Weekend visiting family (decided for hotel quietness)

The hotel was really great. Well connected and very central. Close to 3 subway stations, 2 stops from Piccadilly and Victoria, 1 from Euston. Nice reasonable-sized rooms - we were upgraded to an apartment!!! Awesome breakfast although a bit pricey but if you become a member (free) its 50% off. The gym was nice and unused which was also great. Best hotel I have stayed at in London for a while! Overall I highly recommend you stay here - unless you have enough money for one of those 5 star places ;) ;)

Good Hotel

Good hotel, but actually expected to be a better one. Lobby area looked amazing, Christmas decorations were fantastic too! Room itself was quite small (and look sort of different to what we saw on their website), we also thought our bathtub itseld could be cleaner! other than that room was cosy and clean.

Great location- great hotel

My boyfriend and I stayed for three nights. Very comfortable bed and nice staff! Close to the attractions and very close to public transportation. The Sightseeing bus stops like right in front of the hotel and tickets can be bought at the hotel. We ordered room service and the food was really good. We would book this hotel again!

Faulty air conditioning

The air con not only didn't work but kept me awake half the first night. I asked for an engineer to fix it for the second night and he stopped the clanking but it still didn't work. We were not informed that his fix was unsuccessful and they even tried to charge for the room 'upgrade' I had agreed on check-in. Priceless.

Location is great

The location is perfect in a safe area with a tube stop a block from the entrance providing easy acess to London sites. The room , particularly the bathroom was very small(room for only one person to stand). The room was very dusty but the staff tried to clean and make up for the problems. I would stay if travelling alone.

Excellent location and hospitality

Not having been in London in over 10 years I took a stab in the dark and ht the nail on the head. Very close to Regents Park so pack your walking shoes. This hotel also has a hair dryer, in room coffee maker, and an outlet for American appliances. It's a nice walk to the shopping district and restaurants. I will definitely return. Oh - and the Eye and all other sites are just a tube ride away or a nice walk.

OK

The room was not very spacious, only one chair in the room. We had phoned a few days before to ensure we would have a kingsize room - but found twin beds pushed together, made up separately, on our arrival at our room. We called down to reception and they said someone would come to sort - but by the time they arrived, we had unpacked and therefore decided not to have any upheaval and make do with the situation. The beds were comfortable though. Location not ideal for what we wanted either

Satisfactory

Rooms very small and the sink was leaking onto the floor. Bathroom wasn't big enough to fit one male. However, it was clean and very well located for getting around London.

Pleasant

this hotel was very plush. We paid extra to get the "Level" service -- otherwise our room would have been very tiny. The bed was huge, and there were plugs for American appliances - a definite plus. The British breakfast and snacks, wine and beer were great - but again we paid extra. The shower was strange because you really had to climb to get into it. Overall though, a great, if somewhat expensive experience.
