The May Fair Hotel London

Great Location, Very professional staff. Room somewhat on the small size consideriing price, although very nice decor. Main bar only served one beer, no draft. Resturant bar only served three, no draft either, however room service had at least ten to choose from.

really enjoyed our stay.We had to switch rooms a few times in the beginning,since our room was not to the liking of my wife.chic crowd added to the cool trendy atmosphere.Concierge was great.Great location,near very lively niightlife and clubs.We did see Katy Perry in the neighborhood,and that was cool.

We recently returned from a trip to London where we stayed at two different hotels. The first hotel stay was for four days, the second, for one. We figured we would splurge a little and stay at a more pricey place for the final night and chose The May Fair. We were impressed by the style of the lobby, and the staff was very friendly and helpful, but as soon as we entered our room, we felt we had wasted our money. The room had no character. It felt like a box with a bed. It was definitely stark and not what I would call stylish. I think the pics on the website make it look much better than reality. The bathroom was also lacking. There wasn't a door like you would normally expect. It was instead a frosted glass door that slid closed. Not the best for privacy when using the toilet. And the closet was inside the bathroom (to make it look bigger), and the shower splashed out everywhere. I would not recommend this place to anyone and don't plan to stay hwere again. Not that it's awful, more because there are so many other great choices in London for less money.

Stayed for one night. Chosen for the location, which is very convenient. Service was excellent and the room was perfect. Would definitely stay again.

Hotel room was a good size and bed was very comfortable. This hotel is very comparable to 5 star hotels in the US. Hotel is located 1.5 blocks from the Underground that connects to 2 Lines (Picadilly and Jubilee) so it is very convenient to get around. Walking distance to shopping, restaurants, Hyde park, and Buckingham palace. We enjoyed a nice meal at Langdon's a block away. Across the street there is a grocery store to buy any necessities.

very good hotel excellent facilities and very welcoming.

The location is great. But I heard so many "I'm sorry, but there's nothing we can do" until we finally got to check- into our room at 3:30 pm!!! Shower time is messy. The bathroom is extremely small, NO rugs on the floor, the shower spills all over the place. The shampoo destroys you hair. Make sure you take your own. Hairdryer so, so. It's pretty run down considering it went through renovation recently. If you're going to spend all day out in the street, it is ok.

A Hotel at this location can be much better. It needs to understand that location and a busy recepton is not the only ingredients of a good hotel. From non working / crowded lifts whihc were neither smooth nor clean to rooms in which you can hear the whole hotel talk and walk to towels in the bathrooms which are over used and over worked to a large room with dirt carpets to no proper working table / desk. there were a lot of issues whihc need working. The reception did not have computers running when i checked in so I had to provide them with all booking details.

When the quality of a hotel is so bad that it motivates one to write about it for the first time, you know you are dealing with a problem. I arrived off a trans Atlantic flight earlier than the allotted check-in times and was told no rooms were available. That is fair and understandable, but the promise to follow up with me when they did come available never materialized. Front desk attitude was aloof...and left me feeling like I was doing the hotel a favor by gracing them with my presence. Porters, when I did eventually get a room, took forever to deliver my bags. Rooms were tiny and expensive, probably a casualty of London, but furniture was cheap and the sense of luxury diluted by the poor quality. Televisions small too, entertainment selection dated. The hotel's strategy is modern chic with a minimalist style but ends up being modern disaster with a bad attitude.

Great Service.
