The staff were very helpful. Whilst the room was nice and clean, it was small with signs of wear in the bathroom. The light switches were also overly complicated. We couldn’t fault the location, it’s in such a great spot. Overall we had a nice stay.

Stayed here a few times. I don’t think we will be back as it no longer feels like a premium 5 star hotel. Rooms have scuffed up decor which I know can’t always be helped

Excellent service, received glass of fizz on arrival, free room upgrade. We were in London to do wedding shopping and the hotel service was just excellent. Only a 5 minute walk from Holborn tube station, which you can get to directly from Heathrow! I would stay here again in a heart beat!! My only critical remark would be that I think it’s quite a lot to charge service for a drink and then request an additional tip on top (which is discretionary of course) but I guess that’s the times we live in! Thanks again and we will be back.

The room was clean. Only complaints are could not keep the sink stopper up, we had to place toilet paper to prop it up. The cups were not replaced in the room. I used one and left it downstairs. The beds and pillows were comfortable. We had robes, slippers, nespresso and the mini fridge was stocked with water, soda, one time only but the water more than once. The staff was very helpful, from the front desk, servers and housekeepers. Awesome toiletries, great shower. Heater worked wonderfully. The breakfast is expensive, little choice and bland.

The service was friendly and attentive. The location is really convenient, ten minute walk to convent garden, yet it's quiet enough. The building is clean and well kept. We stayed in the standard room offering which was more than enough room for a couple. The bed was comfort and a good size. Pillows comfy as well. The bathroom was clean and in good condition. The bathrobes and slippers a nice to have, plus Nespresso coffee machine and pods. It's well worth staying here and I would recommend.
