“Expected much more for £100.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed December 31, 2012

You don't really expect to complain within 5 mins of being in our room, but we did. Sticky carpet, either old gum or carpet glue, a toilet that wouldn't stop filling and a sink that took an age to empty, ie blocked!! Bed was comfy and plenty of hot water for a shower. Continental Breakfast, minus the Continental was an experience....2 white and 2 brown slices of toast were plonked in front of us, not a croissant in sight. On our way out, the metal handles on the exterior of the front door were being vigorously cleaned to within a mm of its coating....if only they would apply half the energy to making sure that the rooms are ready for paying guests!!
We shall not be returning or recommending.

“I will not stay here again”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed December 15, 2012 via mobile

The night staff was very rude, room had mold and no hot water for shower. The sheets were clean but the beds were plain bad. The only good thing about the hotel is its near the underground station and lots of restaurants.

“Very disappointing”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed November 30, 2012

Only stayed one night but had no heating, no hot water, double bed had 2 separate small duvets not big enought to wrap around.

Room was ok but no glasses/cups in bathroom, no plug in sink andf hole so big we lost the soap down it!

No curtain or blind at bathroom window - but too cold to shower anyway

Were told to leave keys at reception when going out but it was locked and unmanned

Breakfast very poor - cereal and toast, margarine no butter.

To be fair to manager when multiple guests complained he has offered a full refund to all - will wait and see if it materialises.

Traffic noise was horrendous and windows did not seem to block any of this

“You get what you pay for ! It does exactly what is says on the tin. !!!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed November 20, 2012 via mobile

I stayed in this hotel for a Girly weekend away. After reading previous reviews I was worried sick ! The hotel is clean, tidy, the beds were fine and the bathroom was new and clean. The staff couldn't have been more helpful and the location was brilliant !! For the price you pay you can't really go wrong!! If you want the Ritz then stay at the Ritz!!!!!!!
