Draycott House

We arrived from Canada on a Sunday morning in a car provide by Draycott House.It took a while for someone to answer the door but I believe she was on an upper floor housekeeping.

Our resevation was for a one bedroom flat but we were given a three bedroom on the second floor.It was explained that the occupants of our original room wished to stay longer. This was very spacious and had a nice reception room on the front, opening onto a small balcony. The kitchen was well equiped(washer dryer,microwave,dishwasher and good utensils) and compact but was quite workable.Most of our meals were prepared here.A basket of groceries were provided so that shopping could be deferred until refreshed.

There were two bathrooms so we each used one of them, this sped things up in the morning. Each bathroom was equiped with a bathtub and shower with ample hot water,towels and soap.

A telephone was provided (you paid for all calls made) with an extension in the bedroom,and television,dvd player etc.

Our primary purpose was to visit The Chelsea Flower Show a couple of times which was within easy walking distance, even though there is a London bus stop just outside the door.Travel into the city was very easy with the tube station (Sloane Sq.) close by.

A very enjoyable stay, our previous choice was 55 Park Lane which no longer does short stays. Draycott House was a plus for us.
