    Only thing was the pies being still frozen !!

    My 2 daughters and I had an evening meal on the Friday evening we all ordered pie and chips sadly all 3 pies were still frozen in the middle so they had to go back !! Once cooked properly they were very nice . The waiter service was excellent he served us throughout our stay so polite and lovely to talk too.

    We didn't have much of a view out of the room, just straight onto another tall building but we weren't in the room much as we were out seeing London.

    Hotel is well located for walking access to Soho, Covent Garden, British Museum (just round the corner) and the nearby tube station. Breakfast was buffet style but one of the best I've had. Everything seemed freshly made and the scrambled eggs were soft and creamy (which is rare). Staff were very helpful and responded to our request for more hangers very quickly.

    Excellent central location (close to Covent Garden, China Town, Piccadilly Circus and major landmarks). The customer service by Jaime and Joris was wonderful and very guest oriented, thank you! All requests fulfilled in no time. Comfy beds and cosy atmosphere. Thank you for making our stay memorable!

    Everything was great

    1st time we have stayed up this part of London and a first for a west end show. The location to the Dominion theatre was great and close to Oxford street, we definitely made our few days count. The staff were very nice, the bed was comfy and the breakfast was excellent. Would definitely stay there again.

    I don't eat cereal or full english breakfast. The contintental part could have been a bit better (cheese slices were a bit bland).

    Location was perfect. We walked from St.Pancras (25 min.). Britisch museum just 2 minute walk from the hotel. We spend 3 nights in the Thistle and never used the subway, we could do everything by foot. Good full english breakfast and fresh fruit every day. Staff was very welcoming.

    Only thing I was not happy with was that I sent a question to the hotel via Booking.com a couple of days before our scheduled arrival, and it was not answered.

    The room was on the quiet side of the hotel, as requested when booking. Beds & pillows very comfortable. Appreciated the hair conditioner in the bathroom, that's not always provided, but is essential for us. Breakfast had good variety of good quality. The location is excellent for walking to many theatres. The hotel is easy to get to from Heathrow by the underground to Holborn station.

    The rooms could do with modernising. The towel rails didn’t work in the bathroom. The room service was expensive even without the service charge.

    Breakfast options were impressive and perfect for me and my daughter. The location of the hotel was perfect for our needs.

    The room was too cold in the evening and we had to turn on the hot air conditioning. We didn’t had a frigobar, wich a 4 stars hotel has to have in the rooms. The tv was not working very well.

    The room was really nice, spacious, clean and the quiet even with the street outside. The mattress was super comfortable.

    The place is a little run down. There was mould on the shades in the bathroom. The furniture and furnishings are old fashioned and dated.

    Hotel had all the things expected of a hotel of that class. The staff were friendly. They also gave us a bottle of Cava to celebrate our wedding anniversary, so very happy about that!
