Strand Palace Hotel

8/10 Good

"I was only here for the night and it got the job done. The room was small but had exactly what you needed for a short stay where you’re not in the room much. The bed was comfy and the room was clean. The shower had good pressure. Perfect location. I wouldn’t stay anymore than a night but overall a good stay."

STG Hotel London Oxford Street

8/10 Good

"Good breakfast"

Park Plaza London Westminster Bridge

"Absolutely lovely location, friendly staff, nice rooms and the view is unmatched."

"Great location. Great hotel. Will be back"

The Cumberland, London

"We stayed in an executive king room for the weekend for my daughter's 12th birthday. From the moment we arrived we were extremely well looked after by all of the staff and we were very impressed with the hotel, especially the VIP lounge which we had access to due to booking an executive room. As well as this, the hotel provided some lovely birthday gifts for my daughter, which she was very excited to receive when we arrived in the room. Overall we had a thoroughly enjoyable stay and we will definitely be back again. Thank you!"
