Ietswat oubollig hotel op een geweldige locatie.
Pros:

De geweldige locatie, ideaal als je snel in het centrum wil zijn. Prachtige lobby en heel vriendelijk personeel.

Cons:

Vrij kleine kamer die wel toe is aan wat modernisering als je kijkt naar de prijs.

Pros:

Questo è il mio quinto soggiorno al Lancaster Gate Hotel e, ancora una volta, non sono rimasta delusa. Ho trascorso 4 giorni a Londra e ho ritrovato tutto ciò che mi fa scegliere sempre questo hotel: camere pulite e curate, personale gentile e disponibile, e una colazione davvero abbondante e squisita, perfetta per iniziare bene la giornata.
L'unica piccola pecca è che il personale parla solo inglese, senza possibilità di comunicare in italiano: per chi non è a proprio agio con la lingua potrebbe essere un piccolo ostacolo, anche se nel complesso non compromette affatto l'esperienza.
Consiglio vivamente questo hotel a chi cerca qualità, pulizia e un ottimo rapporto con il personale. Io ci tornerò sicuramente ancora!

Pros:

Good location. Nice friendly & helpful staff.

Cons:

This was our second visit. We had enjoyed our accommodation last year so rebooked for this year. However our room was very disappointing. Room was small, pokey and felt very dated. Carpets not very clean. Bath needs redoing. Windows wouldn’t close and wood rotten.
As work was being done in lounge bar area which I understood and accepted, there was no provision for a toilet whilst we waited for a taxi which was awkward.

Cons:

Very disappointing experience. Staff took photos inside our room that included our personal belongings without our knowledge or consent, and the entire situation was handled unprofessionally. I would not recommend staying here.
