A wonderful stay
We had the most wonderful stay here. It was my husband's birthday and the hotel acknowledged this perfectly with little treats. The room was perfectly clean and a great size for our family of four. All the staff were extremely helpful and very friendly. The location is excellent for getting around and seeing all the sights with Gloucester Road tube station across the road. We would definitely recommend the hotel.

Family trip to London
We stayed here for two nights and the hotel is modern and clean. The room was comfortable and a decent size for us and our toddler to stay in. Amenities were what you would expect for the room (kettle, coffee/tea and toiletries). The staff were incredibly lovely and went above and beyond to make my daughter feel included. For any light sleepers I would keep in mind that if you have a room at the front of the hotel the road can be quite noisy, but this didn’t impact my trip in a negative.

Room was Awesome
The room was perfect for our family. The food was pretty good too. However he had a very cold beef dish on a cold plate when it stated it would be served on a hot plate. They did warm it up and didn’t even bring a fresh one or remove it from the bill. But I suppose that was a restaurant issue really.

Brilliant place
Absolute god send. We booked another hotel which was very dirty and didn’t feel safe so we moved to this hotel. As soon as we walked it it felt safe and secure, super clean and cared for. Reception staff were amazing and we got a free cookie on checkin. Room was a great size and clean. Beds are firm but comfortable great after a day of walking. Location is brilliant opposite a tube station and near the shop

2/10 Poor

Avoid - Theft and Unclean
Arrived at the hotel and we were offered a complimentary upgrade to a family duplex suit which was very kind. The room looked clean and welcoming, we were told that the sofa would be turned in to a bed for the children whilst we were out at the theatre which was no problem at all. Upon leaving the room we noticed a pair of knickers under a television stand - disgusting really as the room clearly hadn’t been cleaned. We let reception know, the guy was very apologetic and advised it would be sorted asap. We came back from the theatre late, the children’s bed had been made and an apology given with the offer of breakfast. The room hadn’t been cleaned despite a note saying it had - there were still dirty glasses, tea spoons etc. but the knickers had gone!! In the morning we packed to leave. Whilst packing it was then we noticed my daughters purse had gone. We’d come to London for my birthday and for her to spend her birthday money and someone had taken it from the room. A pink smiggle purse - there’s no mistaking it was a child’s purse. We should absolutly have put it in the safe but stupidly during the push to leave we forgot. Do not go to this hotel - they have a clear issue with cleanliness and theft! I’ll be escalating this with more facts for the hotels mangagers but I will absolutly have for this happen to anyone else. A fantastic birthday trip ruined by one person. We turned the rook upside down looking, offered to look with staff have them check our bags etc.
