Very serviceable hotel for a short stay in London and I would certainly stay there again. We were offered an upgrade on checking in but we didn’t go for this and our room was quite adequate without needing more. Clean bathroom that worked well.

I have stayed at this hotel on several occasions. In the past I found the rooms looked a little tired and in need of a refresh. In this occasion I stayed in a club room which was an improvement. Also having breakfast pre-paid is an advantage during busy periods. A faulty shower hose on arrival was promptly fixed. Reception staff particularly helpful and found all staff friendly and helpful.
