"A well presented, clean, modern hotel"

A great hotel. It was very clean and modern. The part I stayed in had just been finsihed and so everything was brand new. Would definitely recommend. Complimentary gown and slippers were a real treat!

Our room was rather small for a 4 star hotel but everything else about the hotel, the level of service, the meals, cleanliness etc, was excellent

"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. Thanks Ted Shaw.

Hotel is lovely and staff very attentive. The beds are so comfortable, best nights sleep I have had for a long time. Only drawback there was no hairdryer provided. Very good stay overall. Would go again.

Rated as average as we did not expect to see groups of men booked in and dress code should not unclude shorts and no collar shirts at meal times

This hotel is in a convenient location on a main road between 2 tube stations, and with shops on either side. The staff are very courteous and when I reported that a bedside lamp needed a replacement bulb someone was there within 10 minutes. The room was clean and tidy, and the bed was probably the most comfortable I`ve experienced in a hotel. On the downside the hot breakfast was only tepid, not helped by being served on cold plates but perhaps I should have dug a little deeper into the scrambled egg. I would definitely stay at this hotel again.

"Enjoyable stay"

Good hotel. Very clean & tidy. Staff at check in and breakfast friendly and efficient. Not asked any Qs at checkout - just keys taken and `next` called as busy - so did not get to make my olny negative comment or feedback NEGATIVE: Maid knocked early on door depsite note saying Do Not Disturb. She returned in 15 mins and knocked and opened the door!! Too keen. Was disappointing and took a little from a good hotel.

"ROOM SIZE"

The Double room we were allocated initially was extremely small and the double bed was against the wall on one side - would question if this should be classed as a double room? However as soon as we spoke to Reception we were allocated a larger room with no trouble - would question the case if the hotel had been busier as it would have been nearly impossible to get out of bed without asking my husband to get out first! Overall the staff were very pleasant and helpful, public areas well maintained and breakfast good.

when we arrived the room was a little dark as we where facing a half brick wall, we went to reception and asked could we move, as my wife has a problem with dark enclosed spaces. Nothing was too much trouble, they told us they would change our room and put our luggage in our new room,and to go out and enjoy our day. On returning to the hotel are room had been changed for a far superior room. Light and airy, everything was perfect. All the staff in the hotel are exceptional in their customer service.Breakfast was also a good variety.Could not fault this hotel at all. We will be returning to this hotel in the near future for another visit to London.W

"This is a great hotel for comfort, quality and location."

Having stayed in the best hotels in the west end we found the DT west end exceptional value. Having read other reviews, we were surprised at the comments about the staff. It would seem to us that the Hotel has had a complete turn around and we found the staff to be helpful annd polite in the extreme. Would not hestitate to recommend.

Hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. We arrived well before the stated check in time but were allowed to check into our room with not problems. Although the room was quite basic and not very big it had all we needed and was very clean. The bed was very comfortable and the buffet breakfast was excellent. IT was only a 15 min walk to the theatre and the secure car park was only a few minutes away. If you show your receipt from the hotel at the car park they will give you a discount. I would definately recommend it for a stay in London.

My sister and I stayed last Thursday night and found everything to be first rate. The hotel was everything we had hoped for and all the staff were very helpful and friendly. I would certainly recommend it to my friends and will stay again when I come to see another West End Show.
