Yuck
Pokey hotel. Lift doesn’t work. Booked a shower\tub combination but got a shower without a tub. Carpets in the room were filthy. Bathroom stunk like an open sewer.

Not perfect but deserving of 5 Stars for the staff, the Georgian charm, and the location. The staff was very accommodating and helpful. The lift wasn’t working (apparently hasn’t been working for a while) but our bags were carried up for us. We needed a cab a couple of times and asked the desk manager to arrange it and it was there right on time. Nice coffee shop around the corner. Marble Arch bus stop 4 minute walk away. When we return to London it will be the Sumner again!

Sadly the lift was broke and I was at the top of the building, but the staff were a great help. There was an issue with the heating in the room, but the staff tried their best to heat up the room, it wasn’t as warm as I’d of liked and was very noisy.

This was our third time staying at the Sumner. The elevator was out of order the whole time we were there. I hope they get it fixed. The room was very comfortable and clean. I really like the quiet neighborhood and proximity to the tube.
