The FieldingHotel

The Fielding Hotel sits on Broad Court, a pedestrianised court facing the Royal Opera House, and takes its name from the eighteenth-century novelist Henry Fielding. Rooms are spread over five floors with no lift, a limitation the hotel is upfront about alongside its modest size. The operator describes the atmosphere as a family boutique feel rather than a corporate one, and the hotel serves no food on site, leaning instead on the surrounding streets of Covent Garden for breakfast and dinner. Its position two minutes from Covent Garden underground station and within walking distance of the British Museum and Leicester Square is the main draw for guests wanting a quiet, central base without a hotel chain's scale.
