The Windermere Hotel London is an award winning, small London Hotel of enormous charm and character, where the atmosphere is relaxed and friendly. Having established a wide reputation, many of guests are introduced by personal recommendation, a tribute to the individual care and attention given to all.
The site upon which the Windermere Hotel in London stands is steeped in history. The street overlooked by the windows of the Windermere Hotel has seen Kings, Queens, Princes, Abbotts and nobility pass by. Warwick Way used to be called "The Abbott's Lane" because it was the road that connected Westminster Abbey with the Abbott's residence, known as Abbott's Grange. Number 144 stands at the point where the gate to the Abbott's Grange existed. The Abbott's Grange was the rest and leisure centre enjoyed not only by the Abbott and the monks, but also by the Kings and Princes of Medieval England. Numbers 142 and 144 Warwick Way were built in 1857 as a pair of private dwellings and are fine examples of early Victorian classical design. Number 144 was probably the earliest "Bed and Breakfast" Hotel in the area when in 1881 it became the locally famous "Pimlico Rooms.
