Travelled with my 8year old for a trip to see Matilda. Hotel 15mins walk from Covent Garden with bus stop right outside so great location. Our room was tiny so it’s lucky we only had a sleep in there. It had everything we needed but the bed was very hard and only had feather pillows. Breakfast selection not designed for UK guests.

There was construction outside of the property that included drilling & jackhammering. Not really the hotels fault, but what is there fault is that they put us in a basement room. So we had the privilege of listening to the jackhammers at all hours. Also, they clearly covered crumbling floors with rubber mats or something because the floor just dipped into a hole when you stepped on them. They apologized and offered us a free drink on the way out, but I would have preferred they were proactive in their hospitality approach.

Great London Location

The Z Hotel was a perfect 2 day stay in London. My goal was to see great art and get a feel for Bankside. Within walking distance was Tate Modern, Somerset House, Bankside Gallery, Globe Theater, Covent Garden, and West End theaters. The hotel staff were super friendly and accommodating. The room was small with no window but it was clean and well designed. Definitely only room for one person. The little cafe was a bonus for an early cup of tea and a late night glass of wine.

When we got back to the hotel, we were shocked to find our luggage had been moved to another room without permission. Even worse, my son’s bag—with his iPad and cellphone inside—was left behind in the room along with other people’s belongings.

Fantastic location in the legal precinct code to everything - walk and/or tube/busses. Staff were great and responsive. Loved the cafe and the complimentary coffee and tea and daily wine and cheese if you are a member! Cafe food also good for light meals. Rooms aren’t big but perfect for me and I had a lovely view from my window. Room was very quiet. Great value for money. Had a maintenance issue in my room but was fixed quickly.

Quite a good option: pleasant, fairly comfortable

Quite a comfortable, cost-effective stay in a convenient, agreeable part of London. My room was small but had been thoughtfully kitted out with everything I needed. Might be a bit tight with two, though. Bed a bit firm but I slept well. They are still using individual packs of toiletries: nowadays I really prefer dispensers fixed to the wall. Breakfast was OK, though nothing to write home about. The little cafe-restaurant was quite crowded - not helped by a member of staff blocking one table apparently working out duty rosters etc.. Quite a nice, basic hotel: I would (shall!) return.

Spontaneous Day Trip

Short trip to London and was looking for a reasonable stay since London is so expensive. Relatively decent price, very tiny, tiny room. View left something to be desired but it served the purpose of needing a place to sleep and shower for a night. Bed was very firm and the room was pretty hot even with the AC on.

Area is pretty central, but still a good 15-30 minute walk to pretty much anything. Sheets were stained, room is small. For the price it is not bad. (Besides the stained sheets)
