Lovely greeting when I checked in. Every time I was going out for the day I was greeted by staff. One of the hottest weeks for the area and wasnt extremely hot inside the room. Not a far walk to all the sites. Quiet at night. Good food not far away and stores to grab stuff to take to the room right up the road.

The room, and the hotel were clean and quiet and the staff were really friendly. The hotel is in a reasonable area, a short walking distance from pubs, restaurants and shops, and an easy 20-30 minute walk to Westminster Abbey and the Houses of Parliament. NB: There is no lift in the hotel, no breakfast room and no facility for luggage storage.

This is a very small hotel. The rooms are also small. Their sinks are even smaller. While the location is convenient, and the staff very helpful, the facility is bare bones. It is best for a traveler who just needs a place to land

Excellent service. Staff were extremely pleasant and helpful! The hotel is cosy and has a great location. Would recommend for anyone looking for an affordable stay in the heart of London.

Great hotel run by a lovely lady whose name I forgot to take. As a solo female traveller I felt very safe and 'looked after'. I had two electric fans in the room which was more than enough to keep me cool in the heatwave. If you want up to date decor and all modcons then spend more and stay elsewhere, but for comfort and a great budget option this fits the bill. A short walk to Victoria Station and a 10 minute walk to reach the river.

Room was a little smaller than I was expecting and the en-suite bath was also small, but all were clean and well stocked. Very central to very famous sights, easily walkable and right next to a bus stop if you don’t want to walk. Fantastic restaurants nearby and Victoria station is less than 10min walk away. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Great price for the value!
