The family room was spacious enough. The hotel staff were nice, offered storage of luggage. Very close to the train station with places to eat and drink. The area is one of our favorites in London. Recommending this place to others.

Weekend break

Clean and tidy hotel. Brilliant staff. TV didn't work in room and they moved us to a bigger room straight away. Comfy beds, although the air conditioner was so old and loud you couldn't have it on overnight.

Shortly after arriving, we noticed air conditioning was not working in our room. Staff came up to have a look and verified the issue. Hotel agreed to give us new room next day. Luckily, it was the weather cool that night in London (April 2025). Next day, we had our new room. A little inconvenient, but staff responded quickly. Had new room next day with good A/C.

Good sized rooms, property is like a maze! Apparently got upgraded but wouldnt say the room was duluxe, it faced out into a courtyard that had the air conditioning unit so no view. We did have a sofa bed that had been made up but it wasnt required as there were only 2 of us anyway.

One to avoid

Upsides: - Great location - Friendly staff in reception and bar Downside: - Unusual smell from pillows - Bed felt itchy - Loud ventilation or extractor fan running automatically, had to put in headphones to drown out the sound - Shower unit and the room in general was pretty worn out - Poor soundproofing - Can take a long time to reach your room due to building layout You'd be better off spending £20 less and getting an Ibis, or £20 more and finding a proper 4 star hotel.
