Ideally located ... but dated.

Friendly staff, helpful. Clean and confortable bed, with useful desk in room. Really good central location close to everthing we needed while in London Very dated, carpets of age with deteriation. Door undercut to let alot of light through during the night. Bathroom clean but age does not help. Hairs in bath.

Historic, well located and managed Hyde Park property. Conveniently located to subway and buses. Older property, but incredible daily maid service and kind staff. I would stay here again.

Great stay!

Great location, right next to hyde park and a few minutes walk from the tube. All the staff were really friendly and helpful. Bar area was really nice and the room was a good size with a really comfy bed. Some of the decor like the furniture and bathroom were dated but all really clean! No aircon in the room so does get hot but a fan was provided which was a bonus! Great stay and would definitely stay again and recommend!
Bethany, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Was in a good quiet neighborhood. Room was clean but a little small and shower was not good. Hotel was dated, not much amenities, overpriced breakfast and drinks.

A wonderful hotel that never disappoints
Paul, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Fairly inexpensive, close to a lot of diverse restaurants, within a 1-2 mile walking distance of a lot of touristy things. Across the street from a huge park but beware allergies! I would say the hotel bathrooms need an upgrade but the beds were fabulous. Older furniture and wear/tear of the room but didn't prevent us from having a good time.
Miranda, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

Great location but …

Great location but olde worlde room .. bathroom was straight out the 80’s 😂… staff were great pleasant & helpful & parked the van for £10
Paul, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great expirience overall

We had a great time. The location was incredible and the staff very friendly. As the hotel is old, our floor cracked a lot as we walk ( or the neighbors). You coul also ear through the walls, so I do not recomend if you are a light-sleeper.
CONSUELO, 7-night trip

6/10 Good

The hotel itself is dated and deserves to be brought back to its glory. Squeeky floors most prevalent. Staff was excellent and the area is desireable.
