We were booked into another room, but unfortunately there was a bad smell from the drainage. The manager sent up a maintenance crew to fix the problem, while we arranged for a different room which was excellent. The staff and management very friendly and nothing was too much trouble.

Anthony United Kingdom

The room was really nice, and although isn't actually as spacious as the pictures make out, it is plenty big enough for a couple of nights away as a couple. It's really close to everything if you want to do the tourist thing, yet a short tube or taxi trip to anywhere else you want to be. Staff were really pleasant and have been just as helpful after my trip as during.

Adam United Kingdom

The location is just perfect. It’s in the center of everywhere. The staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful.

Jia Hong Kong

Everything, the size of the rooms, the staff, the decor, the location and a big shout out to concierge for helping us with trying to locate our lost luggage.

Eleni United States

excellent room, extremely quiet despite facing onto Trafalgar Square

Mike United Kingdom

Great view at the rooftop bar, clean and spacious rooms, cozy and comfortable bad..great breakfast

Ines Croatia

location, breakfast, staff especially the concierge on the door

Claire United Kingdom

Great location. Decent sized room with a very good bathroom that had an excellent walk in shower. The quality of the bed and linen were excellent. A very good breakfast was included in our rate. The staff were all very friendly, helpful and professional. We also enjoyed a drink in the rooftop bar and an evening meal in the restaurant, which were both very good. We enjoyed the food but a more comprehensive dinner menu would be an improvement. We would stay here again.

Mark United Kingdom

central location, clean with great staff, food and service great.

Elaine Spain

The location is great - walking distance to key areas. Nice rooms. Bed was great. Roof top bar is great.
