London short stay

Really enjoyable couple of nights in London to see a show and sightseeing. The hotel room was very comfortable. The staff were very helpful and friendly. I did email the hotel to ask if the room had an iron and ironing board, I didn’t receive a reply. The room didn’t have an iron. Also, the vent in the bathroom was very noisy from 8am to 10am, both mornings and in the afternoon when we were getting ready to go out again. I told reception when we checked out, I should have told them sooner. We would definitely stay at this hotel again!

The worst hotel experience I ever had! I made a booking at your hotel on February 11, priced at £1040. However, I canceled the reservation on February 18, well within the cancellation window, and proceeded to make a new booking at a lower rate of £858 for the same dates. I received confirmation emails for both actions, confirming the cancellation and the new booking. When I arrived at the hotel, I was alarmed to find that I had been charged the original £1040 rate for the canceled reservation. Over the past two weeks, I have spent a considerable amount of time and effort attempting to resolve this issue with both the hotel and Expedia. Despite providing clear evidence of my cancellation and new booking, the hotel has refused to issue a refund for the extra charge, offering no valid explanation. This situation has left me extremely frustrated and disappointed. The lack of accountability and poor customer service is unacceptable. I have stayed in numerous hotels globally, and I have never encountered such a disregard for customer satisfaction. I strongly urge you to resolve this matter promptly and issue the full refund for the incorrect charge. This experience has significantly tarnished my perception of your hotel, and I hope you will take immediate steps to make it right.

Great location and a good nights sleep

Great location, close to tube, grocery and convenience stores and coffee. Very close to British museum and st Pancras. I loved the square across from the hotel. My husband enjoyed the breakfast. No issues with noise and I’m a very light sleeper. I felt safe at this hotel and the surrounding area. Very highly recommend.
