Staff so friendly and helpful. Room was fine and clean. Problem with TV was quickly sorted. The 3 theatres we had tickets for were all within walking distance- excellent location for us.

"Great location but disappoitning service"
Sadly overall stay was average but good points to note, hearty breakfast buffet, well laid out,team were pleasant, HSK was very good too. Unfortunately our arrival was V disappointing, they had software upgrade issues but this wasn`t the issue. Firstly ignored & once we got to check-in, the operator (Adit) argued about my booked room category - given a room that had a double bed with 2 chairs (two women traveling together are not always a `couple) returned to reception and again argued with. Thankfully another gentleman stepped in & we received the room as booked-sofa bed was set-up well-V strong unpleasant cheap cologne scent but opened the windows and it was bearable. Checkout, a lovely elderly gentleman took our bags without any fuss as we needed a couple of hours storage - very grateful. The property is lovely and great location too. Service training for the reception team would be advised especially as this is the first impression.

"Great location, lovely rooms and breakfast."
The rooms ( we had two) were clean and comfortable, they had an added bonus, fabulous air conditioning which is rare in many hotels which was handy as it was very hot in London when we stayed. The breakfast was delicious with plenty choice. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Would recommend and stay there again. Very near Oxford street, short walk to Covent garden and theatre district.
