This was my first time traveling to London and I chose this hotel because it was in a convenient location and the rooms were larger than many other places I could see. It worked out well. The area is very walkable and not too far from tube stations to get anywhere else in town. I would definitely happily start here again. The staff was friendly and helpful.

This hotel was okay but do expect to make a commute to the more popular areas of London when staying here. Also live construction is happening here currently while we were staying. Not the most pleasant.

Overall a really great hotel in a great location. Really quiet despite being busy & in a busy area. Lovely, helpful staff. Only negative issues - the room was way too hot & using the 'aircon' only seemed to make it worse! Breakfast setup on the last morning (when we were tight for time for a flight) was delayed. Some items missing or finished each day, but these are fairly minor issues and we would certainly stay there again - thanks
