Front of house staff, as always, outstanding and accommodating. Special access lounge now disappointing as There was limited availability of food and libations. I would like an honesty bar as I had clients join me and then had virtually nothing to offer them.

Lively and Lovely Stay

This is a great hotel close to a few restaurants and Buckingham Palace. We especially enjoyed Sofra around the corner. There is a mini mart on a side street and an M&S close by. Very nice staff. Great walkable park right across the street.
