Carmelo, London

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
A nicely decorated hotel, certainly not luxury but lovely. My room wasn't great, no balcony as advertised, the view was another wall and smell coming in from the restaurant downstairs. Despite it all, the real luxury in this hotel are the people working there, everyone, from the porter to the reception guys to the breakfast lady, were so nice and considerate that made my stay the best I could have. I felt safe and taken care of, which is something you want when solo travelling. Thanks Royal Victoria!

The customer service was the worst ever one that I have experienced so far in my life. The front desk was so unprofessional and was behaving us like thieves. He was so rude and aggressive. I do not go back to this hotel and do not recommend this hotel to anyone.

The customer service was terrible. The way the front desk behaved us was like catching a thief. The front desk should first get trained how to talk with customers and start working. They behaved us so aggressively, so we decided not to stay the night there and left. And stayed the other left night somewhere else since we felt offended and unsecure

Disliked: Amenities
The hotel is interesting to stay at for its architecture, but it disappoints in all other respects. The furniture is uncomfortable, from the hard bed to the lack of comfortable sitting opportunities inside the room and in the common areas. The breakfast has a lot of choice, but the food itself is poor. The restaurant is tired. It can get very loud on the square outside. We were first put in a tiny room which I believe was a single room, but after asking twice we were moved to a bigger room on the following day.
