We stayed here for three nights for our Honeymoon and the hotel was wonderful. We arrived early and our room was ready and they let us check in early. We stayed in an executive room which was spacious, modern and very quiet. A lovely touch as we were celebrating was the arrival of a cake to congratulate us on our... More

I have stayed at this hotel before and again we found it to be everything you expect from this prestigious hotel. The room was small but warm and quiet; and the executive lounge can get quite busy. The staff are excellent from reception all the way through. We asked the concierge for a restaurant suggestion and he immediately bought up... More

Visited the hotel for afternoon tea and have to say it was beautiful! Staff were very friendly and on hand at all times! The choice of teas was good and we were able to change the sandwiches when we saw there was salmon, as not able to eat it, there was no problem with this. Overall lovely experience!

Wow what a disappointment we had when walking into our room today. With the high cost and great location and five stars we expected so much more. This is NOT a five star (three at best). It's run down and the rooms are ridiculously small. For a rack rate around $400 we had a double sized bed! That's right -... More

The staff here make the hotel! They are amazing! So very friendly. The location is great. You can walk to two different Underground lines from this hotel. One of the two lines goes to the Heathrow Airport. The hotel has been around awhile and our room had been updated. The Executive Lounge is worth upgrading to if you have the... More

This is not a 5 star hotel. It is more like a 3.5 star hotel. On the positive side, it is walking distance to the Theatres, restuarants, Covent Garden. The doormen and the bellboys are good. After that, it is marginal. The walls are thin, the ceiling was thin and creaked as the people walked above our room. The floor... More

We stayed five nights. Hotel locatio is superb - close to Covent Garden with many restaurants and shops nearby. Deluxe rooms are very good - room size veries, between relatively small to spacy. Breakfast is faboulus. Fitness room and small pol are awailable. Service of staff is very freindly. Only catch - room rates are very high.
