I walked past it on Tuesday and it had a sign up saying it was closed for a few months for refurbishment but I read the piece about it in the Guardian and thought that it was ready. It does look so nice from the outside and hari, from what I could see when peering in, there was a bar.


Discounts for EDFers would be great - we want to put it on our wedding invites. Can you work your magic Mark?

A nice reply from Mel at the hotel:


Thank you for your email and interest. We would love to have the east dulwich forum on board, and of course the local community of East dulwich. We have already had some bookings from a couple who are getting married from east dulwich who are actually spending their wedding night with us. We have offered them and their guests a 5 percent discount. We would be happy to offer this discount to the east dulwich forum. I hope that is acceptable. We have tried to price ourselves as competitively as possible in the boutique hotel market. We also dont have any stealth taxes as our prices are inc vat and includes organic breakfast which received 10/10 from the times. We also want to promote the art scene in the area which we beleive makes the area so unique and have already got exhibitions planned. I like to think of Camberwell as our version of Venice Beach or down town LA. Thats kinda where our inspiration came from Spanish Americana. Also if there are any artists on your site who would like to meet it would be a pleasure, we have alot of hanging space. Also please let the forum know if they need to view the hotel we would be more than happy to show people around. Thankyou for the invite to the blog.


Kind Regards

So if people need somewhere to stay in the area they should give the hotel a try (and let us know what it's like)

If you're an artist and would like to show your work, drop them a line

If you're just nosey and want to have a look at the place, mention the forum and they'll show you around

How excellent does this place and the owners sound?



I live 10 minutes away and I'm tempted to book


Thanks Mark for digging and thanks hari for bringing it up. I had read the article when it was published but had put it to back of my mind..

    • Hello, I was wondering if others have had experience of roof repairs and guarantees. A while back, we had a water leak come through in our top floor room.  A roofer came and went out on the roof to take a look - they said it was to do with a leak near the chimney.   They did some rendering around the chimney and this cost £1800 plus £750 for scaffolding (so £2,550 total).  They said the work came with a 10 year guarantee. About a year later, there was another leak on the same wall, which looked exactly the same size and colour as the previous leak. But it was about 2 metres away from it, on the other side of a window.  I contacted the roofer about this new leak, thinking it would be covered by the guarantee. However, he said the new leak was due to a different and unrelated problem, and so was not covered by the guarantee. This new leak, he said, was due to holes in the felt underneath the tiles. He said there are holes in the felt all over the roof (so if this was the cause, I expect the first leak may have been caused by that too - but he didn't mention the holes in the felt for the first repair). It feels like the 10-year guarantee doesn't mean much at all.  I realise that the guarantee couldn't cover all future problems with the roof, but where do you draw the line with what's reasonable?  Is it that a leak is only covered if an identical leak happens in exactly the same place?  There were no terms and conditions with the guarantee, which I didn't question at the time.  
    • I always like Redemptions coffee though I've not visted for awhile..Romeo Jones was always my 1st choice for takeout Coffee Redemption 2nd. What IS with all these independent Yoga and Pilates Studios? Theres one on London Rd in Forest Hill (Mind) thats recently opened and then theres the Pilates place thats opened on North X Road. I looked at the prices of the one on NorthX road and was frankly shocked at how expensive it is, The FH one is slightly less.  Made me decide to stick with classes in The local authority gym
    • Dulwich Village update: The old DVillage location is (again?) under offer. The storefront next to the new grocer is going to open as a yoga and pilates studio...the name of which I've forgotten. 🤦‍♂️  Megan's is starting to push its takeaway coffee and cannibalise some of Redemption Coffee's market share. Is Megan's struggling? It's quite a big restaurant they have and rent cant be cheap. The reinventing of the Megan's branch on Lordship Lane as Ollie's seems to have stalled. And Redemption is looking a bit tired these days...
    • You're being a bit of a dick. The whole point of a forum is to discuss what is going on in the locality and this seems as reasonable a question as anything.
