Beautiful hotel, nicely located and pleasant staff. The beds not comfortable, and we stayed during a warm evening so needed to have windows open and a fan on as no air con. So much noise outside till past 3am from maybe emptying of bins or other maintenance work meant I slept very little so not a comfortable experience.

Acceptable

Average hotel, rooms extremely small, could hardly move, shower very small, if you are large build you are bot getting in the shower. No air con, fan provided, room like a sauna, bad sleep due to extreme heat, staff friendly, super location for RAH and museums. Hotel ok for one night but would not want to stay any longer but pleasant enough.

Hope to return for a better experience.

Unfortunatly we had an incident during our stay that tainted the remainder of our trip. I was able to make my complaint and I am pleased to say this was delt with proffessionally and promptly and we are happy with the response. To that end, I have given a fair review as the room was adequate for our needs, it was very clean and the location was very good. I feel some investment would be beneficial to update the rooms , but the commitment of the manager to ensure that we were happy with the outcome and this would not happen again, was a very much appreciated. We hope to stay again and experience a better service.

Clean room and attentive staff

A good, clean room - not a bad price for London and a twin room. Unfortunately we were on the top (5th) floor on a very hot day/night, and the property being old doesn’t have air conditioning. However, the staff had already opened the windows and drawn the blinds and put a fan (on) in the room. They also brought up cool water and glasses for the room shortly after we went up. The staff were attentive and always happy to help where they could and the rooms were clean and had plenty of sockets. The bathroom was tiny but they still managed to get a decent shower in there. The hotel is a gorgeous period building and a lot of the original features remain including stained glass windows in the bar. I would definitely stay here again.
Victoria, 1-night trip
