Clean, comfortable hotel located in Wesminster at a reasonable price point. A close walk to Buckingham Palace -- but we actually found it pretty easy to walk pretty much everywhere -- including to Big Ben/London Eye all the way up to Picadilly and Trafalgar Square. Staff was friendly and accommodating.

Property was great and staff were super helpful and friendly. The only thing we weren’t particular fond of is the beds are really hard, kind of like sleeping on a plank of wood. However, that is personal preference as some people prefer a hard bed, and we just simply prefer softer.
