8/10 Very good

Really great staff and really spacious (by London standards) clean and trendy rooms. The bar and restaurant spaces were booked for private events both evenings of our stay and were a bit noisy but we were warned at check in and the hotel have made attempts to install sound proofing for the rooms. Ultimately I would recommend a stay here.

The mandrake is an exceptional hotel, the interior decor is innovative and inspiring for creatives, with beautiful contemporary artwork, and installations, every floor is decadent glamour, there are quiet areas also and you feel like you are not in the centre of London but in a lush tropical location. The food is tasty, as well as the bar area with iconic cocktails. The staff are very friendly and hospitable, we loved our stay there and will return soon

Thank you ❤️

From the moment we entered the hotel we were met with kindness and love. Has to be the most stylish hotel in London. The cocktails and selection at the bar were beautiful. The food was incredibly well thought out and tasted beautiful. Unbelievable decor, incredible customer service and a weekend I will remember for the rest of my life. To Sim and the team, big love from J & T. Thank you for everything

Unusual but lovely

Quite an unusual ‘nightclubby’entrance and hotel theme. Very dark but fun. We had a suite that was perfect, light clean comfortable. Coffee machine, bathrobes, good bathroom amenities,king bed. Unusual selection in the ‘mini bar area’. It was a hot day but room was lovely. and cool. There was music until 1am apparently but we didn’t hear it in our first floor room. Very quiet.Breakfast was fantastic although due to a brand new system it was extremely slow…needs sorting out.

8/10 Very good

Interesting hotel, the decor is terrific and the staff very helpful. Sitting in the bar area there were so many people coming into the hotel and disappearing into various out of sight rooms, had no idea what was going on but it made it all the more intriguing..lighting is very ‘ambient’, tripped a couple of times in the corridors (I do wear glasses), got lost coming out of the lift on wrong floor, and took me several minutes to get the door to the room open with the strange key lock mechanism. Lovely Full-English breakfast. All in all, certainly a different kind of place to stay in central London and will probably stay again.

Putting the record straight

Stay was fine , slept like a log in the big bed , English breakfast was good quality ingredients, eggs were clearly free range After making the booking I read the reviews, which were mixed , which made me a little concerned …. As we generally only stay in 5* hotels , and don’t normally feel a need to leave a review as they are what you expect However on this occasion I feel that it is only right that we comment The hotel is privately owned and a one off boutique, which is decorated in all areas with original one off furniture and fine art , it is NOT your usual travel lodge magnolia blandness . There is even live music in the later part of the week evenings The staff were welcoming, taking our bags to our rooms and showing us around , the lady who checked us both in and out also explained before checking in, that if we were to wanted complete quiet in our room towards the end of the week she would choose our room carefully for us We have already decided to stay at the mandrake when in London next month P.s. if you want to stay a in a hotel with character stay here , if not … not book it

Disappointing

For a hotel that has only been open around five years I do not think the rooms are wearing well. There was mold in the shower, the taps in the bathroom washbowl were lose, the plug in the sink did not work. For a hotel costing this much I expect a decent steam iron in the room and not just a cheap hot plate. There was coffee making facilities in the room and the fridge was well stocked with alcohol...but no milk, creamer or even powder for my coffee. Also no full length mirror in the room except the door to the bathroom but the bed was right next to it which made it useless as a mirror. All the staff were friendly and helpful but the overall experience was disappointing.

My stay at The Mandrake in London was truly an unforgettable experience. From the moment I arrived, I felt as though I had stepped into a fantasy world. The hotel’s moody vibe perfectly complements its location in the trendy Fitzrovia area, creating a unique and immersive environment. The room was nothing short of luxurious, with high-end furnishings and a well-stocked minibar that made my stay even more comfortable. The en suite bathroom was a dream, featuring a rainfall shower head that added a touch of spa-like relaxation to my daily routine. The greenhouse terrace and central courtyard are absolute showstoppers, draped in hanging jasmine and passionflowers that infuse the space with a captivating fragrance. The rich textures, vibrant dark colors, and theatrical lighting throughout the hotel made every corner feel like a work of art. The amenities at The Mandrake are exceptional. The restaurant on site served exquisite dishes, and the bar was the perfect spot to unwind after a day of exploring the city. A special mention must go to the staff, who were nothing short of top tier. Their attention to detail and warm hospitality made my stay even more enjoyable. The Mandrake is not just a hotel; it's an experience. If you’re looking for a place that combines luxury, style, and a bit of the unexpected, I highly recommend staying here. I can't wait to return!

The hotel looks great in the photos but we stayed in the terrace suite and in all honesty it was generally in poor condition for a 5 star hotel. The wardrobe doors were broken, aircon broken, bedside lamp broken, door to terrace broken, TV broken. And they got the breakfast order wrong 3 times. Very poor for what was £1500 per night

The service is great and the hotel too, it’s just not a hotel to chill. Because they have parties till 2 in the morning and you hear it in your room. So it’s not a hotel if you have an early flight.
