The Wellington is a great place to stay if you need to be close to the central action of London. Many areas are within walking distance and the Waterloo train station is directly across the street. I stayed in a room with my wife and daughter, which met our needs perfectly. It was a decent size, was clean and had moderate updates. The building is quite old, so it is quite worn in many areas. For example, carpets, walls and railings in the main stairwell. Cracked paint and built in dirt around windows etc… So if your preference is new and shiny, this won’t be for you. However, we all enjoyed our stay. The breakfast each morning in the pub was perfect, lots of options and the staff and service was excellent. I would definitely recommend the Wellington.

Room was fine but seemed a bit tired and in need of some maintenance. Didn't stay for breakfast as starting that at 8am seems a little late for London (needed to be on the other side of London by 9am).

Ventilation if the toilet is really poor, it smelled stinky. The room is old. I live in top floor but need to move the luggages to the stairs by ourselves without any help.

It’s an old building so it’s very small rooms and even smaller showers but the staff is excellent and they go out of their way to help you. I would stay here again

Room was basic but suited our needs for one night. Included breakfast was nice, staff were friendly. Our only issue was the outside noise as the hotel is "wedged" between Waterloo station and the overground

Incredible staff; friendly and accommodating! Easy check-in process! Highly recommend! There is a wonderful bar and restaurant located on the first floor, but we could not hear any noise! Great food and drinks!! The street/location is a little noisy, with a busy road and train station close by, but with ear plugs we all slept well! Only area of improvement would be the bathroom in room; significant amount of mildew (black mold). Thanks for an enjoyable time!! We’ll be back!!

Hen weekend

Hotel is couple of minutes walk from exit 2 at Waterloo station Booked a twin room as it was for my daughter & myself for her hen weekend. The room was quite warm but there were fans provided. Had a fridge in the room with complimentary milk & bottles of water. Breakfast was included in the room price & was delicious, cooked perfectly.

Central London visitor hotspot

Amazingly central stay, welcoming staff, reasonable tariff. No hidden extras. Had to be able to navigate stairs. Within walking distance of central sights and on direct bus routes. Will certainly stay here again.

Access with baggage is a bit challenging from the street and once inside. Staff were helpful and kind. Location so close to Waterloo station is a big plus. En suite bathroom very nice if a little on the small side. Bed comfy. Train line next to the window provided some noise until quite late.
