Five days in central London - great hotel and location.
Pros:

Comfortable room, well-designed bathroom (including separate door to loo). Excellent buffet breakfast. Great location for the theatre district, but also for getting anyway in London with ease. Room was quiet/

Cons:

Nothing to suggest for improvement.

Pros:

From the moment we arrived, the receptionist made us feel genuinely welcome. She was friendly, professional, and incredibly helpful during check-in. As a lovely surprise, she offered us an upgrade, which made our stay even more special. Her positive attitude and attention to detail really set the tone for our entire experience at the hotel. Outstanding customer service—thank you!

Pros:

Posizione eccellente, vicinissima alla metro e a 15 Min a piedi dal Big Ben...noi eravamo ai piani alti (che consiglio ) e nonostante la posizione centrale e' stato abbastanza silenzioso. Io avevo la junior suite, letti comodi e altrettanto i cuscini, molto pulito staff gentile

Cons:

Premetto che vado spesso a Londra, e sono stata nei migliori hotel della città ( tipo al the Shard hotel) quindi ho un termine di paragone abbastanza elevato per i 5 stelle. Set di spazzolini e dentifricio mancanti che almeno una junior suite dovrebbe avere.. ma la cosa che veramente non mi era mai capitata in un 5 stelle e' che avevo fatto la colazione inclusa, ma che poi mi ritrovo a dover pagare pancake, cappuccino , caffe' e qualsiasi altra cosa al di fuori del mini buffet. Perciò se mai dovessi tornare di certo la colazione la farei in un qualsiasi altro bar vicino ..

Pros:

Staff as always were excellent. Room was great with a beautiful view. Location very convenient

Cons:

Check in was delayed creating some minor issues for accessing a meeting. There are not too many plug points in the room and one didn’t work. Minor issues really
