Had an excellent stay at the Z hotel City. The staff are super friendly and helpful. We arrived early than check in time however our room was ready so they allocated the keys. Modular compact room with everything you need. Hot shower, lovely queen size bed and pillows, duvet. Free tea, coffee, shower gel, shampoo. Good quality towels. The room had air conditioning, and also super quiet. We had a room with a window with a nice view. We didn't book breakfast however it did look really good value for money, we had a speciality croissant with coffee which was really good. Thank you for holding our bags in our 2nd day so we could site see after we had checked out. All in all no complaints, would definitely recommend and will definitely be back. 5 stars from me.
What a tiny gem this Z hotel is. The super compact room is cleverly designed with maximum comfort and convenience. Ask for a back room. I had a huge window overlooking Temple court. Fabulous city of London location on historic Fleet Street. Short stroll to St. Paul’s, Temple Gardens, Thames, Samuel Johnson house and countless other historic sites. A real find, but newbies to London beware that the rooms are super small. Best value for London prices.
The room may not be to everyone’s liking but for an overnight central London stay it was good value, clean and perfectly sited
The room was very small, but it had all the requirements for me, if you want a window though, then choose carefully.
Travelled with my 8year old for a trip to see Matilda. Hotel 15mins walk from Covent Garden with bus stop right outside so great location. Our room was tiny so it’s lucky we only had a sleep in there. It had everything we needed but the bed was very hard and only had feather pillows. Breakfast selection not designed for UK guests.
There was construction outside of the property that included drilling & jackhammering. Not really the hotels fault, but what is there fault is that they put us in a basement room. So we had the privilege of listening to the jackhammers at all hours. Also, they clearly covered crumbling floors with rubber mats or something because the floor just dipped into a hole when you stepped on them. They apologized and offered us a free drink on the way out, but I would have preferred they were proactive in their hospitality approach.

Great London Location
The Z Hotel was a perfect 2 day stay in London. My goal was to see great art and get a feel for Bankside. Within walking distance was Tate Modern, Somerset House, Bankside Gallery, Globe Theater, Covent Garden, and West End theaters.
The hotel staff were super friendly and accommodating. The room was small with no window but it was clean and well designed. Definitely only room for one person. The little cafe was a bonus for an early cup of tea and a late night glass of wine.
When we got back to the hotel, we were shocked to find our luggage had been moved to another room without permission. Even worse, my son’s bag—with his iPad and cellphone inside—was left behind in the room along with other people’s belongings.
Fantastic location in the legal precinct code to everything - walk and/or tube/busses. Staff were great and responsive. Loved the cafe and the complimentary coffee and tea and daily wine and cheese if you are a member! Cafe food also good for light meals. Rooms aren’t big but perfect for me and I had a lovely view from my window. Room was very quiet. Great value for money. Had a maintenance issue in my room but was fixed quickly.
