After a long flight to London from Minneapolis, followed by a bus to Southampton, The Grapes was a welcome and charming surprise at a great rate. We booked Room #3, a twin room. We prefer a king, but after a long day of travel we wanted a little extra room. The room is up two flights of tight stairs, but very walkable (we’re 62/70). The bar will keep your heavy luggage downstairs, so just pack what you need in the room. The room was exceptionally clean! I loved the smell of bleach in the bathroom too. The host has all the amenities you need from still and sparkling water, an assortment of coffee/creamers, biscotti, shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, lotions, and big soft towels in the en-suite bath. White furniture, tan/cream walls, and great bed linens were clean, comfortable, and tasteful. There are hair dryers, and irons in the shared couloir along with an assortment of converter plugs. Check-in was smooth at 1pm and check-out is at 11am. A keyed entry, and another to the room made it feel super safe. Oxford Street is a bustling outdoor pedestrian only pub/restaurant area. If a little street noise bothers you, ask for another room not facing the street. Damien was incredibly helpful and even shared the ‘gold’ card, which gave us 10% at the bar below. Would definitely stay here again!
