Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
We stayed here last September and loved it. Coming back to London for another visit, it was a no brainer to stay there again. our room this time was awful! The small window opened up into an airshaft with the sounds of what seemed to be a working kitchen. We were told that this was the only room available. At least we knew that the location was good for us. The night before we were to checkout, we were told that all the streets were going to be closed in the morning and we would have to walk 3-4 blocks with our luggage to get a cab. Why we were never told this until the last minute is still a puzzle. In the morning, after checking out 3 hours early, we go outside only to find out that only our street was closed and we got a cab on the corner. Between the room and the nastiness of the staff, a third visit will never happen. Amazing on how everything changed over a 7 month period.

Staff very friendly and accommodating. Room was large and bed was comfortable. Our room faced onto the street so we ran the fan at the highest setting to conceal the street noise after our first night. The Charter Club room is very nice.its an older hotel well located for visiting sites.

Overall experience was pleasant. Great location walkable to all the major sites in westminster (big ben, westminster abbey etc.) Hotel was clean, and really like the purified water station with water bottles. However the room was really small and i got a bad view from the window. the lobby had no where to sit and wait. No ramp for your luggage. No easy parking.
