Great stay, fantastic location

Great location, staff were kind and friendly and went out of their way to make sure everything was ok, room was great. Amenities were brilliant, bed comfortable loved the dressing gowns! Some really great touches. Only downside was that we had a wake up call at 7am we didn't ask for but when I mentioned this I was happy with their quick response. Great location, we walked to Buckingham palace one way and Piccadilly Circus, china town the other way. Quiet road in the heart of London.

One of my favourite hotels in London! The location is brilliantly central (just behind Fortnum & Mason on Piccadilly) with lots of restaurants, shops, attractions, theatre & Tube stations a quick walk away. Rooms are comfortable and well appointed for a special stay.
