citizenM London Victoria Station
Citizen M is the hotel of the future! It is super clean, super comfortable, super quiet, and has all the amenities needed. As noted, the rooms are small, but they have a great floor plan to make your stay wonderful, safe, and comfortable. Great location too, near Victoria Station!
