The location was great and the personal was very nice.

Eveline Luxembourg

This was a nice hotel. The hotel is attached to the Charing Cross train station and walking distance to Trafalgar Square, Covent Gardens and a great many other great places. There were countless restaurants in the area and we found everything from McDonald's to upscale pub food. The decor isn't what I would consider luxury, but it was a nice hotel with a very nice staff. The rooms were generously sized and nicely decorated with a touch of modern. Our room had a separate shower and tub which we enjoyed. This was a great hotel for sightseeing.

Timothy United States of America

1. Location is simply wonderful! Many sites within easy walking distance. Two tube stations right next to the hotel. 2. Mini-bar is free and you can ask for whatever is missing at any time. Great!

Dr Israel

Diana, the lounge hostess, was fabulous. She really made us feel special.

Charles United States of America

Stupendous location. Extremely friendly staff. Excellent buffet breakfast.

Ronen Israel

Great location, very good breakfast and helpful staff.

Tugba Turkey

Nothing to complain about, everything was excellent. Besides, thank you for the birthday surprise!

Murat Turkey

Big rooms , nicely decor. AMAZING location , clean and nice , helpful staff. located next to center of london yet quite and elegant. will most likely come back next time.

Gilga Israel

The location is great. Near Covent Garden and restaurants. The train station is attached as well as a tube station. The hotel is on The Strand a (once) high end Blvd. plenty of homeless now tho. Can get rowdy in the evening. The hotel breakfast is worth getting. I didn’t notice any real breakfast places nearby. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. They helped with us renting a car from Enterprise for a day. Great value for the $. We’d return there again.

Vincent United States of America

Breakfast was OK not more. Staff was really great very polite and helpful.

      There wasn't a lot not to like, maybe some people .might find the noise from the nearby trains a little intrusive.

      I liked everything, the location, the warm friendly staff and the extremely comfortable bed.It was my birthday and the staff had really gone the extra mile to make me feel special with balloons in the room, wine, cake and a personnaly written birthday card.

      “Great hotel in a busy location”
      • • Leisure trip
      • • Group
      • • Stayed 3 nights

      Our only issue that would prevent us from considering this hotel in the future is that it was so well located that there were just too many people in the area. This of course is not the hotel's fault, but we prefer a slightly less busy location.

      This was a nice hotel. The hotel is attached to the Charing Cross train station and walking distance to Trafalgar Square, Covent Gardens and a great many other great places. There were countless restaurants in the area and we found everything from McDonald's to upscale pub food. The decor isn't what I would consider luxury, but it was a nice hotel with a very nice staff. The rooms were generously sized and nicely decorated with a touch of modern. Our room had a separate shower and tub which we enjoyed. This was a great hotel for sightseeing.

      The shower was inadequate and I was told on the first day it was a problem with the boiler on our floor & had been fixed, it had not. The shower did not get any better and at times no water came through at all. We had 2 televisions that seemed to be linked but were not in time so we could not get them working properly.

      The entrance was very festive, beautiful tree and decorations. They had hot chocolate in the Reception. The concierge was very helpful. We had free drinks and nibbles in the lounge included with our room. The rooms were clean.

      The staff in the bar (especially the Barkeeper) is super unfriendly and unhelpful. The cups and plates in the Amba lounge are not really clean and have bits and pieces of old food on it. In general the staff is very suspicious if you have the right to be there.

      “Perfect Location, despite some shortcomings (detalied below).”
      • • Leisure trip

      • • Stayed 4 nights

      1. Noise. The room upstairs was constantly making noises. Very poor insulation between the rooms. I had to use earplugs to fall asleep... 2. Nearly no room for storage. We had to take the coffee machine etc. from the mini-bar in order to make (little) room for our staff.

      1. Location is simply wonderful! Many sites within easy walking distance. Two tube stations right next to the hotel. 2. Mini-bar is free and you can ask for whatever is missing at any time. Great!
