good location

The hotel is very close to a train station; you can reach Piccadilly Circus in about 30 minutes. The downside is that the hotel is in the middle of nowhere, difficult to reach by car and with few and very expensive restaurant not even very close. The only restaurant inside the hotel is not a good one.

A step above the rest

Very helpful and resourceful staff. The room, while lacking bright reading lights, suited my needs with ample audio/video inputs for the tech-savvy. A better stocked self-serve food service would have been appreciated. Nonetheless, overall I would highly recommend this location as it was a thoroughly of high quality with a lovely decor and amenities—including a copy of Wallpaper magazine. Being so new meant that everything was in near pristine condition.

The adjoining restaurant service at Fede was poor and the food was overly salty. Staff seemed unable to cope with the most basic requests. I would recommend eating elsewhere.

Aanrader!!

Let op: de foto op deze website klopt niet, het Aloft is veel groter, mooier en moderner. Google het maar! Ik ben er met mijn vriend een weekend geweest maar had veel langer willen blijven. Het gebouw is nieuw en heel modern. Gratis WiFi die redelijk werkt, wat me meeviel met zo'n groot hotel. Daarnaast is er ook nog een ruimte beschikbaar met computers die je kunt gebruiken. De bar oogt op de foto's als een disco/dancing, maar het is gewoon een lounge met zachte muziek. Wel mooi en gezellig ingericht, met pooltafel. Er is een 24-uurs snack winkeltje waar je kleine hapjes en koffie en frisdranken enz. kunt kopen tegen niet al te gekke prijzen, erg fijn! Wij hadden een 2-persoons Aloft kamer met Kingsize bed. De kamer was meer dan ruim genoeg en had alles dat we nodig hadden en meer; enorme flatscreen, aansluitingen voor al je apparaten (oa USB en zelfs Europese stopcontacten!), een föhn, spullen om koffie en thee te maken en een strijkplank + strijkijzer. Het bed was ontzettend comfortabel en de badkamer is prachtig, met een ruime inloopdouche. Al met al een sterke aanrader, hou de aanbiedingen in de gaten want de prijzen per dag kunnen nogal verschillen. Ik kom hier zeker terug, sterker nog, ik ben nu al aan het boeken!

Het restaurant is voortreffelijk, mijn vriend had nog nooit zo'n goede biefstuk gegeten. Ook gezellig ingericht, en heeft groot terras.
