Very friendly staff, just like all the other comments. We were able to check in a little early thanks to a lovely woman at the front desk—so appreciated. Well-located. The room was decent, comfortable and clean, but missing a few details - like wash cloths, a shower that kind of overflows onto the bathroom floor since the drains didn’t empty quite fast enough, a random tooth brush found in the bathroom when we first arrived. None of these were dealbreakers and we had a perfectly nice stay, but just a little more focus on housekeeping details would have upped the impression.

To be honest, the hotel was much better before the renovation and change of name. The beds were more comfortable and the rooms were roomier. I was also really upset that you removed the refrigerator and the microwave. It's always nice to be able to heat something up and keep cold items. Very disappointing. This was my third time at this location but I won't be returning sadly. Also, I'm not in London to watch television but so many channels were gone :(

Overall, the hotel location in London was great and the staff were generally polite and helpful. The room was comfortable and our stay started well. However, I did experience an unfortunate situation during my stay. At one point my personal hygiene bag disappeared from the room and was later returned after I reported it, possibly having been accidentally discarded by housekeeping. Later during the stay, a gold ring that I had left on the nightstand went missing from my room. Aside from this issue, the hotel itself was pleasant, but I do hope management takes these incidents seriously so future guests can feel fully secure leaving personal belongings in their rooms.

Not a four star hotel. Bathroom clearly had sealent over old mould, the shower itself had mould, the bottom of the shower screen looked like it had never been cleaned and the sink itself was worn/dirty at the sink hole and the bathroom had a cracked floor... the bathrooms clearly had a bodge job rennovation as its still got plug holes in the walls from previous decor. Non of the doors have soft close so all youll hear is a constant thud from doors being closed. There is no bottled water in the rooms, no fridge. You can get a better standard of cleaniness at a premier inn. For a four star this place is what id call all fur coat and no knickers.
