Amazing hotel located in the heart of London and within walking distance to all the major attractions. Hotel staff was top notch and responded to every need immediately. Hotel food and bar were first class. We even tried to check in early and our room wasn’t ready but they let us rinse off in the spa area which was amazing after flying all day.

We took advantage of a Black Friday deal to get a lovely room with balcony and river views. Spotlessly clean, spacious, friendly staff. We are both allergic to feather duvets so requested a hypoallergenic one, which was quite thin and too small to stretch across the width of the bed. Floors were highly polished and lethally slippery, even with bare feet. Nothing complimentary in the room except teabags and coffee capsules, which is disappointing for a hotel priced so highly. We were disappointed that the Roof Terrace bar was closed (not open on Sundays or Mondays). Didn't use the minibar or snacks as exorbitantly priced
