Latest 5 reviews of The Sumner Hotel
Gorgeous, Elegant, Friendly, Clean, Quite Hotel
Highly recommended. We stayed at The Sumner on New Years Eve Dec 07 / Jan 09 and its a gorgeous small friendly hotel right in the heart of 'old fashioned' London. When you look out of your room window Its like stepping on to the Mary Poppins film set. Gorgeous rooms and lobby area. Clean, friendly, quite hotel with security entry into the main building. Nice cozy warm rooms for a wintery new years eve. Perfect distance to Hyde Park/Oxford street and tube stations. Just perfect all round! Will stay there again and again.

Great find for a repeat traveler and a London 1st-timer
I have been to London twice on "college buddy" trips ten years ago. This time (March 2009) I was there with my wife. Previously I had stayed at hostels; but finally chose a hotel this go around.
What a find! I am a member of Best Western points club, but could not find a favorable location based on other Trip Advisor reviews and price. We stumbled on The Sumner through a ton of online searches.
We arrived earlier in the day than expected and our room was already to go. Marble Arch area is great. In actuality, this location is between Marble Arch and St. Christopher's part of town. Very easy (few blocks) walk to Marble Arch tube station.
Room was great (ours was on the back side and quiet). Bathroom was large compared to many of the London bathrooms. Electrical outlets were configured to all types.
We learned that the owner recently purchased the building and the one next to it, combined the two, and gutting everything to create the hotel. Everythnig is new, modern, and very very clean. Because everything was gutted and built from scratch, the rooms are large and "make sense" (unlike many hotel rooms in GB that retro-fit an old apartment into three hotel rooms). Although the hotel was filled, we rarely saw any other guests. My wife and I are still amazed at how little the cost was too!
We will always stay here,

GOOD VALUE
We stayed at the Sumner in May of 2009. W|e had a large room (15 sq) overlooking the front of the hotel. The large windows opened up to the street but unfortunately there were no screens so we had to close them in the evening. It was a nice surprise that North American electrical appliances worked in the already adapted plugs. The room was comfortable, the bathroom adequate but extremely small. A small bar fridge would greatly have enhanced our visit as ice was not readily available. The breakfast was excellent considering this was part of the already reasonable hotel rate. The coffee was great - this was in fact the only place we had a decent coffee in England and the selection for breakfast was lovely. The only negative comments I would have would be to do with the foyer area - it looks very unwelcoming - dark hallway - leading to back of townhouse - would have been better to change the sitting area at the front into the reception area. The staff were efficient, and helpful but not very outgoing/friendly - perhaps this was due to a language problem. Previous reviewers were correct in that it is a marvelous location and only a five minute walk to Marble Arch tube station - there are two convenience stores on the way to the tube to pick up refreshments (beer and wine as well). There are many restaurants in the neighbourhood but we found at the end of May the lineups were quite long. We did find a wonderul Italian restaurant one block south and a few blocks west of the Sumner called the Biagis Restaurant - the food was wonderful, the service excellent and the price very reasonable. The airport transportation we arranged thru the Sumner was prompt and efficient - good value - no hassles. All is all, we would recommend the Sumner and would stay there again.

Cute townhouse hotel in Marble Arch
We really enjoyed our stay at the Sumner. We upgraded to a deluxe queen room which we honestly thought was a bit small for what we were expecting, but we are used to the huge USA rooms. The rooms had great furnishings including a very comfortable bed, desk, armoire, flat screen TV and large bathroom. The continental breakfast is quite good, especially as free breakfast at hotels are not good at all. They had eggs, selection of meats, cereals, and more with great service. The hotel is located about two or three blocks from the underground, making this a very great location. It is in a very safe neighborhood with lots of local shops and eateries. I'd highly recommend this place to anyone staying in London - the staff provides excellent service, the rooms are very clean and a decent size, and it is located in a great location - all for a good price.

bring earplugs
The hotel was in a great location, check in was efficient and friendly, the room was lovely.
Traffic noise was noticeable but not too bad. The people walking around upstairs were the most heavily footed, restless and inconsiderate we have encountered.
Every night for our 3 night stay they paced heavily back and forth for what seemed like
most of the night. I might add that I have a partial hearing impairment so most
hotel noise is not bothersome but this was an exception. Maybe we were unlucky
but I think the floors are not very soundproof. I would not stay here again
the Luna Simone is a much better deal and we have had good rest here on previous stays.
