“My exploration of Counting House reveals a truly impressive London stay, particularly given its City of London location, placing key transport hubs within easy walking distance. The spacious rooms, consistently noted for their comfort and cleanliness, extend to well-appointed bathrooms, and the thoughtful inclusion of complimentary drinks adds a welcome touch. What stands out is the integration with the historic pub below; it lends a unique atmosphere to the already pleasant breakfast experience, further enhanced by the genuinely helpful staff.”
