Elegance of the past, made real!
The Idlewyld Hotel is a charming venture if one is looking for something different from the sterile look and feeling of more the contemporary hotel. Elegance of an era now past is everywhere but it is amplified by an excellent, friendly staff; this best describes your first and lasting impression. If you are in need of a quiet time away, then look no further because, not only was the stay much more than we expected, the adventure will be memorable.

Room was very average, very warm even when you adjust the thermostat to 17 degrees, it was very warm. Breakfast very limited and quality average comparing what the rooms charge, Jacqui was an excellent hostess at breakfast on our second day stay. Overall expected much more.

This venue has been on my bucket list for a while so when I had a chance to come to London for a friends' wedding, I took the opportunity to stay at this beautiful Inn. The staff were welcoming and very helpful. The room was very comfortable for our 3 day stay. Parking was not a problem. The buffet breakfast was included with our stay. The items were fresh, but there was no change in the breakfast offerings each day. I would have like to see some hot cereals and/or waffles etc. Overall my husband and I had a relaxing stay and would recommend this venue to couples looking for a quiet, relaxing stay, away from the downtown area. I highly recommend the Relaxation Massage - this was definitely worth it.

Beautiful Hotel
Came to London for my wife’s birthday and this place is fantastic! It was clean and the rooms were spacious. The courtyard was beautiful and relaxing. The breakfast was the best I’ve ever had at any hotel I’ve ever stayed at! (I stay at 30-40 hotels a year). I’m so glad I booked this stay. Loved every minute of it. Wish we would have checked out the spa but maybe next time. I also want to say, the neighborhood it’s located in is great! We went for a walk and it is definitely a safe area. Lots of others were on nightly walks as well.
