I stayed for 3 nights from 14th May - 16th May 2012 while attending a conference which was being held at the hotel. Due to the conference we were offered a discounted room rate 180.00 GBP per night room only and free internet access (which didn’t work very well). Firstly I will say, great location, right opposite Hyde Park, a... More

Stayed there for one night. Positives: - Clean, relatively modern room with sufficient space for one or two people. - Reasonable bed (don't like hard mattresses myself but everyone's different). - Complimentary chocolates delivered to your room on arrival. - Good food. Mine was delivered about an hour late but they apologised and gave me more free chocolates and a... More

Our first trip to London and chose the Lancaster based on location and previous reviews. We were very happy with our stay. Rooms are small by American standards, but were well appointed, spotless and comfortable. The 110v outlet was a great touch. The staff were wonderful, especially Laszlo the conceirge. I don't think he expected us to make it back... More

Lovely hotel and the staff were very helpful at all times. A great location and close to the tube. Hotel very clean and nice breakfast each morning. The only thing we weren't impressed with was the Internet costs each day. 17 pound a day. I think all hotels should be free, especially if you are paying a lot of money... More

The hotel has undertaken major refits on so many rooms, squeezing as much out of the budget as possible, where thought about cost has dictated over quality & customer needs. Oversized Lightbulbs glaring out of the top on understated lampshades. Curtains not closing & pictures you would see in a charity shop. The complimentary bathroom & tea tray items are... More

I stayed at the Lancaster for a conference. To be blunt, if I had booked this hotel for a personal trip or weekend getaway to London I would have checked out immediately and gone elsewhere. You pay for the location and not much else. The Good: 1. Service was friendly and courteous. 2. Bed was very comfortable. I appreciate a... More

We spent three nights at this hotel just across the street from Hyde Park. Our room had a view overlooking the park and a magnificent panoramic scene of downtown London in the distance (although frequently obscured by rain and clouds). There was immediate access to both tube and bus transit. The buffet breakfast was truly outstanding despite the large numbers... More

My stay there was a surprise with highs and lows.The mentality and attitude of the staff was excellent. Everybody was polite and helpful, reflecting a high-standard hotel. But that was it. The room was below average and not spacious as expected. Moreover, you had to pay too much money to have internet in your room. And this is not acceptable.... More

Fantastic location - literally next door to tube station and bus stop - straight into Central London. Cross the road and you're into Kensington Gardens/Hyde Park. There are some of Boris's bikes available also, but we didn't get round to trying them out. Desk staff are very helpful, professional and friendly, as are the porters/concierges. Very clean and well maintained.... More
