The Best Western Swiss Cottage Hotel is located in a leafy conservation area of south Hampstead and set in a sensitive conversion of four Victorian townhouses, dating from 1860. All 59 guestrooms are furnished in a traditional style with antique furniture as well as period paintings and rugs. Rooms feature private bathrooms with hair dryers and come equipped with coffee/tea making facilities, cable television and dial- up Internet connections.
Guests can enjoy a full range of breakfast services and unwind in the lounge bar with a pint and a light snack from the bar menu. Limited hours room service is also an option for those seeking in-room refreshment. The hotel has two distinctive conference venues, the largest with a capacity of 40 and the smaller can accommodate 20 people. Multilingual staff on the 24-hour front desk are available to assist with the booking of theatre tickets and sightseeing. The tranquillity of London's Royal Parks is within easy reach: Regent's Park, the home of London Zoo, is just one mile away. Those seeking entertainment and London's intoxicating nightlife should head for the West End with its array of theatres and nightclubs situated three miles, or a ten-minute tube ride, from the hotel. The hotel is approximately 20 miles (32 kilometres), or a 40 minute drive from London Heathrow Airport. Take the Heathrow Express train as far as Paddington Station.
