Great room (upgraded), peaceful for the central location it enjoys. Would have preferred a security pass for the lift, we did find a non-resident in the pantry (which had bonus snacks and drinks) on our way home from the theatre district. Easy tube links etc, nice fittings, friendly staff. Thank you!

I’m not sure the location could be bettered for transport links and the staff were fantastic. I hadn’t realised I’d booked a room with a bath rather than shower but for a one night stay the bath was OK. Room supremely quiet despite a busy world right outside. Would book again.

Jennifer

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
We were given an attic room even though the hotel was not full. We had to go back to reception because our key didn’t open the door. The room was badly lit. One bedside light was missing a switch. Bathroom was so small that trying to use the basin water splashed on the floor. The loo roll was hidden behind a bath robe. Eggs Royale came on a solid untoasted bagel instead of a muffin. Only reason I gave it one star instead of zero was great food in the bar.

Rock hard beds with dips in the mattress

Beautiful room with great views but the moment we got into bed it was clear the mattress was way past its best. Unfortunately it was rock hard and a dip in the centre meant we constantly rolled into it. I told staff at the front desk who said someone would email me but they didn’t. The shower gel pump was broken as well

Excellent London Stay

This was a perfect choice! Great location, in an area with a great vibe. Room was small but beautifully presented, which was no problem. Breakfast choices were excellent and dining options nearby are plentiful. Close to a number of mainline and underground stations, so suitable for all travellers. Highly recommended
