David, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The Princes Square Hotel is a non-descript quaint English hotel on a quiet winding street, It is a short walking distance to two Tube lines and buses located on a lively street filled with restaurants and grocery stores . Twenty-four hour front desk staff are friendly and helpful. Breakfasts offer a buffet of breads, juices, cold cereals and a self-serve coffee/cappuccino machine; along with a menu of cooked breakfasts. My room for one was small but contained everything I needed for a very comfortable stay (though I did have to have my midnight snacks in bed.). I highly recommend this hotel and would stay there again in a heartbeat.
