40 Winks Hotel

15/11/2021

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

40 Winks is now CLOSED. We struggled on as long as we could through the pandemic, but since our business relied almost entirely on tourism, and, with no sign that things would improve anytime soon, we have made the difficult decision to close. Thank you so much for your support over the last thirteen years.

We are enormously grateful to the small number of determined guests who have come to stay with us over the last year, and who have taken the time to share their experiences on review sites like Tripadvisor.
Winning another 'Travellers' Choice Award' for 2021 means a lot to us, particularly after such a difficult year.
Although there are still many challenges ahead, we are hoping that travel restrictions will gradually relax and we will be able to welcome more guests back here very soon!

What a lovely feature on 40 Winks...

The smallest and most exclusive boutique hotel in the world. The charismatic owner David Carter has created an extravagant British universe.

One of the few highlights of the long dreary Winter lockdown in London was having the lovely and super talented Jason Joyce back here at 40 Winks filming a music video. It was finally released at the weekend, so here it is. Enjoy!

With the possibility that 40 Winks might finally be able to reopen in May, we thought it would be nice to share some of the fabulous pictures taken here over the last few months by the super talented Victoria Rio. Enjoy!

We might not have any guests at the moment, but it is still nice to know that we are still winning awards. Got this in from Tripexpert earlier today! 😉
