Traveled here for the Nike after dark 10k and we loved it. We’ll be back! Marco and Klea were great and so patient with us. The woman who cleaned our room was so sweet and made sure all of our needs were taken care of. After the 10k we ate at the hotel and my vegan burger and calamari were amazing! The bar was great also and it was nice to have the option to sit at the bar or in the lobby area. When we checked in we were too early so they held our bags so we could explore London. The Elizabeth Line was so close (but not close enough you can hear it from the hotel) which was very convenient, but there was plenty food and activities in the area. Gorgeous spot to walk around. Looking forward to returning.

Nice hotel, everything we needed for our trip, good location for Central London as right next to the tube station and easy to navigate to all landmarks. Room was not the room I had booked initially, it was changed but not a great start. Room was clean and tidy but had to ask on 3 occasions for my son’s sofa bed to be made up. Breakfast was very good. I would stay here again.

Not a great experience. Breakfast was terrible with limited staff and dirty tables. Housekeeping didn’t show up to provide clean towels. That said, the location is good and close to the train station. However, I’d rate the overall experience 5/10
