Very friendly staff, the virgin experience day afternoon charcuterie with wine was lovely & the overnight stay was great too. We booked the small double which was tiny but had a comfortable bed & the shower was good so that’s all we really needed for our stay overnight in London

Our shower didn’t properly drain for every day of our stay until the last day when we left. Maintenance fixed it once but it somehow got worse. The second time it was fixed it finally worked but we left the next morning. We stood in a pool of our dirt every other time we showered.
Some of the staff were very nice. The lobby area was comfortable for our party to sit and hang out in. It’s walking distance to the tube.

The rooms are tiny! The property is nice and the restaurant on premise is nice. The service is great. But the rooms are very small. They are comfortable enough if you just want to rest/sleep.

The best London Hotel of all time
We arrived early to the hotel, we were given rooms before checkin time. The concierge was wonderful. The rooms were great. The shower pressure and temperature were perfect. The pillow were so so. But the bed and comforter were pleasant. I want to recognize Albino for making our breakfast spectacular every morning. He went above and beyond to make sure our breakfast was to our satisfaction and that was the most important start of our day. We will definitely only come back to this hotel. Walking distance to Earl’s Point to get the picadilly and district lines. Great restaurants and bars nearby, namely Kensington Arms, which had great service and food as well.

Nightmare in London
Probably the worst hotel experience above 100 € per night I ever had. And it was 500 euro per night.
The rooms are half the size you think they are from the pictures, the hotel is old and worn down.
My shower didn't work.
I asked to be moved in a better room and I was moved in the basement on the road side, almost like sleeping on an highway.
Saturday I arrive from lunch with my wife and our room hadn't been made.. the excuse was that there was many people leaving that morning... Honestly unacceptable for a 4 and half start hotel.
