We are repeat guests of this wonderful hotel when we visit London. The location is perfect! The rooms are beautifully decorated. The staff is helpful and friendly. The restaurant downstairs is a very popular locals go-to eatery, which says it all.

The room was wonderful. Shower was fantastic with great water pressure. Beds were comfortable. Only thing was that we were in a twin room and the duvets were twin. Was hard to stay covered all night. Would have been even better with double/full sized duvet. Otherwise loved the close proximity to the underground station, and 3 minute walk to Westminster Abbey. Also had a stop right out front for the hop on/off bus tours. Very convenient. And the included breakfast was also excellent! Great stay!

Very convenient location. Fair price. Breakfast was good with enough different options. They let us check in early after arriving on a red eye which was great. Staff was very nice. Room was decent size stocked with everything you’d expect & was clean. Only complaint would be the beds were pretty uncomfortable - could feel the springs in the mattress when laying down in the standard 2 twin room. Wasn’t unbearable but not the most comfortable. All in- for the price & location you can’t beat it.

Great location, superb room and fantastic breakfast. Only negatives, where the night light in the bathroom was a little glaring/bright and there was a lot of noise in the hallway in the morning (not sure if staff or guests). Would definitely stay again!

Good location. Clean and helpful staff. But for what we paid I think we overpaid after a bit after looking at weekday rates once we were there.

This hotel is like a warm hug and the best stay on our 3 city trip. Fabio is Fabulous. Ashley is Amazing and we will never ever forget and LOVE Karen. Karen is more than a front desk staff and helped us plan excursions to make the most of our 2 day trip. Fabio was backup the next day helping us find the best routes. Did I mention breakfast - absolutely fantastic and best hotel breakfast we’ve ever had! I will 100% be staying here again and the location is fabulous. Extraordinarily well done - amazing stay! Thank you!

This was our second time staying here and the room upgrades and renovations they have made are very nice. We appreciated the water in the fridge and the coffee and creamer for the morning. The shower pressure and temperature was excellent and the beds and pillows were extremely comfortable. We will definitely be back!

Overnight stay 25/10/25

Myself and my wife stayed overnight at this absolutely charming establishment. Although the room was relatively small it was very clean, very eloquent and all that we could have wished for and so much more. There was a coffee machine with pods, a selection of lovely Twining teas and all the mod cons we had hoped for. The breakfast was exquisite and very tasty indeed. We both had full English breakfasts which was so tasty and filling. All the staff that we spoke to were very polite and happy people. We will definitely stay here again.
