Some rooms are cramped and musty
The main thing going for Huttons Hotel is undoubtedly its superb location. The property is situated 10 minutes on foot from Victoria transport hub and within walking distance of various central London attractions. Rooms, however, are a bit lackluster and thin on furnishings and amenities, and some are cramped and even a little musty. Hotel facilities don't offer much beyond breakfast, but it is a pretty good value for central London. Potential guests may want to check out other budget options on the same road, as there are plenty.
Scene
Set in a typical Victorian neo-classical terrace with modern interiors
Housed in a Victorian terrace on a busy London street, the facade of the Huttons Hotel is not much different from the slew of similar lodging options surrounding it. Stepping past a pair of neo-classical columns typical of the area's architecture, guests are met with sleek glass paneling, polished tile floors, and jet-black furnishings that comprise a monochrome and metallic reception area. A simple, modern corridor leads to a tiny, wood-paneled elevator that services the hotel's four floors. Clientele are largely those who want the convenience of a central London location without paying through the nose for it.
Location
Located in central London with easy access to the Victoria transport hub
Huttons Hotel is situated in central London and within a 10-minute walk of the Victoria transport hub comprised of coach, train, and underground stations. Its city center location means various of the capital's attractions are within walking distance -- it's about 20 minutes on foot to Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, and the Houses of Parliament. It's particularly convenient for those flying into London Gatwick Airport, which connects directly to Victoria Station via a 30-minute train trip.
Rooms
Modest rooms with flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi
The Huttons Hotel has 56 rooms, all of which are simply decorated with sparse furnishings, parquet flooring, and wall paneling -- the finish is no-frills and daylight in some rooms is limited. Amenities are equally scant, as rooms have flat-screen TVs, free Wi-Fi, and coffee/tea kettles, but not much else. Renovated bathrooms are modern and clean, though toiletries are limited.
Features
Continental or full English breakfast served each morning
The hotel is very light on facilities. The only major feature is a bright, modern breakfast room, where a continental breakfast is served free of charge. A full English breakfast is also offered, albeit for a fee. Soft drinks are available for purchase at reception, where tourist information can also be found.
