Another lovely stay

Have stayed here several times and have always been made to feel very welcome. The rooms are fabulous as is the food. Would be nice to have glasses in the room for water at night or other cold drinks Parking can be quite difficult as only a very small carpark but it is gated entry that has full CCTV which is good. There is some street parking at limited times

Everything was spot on. All tidy and clean, modern furnishings. Nothing to complain. A very pleasant stay. Only improvement for me personally would be a good a fitted sheet on the bed rather that a flat sheet but a minor detail

From start to finish our stay at The Lion and Key Hotel was amazing. We arrived quite early and the staff worked hard to get our room ready 3 hours early, which was so greatly appreciated after traveling from the US. When the staff learned we had just gotten married, they decorated our room to celebrate, just above and beyond. We spent quite a bit of time in the bar and restaurant on site, the staff, food, and drink was amazing! We will definitely stay again our next trip to London.
