Fine dining, modern styling, and in the heart of theaterland

The Strand Palace Hotel London is ideally located within walking distance of many of London's major tourist attractions. Guests visiting the city on business can make use of the hotel's nine conference rooms. There are excellent transport links right outside the door, including tube stations and bus stops that further add to the hotel's convenient location. The hotel's interesting contrast of a very modern interior with a typically old-English exterior makes for a comfortable stay and the on-site bar and restaurant serves various European dishes and a traditional British carvery. Wi-Fi is free of charge and available throughout the entire hotel.

Reasons to stay
  • Located in Covent Garden, just a few minutes' walk from London's most prestigious theaters
  • A selection of nine different meeting venues to choose from, making it ideal for business travelers
  • Contemporary and modern interior within a traditional British building

a very good hotel, in fact excellent, but not easy for poeple with mobility problems. My wife uses a wheel chair (able to walk short distances) the lifts are small and temperamental. The side door has a ramp but then two sets of very heavy doors to negotiate. This is a small problem but I feel worth mentioning.

The hotel is situated very convenient

The hotel is situated very convenient both to the City and Theatre land. The staff is friendly and very service minded, The breakfast arrangement in the Carvery is my only complaint. It is much easier to just pop put to one of the nearby breakfast joints.

Well run hotel. Very convenient

Well run hotel. Very convenient for Covent Garden and therefore close to many bars restaurants and theatres. Excellent staff. We had a minor issue with our room and on pointing this out at reception we were immediately moved to another room. Pricey enough but to be expected for its location.
