Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were opulent and beautiful with a garden view and a gorgeous bathroom, making our last minute booking worth it. The service was exceptional, with staff being warm, welcoming, and extremely helpful. The location was perfect, near the Victoria tube station and within walking distance of Westminster, adding convenience to our sightseeing. The dining experience was exquisite overall, but there was a slight dip in quality on one morning. The facilities were top-notch, offering everything we needed for a comfortable stay.
The hotel had beautiful and very comfortable rooms, offering a luxurious and relaxing experience. However, the rooms are a bit on the smaller side, making it challenging for travelers with multiple suitcases. The service was exceptional, with attentive staff meeting all our needs promptly. The location was excellent for touring objectives, with a picturesque building and charming garden at the rear. The dining experience was a mix of outstanding and disappointing, depending on the meal. Overall, a most special place to stay, though with some minor room size considerations.
The hotel offers opulent and beautiful rooms with a garden view and a gorgeous bathroom, but the rooms with a view on the emergency staircases are very small. The service provided by the staff is exceptional, with a high level of hospitality and attentiveness. The location is excellent for touring objectives and near convenient transportation. The dining experience is excellent, though some dishes may take longer to arrive. Overall, a luxurious stay with great service and beautiful surroundings.
I had a delightful stay at the hotel. The rooms were luxurious with colorful decor, a huge plush bed, and a luxurious bathroom, although it felt a bit full. The service was exceptional, with polite and charming staff providing attention to detail. The location was excellent for exploring London, especially being near Victoria tube station. The dining experience was mostly excellent, although there was a slight setback with the timing on one morning. Overall, a fantastic hotel experience with a few minor hiccups.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of luxury and disappointment. The opulent and beautiful rooms with garden views and gorgeous bathrooms were a treat, but the noise from furniture being moved around was a downside. The service was impeccable, with helpful staff from the busy hotel entrance to the room. The central location near key London attractions was a major plus, but the underwhelming dining experience left much to be desired.
