Reception and check in all smooth. Requested tea bag replenishment and appeared smoothly. Only queries were over large to for room and position made it difficult to watch plus couldn’t control room temp through app and bathroom rad couldn’t get to work. But overall very happy with stay.

Lovely room — very clean, comfortable, and quiet. Lighting created a relaxing atmosphere. Bathroom lighting can be improved to have a light that can do makeup. The kitchen is nice but not functioning very well, e.g. coffee machine not working, nowhere to find the power on button of the vent, and it took forever for the stove to bring the water to boiling. Staff are friendly.

My go-to stay in London. The location is perfect (both a cute area and easy to take public transit around town) and it feels like home. The facilities downstairs (pool, movie room, etc) are such a fun touch. I initially picked it because they have some really lovely extras (sound baths!!!), but even if you're not into those extra options, it's a comfortable, serene place to relax and either rest at the property to set up a nice base to explore the city. LOVE having a kitchenette, especially if you're there on a short trip and can't really adjust to the time difference. Feels both luxurious and cosy, in the most wonderful way. A definite home away from home.

The hotel was perfect, exactly as described and in a lovely quiet but accessible location. The room we stayed in had 3 separated sleeping spaces so was brilliant for a family of 4 with two teenagers. The staff were also amazing, very helpful and accommodating. Pool and Sauna area also very nice. It was pricey, but it was value for money. Would highly recommend.

Staff very polite and friendly. The bed was very comfortable and the room was clean. The kitchenette was convenient and a great addition. However, the T.V. was completely misplaced—it faced the wall, making it impossible to watch, so I never used it. The hotel was quiet, and it’s within walking distance of Cromwell Hospital, which was very helpful.
