This hotel is very atmospheric and has really good food. It's also very well hidden, despite being right in the thick of things, only metres away from Tottenham Court Road.

he people who work there are great. Everyone from the doorman to the concierge was friendly and helpful. However they couldn't compensate for the awful room. The bathroom was the smallest I have ever seen in a hotel, so tiny I had to enter the shower sideways. The furniture in the room was too big for the space and looked like it was 50 years old. Just a very uncomfortable room with not enough space to open our suitcases. Just not a five star experience and not worth the price. I would definitely not return.

Lovely Boutique Hotel

Beautiful boutique hotel. Very nice staff, lovely rooms. ONLY complaint was lighting. Very hard to put on makeup - bring a portable light with you! Both onsite restaurants and room service were good. Expensive, but good!
