It’s a very nice old hotel with great restaurant and bar. The location is very nice, near a beautiful park and many restaurants, however, going to and from main attractions takes 40 - 90 minutes depending on traffic.

Amazing staff and great location. Lots of cute shops and cafes near by. Only downside is it’s a ten minute walk to the subway but other than that it’s a 10/10

We would definitely stay here again, when next in the area. Although we did not use the snack or mini bar, having the option to use them was a welcomed change, they were reasonably priced too

Lovely hotel, styling room with nice touches. The most comfy bed, fluffiest towels with lots of tempting treats in a fully stocked mini-bar and wicker basket, although a bit pricey! The bar downstairs was busy and bustling, we didn't eat or drink here this time, but will definitely stay here again.

Highly recommended
Lovely room, very comfortable bed, nice breakfast with high quality produce.
It was delightful to have a selection of wine glasses, teaspoon rather than a wooden stick and fresh milk in the fridge. Really enjoyed my stay despite it being for business.

An older property , quirky clever accommodations which were nice and quiet despite being grouped with a pub . Refurbishment is probably due here and there and the bed was a little uncomfortable for the room rate when comparing to city centre prices .

We were staying in the old end of the hotel and I must say it was very tired service was good and bed very comfortable we informed management of our situation and they were very nice and gave us a reasonable discount of the bill we hope when we return things will have changed

We absolutely loved our stay at the Windmill. The rooms were so cute and cozy. The bed was incredible. The night manager who checked us in was extremely friendly and helpful. The pub was also excellent. We had dinner there twice because it was so good. The breakfast was not good so I don’t recommend it but everything else was great. The area is very quiet by a park and is a short walk to the tube. Definitely would stay here again!

Rediscovering Clapham as former residents
We really enjoyed our stay, and we have already shared our experience with others. The room was in above average condition, and it was surprisingly quiet despite facing the restaurant/pub. The shower pressure was great. If I had to provide constructive criticism, I would recommend that the flooring and shower stall be upgraded.
