great location, friendly staff

I was a single tourist, and this hotel was within walking distance of so much I wanted to see, and had easy access to the busses and underground for the rest. My room was a classic (meaning tiny) and on one of the lower floors, so no real view. Despite this I was very pleased since the room was beautiful, very clean, quiet and and comfortable. I was not planning on spending hours in the room anyway since what I wanted was a safe and comfortable hub from which to see the city. Also, I can't say enough about the staff... always professional, friendly and helpful.

Close enough to Soho to take in the many fabulous little places to eat... far enough away to get away from the noise and confusion. (Maybe a 15 minute walk)

wonderful stay

We had a wonderful stay at the Cavendish. The location is perfect- between 2 tube stops and within walking distance of most tourist spots. It's a stylish hotel, nice staff, comfortable beds, adjustable air, bathroom good for our needs. Did not eat at the hotel, so since I had to rate dining, I put a 4 only because I don't know. Other reviewers mentioned the glass bathroom door...it's frosted and you can't see in- no problem. I was with my daughter who just completed a summer abroad college term in London. We booked the classic room which was perfect for us sharing a bed. Having been in London for a term, she thought the location couldn't have been better and was very pleased.

"Great location,Terrific staff!"

Couldn't ask for better location theaters a few blocks, Regent Street a few blocks Green Park, a few biocks!!Staff was the best helpful, hard working and cheerful!...The full English Breakfast was a wonderful start to each day. I would have given a 5 star rating but bath,thought spotless, was small enough to make it a bit hard to manage getting ready.

Great value for the price!

Excellent location within the walking distance from most London's attractions. Excellent service, very clean, although rather small rooms, and great breakfast included into the price! Highly recommended.

Near all the action

This hotel is a gem. It is a short walk from Piccadilly Circus, The British Museum, the Royal Academy, the National Gallery, the theater district, and Soho restaurants and clubs. It is located on a quiet, picturesque street across from a small department store, hidden away from London's hustle and bustle. The room was modern and well-appointed, although small by American standards. The soft, fluffy bed is a welcome respite after a busy day of sightseeing. Our bathroom was large, with a large glass-enclosed shower and a tub as well. The concierge was particulary helpful, giving directions and suggesting an excellent spot for a traditional Sunday roast beef dinner.

Fabulous deal in fancy Mayfair district

This was a fabulous deal in the middle of the fancy Mayfair district. The location is convenient to the subway. We had a beautiful room that actually felt like an American-level 4 star hotel instead of the European-level 4 star hotel (which is usually more like a 3-star hotel). It was also quite large and comfortable. Having the free breakfast in our room was also a nice perk! The only annoyance is that tours like Grayline don't bother to figure out where this hotel is, so they made us walk a long way to catch the bus even though the bus actually stops right by the front door!!

Take the 15 minute walk to Soho. There's all kinds of great ethnic restaurants. Much better than the food in this area. If you're short for time, the food at the hotel is also surprisingly good. It's not like the typical bad English food.

Excellent hotel - great location and good value for the money. Rooms were a bit small, but clean, comfortable and typical for Europe.

Lady Cavendish would be mortified

We chose this hotel from reviews and when we arrived the location was perfect. We needed to exchange some dollars or Euros for pounds to pay the cab driver but the reception clerk said she could not do so until the concierge showed her how to accomplish this small task. It was charged to our room. Room reserved was a superior King which was fine except for the fact that there was only about 15" of space on the right side of the bed. Not too easy to maneuver. The bath was small and had minimal space for toiletries and was barely adequate to turn around in. The supplied robes( after requesting same) turned out to be extremely worn and in one example had a pocket ripped off. Fabric was as soft as sandpaper. Included breakfast was OK but certainly not worth the $35 per person charge if not included. Closet was small and shallow clothes on hangers had to all be at angles to enable door to close. half of closet space devoted to ironing board and iron. No dresser for clothes had to use three small built in shelves in closet. Toiletries included one small square of soap which was only changed after complaints.The manager said " they were trying to be ecologically friendly". I said it sounds more like you are trying to save a few bucks. To be fair the location is superb, the rest of the staff is wonderful and friendly. It is a great base for sightseeing but I would leave early and stay out late.

Chinatown is only a ten minute walk from hotel and is full of delightful restaurants with reasonably priced menus. The other choices are the pubs close by the hotel that serve delicious pub fare at normal prices( fish and chips $12) If you need to buy bottled water go to the supermarket at the end of Jermyn St and you can buy 2X 1.5 liter bottles for the same cost as a 12Oz coke $3.00.
