Hazlitt's

על המקום הזה Hazlitt's

Hazlitt's occupies three Georgian townhouses on Frith Street — a narrow Soho street one block from Old Compton Street — and operates as London's most distinctive small hotel. The building dates from 1718; William Hazlitt, the Romantic essayist, died in one of its rooms in 1830, and the hotel is named for him. Each of the 30 rooms is individually designed with antique furniture, oil paintings and Victorian bath fittings — there is no gym, no spa, no conference room, no corporate infrastructure of any kind. The hotel is operated on the principle that guests come to Soho to use Soho, not to sit in a hotel lobby. LGBTQ+ guests have been welcomed here for decades; the hotel's Soho location, independent ownership and literary-bohemian character make it naturally aligned with the community. Not cheap — Soho prices apply — but there is nothing else in London quite like waking up in a 1718 townhouse 90 seconds from Old Compton Street.
