Great location. Would definitely stay here again. The shower sucked, but that was the only downside. They could have eliminated the tub and made more room in the shower and also put in a normal shower head instead of the goofy rain shower, but out of our entire stay, that was the only negative. The location is perfect with lots within walking distance and the Admiralty Pub right across the street to end your night in. The lobby bar area was under renovation while we were there, but it looked like it will be nice when finished.

One of the best hotels we ever stayed at!My husband and I visited London for the first time to celebrate 1 year wedding anniversary.The location is perfect!The service was friendly & superb.We had our luggage brought to room and while we waited for our room to be ready we had snack and drink at roof top bar - which was amazing 5/5!Our room was modern, clean, stylish, and safe.I loved the mirrors around and the mini fridge with complementary water and soda - which definitely came handy for us. Even though they were under construction while we visited and the view we got from our room was another building under construction - it didn’t take away from our 5 star experience. Staying at this hotel completed our wonderful experience in London. ❤️🇬🇧

This hotel has exceeded our expectations. They have treated my 3 year old like royalty and have been incredibly accommodating. From Tony the doorman to the staff in the restaurant we’ve both loved every minute of it. The breakfast is fantastic, and the rooftop bar/restaurant has great views out over the city. The beds are extremely comfortable and the rooms are fresh and new. I didn’t hear any construction noise and the location is extremely central to anything you’d want to see.
