“My assessment of The Sanctuary House Hotel finds its position in Westminster to be truly exceptional, placing you steps from Westminster Abbey and Parliament, with Big Ben visible from the street. The pub downstairs is a pleasant surprise, serving well-regarded fish and chips and offering a comfortable spot for breakfast, while the rooms themselves are noted for their clean, crisp linens and thoughtful amenities. It strikes me as a place that prioritizes a comfortable stay right in the heart of the city's historical core.”
