"Convenient location "

Beautiful hotel, very clean and the staff were very good. The only thing to let the hotel down was the spots of mould in the shower on the silicone.

"Good staff let down by poor management."

Location: Good, Reception and entrance area: Good, Check-in procedure: excellent, Front desk staff: great and friendly Toilet flush was a bit odd, Toilet seat loose, Hand basin did not drain properly, Bath did not drain properly There is a bath with an 18" screen but no curtain so water can escape onto floor - apparently this is policy I was not allowed a wake-up call as this is also policy. All in all good staff are let down by poor management decisions and poor maintenance. But the TV work OK - PHEW !! Definitely NOT a four-star hotel - sorry Thistle.

"Tired"

Hotel staff were very friendly and although we were told we had been `upgraded` to a delux room, it was very obviously for disabled guests with bathroom being a little uncomfortable and no pressure, height adjustment in the shower

"Good location"

Location is the best thing about this hotel. Checking in was up to an hour wait for most people. Not enough staff to clean rooms ready for new arrivals. Every day we saw people sitting after 3pm waiting for a room. We did get complimentary drinks but check in is at 3 so the rooms should be ready for then. Breakfast buffet was ok but all self service so queues at busy times. Lack of staff was the downfall but everything else was good.

"Excellent location"

No evening meal on a Monday night was very disappointing as all the local eateries were booked for pre show meals.The standard double room that came with the package was very small for a 4*double but acceptable for a one night show break. Hotel very clean and staff very friendly and helpful

"The Thistle, Trafalgar Square."

The hotel was fine, some staff are friendly and some are not. The room doors bang everytime someone opens one near you. Leaky shower tray, but otherwise enjoyable.

"Lovely, clean, friendly and so close to the theatre."

Hotel was lovely and clean, has everything you need for your stay. Staff are so friendly and helpful. Breakfast buffet was sooo nice. Don`t have to worry about not getting a meal if it`s late when you come out of a show as you can order almost anything to your room 24/7. Literally 2 mins walk to the theatre and very close to big attractions. Would definitely stay here again.
