Christmas shopping
The hotel is in a great location for west end, Christmas markets, China town. Requested an upgrade and we did indeed have an upgraded room. Really comfy bed. It was our anniversary and when we got back to the room we had 2 small bottles of Prosecco. Nice touch! Thank you. Wonderful 2 night stay.

Well located hotel near Theatreland. Very comfortable room on 5th floor with supersize kingsize bed . Very clean room with an en-suite shower room ( shower was very powerful & lots of hot water & towels)

2/10 Poor

Disappointing
Upon check in we discovered we had been allocated an accessible room despite not requiring or requseting one. The facilities made it impossible or uncomfortable to use the bathroom. We complained, but were told that there were no available rooms to move us to and were told to talk to Lisa , the dury manager at 7am the following morning. I spoke to Lisa and explained the issue stating that we weren't able to shower the previous evening nor the morning for breakfast. We were offereda late check out but i told her we had a car picking us up at 10.30 to take us home.

Mediocre
Breakfast and the hotel were good but the staff could do with a personality refurb. Bar was closed when we were in the hotel so nothing available after 10pm.
