Located in the trendy Clerkenwell district of central London, The Rookery features delightful rooms adorned with elegant period decor and complimentary WiFi. Just 100 meters from Farringdon Railway Station, this intimate hotel is also only a 5-minute stroll from Barbican Tube Station.

Each individually designed and air-conditioned room is furnished with sumptuous antique pieces and artwork, and includes a flat-screen LCD TV. The luxurious en-suite bathrooms are equipped with land&water toiletries and a hairdryer.

In the mornings, guests at The Rookery can enjoy breakfast in the stylish conservatory or have it delivered to their room for a more private experience. Breakfast options include freshly baked croissants. For lunch and dinner, guests can choose from room service or explore a variety of nearby restaurants and bars.

Housed within a row of 18th-century buildings, The Rookery retains many of its original features. Guests can unwind in the library or by the cozy open fire in the oak-paneled lounge. Situated near Smithfield Market and just on the edge of London’s financial Square Mile, The Rookery is a little over a mile from the South Bank’s Tate Modern gallery, with the magnificent St. Paul’s Cathedral only half a mile away.

Couples particularly appreciate the location — they assigned it a rating of 9.4 for a trip for two.
