Miller’s Hotel

really lovely, had a fantastic stay and the staff where great

Stayed at Miller’s Residence for 2 nights and absolutely loved it. You would miss it from the street if you didn’t know where to look for the little buzzer; very unassuming. Each room is themed after a writer. There are poems and pictures on the walls, antiques and odd pieces of furniture everywhere. Mixture of modern and new. Bathrooms are completely modern and have all the ammenities. The people are laid back and act more like a bed and breakfast than a swanky hotel. There is an open bar in the common room which is full of more antiques and artsy things than you could ever focus on after a bottle of Miller’s own gin (help yourself at the bar). Complimentary continental breakfast included in the room price. Maida Vale and the surrounding areas are very safe and pleasant to walk around. Miller’s Residence is currently undergoing renovation. Can’t wait to stay there again!

Oh this is ridiculous to find a place this good and this eccentric in the centre of London. I lived and worked in Soho for twenty years before moving to Devon about three years ago; and I thought I knew just about all the cool places in London. Then I came back last weekend for a Talking Heads gig and found this place on recommendation. For the same price as a bland corporate hotel room you get all this. Rooms utterly stuffed full of antiques, a free bar at night, (thus encouraging you not to take the piss!) totally cool staff, central location and each room totally unique. And all hidden behind the mysterious red door. It was so good i did not even make it down for breakfast, and what an utterly civilised time breakfast is laid out until!
Totally brilliant and i am never staying anywhere else again in London if I can help it.

OH MY GOD! THIS PLACE IS INCREDIBLE!
And I don’t say that lightly — please go to the website and look for yourself.
I stayed here last September with my sis and two friends for the weekend because we had booked to see Prince in the O2 centre and I didn’t think for one minute that the experience in the hotel would match or come cose to the Prince gig, but it bloody well did and then some!
The hotel is swish and swanly and filled with gorgeous antiques and the rooms are lavish and oppulent and make you feel like a kingor a queen. It’s £150 a night per room but the beds are big enough to share if you like the people in your group.
Every evening at six the guests are invited down to the lounge for complimentary drinks. That means that the drinks are FREE! You can just help yourself from the drinks cabinet! And after that, say if you get in from a night out and want to party on, you can help yourself to the cabinet as long as you replace the next day. For real!
When I stayed, there was a party going on when me and the girlies got back from our night out and we were invited to join — everyone there is so friendly — and we had an absolute blast. Evan Dando from the lemonheads was there! Got to bed at 11 the next morning!
The Sunday night, after the Prince gig, the night porter got us a Pizza menu and we orderd take out at 1am! We shared with the porter because he had been so good, and sat up in the oppulent lounge, chowing down on pizza and listening to Prince’s new album on the music system (which you can use to your heart’s content unless you’re stupid and turn it up really loud).
Also, breakfast is a help yorself continental affair which stays out until around mid day, so there’s no need to get up early.
I can’t say enough good things about this hotel. If you want to or have to stay in London, you’d be MAD not to give Miller’s a ring and see if there’s a room free.
