FIELDING HOTEL

Opposite the Royal Opera House in a charming pedestrian street which still retains its 19th century gas lamps, a haven of peace and quiet in the midst of bustling Covent Garden, there can be few hotels in London more happily placed than the Fielding Hotel. Named after the novelist Henry Fielding who lived in Broad Court with his brother, the magistrate John Fielding, the hotel is housed in a delightfully attractive early 19th century building and provides comfortable, moderately priced accommodation, with friendly and helpful staff, all rooms having toilet and shower, television, direct dial telephone, free WI-if Internet access and tea and coffee making facilities.
