Wonderful hospitality in central London
10.0The hospitality from all staff was exceptional from start to finish. We received an upgrade to a 2 bedroom apartment which made it extremely convenient for us. We tried all 4 restaurants and found the food and ambience to be just perfect. The location was so central as well.

A great lovation, excellent restaurants, a little tired
7.0The location and the choice of restaurants within the hotel.
The rooms are a bit tired - the small living room was very outdated and cluttered - if it was mine, I would be embarrassed by its appearance, not inviting in any way. The main bar shits at 11pm - in the centre of London?
