This is an older hotel - classic style. The front desk staff were lovely, very helpful and efficient. The public areas were nice. I did not have breakfast there but there is a big breakfast room and a bar. There is no food other than breakfast (even though the TV in the room has a room service menu). The room was an acceptable size for the price, the decor a little dated, the bathroom has an actual bath and plenty of hot water. I was provided with an iron and board on request. The bed was comfy, the linen clean and new. The curtains provide an excellent blackout at night. The only complaint is that the walls are thin with no soundproofing so you can very easily hear other guests in the next rooms. The hotel doesn't seem to attract rowdy guests but the sound does travel. The area is quite safe, a couple of nice restaurants and a pub just near by. The underground was a bit of a hike though.

A great experience

While the hotel shows a little bit of wear and tear, it was overall very clean, the service was great, the room was comfortable, and the location cant be beat. I stayed for a week and found it very reasonably priced. Would stay again.

The location is great. Friendly staff. Breakfast is good for the price. The only downside is that rooms are a bit small, especially with a five year old.

Dismal Mistake

The staff were very nice. The property is dreadfully dated and really awkwardly situated, the facade looks nice. The rooms felt more like a prison... the first room given to me was on the 1st floor, which actually felt like a basement room (see photo of the view) and it was next to a major construction site...the staff kindly gave me another room and were surprised the first room photo (should they not know?). The bathroom was awkward and worn/ dated, bed was ok and clean as was most everything. Proximity to Hyde Park was good. Recommend other options.

I stayed at this location October 2023. I was excited to return. Downside is currently the hotel's restaurantis only serving Continetal Breakfast. Upside, The Leinster Arms is around the corner and they have a wonderful menu. History Enthusiasts would be interested to know the Lancaster became the Douglas House. Early Who fans might be interested to know this was a club that The Detours played at often. I am looking forward to returning soon.
