    The staff surprised us with a delicious marshmallow bouquet that made our stay extra special.

    The bathroom could use more space for comfort.

    great location
    friendly service
    lack of pool area

    We had an amazing stay exploring London! The hotel is perfectly located. we breezed over to Buckingham Palace, and even stopped by the National Gallery and Piccadilly Circus—all in a day's walk. The service was stellar too, especially thanks to Emmanuel's friendly greetings and the lovely fresh scones at breakfast.

    My kids wished for a family-friendly pool area. A little splash zone would have made it perfect for them.

    fantastic breakfast
    spa treatments
    peaceful lounge
    slow bar service

    We had a lovely time enjoying the spa treatments and relaxing in the peaceful lounge area. The breakfast was fantastic, with tons of choices, and I especially appreciated the attention to my dietary needs. Just a heads-up, it took a bit longer to get our drinks at the bar, but it didn’t ruin our experience at all! 😊

    enjoyable breakfast
    attentive staff

    I stayed with my daughter while visiting to see a concert. Our room was quiet with a view of Pall Mall. Breakfast was enjoyable in the restaurant, and we both had the blueberry pancakes, which were a highlight. The staff were attentive and made our stay pleasant.
