For the price it was ok. Not luxurious as it states. Plus point for us was safe parking but at a hefty price tag. Wouldn’t stay again.

Without a doubt the best hotel I’ve stayed in London. Great price, service and customer care was fantastic. We didn’t eat in the restaurants but the food looked amazing and the restaurants were very well looked after. Beds were large and comfortable, the hotel was very secure and well looked after. Great drinks/cocktails and offers for guests. Highly recommend!
