    I got a complimentary upgrade, so the view was wonderful. Also the size of the room was good, plant of unfussy space.

    Nothing in particular. The (empty) fridge buzzed all night and there was no teaspoon. But that’s all.

    5.0

    Good location for sightseeing. Quiet area. Great staff and good food.

    Bar closed at 22.30 with limited public seating area to finish drinks. Most areas, apart from the foyer, in need of updating. Toilet in room was faulty on arrival but fixed fairly quickly. Our room, a Superior Double, only had one dining type chair, a huge table and chest of drawers which would benefit from being swapp…

    Location and breakfast were good.

    The hotel is in a good location, which is one of its main advantages. However, unfortunately, our experience with the reception staff was disappointing, particularly regarding their treatment of guests. Our flight was delayed, and when we finally arrived at the hotel, the receptionist initially refused to give us our…

    Great check in, good upsell by Rida

    As 4 star hotel would expect to have tea served in a cup/mug not a takeout cup having been asked if we were drinking in. Also pieces of cake should be on a plate not served in an envelope. In the cafe off the lobby/reception area.

  • Location perfect, neat, clean, cheap, great Brekky good pub and grab snax anytime at night etc very easy

    9.0

    Gem in London it’s pretty average really but it’s cheap, locations is super and breakfast is perfect. For the price it’s super but it’s not luxurious by any means. I love it stay here on my own often. Rooms are clean near. Always comfy and air conditioned and or heated. Staff are patient and organised on the whole.

    It’s pretty average but its location, and price are perfect if you like this area.
