"Hotel well sited with easy access to city via tube or Big Bus tours. Very good base"
Staff at the hotel were very friendly and accomodating. Breakfast was well presented and always refresh with the cook breakfast remaing hot. The accomodation is not sized as the larger Hilton Hotels would usualy be but is typical of hotels in and around the city centre areas. The usual and expected quality from the Hilton is eveident. All in all a very good base to visit all of the site London has to offer

Very comfortable stay. The quietness of the room made up for us having a poor view (we were at the back/side of hotel overlooking a small quad area). The problems we had were sorted out quickly - no milk in room - difficulty in getting hot water - needing help with shower. Breakfast choice was good. Thank you

"Very Helpful Staff"
Good location, was upgraded to a better room on checking. Nice cookie given to both of us. However when we went to the upgraded room it had been used by smokers and we could not stop in the room it was that bad. They immediately changed us to another room and this was fine. Bar staff in the evening really helpful. Breakfast was excellent and fresh. Would reccomend to anyone.

"Comfortable with great service."
Really impressed with the hotel. Great location for the West End theatres. Front desk, helpful and very polite. Check in and out simple and fast. Concierge very knowlegable and helpful. Rooms exceptionally clean and quite comfortable. Superb breakfast. Only fault I could think of would be cheap quilts on the bed and the bed was a bit small compared to what we are used to (Only a standard double). Everything else perfect! Would highly recommend this hotel.

We arrived on a very hot (30 degrees C) day to find the air con was not working in our rooms. The hotel reception staff were very understanding and moved us to an executive suite, where we enjoyed a very comfortable stay. Staff were very polite, cheerful and helpful. There was a good variety of food available at breakfast, which was mostly very good, but some of our party did comment that the orange juice was weak and the croissants very bland and flavourless. We will not hesitate to return to the hotel again.

"Very small room"
Location very good. Reception and bar area very good and polite staff. Room was a very small double with bed pushed against the wall but had usual facilities you`d expect and was clean. If you don`t plan on spending much time in your room then would recommend.

"Clean comfortable and central"
Nice hotel which I will recomend to friends and use again. Central location very clean and comfortable, although on the small side. We were fortunate to have a room at the back which meant it was quiet which is a huge plus in London. Staff were friendly and helpful. Good local amenities (cash machine, pharmacy, supermarket etc.) Holburn and Russell Square underground within easy walking distance. Only slight niggle was that the lighting was a bit poor around the mirrors but not a major issue also television was difficult to navigate but didn`t spend much time in the room for it to be a problem.

"Fantastic hotel in great location."
Everything about this hotel was great, from the minute we arrived staff made us feel very welcome and went out of their way to be helpful. The room was large and spotlessly clean and had lots of extras. The bed was very comfortable which is great after a long day walking round London! Meals and cocktails were fabulous. The hotel was a couple of minutes walk from Russell Square station which made it very easy to access all areas of London. Would highly recommend this hotel.

Hotel was good. I had no problem to the monday morning when at 7.30am men started work on a cieling just outside my door there was continued banging, drilling and use of electric saws.The noices were similar to those experienced for a few hours after booking in on the friday evening. I am sure you can note that I have booked hotels through you on previous occaisons without compliant.This was dissapointing more than anything else. I enformed the desk of my dissatisfaction before leaving.

Good location for our purpose (Theatres). First impression on entering the hotels rception was "very nice". The reception staff were extremely polite & helpful. The double room was comfortable allbeit very small with an equally small bathroom (no frills & no view). Our room was situated next to one of the lifts. This was handy but the lift doors kept us awake in the middle of the night. The breakfasts were substantial, the food good and again the waiting staff were polite and helpful. The hotel has a relaxing bar area run by very cheery and pleasant staff. We certainly enjoyed our stay but definately dissappointed by the size of the room and lack of luxury expected when booking "Hilton"!

"fantastic hotel, with great staff in an excellent location"
We stayed in the hotel for a two night break for my daughter`s18th birthday. Aware of the celebration, the hotel had upgraded us and placed a basket of fruit in the room with a birthday message. The rooms are lovely with everything you need, it`s a great location and breakfast was delicious. Location wise it was perfect for two days sightseeing in the capital and I look forward to returning to the Doubletree very soon.

"Smart hotel in good location for West End and Oxford Street etc."
Some renovation work ongoing on our floor and evidence of unfinished work in bedroom (ceiling not painted over bed, where work had taken place). Breakfast was very good.

"Good position for WestEnd"
The public areas of the hotel are lovely but we had a few problems with our room, the TV didnt work or the air conditioning but on both occasions staff attend to our problems immediatley, the staff were very friendly. We stayed for breakfast, the fruit, bread etc was ok but the cooked breakfast wasnt very good, weve had better in a premier or holiday inn.

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location is great and the staff are very friendly and helpful. "
We stayed in room 413 and the glass shower guard made an awful sound when moved. Couldn`t figure out how to get my ipod working on the room radio. I tried the `Blue Moon` beer and found it did not have hardly any tatse. A UK beer might be a good idea - Black Sheep for example. The ladies enjoyed their cocktails. Finally, we mistakenly took the service lift as there is no sign on it saying that it is for staff only. Also, it was in a terrible state or repair and with graffiti all over it. This cannot be very good for the staff ethos of Doubletrees being a quality hotel.ThanksTed Shaw.
