A very grand hotel set in what was once a school. All the staff were superlative in their attention to detail and their welcome. We have been to the LaLit before and love the Indian vibe to the place (it is an Indian owned franchise). The rooms were spotless. The beds were lovely and firm and -bliss of bliss -we had a selection of both hard and really soft pillows. I don’t know why but as you get older your pillows become critical to your sleep quality. Also intriguing were the Oriental style jet-wash toilets! Hours of innocent fun to be had testing the settings. As a London tour guide with a wide experience of the capital’s hotels I recommend LaLit for its staff, location and welcoming ambience. Also -try the Indian breakfast ! Delicious !

We went for afternoon tea. Fabulous experience on Mother's Day for our group of 11. Attentive service and very good food which was Indian. The continuous flow of masala chai was much appreciated. I highly recommend this experience.

Our stay at the LaLit London was amazing. The hotel itself is stunning and beautiful decorated. The rooms are also beautiful, well decorated and furnished and clean. The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive and we would love to return for our next special occasion. The cooked breakfast was super delicious and all the other pastries, fruit, cold meats and cheeses were was pure indulgence. And to have it in such a beautiful room was best way we could end our nights stay in such a fabulous hotel. Great location too for people taking in the sights of the city. Me and my husband couldn’t recommend this hotel enough and will look to return at our next available opportunity. We booked directly with hotel who gave us a great price. A big thank you to Anini in Reservations who ensured our stay was extra special. …

We had the pleasure to stay at The LaLit, London for 1 night to catch up with family, after a hospital appointment had been cancelled. We decided to go anyway, and are so glad we did. We were warmly welcomed by Shaba, who very generously upgraded our room to the beautiful Mountford Suite. The room was stylish and spotless, and very comfortable. Every time we came and went either Shaba or another staff member, greeted us and asked after our day. Breakfast the next morning was plentiful and tasty, and the staff again very welcoming. On checkout we were still treated attentively, and they hoped that we would return. The Lalit is a gem.
