bit. The drinks. A pint of Fosters is 3.75. Yes, you read that right. It's not my tipple of choice, but all the drinks are massively subsidised by Craft Union. It's the perfect spot in a cost of living crisis (and it's a gorgeous sun trap in the late afternoon). And right next to Kings, where those NHS workers could probably do with a cheap vino while decompressing. There isn't food but Johnathon is happy for you to Deliveroo or bring your own! So happy this lynchpin of Denmark Hill is back.

It's back. The George Canning is well and truly back on great form. Taken over by Craft Union and manager Johnathon, they've made this local spot the place where the community wants to hang out once more. This is due in no small part to their friendly service and what could happily be described as pre-millenium prices. Come visit and see for yourself.

Two cask beers on handpump when I visited: Doom Bar and Timothy Taylor's Landlord. And the Landlord is a bargain at £3.35 for a pint. Lots of outdoor seating most of it covered. Four screens showing sport. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Wasn’t expecting much as we were on a tight schedule and just needed to find something decent in between Tate visit and train home. When I saw the price of the specials board we nearly left, thankfully the normal menu was a bit kinder, so gave it a go. Really glad that we did, some really nice wines by the glass (With some good commentary and biog of the wines), very good steak tartare, which would’ve been very good on its own, but came on a bed of dauphinoise potato (or similar kind of thing anyway) and Parmesan grated on top. For a starter, the steak tartar and anchovies were pretty substantial and I was wondering if we had ordered too much with the pasta and Main to come. (anchovies were terrific, and the bread they came with was good with about half a pack of really lovely butter.) rigatoni with oxtail ragu Next, very good, Glass of house Merlot, made me want to be in the mountains. Then we had home-made meatloaf with house salad. The meatloaf was probably under selling itself with that name, (I am sure there must be a more fancy Italian name for it?) it was first class. Tiramisu was (by this time) unsurprisingly good. Okay, the bill was a bit heavy, and we hadn’t intended to spend or eat quite this much, however in this postcode you could probably spend the same or more and have nowhere near as good a meal. (Based on what we ate, I would probably imagine a starter and glass of wine would be just right for a weekday lunch?) very glad we came here, very pleasantly surprised overall. (The owner chucked in a couple of amaretti at the end, too, nice touch 🥳)
