Absolutely fantastic stay. The staff could not do enough for us. After I mentioned it was the end of his SATS week, they upgraded us and made his and my entire year. They were kind and thoughtful and so friendly. Best hotel I’ve stayed in in London! Room was lovely and bed comfy. Decor lovely too.

I don't know where to start. On check-in, our room was described as luxury - 30 years ago this may have been true. Holes in the carpet, tatty, old furniture, torn valance, tiny, claustrophobic bathroom, sticky biscuit packets, stained, old pillows. Generally, if we hadn't been rushing off to an appointment, we wouldn't have stayed

Disappointing

Room was extremely hot and a weird smell in corridor (smelt of weed) which drifted into my room. Not very pleasant.

The property is a lot older than I expected and our room smelled of wet dog for some reason. Walls are paper thin and I could hear the screaming from the floors above us and people coming out of the lifts as our room was situated near the lift. We asked to get the room cleaned each day and they didn't stock up on toilet paper and any other toiletries. However, the hotel is very close to the tube and convenient to travel to central London. It was within walking distance to convenience stores and a few restaurants too.

Clean but needs updating.

The room was clean but the bathroom was in need of an upgrade. It was very dated and showed its age. The bed was really hard and uncomfortable. Staff seemed nice but didnt acknowledge the birthday of one of us despite a prior email from the hotel saying they would make the stay special. No fridge in the room which meant the bottled water in the room was luke warm due to the hot sun shining in all day prior to check in. At night, the door was open and we went straight into the lift without seeing night staff. The lift was not activated by a key so anyone could have accessed the building and various floors. The hall ways and lift need some attention to fix/redecorate etc... The hotel was advertised as 4* but it felt very much like a 3*.
