Too warm

All great, have stayed before. But a bit too hot for me to sleep well. It’s meant to be a hotel that specialises in sleep, personally I think the air on needs to go colder .

Despite being across from the street from a police station, it was sooooooo quiet !!! Best sleep ever in a super comfy cozy bed !!! Room was very compact in size, but sooooooo well designed !!! Location was also sooooo close to Trafalgar Square and the National Gallery !! Staff were all soooooo accomodating as well. :-)

My boyfriend and I stayed here for 2 nights and really enjoyed our stay. It’s definitely a small space, but we didn’t need much room so it was great for us. Very central (walkable everywhere).

As a solo female traveller, I felt unsafe having a ground floor room that can be accessed by anyone off the street. The rooms were right next to the bar/café close to reception and didn’t require a key card to access this section of the hotel - this is a major security and safeguarding issue. Thankfully, the sound proofing of the room worked well to eliminate outside noise (it’s in a very busy area), but there was constant noise in the corridor until at least 1am as people were in and out of the bar area and what sounded like suitcases and carts being wheeled up and down constantly. The room, whilst relatively clean, was extremely tired and in need of renovation. Whilst the tea/coffee and water provided were welcome, the unsealed bottle of water is not hygienic, and the milk packets were partially opened, so I wasn’t going to use them. Reception and bar staff are lovely though. Only had a drink in the bar, but the evening food I saw being prepared looked very nice and was a relatively decent price for central London. Didn’t stay for breakfast as £12 for a cheap pastries and coffee is not value in my opinion.

Not a single complaint

Worth the wait to stay at this hotel, the room was certainly big enough for me and in the perfect location to hit all the right spots. Well maintained and a great firm bed. All my needs were catered for with tea and coffee, water, hairdryer and great to have a full length mirror in the perfect location. Excellent customer service and ensured any request was met. Would return, probably for two nights next time. One just wasn’t enough.
