The Rookery — Eamon Downes Like

Swathing Yourself in History and Style in Clerkenwell, London

An intriguing little hotel in an interesting area of London, steeped in wildly contrasting character: from being the location of the super club Fabric; the famous and still thriving Smithfield meat market and also the spot where William Wallace drew his final breath. In a building dating back to 1764, The Rookery deftly manages to combine modern boutique style without compromising its rich history. So, what you get are beautiful and unique antique-packed rooms (some with a welcoming cast iron bath), wooden-panelled walls adorned with fine art, and a homely comfort that results in an experience resembling a tranquil break with your stylish grandmother.
