Kellemes hangulat, kedves személyzet
Pros:

Nagyon jó helyen van közlekedés szempontjából, és a környék hangulata is remek, viselhetően elegáns de életteli is.

Cons:

A szobában nincs légkondicionálás, és a zuhany csak esőztető formátumú.

Pros:

The gentleman who was checking me out was lovely.

Cons:

Breakfast was stale crossiant & toast. Fruit and yougart that's it. Not worth the cost

On check in i had one guest and no breakfast. I was charged for two breakfast £20 and told i couldn't change it. I showed my booking £20 cheaper and only then was refunded for one.

Old windows- room was nosy

Basic room, no room to walk round bed

TV didnt work. It runs off WiFi and kept freezing every 30secs. Couldn't watch anything

Pros:

The Hotel staffs are friendly and accommodating. The Hotel location is impeccable as it´s located near to a few Underground lines that go all around the city and also the Elizabeth line directly from Heathrow Airport.

Cons:

It´s understandable that last weekend heatwave was one of the rare incidents in London, but the room can be very stuffy and hot when the weather is warm. Besides that, the double bed is be a bit on the smaller side and hard.

Pros:

Angenehmes Hotel, super Lage, sehr sauber. Betreuung über KI-Whatsapp, man konnte alle Fragen stellen. Leselampe, Wasserkocher, Ladestation. An viele kleine nette Details gedacht. Auch Schampoo und Seife braucht man nicht mitbringen. Ist ausreichend vorhanden.

Cons:

Alles war perfekt, bis auf die extreme Hitze im Zimmer (bestimmt über 28 Grad), was sehr unangenehm war. Ich war im Sommer 2026 dort, so dass das Haus sehr aufgeheizt war. Man konnte die Fenster nur einen kleinen Spalt öffnen, was schade war, denn draußen war es inzwischen wieder kühl. Angeblich ist es nicht erlaubt. Sehr bedauerlich, daher kann ich es für einen Sommeraufenthalt leider nicht empfehlen, obwohl der Rest gut war. Ein weiterer Minuspunkt war der tägliche Handtuchwechsel, ich hätte das nicht gebraucht und ist nicht ökologisch, war natürlich gut gemeint, doch kann man anders lösen (z. B. Nur Handtücher auf dem Boden wechseln)

No se corresponden con lo que venden cuidado
Pros:

La ubicación

Cons:

Llegamos y pagamos el “early check in” nos dieron una planta 5 y el ascensor estaba averiado. Al subir con las maletas, nos encontramos un zulo de menos de 8 metros. Con un baño metido en un armario sin mampara en la ducha y podías lavarte los dientes mientras te duchabas. La ducha no tenía alcachofa era un tubo que estaba pegado al techo. Solicitamos un cambio de habitación, ya que no se correspondía en NADA con la reserva de la habitación y nos dijeron que nos habían hecho un favor, porque al pagar el
“Early check in” nos habían dado la mejor habitación, porque tenía aire acondicionado. Estábamos hablando de Londres 35º ola de calor. Las ventanas no se podían abrir. En la recepción nos trataron de tontas. Cuando dijimos que esto no era lo q habíamos pagado. Dijeron q no pueden poner todas las habitaciones en booking. Pero de lo que venden a lo
Que hay NADA que ver. Por favor si leéis esto. No
Caigáis en el mismo error. Seguro que lo que encontraréis ya será mucho mejor.

Die Lage des Hotels ist sehr gut. Ich würde es im Sommer nicht empfehlen.
Pros:

Die Lage war sehr gut. Das Frühstück war in Ordnung, es gab allerdings fast nur Toast, Brötchen wurden, wenn sie weg waren, nicht mehr nachgebracht. Das Personal war an und für sich freundlich.

Cons:

Das Hotel hat in den Zimmern keine Klimaanlage, die Rezeption und der Gang schon. Bei Außentemperaturen von 37 Grad ist es im Zimmer unerträglich heiß, da schaffen zwei kleine Ventilatoren auch keine Abhilfe, zumal man das Fenster nur einen kleinen Spalt öffnen kann. Außerdem war das Waschbecken verstopft, wenn man sich einmal die Hände gewaschen hat, war es voll und wurde nicht einmal über Nacht komplett frei. Auch nach Reklamation an der Rezeption wurde es nicht repariert. Händewaschen und Zähneputzen waren eine Herausforderung, weil man dazu auch nicht die Dusche verwenden konnte. Ob und wie das Waschbecken von der Reinigungskraft jemals gesäubert wurde, bleibt mir ein Rätsel.

It’s close to the center and just perfect if you only need a place to crash.
Pros:

The hotel had a perfect location and the rooms were very clean, plus being able to leave my luggage outside check-in and check-out times made my trip much easier.

Cons:

The rooms were extremely small and, without air conditioning, the fan wasn’t enough to keep cool on hot days.
