Where to stay in Roehampton
Each area has its own feel; here's who each one suits.
Roehampton is a residential quarter of London, not a hotel district. Places to stay in Roehampton are few and far between. Its streets run past large houses such as Downshire House and Templeton House rather than lodgings, so most visitors base themselves in central London and travel out to it.
If you want calm near Putney Park House, take a room on the quieter edges and come in for the day. Putney lies close by.
