A bit underwhelmed by our stay. For starters, parking our car was a thoroughly unpleasant and stressful experience - £45 for one night and we had to drive it and pick it up ourselves from an off-site car park (albeit only 5 minutes walk). I do not understand how a "5 star" hotel does not provide valet parking, especially at this price. As for the spa, whilst it was lovely, it was not made clear until just before our arrival that it was only available to hotel guests at very limited times. Consequently the spa was very busy and we had to get up quite early to use it. Overall, not a bad experience but definitely did not feel like a '5 star' one.

We had a lovely stay at this hotel. The staff were all really friendly and very helpful, providing just the right level of attention. The afternoon tea was nice, as was the spa area. There is a little wear and tear around the thermal bath, and some areas of the room weren't especially clean, but I would return.

The stairs were stained and dirty throughout the building. The bathroom was also dirty. The bed was really droopy in the middle and also very bouncy every time you moved on it. The rooms are located on a busy street with people Shouting outside until 2.30am. You have to pay EXTRA £70 per person to use the on site Spa facilities at a normal time. Which is a Bit of a Con after paying £350/night for a room identical to a Premier Inn room…

Amazing 7-night stay at this hotel which provides real 5-star service in all respects. Special shout out to all the concierge and reception staff, who were always incredibly responsive. Also the nice and polite drivers they use especially David who saved us! Our room was wonderful. After a bad stay in London was so nice to get that warm, happy English hotel feeling again. Loved it and very absolutely strongest recommendation (if you read my hotel reviews they are not always positive)…..
