This is my new favorite hotel in London. It is between Piccadilly Circus and Leicester Square tube stops, so you have a choice on tube lines to get to most places. There are many options on places to eat, and lots of theatres are within walking distance.

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at the Thistle Piccadilly. The staff was friendly and welcoming. Location is fantastic and easily walkable to key sites in London, such as the art museum and Big Ben. We would definitely stay here again!

A good location to stay for Leicester Square. The hotel reminds me of Travelodge. Ie basic, however, useful. The date I stayed was reasonably priced so it was good value for money. I would prefer to stay somewhere more comfortable, but the location, again, can't be beaten.

We only stayed one night, but the hotel bedrooms were very clean with plenty of towels. The position of the hotel is excellent for walking to the theatre. The reception staff were very friendly and efficient. We are going to London twice more this year and will definitely stay at the Thistle Hotel in Piccadilly.
