I paid over £600pn for a suite on room only basis so I could stay with two kids. I was expecting something lovely but we got less than basic. The whole room was tired. Windows don’t open. No curtain in the living room. Bottle of water warm as just on the side. No milk for for coffees. Fridge empty. Walls we're grubby. Bathroom looks like it belongs in an old peoples home. Furniture is poor quality and the bed was an uncomfortable double. There was rubbish in the hallways. Plugs and light switches didn’t work in the room. Extra bed requested not made up. Shower leaks out all over the floor. Restaurant floors held together with tape. Breakfast counters were so gross, covered in food and juice that we walked out and went to a cafe. They made the bed but left PJs in a pile on top of the air con unit and didn’t give clean glasses. Only basic toiletries provided. The pool area was less than inviting. Very dark and run down. All in all, poor experience. Literally only positive is central location. Definitely doesn’t fit usual 5* expectations.

Gorgeous hotel in top location. However, with one elevator (out of 2) out of order, it made for long waits. Additionally, with construction project going on next door, our entire room would vibrate and shake and the noise was like it was all happening in our room on the 5th floor. Clearly this isn't the hotel's fault and glad we were only there for a short stay and weren't jetlagged and hoping for a midday rest. The room was gorgeous and beds super comfortable. Our room with 2 twin beds was big for Europe standards.

The staff are amazing! I felt like royalty at this hotel! We were given completely goody bag with snacks upon arrival and never once did we have to carry our luggage or open a door! Absolutely great stay in the middle of Piccadilly Circus and in walking distance to everything( Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, London eye, Hyde Park and Notting Hill !) if you you don’t feel like walking, the Underground is steps away from the hotel. It’s actually a very simple system to learn! Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Tired very very tired

To say the hotel is tired is an understatement. Carpets stained paint peeling. Fixtures and fittings look 50+ years old. To advertise and charge as a 5 star but to offer that level is astonishing. Location outstanding and staff pleasant but the whole place needs a serious refurb

Old property that needs a complete revamp. Location is great by that doesn’t really make up for the lacklustre condition of the property. It’s closer to a 3 star hotel in its current condition. If you just need somewhere to sleep it’s fine but for that there are less expensive and better. For example a premier in. Would be higher quality than this hotel in terms of services and condition.

Have normally had good stays here but this time was in room 709. Working area was in a very dark corner of the room with no lights. They need to install a floor lamp or table lamp in that area. Triad move one of the bedside lamps but not a compatible plug in the area.

The location was perfect and you are able to walk to a lot of things and if you couldn't walk to what you wanted to see, you can catch a bus right around the corner. While the staff was helpful and the location was great, the street noise was a bit loud at times.
