Central London Location

Very Central London Location, Great for shopping in Oxford Street and Very Handy for British Museum. Checked in with no issues, but Lifts can be demanding, as far too many rooms for the amount of Lifts and one was out of Order for the duration of our stay. So waited for about 5 Lifts as we were on 5th floor and they were full going down on check out with Luggage. No Air Con, so very uncomfortable during London Heatwave.

Friendly and attentive staff. Convenient location, close to tube, walking distance to many popular London Attractions! Walking distance to the Theatre District and Chinatown/Soho. Many shops and restaurants close by, including 3 great restaurants right in the Hotel. Only complaint was the elevators were right next to our room and made very loud screeching noises.

Property is being renovated. Old rooms are small, oddly shaped and very shabby. Room did not match the picture and while it is in a good area to get on and off the tube or go to a show, there aren't restaurants near by except in the hotel which were very crowded and over priced. The street noise is very high at all times of day and night. This is a hotel to stay at if you are on a school trip because it's like staying in a dormitory.

Excellent choice

I chose this hotel for its locality to all amenities. It was so central to everywhere we needed to go, we were able to walk to everything Covent Garden Leicester Square. The hotel upgraded our room with no extra cost to us due to renovation work taking in the hotel, the room was clean & tidy tea & coffee facilities available and the room was cleaned whilst we were out on the second day of our 3 day stay. I would certainly recommend this hotel to family and friends.

The staff and location were good. My 3 star rating is because there are not enough elevators for the number of hotel rooms. Guests were walking down 9 sets of stairs rather than wait 15 minutes for the elevator. When leaving with luggage, you had no choice but to wait it out.

Avoid!

Very very shabby hotel, rooms were tiny and the bathroom door wouldn’t close. Poor WiFi. Slow lifts in the main lobby. When we checked in and were allocated a room, we trailed to it with all our bags to find it hadn’t been cleaned from the previous occupants. Poor food options after 10pm. I would never stay there again.

The location was perfect for entertainment and shopping. The lobby was very clean but there was always queues for the lifts and they were very slow, some people used the stairs but I was on the 6th floor. I had a double urban room, which had air con and was clean but was tiny and the bathroom was very snug too. Ok for a 1 night stay.
