6/10

Unfortunatly we had an incident during our stay that tainted the remainder of our trip. I was able to make my complaint and I am pleased to say this was delt with proffessionally and promptly and we are happy with the response. To that end, I have given a fair review as the room was adequate for our needs, it was very clean and the location was very good. I feel some investment would be beneficial to update the rooms , but the commitment of the manager to ensure that we were happy with the outcome and this would not happen again, was a very much appreciated. We hope to stay again and experience a better service.

10/10

A good, clean room - not a bad price for London and a twin room. Unfortunately we were on the top (5th) floor on a very hot day/night, and the property being old doesn’t have air conditioning. However, the staff had already opened the windows and drawn the blinds and put a fan (on) in the room. They also brought up cool water and glasses for the room shortly after we went up. The staff were attentive and always happy to help where they could and the rooms were clean and had plenty of sockets. The bathroom was tiny but they still managed to get a decent shower in there. The hotel is a gorgeous period building and a lot of the original features remain including stained glass windows in the bar. I would definitely stay here again.

Good Hotel. Bad room.
3-night trip

2/10

I don't know where to start. On check-in, our room was described as luxury - 30 years ago this may have been true. Holes in the carpet, tatty, old furniture, torn valance, tiny, claustrophobic bathroom, sticky biscuit packets, stained, old pillows. Generally, if we hadn't been rushing off to an appointment, we wouldn't have stayed

Gem Strathmore is a definite Gem. All the staff were welcoming and genuinely helpful. Loved the British feel of this hotel. Much less crowded then other areas of London and a wonderful location. Rooms are small but more than adequate. Would stay here again and again
