10/10 doesn’t seem good enough for this absolute gem! Everything about our stay was really special, and I can’t wait to come back! We booked this room as we were attending a concert in Alexandra Palace. This property was quite close (about 2miles), and it also seemed the best place in the area (the standard of other properties close by didn’t seem too great). Upon arrival to The Brownswood we were greeted by the sweetest employee, who took her time to thoroughly show us around the property, the key operating system and the breakfast room in preparation for the next day. She then showed us to our room, and What a room it was! It was spotlessly clean with everything we might need for our stay, including toiletries, a well stocked tea tray, lovely fluffy towels, and the reason I booked the room… a huge bath at the end of the bed! We went off to the concert and returned back to the pub about 11.30pm, the pub was still open but the kitchen had closed so we asked the landlord if we could please order food, he was more than happy to allow this, and provided us with plates and cutlery to use. Furthermore, he asked if he could get us any drinks, and when I asked for a cup of tea (which they don’t usually do in the bar) he went out of his way to find me some teabags so he could make sure I got a cup of tea! I had requested a late check out, as we wanted a lazy morning the next day, and I was delighted to be given an extra hour in the room. So the next morning, after a full nights sleep in the most comfy bed, we decided to go down to the breakfast room and ask if we could take a few bits up to the room. The lady could not have been more helpful, she promptly got a tray and plates with cutlery, so we could have our leisurely, lazy breakfast upstairs. The breakfast layout, and the food that was had was lovely, all fresh and clearly good quality.

Very good location for the tube (about 15 minute walk from Manor House tube station), local shops, cafes and park. Loved the room, quirky, well decorated boutique style, great bathroom with a power shower. All very clean. Our room was on the side, and quiet. You do need to tackle flights of stairs to get to the room, so not good if your mobility is limited. Continental breakfast was a great selection, toast, pastries, fresh fruit and fresh homemade yoghurt pots and granola. Deeta was so friendly and helpful.

Maybe for the pub to have been open to serve lunch, but not a big deal as there are so many places around to eat.

We arrived later then the check in time and we where still able to get our key and to our room very easily , the cleaning staff and others where all very nice and helpful. The beds were massive and comfy as, it was hot weather and very hot in there but they provided you with a top quality fan. They have everything you need if you have forgotten it , good smelling shower gel and shampoo , etc . The shower was brilliant too. Just all round good and very nice stay. Would definitely stay again !

I loved the room-- super spacious and with a lovely bustling view of the street below. It also had a dresser (!) which I love on trips, a desk to work at, and a very comfortable bed. I loved the beer garden and had a great dinner while I was there. Breakfast was well-appointed and in a gorgeous room.

The only thing I didn't like was that the mirror faced the bed-- this is an old-school superstition of mine and I think several other people have it too. I always cover the mirror or turn it away. Also, it would have been nice to have shampoo/conditioner/etc in large bottles instead of single-use, but I understand that that is not always possible.

This is a hidden gem, one of the nicest places I've stayed in London. The rooms are over a pub but there's no noise (only noise from the traffic/busy road), our twin room was much bigger than I expected, and so comfortable. Gorgeous bathroom too with Rituals products. There was complimentary still and sparkling water, enough tea and coffee for a week, hairdryer and iron...nothing was missing. Breakfast was a continental option and excellent. We ate in the bar 1 night, it's a small menu but the food was yummy. We'd have eaten there the second night too if we could have! Such a lovely relaxed setting. And the staff...the welcome was so friendly, she showed us around while our bags were brought up to our room, and nothing was too much trouble. They have an app to make lives easier too if anything is needed for the room. It seems they've thought of everything to help customers feel more relaxed and comfortable there. Overall, this really is a fabulous place to stay, we'll absolutely be back! 10 mins walk from Manor Hoise tube on the Picadilly line, and 12 mins walk from Finsbury Park concert venue. Thanks to everyone at the Brownswood for making our stay so perfect!

There's nothing I can put here. If I had to say something, the location of 10 mins walk from the tube..but that's not even a negative. And there are bus stops close by in any case...

We recently had the pleasure of staying at The Brownswood Hotel, conveniently located near Clissold Park in the charming area of Hackney. This hotel proved to be a superb choice, particularly as we were attending a wedding party at nearby Clissold House. The guest rooms at The Brownswood are well-appointed, offering a blend of comfort and style that made our stay exceptionally pleasant. Each room is meticulously designed to ensure that guests feel both pampered and at home. One of the highlights of our stay was the hotel’s friendly pub. It boasts an excellent selection of food and drink, making it a perfect spot for dining alfresco, especially since the weather was cooperative during our visit. The quality of the meals was outstanding, with a menu that catered to a variety of tastes and preferences. Breakfast at The Brownswood was another delightful experience. Served with high-quality ingredients including fresh sourdough bread, proper butter, a variety of fruits, cereals, ham, cheese, and yogurts, it was the ideal start to our day. The attention to detail and quality was evident in every dish served. The staff at The Brownswood deserves a special mention. From the warm welcome by Alex upon our arrival to the exceptional service provided by the lovely woman who served our breakfast each morning, the staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and memorable. Their friendliness and readiness to assist with any request made our experience even more special. Additionally, the hotel's location is extremely convenient. With a bus stop just outside, we were only four stops away from Finsbury Park Station, providing easy access to explore the city further. Overall, The Brownswood Hotel is a gem in Hackney, combining excellent amenities with first-rate service and a prime location. It's an ideal choice for anyone looking for a comfortable, enjoyable stay in

Nothing.

We loved how tje property was connected with the tube! The staff is very approachable, and kudos to DITA! Loved her so much! Very polite and approachable, even offered us and early breakfast since we had to leave early! Room is spacious and clean! Bed is comfortable! Prices in the pub are also quite good! Oh and the garden is the best part of the whole property! We were sitting around even after the pub closed!

Great staff / food - room spotless and lovely despite being busy pub and by a main road the room was quiet and lovely All of the staff as always were lovely - it can be difficult travelling as a women alone for work sometimes but I always feel comfortable and welcome here

Pretty expensive - if hadnt stayed before and loved it may have been put off by the price options for a hot breakfast would be great ( I’m not bothered but know my husband is !) however the continental breakfast provided was fresh and tasty

Every was great. The staff on arrival and we ate later that evening. The food was delicious. The atmosphere was great. The breakfast and hospitality was second to none. Dita was so lovely to us kind and friendly and We were very well taken care of.

The only thing for us was the traffic noise but that is just something we are not used to, as we live in a very rural location.

The vibe of the pub and the accommodation being slightly tucked away. How secure everywhere felt. The room was cute and very cosy. Lovely touches with Rituals soap and shampoo.

No air con in the room and it was extremely hot overnight. A Dyson tower fan was supplied, but did very little to cool the room. No plugs near the mirror, so getting ready was difficult.
