Great place to stay
Lovely room great bed, comfortable and spacious room has desk and lounge chair. Nespresso espresso machine was well used. Rained shower was delicious. Lively view of Swiss Court and holiday revelers, no noise. Best blackout curtains ever! Helpful and friendly staff worked with me to quickly salvage lodging at last minute. Every staff member I interacted with was pleasant and engaging.

Poor service and a take it or leave it attitude.
Appalling as Katarina advised our room that we had booked several months earlier was gone! No apology. Either down grade or move hotels which we had no option but to do.
Have had excellent service on all previous occasions. Sadly cannot review this time as we were moved to the other thistle property. Still awaiting resolve!!

Brilliant location
Great location. Great room and clean. Checkin was slow as there was an issue with the system updating when a room was cleaned. Receptionist was very good and did her best to resolve. Maid also came into the room once we had go in with no knock. Also felt rushed out the room at 9am as again the maid knocked the door asking if we were checking out. Spoke to reception upon checkout and they were very apologetic.

THISTLE DELIVERING TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE.
The hotel waited for me to arrive before informing that the room wasnt available then sent me by taxi an hour across London to a sister hotel, no upgrade, no compensation, no acknowledgement...very poor customer service

Great hotel only minutes from theatres
I was impressed by the standard of the bed linen, towels and can do attitude of the staff- right from the chef to the house keeper. The breakfast was so fresh and appealing- good selection of hot and cold food and little touches like fresh parsley on the scrambled eggs was much appreciated

Very dark room but otherwise a nice option
The room is comfortable and clean. My big complaint is it’s so dark! The lighting is really inadequate to do simple tasks after sundown. They need a dimmer system or more lamps- it’s really not good.

Hotel is in a perfect location. Can walk to pretty much any area in London. Room is very small and hotel has no bar.
