Excellent Saturday – Sunday weekend away at this London hotel which is situated would you believe smack opposite Hyde Park. However, deluxe room 131 which is massive and on the first floor doesn’t have such a view in fact it doesn’t have a view at all!! Unless your a fan of bricks or an air con engineer. That said the...

We stayed for 5 nights in May- pre booked on the 50% off online sale, which allowed us to stay in a junior suite for 150 pounds per night. Would not have paid full price but have to say we were very happy with our room (202). On entering the hotel you are hit with the nicest smelling lobby I... More

My friend and I stayed 5 nights at the Thistle Hyde Park in May 2012. It is a lovely old Victorian building that has been renovated. There are chandeleirs in dining room and in our bedroom which added to the ambiance. Our bathroom was updated and clean. The only problem we had was the air-conditioning didn't seem to work. Engineers... More

I stayed here with my wife for one night B&B and was impressed. This old building has a lovely ambiance with lots of lovely portraits around and some nice detailing. It's not cheap but it sits alongside Hyde Park. On Sunday, painters arrive by the score and sell their canvases on the Bayswater Road. From here, Buckingham Palace is a... More

So stayed at Thistle hotels in London many many times, often for budget reasons. Most stays up until now have been rather dissappointing, most often because of the room quality and especially size, but this time it was different. stayed in a deluxe twin (room 303) with a small view of Hyde Park, and I was really enjoying the room....

Charming little hotel across the road from Hyde park and within walking distance of three different stations. The hotel isn't exactly close to any one station, it's in between two underground stations (Lancaster Gate and Queensway) so it's actually a bit of a walk to get there. Staff are charming and helping (with the exception of one very unfriendly receptionist,... More

We stayed in Room 226. The reception and staff were very helpful and the reception and bar are lovely as its such a beautiful old building. The bedroom however was a different story. Heavy water stains on ceiling and the chandelier was filthy and partially working. The powerpoint by the side of the bed has a massive hole in the... More

We stay at Thistle hotels as part of or company scheme and I always find them rather uninspiring and old fashioned. I was pleasantly surprised therefore to enter my room and see high cielings, huge cupboards and a big bathroom with a huge 'cant reach the end with your toes' bath. It was all newly painted (on top of old... More

I had a bargain offer from London Park Lane, but on the advice of Pakistan Embassy I tried this hotel and have not regretted. The location, on the edge of Hyde Park,served by bus 148 for Oxford Street and 94 for Picadilly Circus is very convenient. Lancaster Gate tube station is also close where the staff seems to be rude.... More
