“I found this tavern more than just a place to sleep; it's a launchpad for exploring real London, with Deptford market practically on the doorstep. The kitchenettes add a welcome flexibility, especially for families, and those city views mixed with what felt like cottage comfort? Unexpectedly charming. I'd say that if you appreciate the buzz of a local market and want to feel a bit more like a Londoner, this could be your spot.”
