Usual over priced London hotel. Room was okay, nothing special. The breakfast buffet selection was as expected but the cooked food (bacon, sausage, mushrooms, eggs, hash browns, tomato) were all stone cold and the bacon was tough as old boots, needed a chain saw to cut through it. Won't be staying again as hotel did nothing to entice me back.

Excellent hotel - great staff, spacious and clean room, tasty breakfast and amazing location. Once we got home, we actually started looking when we can come back to London and stay in this hotel again.

Situated on a busy street this hotel is close to an underground station and bus services.. Plenty of restaurants nearby.. Hyde Park is a 10 minute walk.. The hotel is nice and quiet and the rooms a good size.. Negative points.. The corridors had a musty odeur... The room air conditioning was not working... Hot water took ages to arrive at tap / shower.. I didn't take breakfast (£15) as there are plenty of cheaper places nearby..

Location of Hotel was great and the beds were comfortable, the breakfast had everything you need (only the coffee was not really barista style). The AC was too loud and you cannot control the temperature and not even open the windows more then a few cm. The carpets in the room and hall seemed old.( better no carpets at all, less dust & sticky air ) There were a lot of ants in our bathroom and even on the TV and we reported it to the staff twice but apparently it seems that they have been there for years.
