About Sanctuary House Hotel
Traditional, ornate Victorian pub with modern dining and big-screen sports, plus refined rooms.
A Fuller’s Ale & Pie House and hotel, mainly drawing office workers and visitors to Westminster Abbey and other nearby attractions. Last refurbished in 2023, this converted early 20th-century office building has housed publishers and politicians; indeed in September 2015 the venue gained brief fame when the just-elected new leader of the Labour Party, Jeremy Corbyn, led his supporters to it for a celebratory singing of The Red Flag!
Two banks of four handpumps for the ale; and prices reflect the very central location.

My husband and I stayed here in July 2024 for 4 nights and loved every minute! The location couldn't be better as it's within walking distance of all the major attractions in London. Our room was wonderful with just the right amount of practical needs mixed with English style. The front desk staff were great and easy to work with from check in to check out and sharing with us information about the area. We also went to the pub downstairs a couple of times for breakfast, (which was GREAT!!), dinner, and drinks! We would absolutely stay here again and would highly recommend to anyone else.

We had the best stay at this great little hotel within a 5 minute walk to Westminster. The staff were excellent, so friendly and helpful. Breakfast was fabulous. A great selection at the buffet plus a cooked full English every morning which set us up for the day. The nearest tube station is 3 minutes walk away and the rooms were very comfortable with everything provided. The fridge was a very useful addition and rooms were serviced daily. We loved the sanctuary house and can't wait to return. Thank you for a wonderful stay 😊

PERFECT little hotel in the heart of Westminster. A short 3 minute walk to the St. James Park tube and opposite direction a one minute walk to Westminster Abbey. Location5/5. Service, rooms spotlessly clean, well fitted with a small in-room fridge and plenty of coffee making supplies. Beds comfy. The breakfast in the downstairs pub was always hot and delicious. The staff super friendly and always had a smile. Even when I totally botched the reservation, the hotel went out of their way to accommodate the needs of my small, 3 room group. I would absolutely recommend this hotel to anyone wanting…

Fantastic stay whilst visiting London. The hotel is lovely, clean, with good facilities and is in an absolutely fantastic location. The staff were really helpful and the breakfast was great. No noise what so ever from the pub downstairs. Would also recommend a pie from the pub for an evening meal! Would 100% stay again.

Absolutely 5⭐️ and more!! We had a wonderful evening at the Sanctuary House Pub last night, perfectly capped off by the England Euros Quarterfinal win! The staff were fantastic…welcoming, friendly, attentive, and kind. The pub was super clean as were the restrooms. I had made a reservation earlier in the week to be sure we had a table for the game and for my visiting sister to get to experience the match and pub atmosphere. The Sanctuary House did not disappoint on either. The food was all superb! I can’t recommend the Chicken, Bacon, Leek Pie enough!! The Fish & Chips and the Fish Pie were…
