The hotel was a quiet Street underground, breakfast places. It’s a very safe area with lots of nice city walks to enjoy.

Really clean and comfortable. Airconditioning was perfect.

Wished the room was bigger. Also would have been good if there was a ramp. It was hard to bring a large suitcase up and down the stairs leading to the lobby or the adjacent buildings to get to my room.

Perfect, will book again.

Everything was perfect, clean, modern, lift and AC. The room was spacious for a central london hotel. Location was great and staff were wonderful.

Nothing.
