"The flat is in a very convenient location for access to several local landmarks. The checking process, accuracy of information like wifi, and overall maintenance of the flat were dreadful. The instructions book in the flat did not match the information provided by the management team. The TV, cable, and internet only worked sporadically. Despite the location, there was not much going for this property."

Top London Hotel Reviews

Park Plaza London Westminster Bridge

10/10 Excellent

"It was alovely hotel all staff where so nice and very welcoming , room was very good beds where lovely"

The Tower Hotel, by Thistle

8/10 Good

"Really good stay breakfast was wonderful. Apple juice could have been better. Apart from the evacuation early in the morning everything was good"

Strand Palace Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A fabulous hotel in a great location. The staff were extremely helpful and accommodating- nothing was too much trouble! Upon arrival I was allowed to check in early and choose which floor I would like to be on, enabling me to choose a quieter floor. The room was spacious for a single room and had a huge bathroom both of which were spotlessly clean and well maintained. The coffee machine was an extra treat! The bed was very comfortable and had a cushioned topper. The gin bar was lovely and served delicious cocktails as well as lighter bites and teas and coffees for breakfast and lunch. As for location, it was great for visiting the theatre, only meters away from Covent Garden, and a short tube or bus ride to many other attractions. I’m already looking forward to my next visit - thank you!"
