"Room Sub Standard"

Yellow water leaking all over floor in room 405. Bedding smelt of smoke - should have been a non smoking room, bed was also very uncomfortable as probably needs replacing. Wife very disappointed - this was meant to be a pleasant stay in London to celebrate anniversary, also had problems when checking in as computer was down, we were then told 20 minutes later that we could not check in until 14.00pm, would have been good to tell us when first arrived.

"Bath Plug"

My wife would have given you excellent had the bath plug fitted but the water kept draining away so she kept on having to refill it.

"Good hotel and excellent location."

Lovely hotel, with friendly, helpful staff. Rooms were clean and tidy, and the 3rd "put me up" bed was comfortable. I did feel the price reflected the prime location a little, but that`s the way it is. The breakfast was excellent, and the bar was open for a night cap. Definitely stay there again.

"Great Location, nice hotel"

This is a nice hotel in a great location. We were on the 7th floor and the room size was larger than average considering you are in London, there was quite a bit of rattling coming from the air conditioning but this didn`t stop us sleeping. Common areas are well kept and the bedroom decor was fine, the shower was a bit dated, but it did the job! We had a triple room and the put up bed was very uncomfortable, but the normal beds were fine. Breakfast itself was great, a;though they seemed very under staffed and getting a cup of coffee was a little difficult! Reception area friendly. Would stay again.

"-"

Although I stayed in a single - room 226 - this was a corner room with a bay type window and was a slightly unusual shape so, as a consequence, I felt it was more airey than some of the cupboards one is given when travelling on business! However it was quite hot and although the windows opened I didn`t feel comfortable doing that with a small flat roof outside just in case someone was tempted to explore! Overall the hotel was fine for a one night stay; staff were friendly and efficient and it suited my requirements very well. For Mayfair, it was also very well priced.

"An excellent hotel. "

Although i stayed only 1 night, my wife and i throughly enjoyed our stay. The quality of the room was perfect. I enjoyed both the breakfast buffet and my evening meal (my compliments to your kitchen staff). The restaurant staff were attentive but not harrassing. The other hotel staff were just as accomadating to our needs ( i was pleasantly surprised that when i asked for more milk and sugar for our in room coffee facilities, your concierge brought it up personally withing 5 minutes- at the Hilton in NY i had to wait 45 minutes for everything). I am also glad you were able to send us some toothpaste when i realised we had forgotten ours. I will definetely recommend this hotel to others and stay there again if i ever get the chance. Sat sri akal.

"Heating"

The hotel was excellent but the heat in the bedroom was horrendous. I complained to the receptionist, they said they would send someone to sort it out, but they didn`t.

"I rate it two stars, I have complained to the management"

The Bedroom I was given was on the seventh floor, the roof had provided extra special heat, and the air -conditioning doesn`t work, they admitted that, and moved us to another room where the air-conditioning didn`t work either, but it had larger windows. Breakfast very average.

"Good location."

Nice receptionist. Rest of staff just OK. Room nothing special. Good breakfast selection and pleasant breakfast staff. The room and all of the corridors were at best stuffy and airless, could be described as stiflingly hot.

"Great hotel in a great location."

The hotel was very easy to find and in a great location. With the west end not far away it is an ideal location to stay if you are either sight seeing or even just staying for a night out in London. I would highly recommend to anybody.

"Very good hotel, clean and tidy and quite quiet. Staff were very courteous and helpful"

The only negative was on returning late at night from going to a theatre we bought a drink at the bar and asked if it was possible to get a sandwich to which the reply was the kitchen was closed, which was fair enough because it was 11.40pm. However, according to the menu, you could get a sandwich on night service. a small niggle, thats all.

"Third stay at Washington. First was a disaster.... due to noisy neighbours and their unruly children"

We were moved three times on first visit, however this was clearly noted, and this last stay we were allocated room 606 which was perfect for us..... clean quiet and comfortable at a very reasonable price for London Mayfair. Staff all efficient and kind..

"Very good hotel- staff all extremely friendly, polite and helpful."

On a very hot weekend we found the air conditioning not quite cool enough and were unable to turn off the heated towel rail in the bathroom . I`m sure if we had requested help with this it would have been sorted. Lots of restaurants nearby in Shepherds Marketl
