This hotel is ideal for train transit in and out of London. It sits directly over the subway but you hear none of the noise. You can catch a train in 5 minutes. Couldn’t be more convenient

Caroline, 1-night trip

The check-in was flawless and Chennelle was cheery, bright and really helpful. The room was spotlessly clean and stylise with an art deco feel. Lovely hotel and would definitely stay again!
Colin, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely clean comfortable room. Efficient welcoming staff. A kettle in the room not just a coffee maker would have been nice as I drink tea. Bar beautiful
Sarah, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I’m not sure the location could be bettered for transport links and the staff were fantastic. I hadn’t realised I’d booked a room with a bath rather than shower but for a one night stay the bath was OK. Room supremely quiet despite a busy world right outside. Would book again.
Paul, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Lovely room, great bath, but lack of shower was disappointing, particularly given the high price of the room.

Perfect location for eurostar. Very comfortable rooms, staff helpful Everything you need in close proximity.
Helen, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Lovely well-equipped hotel. A couple of small gripes: We had a long wait to check in because only one staff member was present at the front desk, and she was occupied with a phone call. Also the soap bottle in our room had a broken pump.
Alex, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great central location. All trains and subways are nearby. Great dining options. The rooms were quiet and comfortable.
Kornelia, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Room was clean comfortable and well equipped. Bar area is nice. Staff at the counter could be welcoming - retuning later in the evening we were not even acknowledged. Also upon check in they gave us a key and room number that was already occupied leading to a very awkward encounter with a furious American lady who was in her pyjamas.
