“Great location - value for money”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 18, 2013

Just stayed at the Strand Palace. Room was very clean and comfy. Staff very welcoming. I even asked to see some more expensive rooms for a visit in the future. I was straight away shown three rooms to compare. The location for Covent Garden was great. Plenty of places to get food or drinks. Would I go again? Yes most definately.

Room Tip: Just ask. Many different types of room available.

“Great hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 18, 2013

This is the fourth time I have stayed at the Strand Palace and again we all really enjoyed it. Rooms and public areas were all spotlessly clean and beds really comfortable. We choose this hotel mainly because of the location which is within walking distance of loads of attractions and just beside Covent Garden. Buffet breakfast was great, the only criticism is that waiting staff were slow to bring tea/coffee and clear dirty plates from the table and we had to pile ours up in the middle of the table to make room for the next course, but apart from that everything was great and I would definitely stay again.

“Good Hotel and Easy access”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 17, 2013

Stayed at this hotel last november, had a pleasant stay.
Rooms were clean and good. Easy access to the tube stations and covent garden.
Check in and Check out was easy, also the breakfast was very splendid.
The only problem here is that the entire hotel is a non-smoking facility and hence i had keep running out for my cigarettes.

“Close to attractions”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 17, 2013

Stayed here 2 nights in a superior club twin. The room size is adequate if you have carry on sized luggage. Anything that is larger makes it too difficult to get around a room of this size. The bathroom was lovely - smartly renovated with toiletries and large sized bath towels. The walls are a bit thin - any noisy people in the hall can be heard late at night. However we overcame this by using the electric fan as white noise and this solved the problem.
The hotel is very large and has a few restaurants in house to choose from. Just outside the front door is a dedicated breakfast spot with lots of choices. As for other meals you can do very nicely by visiting Covent Garden for the great food on offer in the cobblestone courtyard for around five pound. Or you can splash out at the Savoy across the road and see a show at the same time.
All up the location is a winner - close to three tube stations - but with large luggage the best one is Covent Garden. Decent rooms with a couple of minor drawbacks and a range of food and prices to choose from.

Room Tip: Basic rooms are on the small side if you have large luggage.
