The staff were lovely and attentive. The hotel was fine and whilst not luxury there was nothing wrong with it, clean had what we needed, reasonable breakfast but the location was fantastic and ideal. Would definitely stay there again. We don’t go away to stay in the hotel anyway.

Ok. Comfortable enough. Good location

Ok. Comfortable enough. Toilet didn’t flush properly if at all. Room was very hot when we arrived and had to ask reception to help us with the air cooling. Phoned for room service only to be told the kitchen was shut. Times on menu need to be rectified.

Our best deal in Central London.

The location on a quiet street just behind Leister Square is great. 10 minutes to Covent Garden, West End Shows and Piccadilly Circus without the outside noise. Breakfast was also great ( made omelettes to order plus full English breakfast buffet). Room size with king bed was great. Better value for the $$$ than some of the larger nearby properties. Premium linens and towels. You can use the gym at the Piccadilly property 100 yards up the street. Only negative was that the bathroom had very dim lighting.
