Review of The Zetter Restaurant and Rooms

27 Sep 07, 16:38

Amazing Attention to Detail 5*

The Zetter wowed me from the moment I clicked on it's website it just shouts 'cool' but in a really discreet way (so more of a whispa really).

The Zetter is the type of hotel that is even better in the flesh. It has all the cool design quirks featured in the photos on the website but with the added punch of it's buzzing atmosphere.

The rooms are effortlessly cool, with Cole & Son wall paper adorning the exposed brick walls on strategically placed boards. However it is not the main design of this place that makes it so great, it is the attention to detail. The rooms are decked with knitted hot water bottles and Penguin books. The lounge chairs are covered with Tricia Guild (or very good imitation) fabric.

The best bit being the lighting, the rooms have pink mood lighting hidden within the fitted fixtures giving the rooms a real tranquil feel without being tacky.

What more can I say I am a real advocate for the hotel. It's unassuming as opposed to being pretentious, which is priceless to me.

Best thing about where I live It is very close to London. It also has a lot of has trams and trees!
Worst thing about where I live It's not London and sometimes it's scary. It also has the most boring hight street ever known to man.
