I took my husband here for afternoon tea as something to look forward to after just getting back from our honeymoon and I booked this as a deal from Living Social. Overall it was very average and there are better places to go in London for afternoon tea (e.g. The Milestone or The Orangery at Kensington Palace) - I wouldn't... More

I stayed in this hotel for one night (arriving late and leaving after breakfast). The room was rather small, but in absolute mint condition. Coffee and tea making facilities are available ; the bed offered me a good night sleep. I was less enthusiastic about the reception when I arrived. My impression was that my English was better than his... More

The staff were pleasant and professional The only let down was... More

Hotel was great surprise, as it was recently renewed and I was upgraded to superior room on 7th floor. Room was spacious for London hotels and included flat screen TV, coffee-tea making facilities and very nice bathroom with bathtube. As there are not so many rooms on one floor, it is pretty quiet. Windows to the street are soundproof and... More
