Breakfast was very good. Dinner was mediocre. Bar staff knowledge of wine was dreadful. And my toilet didn’t work the entire stay. However, room was lovely. As was the front desk staff. I’d stay agin, even in that room, as long as the loo is repaired.

The location is great and front desk staff and porters were all wonderful and professional. The hotel rooms itself even though functional really lacking modern touches( especially bathrooms) and space for proper comfort and most of the furniture feels dated and making quite a lot of old school noises like loud banging of shutting doors and drawers. Breakfast buffet has a lot of potential with interesting unusual choices like cute crudités, but feels rather limited otherwise with some items such smoked salmon instantly disappearing and not being regularly refilled. Overall there was a slight sense of disappointment because of higher expectations for a five star Mayfair experience!
