STAY AWAY FAR FAR AWAY
I am giving bonstars due to the fact that they offered zero assistance when my entire trip was cancelled and I was hospitalized. They absolutely refused to offer a credit for future stay or even consider charging me a one night fee.

Probably one of the best London Hotels
From initial checkin, through to final checkout, it is really difficult to fault any aspect of this hotel. For me its the small detail, staff and location that really makes a hotel, and this hotel delivers. Large comfy king beds, quiet clean room full of luxury touches. Located in walking distance to all sights. Breakfast on the rooftop is a must!

We arrived early and exhausted and no room was supposedly available. The staff was not accommodating, but offered an immediate room at an extra charge of about $250/day for an 8 day stay! We declined, and staff said they’d “text us” when a room was available- never happened. Four hours later we returned, inquired about the room, and were reluctantly given a crummy, dinky room on the second floor. By this time we’d been awake for about 26 hours so we took the room.
This was an expensive, premium booking and we were very disappointed with our treatment and accomodations. The location was fantastic, but the hotel experience was deplorable. We’ll make another choice next time.

Amazing staff and location!
Staff could not have been nicer or more professional-from check in to concierge to restaurant staff. Location was wonderful. Hotel had limited amenities but London was right aside the door! View from rooftop bar was amazing… food not so much.

Great location.
I had to mark the hotel down for "Comfort" but only because of the refurbishment works being carried on around the lift area.
A terrific location for theatre land.
The staff in the lobby were exceptionally friendly and helpful.

The hotel was exuding opulence. I liked the comfort and cleanliness of the room. The hotel also is within walking distance of a lot of tourist spots.
