Hassan on reception was absolutely fantastic, really professional and welcoming. We paid to upgrade our room to a deluxe King room, room very clean, bed comfortable. However, we returned extremely late at night to find the room very cold (weather was cold), but unfortunately the thermostat/ heating wouldn’t work, and there were no extra blankets in the room. We felt it was too late at night to report the issue, and just wanted to get to bed. I imagine that the hotel would’ve resolved the issue, had we raised it with them, as the staff were excellent.

The Hotel is located in a great district and close to a lot of great restaurants and places of interest. The stop for the hop on hop off bus and other transportation is right out front. Our room was very nice comfortanle and cean. Beds were comfortable. Breakfast was great. Really good food and lots of selection. Our waitress/hostess named Hina was very attentive; kind and helpful to everyone. She remembered us every day and made sure we got our special order eggs. She was also quick to make sure the food trays and bread etc were well stocked. We have recommended this hotel to friends planning a trip to London.
