Zedwell Hotels in London
five locations, one standard of calm
Find your Zedwell
Zedwell Hotels are designed around one idea: you shouldn’t have to compromise on rest just because you’re in the middle of one of the world’s busiest cities. With five locations across central London in Piccadilly Circus, Knightsbridge, Tottenham Court Road, Park Lane and Greenwich, there’s a Zedwell within reach of wherever your plans take you.
Every Zedwell cocoon is engineered for deep, restorative sleep. Blackout blinds, sound-dampening walls, temperature control and a bed built for recovery mean you wake up ready, not just rested. Whether you’re here for work, a weekend, or everything in between, Zedwell gives you London without the noise that comes with it.
Our capsule hotel at Piccadilly Circus also offers a new kind of hostel experience: private, considered and calm.
Our hotel locations
All five Zedwell hotels sit in prime Zone 1 and Zone 2 London locations, within walking distance of major transport links, landmarks and neighbourhoods. Choose by area, or explore each property to find the cocoon that fits your trip.
Our capsule hotel
What makes Zedwell different from other London hotels
Zedwell was built around a simple belief: that genuinely restorative sleep shouldn’t cost a fortune, and that a central London location doesn’t have to mean a noisy, overpriced room.
Our cocoon rooms are acoustically engineered to limit city noise. Every bed is a custom-designed sleep system. The lighting, temperature and blackout controls are all within your control.
Zedwell Hotels sit in the mid-market sweet spot: more considered than a budget chain, more honest than a lifestyle hotel charging for a name. For guests who want to sleep well, be centrally located and spend their London budget on the city itself, Zedwell is built for them.
