We stayed in the townhouse section. The access to the townhouse rooms within the hotel are below average, and I suggest guests access from the street instead. The ceiling height was great, beds comfortable. The bathroom’s in the deluxe rooms need updating, as the furniture has warped wood and shower trays semi yellow from age. The WiFi was very poor, and the hotel did try to improve but failed. The spa is out of bounds to children even after having been told they could attend before making the booking, so this was disappointing. The lounge or 10th floor is a bonus, with wonderful views.

It’s a nice hotel, small in comparison to its competitors but convenient. Something about it is a little eerie, but the staff were kind and the check in was quick and smooth.

Too hot to handle.
The property is in a great location! The heart of Mayfair and surrounding landmarks. The staff were very friendly, the only problem I had was the comfort of the room. It was December and the room was very stuffy and warm. The windows were locked shut and no fresh air could circulate. It was difficult to get good sleep due to the warmth of the room even when it was turned to full cool and high fan. It felt like a central temp for entire building?
