Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were opulent and beautiful with a garden view and a gorgeous bathroom, making our last minute booking worth it. The service was exceptional, with staff being warm, welcoming, and extremely helpful. The location was perfect, near the Victoria tube station and within walking distance of Westminster, adding convenience to our sightseeing. The dining experience was exquisite overall, but there was a slight dip in quality on one morning. The facilities were top-notch, offering everything we needed for a comfortable stay.
The hotel had beautiful and very comfortable rooms, offering a luxurious and relaxing experience. However, the rooms are a bit on the smaller side, making it challenging for travelers with multiple suitcases. The service was exceptional, with attentive staff meeting all our needs promptly. The location was excellent for touring objectives, with a picturesque building and charming garden at the rear. The dining experience was a mix of outstanding and disappointing, depending on the meal. Overall, a most special place to stay, though with some minor room size considerations.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of luxury and disappointment. The opulent and beautiful rooms with garden views and gorgeous bathrooms were a treat, but the noise from furniture being moved around was a downside. The service was impeccable, with helpful staff from the busy hotel entrance to the room. The central location near key London attractions was a major plus, but the underwhelming dining experience left much to be desired.
