We didn't like that the hot tub was very small. We always had to ask for things that should have been already in place. The hotel getting the massage booking time incorrect, but assuming I had it wrong. All the staff needed to have done was to check emails etc. The lights in rooms etc. Things were not simple enough.

The bottom line is the Hotel Rafayel is good value for the money in London. However, be ready for its quirkiness. The facilities were generally clean. The room was very large and bathroom was extremely large. Everything was well equipped. They have a very good gym as well as a sauna, steam room and Jacuzzi. The hotel is a bit quirky with rather odd decoration which I believe are meant as artistic, bur rather hodgepodge. The Indian food in the restaurant was quite good. There is a small bar and refrigerator in the room with coffee service for the morning. Generally, this hotel was good value for the money and a very good location in London. It was easy to get transportation to anywhere in the city.

Seems like this was a high end hotel at one point. But it’s not kept up well. - tv is sideways from bed. Can’t watch it well. It also has a mess of wires sticking out. - not very quiet. The river view rooms get a lot of noise from the restaurant. Weird noises. - regular helicopters coming and going from the heliport beside Restaurant is weird layout and uncomfortable. But food is very good. - no laundry even though it’s advertised. - not very clean in common areas. - mattress very worn out and sagging. - no regular coffee in room. Only instant coffee View is great. Location is great if you don’t mind the helicopters. But would not stay again.

Good value, great location
Very convenient location, it's not 5 star by any stretch of the imagination , more a good 3 star, lovely bathroom, lights had a mind of their own and curtains didn't keep the light out. Very quiet for London, great views of the river. Didn't see anyone in hotel at all, just reception staff on check in, which was bit eerie.
