Categories

Cleanliness
9.1
Generally praised as clean (several 'chambre propre' / 'chambre confortable' mentions); minor notes about a cold bathroom floor and no toilet brush.
Service
8.3
Mostly described as friendly and helpful by several guests, but there are notable service issues reported (reception not always competent, bar staff making guests wait, having to ask for basics).
Location
9.8
Overwhelmingly positive: repeatedly called perfect/central/great for Covent Garden and the West End; primary strength of the hotel.
Room Quality
8.4
Many guests found rooms lovely and comfortable; however there are complaints about small rooms, a smaller-than-expected 4'6" double bed for some, and a damp-smelling corridor in one report.
Amenities
9.1
Cocktail/secret bar repeatedly praised, AC and toiletries noted as high quality; minor negatives include signage/navigation and occasional loud bar music.
Value for Money
6.8
Multiple comments that the hotel is overpriced or overvalued for what it offers, lowering the perceived value despite strong location and amenities.
Food and Beverage
7.8
Mixed reviews: cocktail bar is highly regarded, but breakfast receives criticism for limited choice/quality from several guests while others praise the buffet (eg. salmon, fruit).
Overall Experience
9.5
On balance very positive: many guests describe stays as lovely, would stay again, and do not regret visiting; specific issues noted did not generally ruin stays.

Mauvaise expérience client. Hôtel bien situé et propre.
Pros:

Chambre propre et hôtel bien situé

Cons:

Mauvaise Customer experience. Le personnel de l’hôtel n’était pas compétent face au standing de l’hôtel.
La chambre n’était pas prête à 16h30 alors que le check in est à 15h. La personne de la réception m’a proposé de laisser mes bagages et de revenir « plus tard ». Le personnel du bar vous fait patienter face à des clients extérieurs de l’hôtel.
