8/10 Very good

Nice clean, large room. Recently modernised although still with the shower in the bath tub. Room was quiet enough during the day and for most of the night. Unfortunately it was located over the delivery entrance for the hotel so was noisy from 6am. Very welcoming and friendly staff.
The historic Down Street underground station is beside the hotel. This station closed shortly after it opened due to lack of demand from residents of Mayfair and the opening of nearby Hyde Park Corner Station. It was used as a bomb shelter in WW2.

This is a great hotel close to a few restaurants and Buckingham Palace. We especially enjoyed Sofra around the corner. There is a mini mart on a side street and an M&S close by. Very nice staff. Great walkable park right across the street.
