Pre-marathon stay

Stayed here as I was participating in the 2025 marathon. The room was lovely and the service received was very good. The road was a bit busy outside all through the night but that cannot be helped. Would definitely stay again.

A lovely quirky place to stay above a nice pub. Shared facilities but clean and of good quality. Lovely bedroom, incredibly comfy bed. Although breakfast wasn't part of it, the host left cereal, croissants and milk and yoghurt in the fridge. There was facilities to make coffee and tea too. Would happily stay again.

Stayed at the angel of bow for a couple of nights while visiting an event in Victoria park. On the first night we arrived late around 11pm checking inn and was still made to feel welcome and shown to our room quickly. Clean and comfortable rooms and shared bathrooms and would definitely return if in the area and would recommend to family and friends!

A very beautiful accommodation in a very good community. Staff were very helpful, transport links were good. Breakfast was different but good different. Tea and coffee facilities included a coffee machine with capsules which was a nice touch. The decor was very boutique and made the room look striking and pleasant. Definitely worth every penny I paid and I would recommend this accommodation. Congratulations to the owners, they have something very good.

Fantastic welcome and quirky pub..loved our stay.

We absolutely loved this place, the staff and owners so welcoming. The best home made chips and weloved the quirky decor.2 very small minuses wewere 2 but had only 1 mug and 1 towel. The breakfast was fruit and yoghurt and some cake which my husband was looking forward to a fry up lol. However the location for the Abba Arena and the pub itself more than made up for it. Also fantastically friendly locals so warm and helpful.

Cozy, affordable and great location!

I chose this place instead of a hotel just because I liked the decor of the rooms in the pictures, I have to say they don't disappoint! The place is wonderful, super unique decor and probably the coziest place I've ever stayed in. The bed was soooo comfortable I actually stayed in one day. Everything is very clean and the staff is very nice. I'd totally stay here again. The location is good, there are two tube stations about 10 mins away. I recommend going to Devon's Cafe for all-day breakfast, that place saved my life! And as a tip, they have a vegetarian English breakfast option 😍 it's like two or three blocks away from the b&b.

Nice place

Bed was a bit soft. Nice quirky room and decoration. Bit mean with the teabags (only 1 in the room). Not too obvious when booking that it was a shared bathroom. It is mentioned but I'd expect it to be clearer. Food in pub was great. Continental breakfast was interesting. Used as close enough to ABBA Voyage and transfers were easy. Would happily come back.
