Wonderful Hotel and Location

I am from Minneapolis, Minnesota, and have never been to Europe before. I have a cousin who has lived in London for almost forty years, and only see her occasionaly at weddings and funerals back home. I met my twenty-one year old daughter at Heathrow airport, and we traveled together to the Melia White House. My daughter is studying in Antibes, near Cannes and Monte Carlo, France, and had visited London and my cousin already. A friend, who is also a AAA travel agent suggested the Melia White House because of its proximity to my cousin's home in Little Venice, and the wonderful access to the Tube...just a block away, and the fact that it is a world class hotel! My daughter and I were there over the G20 conference, and there were press interviews being done at the hotel, but it was hardly noticed because of the expertise of the staff there at the hotel. Breakfasts were wonderful! So much food, and a great reason for getting up and starting the day. The staff, especially the concierges, were so very helpful with directions, cabs, transports and a room upgrade. We were a little cramped in our original room, so we upgraded to the "Level", a larger room and much more liveable for a few days. I have stayed in many hotels accross the US, Mexico, Canada and the Carribbean, and this hotel was surely a treat. I am glad that my friend reccomended it. My only regret as an American, was the lack of wash cloths in the bathroom... apparently Europeans use what we call hand towels in place of wash cloths. We did ask for wash cloths, and immediately received more "hand towels". This was truely a lovely adventure for myself and my daughter, and if I am lucky enough to visit my cousin in London again, I will defineately stay here!

Located opposite Portland Street

Located opposite Portland Street tube station and close to Regents Park this was a great hotel. Although breakfast was NOT include in the price we were offered an upgrade for little more than the cost of twp breakfasts which gave us a king-sized bed, breakfasts and access to a lounge which provided free tapas & drinks from 6pm. That effectively meant that dinner was include as well.

Quality hotel

Great hotel. Quite large but surprisingly quiet. Excellent location by Regents Park. Can't fault it. Taxi or tube to all locations are close by. 15 minute walk to Oxford Street

Brilliant !!!

The location is perfect. One tube station is just steps away (Great Portland Street) and another (Regents Park) is just is about a city block further. The hotel itself offers everything you could possibly need or want. Our room (Superior Room) was better than we expected. It would compare to the nicer rooms at Harrah's in Las Vegas for those who are familiar with those. On London standards it was VERY large. They provide free internet service in the common areas of the lobby. Convenience stores for soda and such were also just steps away. Original Bus Tour (which is a must-do) stops right outside on Albany Street.

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.
