Fantastic location. If you're heading to London with people on a budget this is a great stay. Rooms are a little on the small side and unfortunately staff were incredibly rude. Not all but the 2 women when checking in were awful.

Location was excellent. Public transportation was convenient as was walking to the museums that interested us. Not a five rating due to staff’s need to be more knowledgeable to help with tourist questions.

A well located hotel for sightseeing, shopping or a theatre visit. The hotel is minutes away from trafallgar & Leicester Square & close to tube stations. The hotel was comfortable & quiet with great staff working on reception.

Walk EVERYWHERE to all the big London attractions! Lovely staff, good breakfast and the price is reasonable, given that London is outrageously expensive. Particularly convenient for theater and museum buffs, and near several underground train lines.
