LORRAINE, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

good value, good location

I booked a single bed room for 2 nights. The room was quite small, however it was functional and comfortable. Almost like a cruise boat cabin. Although the hotel is on a busy street, my room faced the back so I did not hear much street noise. The location of the hotel is great - close to the tube, shops and restaurants.

Great stay

Great 2 night stay, great service, clean, tidy and good value. Will definitely add to our shortlist of hotels for our next trip to London.
2-night trip

6/10 Good

Stayed here 5 days on a solo trip and it was basic, standard. Bed wasn’t the most comfortable I’ve stayed in, but the A/C worked great which was important to me. This was also a more spacious room than some others offered in London for a good price. Breakfast was good but never changed so I was bored of the same options by the third or fourth day. Cleaning service was great- they gave me space when I didn’t need them to come in. Friendly staff who tried to help when they could.
