Beautiful Hotel, Hospitality touch missing

Whole experience feels very transactional. The staff in general don’t come across as warm . Only exception is the cheerful girl at the door . Nice parties and coffee/tea at the reception and location is 20 mins walk to Covent Garden Room is rather small

This property was very well located. The hotel facilities were in well maintained and luxurious. It is a renovated hotel and you can feel it. One of the two rooms was not as convenient as the shower ceiling was very short and was somehow inconvenient to take a shower. The staff could be more helpful, specially the Concierge.

Stepping into LUXURY and GLAMOUR - WOW

What can I say, it was my 50th Birthday and I wanted to do something special. I never find myself disappointed in London, its both mine and my partners favourite City in the world. We arrived at the Kimpton and both got the wow factor the minute we took the steps up into the beautiful iconic building. I was absolutely blown away by the architectural beauty within and if you are staying you have to go and find Lucky George. We only stayed one night but it was a night that I will never ever forget, Fitz's bar, cocktails and ambience. This vehicle has it all, step into this wonder and don't leave. I felt like I had stepped back in time and was surrounded by class. 5 HUGE STARS from me and a BIG thank you.
