Hotel 167
It may be located in a Victorian townhouse, but this funky little hotel is no period clone. On the contrary, its decor is positively quirky. The lobby makes a bold statement, with its black and white tiled floor and striking abstract art. Upstairs, the bedrooms are an eclectic mix of traditional and arty: the odd antique piece or Victorian painting, with contemporary touches (Mexican bedspreads, Klee prints). The whole place has a whiff of bohemia (not to mention pot pourri), and its shambolic charm has inspired artists: it’s been the subject of a song (an unreleased track by the Manic Street Preachers) and a novel (Hotel 167 by Jane Solomons).

the place is ok but only the place I'd say... it's not clean (full of dust), the bathrooms are small, old and not nice. whe we arrived we didn't have the heating (inFebruary), no towels, no soap...there is no reception so the housekeepers are difficult to find... I do not reccomend at all.
