London hotels & places to stay

“Beautiful residential area, near the embassy row. Stone's throw away from Kensington Palace and Hyde Park. Easily accessible by buses and Kensington High Stree Station. Apartments have been newly revamped/upgraded. We were first assigned apartment 11 (2-bedroom) on the 4th floor but the lift break down so we were moved to apartment 1 (3-bedroom) on the lower ground floor. Both apartments are superb. Although housekeeping has to be reminded to pay attention to the details (of cleaning)”

“I was a bit worried before I got here because of some low rating reviews. However, while I was staying here for two days, I had no difficulty staying here except I had to jump over my carrier. At least I could leave my carrier open on the floor, though. The room was clean during the stay (hotel will NOT change your bed sheets but Will make the bed for you). Shampoo, bodywash, and soaps were refilled. The room had a good air conditioner, unlimited hot water from the shower, and a small TV which had a minor issue(maybe resolution problem). Wifi was working fine and okay speed. I was also satisfied with the breakfast buffet. It had various menus and decent taste. I liked how they took care of little details such as preparing small plastic spoons for their yogurts. Although the price wasn't cheap for me as a traveling student, but it is probably because I booked the room a day before my stay. In general, I really enjoyed staying at this hotel.”

“From being directed into the pram accessible door with ramp by the lovely porters at the front .. to having our room ready at 11am rather than 3pm by Noelle .. our whole experience at the amba hotel was 10 out of 10. Locates 2 minutes from Oxford Street .. across the road from hyde park winter wonderland .. 10-15 minutes taxi ride from Euston .. we only have praise for this hotel and can’t wait to book for next year! Our room was huge compared to other London hotels .. clean modern .. free mini bar. Just fantastic! Thankyou amba Marble Arch!”

“We only stayed at The Shard for one night as part of my 65th birthday and retirement celebration. From the moment we entered the room it was breath-taking. The view (41st floor) was truly amazing, even when it was raining in the morning. Dinner in the restaurant was of Masterchef standard i.e. exquisite. The staff made us feel like royalty. They were courteous respectful and cheerful from front of house staff through to housekeepers and waiters. Nothing was too much trouble for them. The room itself was wonderful with every conceivable modern convenience and service. There was even cable internet for those without Wi Fi. We would surely recommend the Shard to anyone thinking of staying at a truly five star hotel in London.”

“Simply one of the best hotel in London. The rooms are great. The bed is big and comfortable, the pillows and the bed sheets are clean and comfortable. The lighting is perfect, the bathroom has heated floor, and the room temperature is just perfect. The only problem is that sometimes the card key have problem, but the receptionist could sort it out quickly. The location is very good, almost perfect. It's near to Hyde Park, near two tube station Queensway and Bayswater, and located near lots of foods and groceries. The room is also spacious, well-lit (using touch control lighting) and very clean. The staff is friendly and very accommodating. We have tons of requests but they help us in all of them. They show us the best way to visit the city, show the route to the coach station, and many more.”

“Very good stay, hotel overall is very nice, although rooms are small in size but it's location in a very nice shopping aria cover this issue. The staff specialty the customer service are excellent ... rooms are clean, loopy hall is very nice. Yes the value is somehow high but it is in the acceptable range in London. Hotel is advisable for all kind of travelers ... food is very good... TVs channels need to be increased. Bathroom is clean and very.well covered with all necessary issues. Staff are very helpful.”

“At the west end of London lies the district of Hmmersmith. It is a small district but it has its own charm and tranquility afar from the bustling area of central London. The hotel is modern new and chic best suited for the family and if your on a budget. The staff are very friendly courteous and accomodating specially Victor who helped me with my questions and booking my tours around London. Free breakfast is plentiful and their packaged i cute paper bags. Only thing is the design of toilet and shower which were separate and a bit small. The hotel is 5 mins from Hammersmith station and many shops. All in all my experience is superb at this great hotel. I would recommend this and will definitely come back for more.”

“I know London inside out having lived there for ~20 years, and I would say this hotel is very well-located - just a very short walk from a tube station. (There are many hotels on the west side around South Kensington/Hyde Park, but really this is much more conveniently-located for Central London activities.) Another good thing about this hotel is the fact that, it is modern (many 3-4 stars hotels are have very dated decoration and facilities in London), clean and the staff are friendly and helpful. For the price I paid, this hotel is very outstanding.”

“I booked the Santum Soho as we were out at the thetre and wanted it as a treat from My husband. The location is great, close to so many bars and restaurants and Carnaby Street. Our room was small but normal for a london hotel. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was a wet room. We did not use the roof top bar or the restaurants so can't comment but had a wander in the morning and the roof bar looked like it would have been fun. Minor irritations: no shower cap and it was a waterfall shower so you couldn't just have a wash without washing your hair ( I could have called for one apparently bt a bit late when you are already in the bathroom.) There is no tea and coffee making facilities (as the owner wants people to use the restaurants). I missed my morning cup of tea and didn't fancy spending £3.50 for on downstairs. The TV was on the wall to the side of the bed so if you wanted to watch something you got a crick in the neck. But these are minor and we had a great stay.”

“This is the second time I have stayed at the Hyatt Regency Churchill. It is a luxury hotel and the location is absolutely fantastic. The staff at the hotel are extremely welcoming and seem to go out of their way to do whatever you need, from the doorman to the reception to the Club staff. Really excellent. I booked a Club Room, which I highly recommend. The rooms are fairly standard, but large for UK standards. Well appointed and clean. The location is perfect. It is situated on Portman Square, which is a large park, which gives the impression of space. The hotel is a short walk to Oxford Street from which you can easily access downtown London to the left or towards Marble Arch and Harrods to the right. It is all right there. Nothing is more than a short walk away. The hotel has a small gym (don't forget to turn on the air conditioning, otherwise it gets quite warm) and is quite a happening place. There is a restaurant downstairs that seems always busy and the Churchill Bar on the corner. But if you want to get outside the hotel, there are lots of eating and drinking options that are London favourites. Room Tip: Book a Club room. The Facilities are very English and very enjoyable.”

“The hotel is in an excellent location. It is very close to the Lamberth North tube station and buses. You can walk 10 minutes to the London Eye. Tesco Express and other convenience stores are close by. The room was very nice. The front-office staff was nice. The main problem is that the hotel is very noisy due to the vehicular traffic on the road in front of it. So you should request a quiet room not facing the traffic and on the highest floor possible. The hotel has a bunch of elevators. Another problem is that the cleaning lady can be stingy with the toiletry stuff and free water. We had 4 people. The cleaning lady did not provide enough toiletry stuff, and we had to ask for extra. The first day that we were there she put 4 free water bottles in the fridge. But the next several days she gave us only 2 water bottles. So we have to call every day to get 2 more water bottles. We paid a lot of money for the hotel. So they should not have been so stingy.”

“My friends and I enjoyed our stay. We really felt welcomed and liked the fact that this was the first hotel in london to have the 'qibla direction' (never seen in other hotels) for prayers. The rates are affordable and the location is very convenient.”

“lovely stay at the Z, great service by the staff during our trip last weekend. able to drop our bags off in the morning before check-in to go round london. free cheese and wine every night between 5-8pm which is always busy and a lovely atmosphere in a boutiquey hotel and dining area. the rooms are small which is expected for a building of its size but more than enough when your visiting london as your out throughout the day and evening. beds were good though. typical modern hotel glass bathroom/shower area but the sink area is small and awkward but good shower. full sky tv in the rooms too with all the channels which is great and free wifi which is added bonuses as most chain hotels charge for wifi and dont have full tv package. air con unit is locked and can only change the temp but our room didnt get cold for the temperature and windows cant be opened so was a bit warm but fine but maybe the unit needed a check/service. would definitely stay here again though as for the price and location and free extras its unbeatable and its only a couple mins walk from traf square so your saving money you would spend on a cheaper hotel further outer london needing to get tube/train into central london. great service by all the staff too!!”

“I have stayed at the Tune Hotel before and this is my go-to London hotel! Located just down the road from King's Cross it's in a perfect location to get anywhere via Underground. The rooms can be quite small but are clean. Compared to the cost of other central London hotels, this place is inexpensive but you get a clean, well-kept room for the minimal price you pay. I've stayed in other higher star rated hotels that were dumps compared to this place. Highly recommended for solo or pair travelers!”

“London House hotel is a good place to stay. The front desk staffs are very helpful. The cleaners always do the cleaning well. Taking the room with the garden view is recommended as every morning you will feel very refreshed just looking through the window. There are also some snack machine at the lobby if you wish to eat something. I am curious if the toilet amenities can include Toothbrush and toothpaste, it will be best. London House Hotel is quite near to both Bayswater and queenways station which is the best location to stay.”

“this really is one of the best hotels i have stayed in within london, for a long time! i really couldn't fault it! (and we stay in a lot of hotels worldwide!) from the minute we arrived, for the whole weekend, the staff were really friendly and helpful, they couldn't do enough for you (even offering free cheese and wine in the evening!) the room was fairly small (as you would expect in a boutique hotel in london), but was exceptionally comfortable with a huge bed and all mod cons. we loved the modern element of the glass walled shower room that's part of the whole room and the huge flatscreen tv with sky tv! bonus! it is also literally a minutes walk from victoria station and tube and london's museums and buckingham palace are just a short walk through beautiful belgravia... this really is a jewel in victoria's crown and we loved it and will definitely visit again! thank you!”

“it was well worth the money for a central hotel in london the staff where excellent and friedly,the service ,food,and very clean hotel. the only thing was it was a bit of a walk from the tube station at westminster but that was my choice to walk and not get a taxi (cheaper)”

“the hotel was newly renovated, all the rooms were furnished modern and the bathrooms were also very modern and clean. we were impressed by the value we received for such a good price. it's hard to find a hotel in london that is not oldish or run down. the staff was very friendly and helpful and always available. the gym was out of order, but that's ok. the location of the hotel was right next to a tube station, very convenient.”

“My first impression when arrive to this hotel was WOW .. cos I can feel the luxury in this hotel ... and what more that my room was upgraded to the bigger one which was so spacious yet the number so scary "444" but Praise the Lord that everything was okay during our stay as God protected us :-) The location is opposite the railway station and there were some buses stops nearby the hotel, so it;s so convenient if you want to go anywhere in London city by bus or by train. The facilities itself are so great, we can have fitness and indoor pool, sauna, and you can eat fruits for free everyday there. Definitely nice to stay here in Landmark London hotel yet it's a bit pricey.”

“The Pilgrim is now my favourite hotel in London. It’s not only tastefully done but it’s clean, and has everything you need, with understated efficiency. There’s no fuss, no process, no uniforms, just fantastic service, comfort ,and decor . Everything was perfect.”

“Overall my stay exceeded expectations. Awesome location , the suite I booked was great for my friend and me for the three nights. The biggest call out is the staff - they were very friendly and extremely helpful. They allowed me to leave my bags for a few days while I travelled a bit of Europe, this was greatly appreciated! Thank you guys! The only down side was the check in - after 23hrs of travel and arriving at 8.30 am , the room being available, could not be prioritised for cleaning until 2pm! This i could not understand but that said the ladies at the reception were awesome and very understanding. Overall, I’ll definitely come back here and would recommend to my friends travelling to London to stay here.”

“This is a really classic old world London hotel. The staff is wonderful, the hotel is beautiful and the rooms are spacious and comfortable if you stretch to a junior suite. The location is perfect for shopping or touring and you can walk to almost any place you would want to go.”

“sharing a room with 20 others is not easy, but it's hostel life, and for $ in the center of london you can't expect luxury. the showers were hot and the beds comfortable enough. one thing you should be aware of if you bring your own laptop is that you only get 1 hour of free wifi per day.”

“I love this hostel!! Fab location and brilliant prices. I stayed two nights instead of just the usual one and really enjoyed my time in London. I did just find the room way too hot and stuffy so think the heating needs to be turned quite a bit down but otherwise its a fab place to stay!! Look forward to coming back soon :)”

“Probably the best hostel where I have been in London, clean, self- catering kitchen, comfy beds and helpful staff. Location is good as it' s close to bus stop to central London, overground and underground at a walkable distance.”

“I stayed here for one night in late October. I got a bed in a shared room for very cheap, obviously this is ideal if you're a young traveler on a budget wanting to stay in central London! But saving money can come at the expense of your well being...I have a motto of 'you get what you pay for', and I think next time I'll have to spend a little more for the sake of a good nights sleep. In my opinion its false economy if you get a cheap room but the worst night sleep of your life, and thus the next day of your life is spent feeling like sh**. So yeah you saved money, but spent a lot more in terms of stress. The room I stayed in was just awful - a small, long room with very high ceilings, which meant that three triple-story bunk beds were crammed into it. The beds rocked and wobbled like crazy each time I climbed mine, and whenever the sleeper above me moved or climbed up/down, the disturbance was hideous. Someone might as well have been shaking me with their bare hands. The beds were also very small, smaller than a single bed, and cramped. No where to put luggage either. There was no ventilation except for a small fan. It was VERY hot and VERY uncomfortable. Last but not least, the noise from the neighboring room was super loud and intrusive. I know its a cheap hostel in central London, but not everyone chooses to stay in one of these because they're interested in bar crawls! All I could hear almost all night was a hoard of yelling, drunken yobs. After a night of tossing, turning, noise and a quaking bed I spent most of my morning feeling crap, and it showed. Who wants to feel like that when they're having a weekend in the city?? I don't understand why some of these cheap hostels can't have half of the hostel a more peaceful zone, and the other half a party-goers/pub-crawl zone. I don't think it would cost much to do that! The staff at reception were nice. The bathrooms were alright. Just basic, like college toilets. At least they weren't too grubby. Although I will”

“It was one of the best stays for me in london , the stuff is very friendly beds are nice comfortable and the place is close to all the stations and underground .. truly loved it”

“we arrive 10am when check in time is 2pm x a kind staff says its ok to ckin as room already available x very cheap and afforadable x near london overground station x new cross or new cross gate station x but it would be noisy at night due a pub just below x ppl in need of quiet place shld avoid x”

“I stayed Saturday and Sunday night, I advice if you plan on going to sleep before 3 am to choose somewhere else on a Saturday night as being on top of a Pub they have raging party's ;) :D That was the only Negative, some extra soundproofing would be nice. Beds were good although I felt my blanket was a bit short :') Power to your bed is great. Only two showers per level but it didn't seem to matter much, a wire box that's lockable in your room is helpful, washing machine and dryer were great although you need your own powder (can buy at desk). Cleaned once a day so unless there is lots of dirty muddy people it's good, breakfast is decent, cerials hot drinks juice toast yogurt cheese and meat, and the food at the bar is amazing. You get discounts on most things aswell. There is a train station 15m from the door which makes it easy to get into London. Definitely advice during the week buy on a weekend you may find it loud despite the earplugs that are provided.”

“Good: Budget nights. Kind staffs. Might be good place for making friends Best dorm hostel for cleanliness. Bad: poor showering facility, but clean. Malfunctions found in shower head.”

“all worker are friendly not good bed but you should know that you are staying at cheapest hostel in london if i go london again i will visit here again”

“Hostel is situated just a minute or two walk away from the Hammersmith Underground, so it's extremely convenient considering the accessibility to most location in London can be made by Underground. Bed is clean and room/bathroom was maintained daily during my stay. The restaurant below the hostel serve nice food and beer for tired traveller after a long day out.”

“Agoda had messed up my booking - confirmed something different than what was booked at the hostel. That was of course disappointing after our long trip from Australia, but all comp,iments to the staff behind the reception... tbey were amazing. Tried to make it work for us, the client. The hostel was amazing, what a beautiful old building and very easy access to the 'underground'. I am sure that l will return again, next time l am in London, but then l'll book straight through the hostel.”

“Probably one of the better hostels i've stayed in, mostly Clean, helpful staff and right across the street from the tube station. It's cheap, and yeah, you get what you pay for so if you're used to five star hotels i wouldn't recomend this hostel. The biggest downside is probably that the reception is in the middle of a bar and it's really loud at times which made it hard to have a conversation with the staff. Still, it's a decent hostel in central London, i've stayed in much crappier places in this city and i wouldn't mind staying there again.”

“It was my first ever time as a backpacker I didn't know what to expect or what to do. When I arrived Angelica was working and she took my details and made me so welcome. She kept an eye out for me and each day (3 days) she would welcome me back from my sightseeing and serve me a nice cold beer with a warm and friendly smile. Beds were clean and so was the bathroom. 25% of breakfast set me up for the day. Yum! You can get a locker for valuables. I felt safe and the other guests were respectful. Early mornings Francesco was working and he was a happy and very helpful individual who made my coffee and answered any queries with a smile. Other bar staff were great too. Overall I would highly recommend that you stay here whilst in London. The Edgeway Road Station is 30 m away and this links into wherever you need to go. London was a fabulous experience for me. Just over the side street there is an excellent Egyptian take away or sit down and the food here was delicious. Good vegetarian.”

“all the paintings in the hostel is really beautiful and I really appreciate those artwork, however the ventilation of the hostel isn't that good so the paint smell keeps staying in the corridors and makes the place not as nice as it looks. The bathroom and toilet is clean. There aren't enough plugs for everyone in the room. The receptionists are all very nice and really helpful.”

“Location was superb, staff was friendly and helpful, food in the pub was very good. Rooms are clean, with door locks and lockers for your gear while out for the day, which is always nice when backpacking. Shared toilets were in decent shape and cleaned daily, but if you're not used to converted old buildings, might seem rough. Plenty of hot water for the showers. All in all, a good place to stay if you're looking for a hostel in the heart of London, and the price is hard to beat. I hope to return before long.”

“the hostel was very central; it is super near to king's cross/st pancras. the room (private room) was small but did its job. a bit hot at night, though. showers and toilets were always clean when we used them, there was never traffic at the bathrooms or the breakfast hall. breakfast consisted of a lot of choices and was very cheap (2 pounds each person). staff was VERY friendly and had a lot of good advices for sightseeing and so on. only thing that really annoyed us was the noise at night. the first night some backpackers partied so loud that we had to tell the staff, which told them to turn down the music which the partypeople did. additionally, there were earplugs provided in the rooms. I guess backpackers are aware that hostels can be noisy. besides that it was a wonderful cheap stay in the heart of london.”

“Location is near the London Kings Cross Station so that means plenty of bus stops available nearby. There are also a number of eating places around. However, I felt like there should be more shower stalls available. The floor I was in only had the boys' shower. I had to go down one floor to use the shower and toilet. The USB charging unit above my bunk bed would only let me charge one device at a time. Good think there are options for using wall plugs. I stayed at the four only dorm and on my last night I found myself with three male Asians who snore. I'm not sure if they were put there because we are all Asians (but I'm a girl!) or whatever. Note that there are three steps up before the reception and no ramp to facilitate luggage handling. But the staff seemed nice.”

“Very good location, 3 minutes to london bridge underground and to famous london bridge 5 minutes walk to borough underground 3 minutes walk to borough market 1 minutes walk, just cross the street to sainsbury grocery store Comfortable bed with curtain (although its time to do maintenance for the curtain) Clean toilet Clean shower room, big pressure for the water hot or cold with shower gel provided. Loving shower here Hair dryer Common room Cooking room Friendly and fast reception. You need to deposit 2 £ for the key”

“Great place to stay - we booked it on a chance as we needed cheap accommodation on a Monday night near to Brixton Academy - it's a short walk from a tube station but on lots of bus routes. The dorm itself was exceptionally clean and had all the essentials - USB plug sockets, modern lighting and design. I personally really liked the wall mounted baskets next to each bed - perfect for storing phone on charge, a bottle of water etc. The staff were all great, and the 10% off drinks 24/7 and 25% off brunch was actually fantastic - we ate all of our meals there and it was good quality home cooked food. Will stay here again for sure!”

“Best hostel I ever stayed in London! Already booked a second time and would recommend it without any hesitation. The room was very clean, spacious and the facilities appeared to be quite new. Deserved 4 Star hostel! The staff was friendly and always helpful. The elevator didn't work, but who cares, my room was on the first floor, so no problem at all. The room had no lockers but metal cages for every guest, my whole suitcase did fit into it and I used my one padlock to lock it up. There are several bus stations right next to the building. 3-5 minutes walk to 1-Pound-shop, Morrisons, Tesco Express, Mcdonalds, KFC and some other restaurants/bars. thumbs up (I didn't have breakfast at the hostel, but I have been told that it's tasty)”

“I had stayed at 5 different hostels/hotels in London last October and November and 3 of them were Generator. Yes I was very satisfied :) Every staff and roomates I met were nice. Even though there was a tiny little problem with my bookings, staffs were careful and they tried their best to make me feel comfortable. I was using 3 mobile and it was hard for me to use 3g in the hostel but I could use free wifi-it was fast and safe to access.”

“My friend and I stayed for 2 nights in a 6-bed female dorm. It was good, no problems at all, but we think that 6 people in that room felt a little cramped. They had lockers, but one of them had no door, so if the room was full, one person would need to find a way to keep their things secure. The light in the room was too dim. The bed was good though, the linen too. They have towels to rent. The shared bathroom was ok, good shower, but it is a unisex bathroom. I didn't know that. And I never asked because I thought there would be separated restrooms. Well, maybe there are, but there was one right in front of our door, so... It wasn't a problem for us, but it is good to know. There are no lifts, so be aware if you are traveling with big suitcases. The pub underneath the hostel was great. It wasn't noisy, the food was really good. One of the best mac and cheese I ever had! amazing burgers too. The staff was kind and helpful. Actually, you go to the pub counter to check-in and it was fun because it feels like a tavern. For a pint, I recommend the Titanic Stout. Loved it. It was a short, but good stay. If you are traveling on a budget and want to stay very close to an underground and train station, this is the place. London Euston is 5 minutes away. Ah! And a TV Show was filmed right around the corner! If you like BBC Sherlock, 221B Baker Street (the TV one... the actual one is a few tube stations away) and Speedy's Café are just a few blocks away.”

“This was the best stay in London I have ever had and I've stayed in a few hostels. Excellent on all fronts - I love the area so for me the location didn't matter. For some they might prefer a more central location but you compromise on the quality of the hostel in my opinion and what is a tube journey - easy lines and running till after the showtimes.”

“Very good value for money being in such a central part of London. Beds are more comfortable than I've had in similar priced hostels. Music heard around the hostel (I think from the bar in the basement) was to my taste - mainly rock and pop punk being played. Showers were better than I initially thought they'd be as there's no temperature control (on the one I used at least) but it was nicely warm. However the shower head was quite low and fixed at that height, so it was a little bit awkward to wash my hair. Breakfast was plentiful, with lots of cereals, bread / toast with a variety of spreads, pancake mix, juice and a coffee machine. It was also wonderful to see the cat wandering around acting like he owned the place and making sure people were behaving!”

“Quiet neighborhood but located in the center of London, walking distance to the tube station, many shops and restaurants nearby. Stuff are friendly, and you can store the luggage temporarily in the room free of charge - this was really helpful for me, because I arrived much earlier than check-in time with large luggage. I will not hesitate to recommend here for those who want stay a while in London! Room of improvement: Wifi is weak even in the public area”

“Amazing location, wonderful property in the middle of a park. Excellent staff. Incredible price to the location and quality. (If you've ever been to a hotel in London, you will know what I mean.) Please note this is still a youth hostel, with bunk beds and shared bathrooms.”

“Good location for long stay. Eazy to go everyware in London. Brekfast is ok. But no kitchen facility. Londry facilities are not working properly Note. No sope stands in bathrooms. Unable to control room heathers.”

“is the first time I ever stayed in a hostel and I was not dissapointed, good service, clean all up to my expectations and value for money, as is really hard to find anything cheap in central london this was a really good choice to spend a night there!”

“We only stayed at The Shard for one night as part of my 65th birthday and retirement celebration. From the moment we entered the room it was breath-taking. The view (41st floor) was truly amazing, even when it was raining in the morning. Dinner in the restaurant was of Masterchef standard i.e. exquisite. The staff made us feel like royalty.

“This is a really classic old world London hotel. The staff is wonderful, the hotel is beautiful and the rooms are spacious and comfortable if you stretch to a junior suite. The location is perfect for shopping or touring and you can walk to almost any place you would want to go.”

“I stayed at Rafayel Hotel and Spa with my partner and 2 children, it is a beautiful hotel with wonderful, helpful and friendly staff - nothing was too much trouble with our many requests. The room was amazing and the hotel is perfectly situated in Battersea to go to the Natural History Museum , Waterloo and many other locations/attractions. The hotel offers a shuttle service to Clapham Junction and is very informative on navigating round London. We loved it so much we stayed another night and will definitely go again. The food was delicious also, we had room service with the most divine steaks and had Eggs benedict for breakfast - all round it is a fabulous hotel in a fabulous location.”

“Fantastic hotel in the heart of Mayfair. Was up Graded to the 27 floor for free with one of the best Views of London. Lovely hotel nice Staff. Hotel very clean and fresh. Would deffenently Return there again if the same price deals came Up”

“This hotel is a gem. It must be said, the lack of disclosure on it's halal and dry status is a surprise, but it's wonderful in every other way. You may read reviews that the Tube sound is loud, it's not that bad, and it's part of being in London. The design and layout of the hotel, public spaces and rooms is elegant, clever and desirable. We felt it was a haven to escape the noise and bustle of London, filled with elegant surrounds and quirky little touches that made our stay the best of a 2.5 week trip around the UK.”

“It is difficult to find a reasonably priced hotel in London. However, the Regency was good value for the money and an easy ride to the West End theater district. We had a very pleasant stay.”

“Without a doubt the best place we have ever stayed in London. Every member of staff were incredibly accommodating, professional and friendly, especially Giovanni (front of house) who upgraded us to a riverview suite because there were no suites ready when we first arrived (which was 9am). He took our moble number and called when the suite was available, outstanding service, can't wait to go back.”

“I was staying in another hotel during my first 5 days in London, then was off to York for 2N before returning to London for my last 3N, where I was booked at the Principal. I was unsure where best to store a big luggage bag prior to my travel to York as the other hotel's policy did not allow overnight storage . I called up the Principal to get their suggestion and an extremely helpful representative called Hamza offered me to store my luggage there instead, even though I had not checked in. What a big relief that was to me, the various external paid options all came with logistical challenges. When i arrived at the hotel, everyone at the Principal from the doorman to concierge was so professional and helpful that I felt very assured that the luggage would be safe. I enjoyed my stay at the Principal very much. The hotel was magnificent and grand, the room with the vintage decor was superb. There was even a tuck box filled with snacks for the guest! Will def return for a longer stay!”

“Marvin & buddhika, you guys recently helped me with reservation and check in on Feb 6. Thanks to you and the other staff, The rooms were clean and comfortable. I can say this is one of the best hotels we stayed in London,The room was very, very clean and modern. The staff at the front desk was very friendly, helpful and professional.. I definitely would stay at this hotel again. 5 star rating ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Booked a junior suite for 3 travellers. The pull out sofa was perfect for our teenager. The room came with a great patio but as it was winter we were not able to enjoy it. The room came with a nespresso machine, ironing board and the usual amenities. Housekeeping was very responsive, providing frequent towel changes in view of the damp weather at this time of year. The room service menu was excellent and delicious, coming from the Gordon Ramsey restaurant at the hotel. The hotel is located very near the shops at Oxford Street and the subway stop Bond Street. It was also a short walk to a catholic church for the holiday masses and to Hyde Park to enjoy the beautiful landscapes. We really enjoyed our stay.”

“Our best experiences were in the AG restaurant. The food and our server were so enjoyable. We’ve had three soufflés so far on this trip and none have come close to their strawberry soufflé. Our server was a real positive in our dining experience. The older concierge who waited by the door made us feel welcome and comfortable. We arrived an hour early for checkin, having just come from the airport and jet lagged. The younger French man at the desk said he would find us when our room was ready. We had lunch and enjoyed the outside area. We were completely forgotten. My husband checked twice during that time period. It was almost an hour after regular check in time before we were in our room. It wasn’t a great first impression.”

“The location is excellent, size of the one bedroom apartment is spacious compared to most hotels in london, has a walk in closet. Daily housekeeping services. The only obstacle was that check-in was at 3 pm and check out was at 11 am, so if you arrive early they will direct you to another building that has a reception to leave your luggage until check in time which was 8 minutes by car.”

“The Langham is one of the best hotels in London! Not only does it have a great location and excellent service, but the hotel is very comfortable and offers many amenities! They are steps from the best shopping in London and reasonably close to public transportation. The restaurants are excellent as is the bar and mixology options. I also like their facilities - they are one of the few hotels to offer an excellent workout facility complete with an swimming pool for lap swimming. Highly recommend the Langham, I have stayed in many hotels in London and they are the best value for the price!”

“I would rate rate my stay at the Grovener's house as excellent... The breakfast was fabulous every morning; just right... The tea lounge was also spectacular. All the staff was very well prepared and ready to help us at any time. I was very impressed with the food, the lobby, the atmosphere, the reception area, the conceirge, everything. When we asked for theatre tickets, we were helped on the spot; airport pickup and drop off were also provided. Overall, it was spectacular... And the location of the hotel is also marvelous, right at the heart of what's happening and the shopping areas of London. What empressed me the most is I forgot my watch in the room, and they staff and security were able to mail it to me to Paris on the same day. Honestly, that made my stay even more worthwhile.”

“Blakes is a lovely boutique hotel at the heart of London. It is walking distance from most places, and very close to the Gloucester tube station. The rooms are romantic, and the staff are always ready to help. My second stay in less than a year, enjoyed it thoroughly.”

“the sofitel was very easy to find after arriving at terminal 5 heathrow airport,just a short internal walk to the right after exiting the terminal. check in was efficient and speedy and the staff very friendly. the room itself was lovely,very clean, new and very quiet. its size was also a pleasant surprise after staying in other hotels in london! i would definitely stay here again if catching an early flight the next day,beats getting up at an unearthly hour and trying to brave the underground or taxis.”

“The hotel itself is truly beautiful and the location couldn't get much better. My room was on the 6th floor and had not only all the amenities but was large by London standards. And lovely and quiet which I needed. The staff were exceptional and beyond friendly and helpful in all respects of my stay. The breakfasts where excellent. I will be making the St James my hotel of choice from now on. Truly don't understand how this hotel has received some negative reviews. It is absolutely superb. I will be back.”

“I stay at the Westbury regularly and it is really good value given the location. The bars, restaurants and club are great and the facilities and room are really good. For shopping you cannot get much better being just off Bond Street. Good for business, couples, families and all types of travellers. This is my regular London Hotel.”

“I booked the hotel as part of a break to celebrate my parents diamond wedding anniversary and contacted the hotel prior to my stay to ask if they could do anything to help the celebration. They upgraded their room and delivered flowers, champagne and chocolates to the room which was symptomatic of the service received throughout the stay. The hotel provides all that would be expected froma 5 star hotel on Park Lane in London and met all expectations (even to the point of the room service and breakfast being typical Park Lane prices)”

“Beautiful residential area, near the embassy row. Stone's throw away from Kensington Palace and Hyde Park. Easily accessible by buses and Kensington High Stree Station. Apartments have been newly revamped/upgraded. We were first assigned apartment 11 (2-bedroom) on the 4th floor but the lift break down so we were moved to apartment 1 (3-bedroom) on the lower ground floor. Both apartments are superb. Although housekeeping has to be reminded to pay attention to the details (of cleaning)”

“I was a bit worried before I got here because of some low rating reviews. However, while I was staying here for two days, I had no difficulty staying here except I had to jump over my carrier. At least I could leave my carrier open on the floor, though. The room was clean during the stay (hotel will NOT change your bed sheets but Will make the bed for you). Shampoo, bodywash, and soaps were refilled. The room had a good air conditioner, unlimited hot water from the shower, and a small TV which had a minor issue(maybe resolution problem). Wifi was working fine and okay speed. I was also satisfied with the breakfast buffet. It had various menus and decent taste. I liked how they took care of little details such as preparing small plastic spoons for their yogurts. Although the price wasn't cheap for me as a traveling student, but it is probably because I booked the room a day before my stay. In general, I really enjoyed staying at this hotel.”

“From being directed into the pram accessible door with ramp by the lovely porters at the front .. to having our room ready at 11am rather than 3pm by Noelle .. our whole experience at the amba hotel was 10 out of 10. Locates 2 minutes from Oxford Street .. across the road from hyde park winter wonderland .. 10-15 minutes taxi ride from Euston .. we only have praise for this hotel and can’t wait to book for next year! Our room was huge compared to other London hotels .. clean modern .. free mini bar. Just fantastic! Thankyou amba Marble Arch!”

“Simply one of the best hotel in London. The rooms are great. The bed is big and comfortable, the pillows and the bed sheets are clean and comfortable. The lighting is perfect, the bathroom has heated floor, and the room temperature is just perfect. The only problem is that sometimes the card key have problem, but the receptionist could sort it out quickly. The location is very good, almost perfect. It's near to Hyde Park, near two tube station Queensway and Bayswater, and located near lots of foods and groceries. The room is also spacious, well-lit (using touch control lighting) and very clean. The staff is friendly and very accommodating. We have tons of requests but they help us in all of them. They show us the best way to visit the city, show the route to the coach station, and many more.”

“Very good stay, hotel overall is very nice, although rooms are small in size but it's location in a very nice shopping aria cover this issue. The staff specialty the customer service are excellent ... rooms are clean, loopy hall is very nice. Yes the value is somehow high but it is in the acceptable range in London. Hotel is advisable for all kind of travelers ... food is very good... TVs channels need to be increased. Bathroom is clean and very.well covered with all necessary issues. Staff are very helpful.”

“At the west end of London lies the district of Hmmersmith. It is a small district but it has its own charm and tranquility afar from the bustling area of central London. The hotel is modern new and chic best suited for the family and if your on a budget. The staff are very friendly courteous and accomodating specially Victor who helped me with my questions and booking my tours around London. Free breakfast is plentiful and their packaged i cute paper bags. Only thing is the design of toilet and shower which were separate and a bit small. The hotel is 5 mins from Hammersmith station and many shops. All in all my experience is superb at this great hotel. I would recommend this and will definitely come back for more.”

“I know London inside out having lived there for ~20 years, and I would say this hotel is very well-located - just a very short walk from a tube station. (There are many hotels on the west side around South Kensington/Hyde Park, but really this is much more conveniently-located for Central London activities.) Another good thing about this hotel is the fact that, it is modern (many 3-4 stars hotels are have very dated decoration and facilities in London), clean and the staff are friendly and helpful. For the price I paid, this hotel is very outstanding.”

“The hotel is in an excellent location. It is very close to the Lamberth North tube station and buses. You can walk 10 minutes to the London Eye. Tesco Express and other convenience stores are close by. The room was very nice. The front-office staff was nice. The main problem is that the hotel is very noisy due to the vehicular traffic on the road in front of it. So you should request a quiet room not facing the traffic and on the highest floor possible. The hotel has a bunch of elevators. Another problem is that the cleaning lady can be stingy with the toiletry stuff and free water. We had 4 people. The cleaning lady did not provide enough toiletry stuff, and we had to ask for extra. The first day that we were there she put 4 free water bottles in the fridge. But the next several days she gave us only 2 water bottles. So we have to call every day to get 2 more water bottles. We paid a lot of money for the hotel. So they should not have been so stingy.”

“My friends and I enjoyed our stay. We really felt welcomed and liked the fact that this was the first hotel in london to have the 'qibla direction' (never seen in other hotels) for prayers. The rates are affordable and the location is very convenient.”

“lovely stay at the Z, great service by the staff during our trip last weekend. able to drop our bags off in the morning before check-in to go round london. free cheese and wine every night between 5-8pm which is always busy and a lovely atmosphere in a boutiquey hotel and dining area. the rooms are small which is expected for a building of its size but more than enough when your visiting london as your out throughout the day and evening. beds were good though. typical modern hotel glass bathroom/shower area but the sink area is small and awkward but good shower. full sky tv in the rooms too with all the channels which is great and free wifi which is added bonuses as most chain hotels charge for wifi and dont have full tv package. air con unit is locked and can only change the temp but our room didnt get cold for the temperature and windows cant be opened so was a bit warm but fine but maybe the unit needed a check/service. would definitely stay here again though as for the price and location and free extras its unbeatable and its only a couple mins walk from traf square so your saving money you would spend on a cheaper hotel further outer london needing to get tube/train into central london. great service by all the staff too!!”

“this really is one of the best hotels i have stayed in within london, for a long time! i really couldn't fault it! (and we stay in a lot of hotels worldwide!) from the minute we arrived, for the whole weekend, the staff were really friendly and helpful, they couldn't do enough for you (even offering free cheese and wine in the evening!) the room was fairly small (as you would expect in a boutique hotel in london), but was exceptionally comfortable with a huge bed and all mod cons. we loved the modern element of the glass walled shower room that's part of the whole room and the huge flatscreen tv with sky tv! bonus! it is also literally a minutes walk from victoria station and tube and london's museums and buckingham palace are just a short walk through beautiful belgravia... this really is a jewel in victoria's crown and we loved it and will definitely visit again! thank you!”

“it was well worth the money for a central hotel in london the staff where excellent and friedly,the service ,food,and very clean hotel. the only thing was it was a bit of a walk from the tube station at westminster but that was my choice to walk and not get a taxi (cheaper)”

“the hotel was newly renovated, all the rooms were furnished modern and the bathrooms were also very modern and clean. we were impressed by the value we received for such a good price. it's hard to find a hotel in london that is not oldish or run down. the staff was very friendly and helpful and always available. the gym was out of order, but that's ok. the location of the hotel was right next to a tube station, very convenient.”

“The Pilgrim is now my favourite hotel in London. It’s not only tastefully done but it’s clean, and has everything you need, with understated efficiency. There’s no fuss, no process, no uniforms, just fantastic service, comfort ,and decor . Everything was perfect.”

“Overall my stay exceeded expectations. Awesome location , the suite I booked was great for my friend and me for the three nights. The biggest call out is the staff - they were very friendly and extremely helpful. They allowed me to leave my bags for a few days while I travelled a bit of Europe, this was greatly appreciated! Thank you guys! The only down side was the check in - after 23hrs of travel and arriving at 8.30 am , the room being available, could not be prioritised for cleaning until 2pm! This i could not understand but that said the ladies at the reception were awesome and very understanding. Overall, I’ll definitely come back here and would recommend to my friends travelling to London to stay here.”

“Pros: Friendly staff. I came about 11AM and she tried to find the best solution to let me check in earlier. She understand we are tired due to Long flight. Staff at concierge was helpful as well. Location is the best. Buses just 3 mins walk away and it can go to Oxford street (390) and Piccadilly Circus (94). I took Big Bus for convenience and the bus stop is also 3 mins walk away (Bayswater). Sadly, when I was in London the nearest tube, Lancaster Gate station is undergoing construction. It is also 3 mins walk away. London Express/Connect stops at Paddington which is about 8 to 10 mins walk away. Cons: From the corridor to my room has a few steps (about 4 small stairs) which I was not aware and my mum has bad knees. But she said it is ok since it was a rather small stairs. But do take note! I am really satisfied with the hotel and I do not have any complaints. The room is just like most London hotels, small. So no complaints about it. Thanks Corus!”

“I have found my new favourite hotel in London, situated in the heart of the city, very close to all the fun places plus the underground. This hotel is clean, comfortable and beautiful. The staff were helpful and amazing. The room space is great which is very rare in London. Breakfast is the best i have ever had in London. I will definitely staff here again and recommend to all my friends and family”

“I had one of my best experiences of stay while in Double Tree Hilton, Victoria. Staffs were amazing and supportive. Room was a bit small but had good views and facilities. Except I didn't get in-house tea/coffee. Room/Bed/Desks were reasonably clean and house keeping were good. Location of the hotel is amazing for visiting London. Restaurants, any mode of transport, tourist places are all just minutes walk. Breakfast was reasonably good compared to other international chain hotels in London. Restaurant was also good. I am pleased with the staffs at reception, concierge service... #Thumbs Up. I would recommend any type of guests/visitors stay there.”

“We picked the hotel for its location, but it’s facilities and the service from the staff exceeded our expectations. We had a one bedroom two level apartment which gives a lot of privacy when travelling with children and a lot of space. Like a lot of London hotels the rooms are old but well maintained. Superb value for the space and location.”

“Rooms are clean and modern and though small, they are larger than many I viewed when trying to find a hotel in London. Well priced. I stayed in a building several buildings down from the main hotel. This is not uncommon in London. All rooms look pretty much the same and I found the uniformity comforting. Free cocktail of an evening in the main building though I was always out exploring this wonderful city and missed it but a nice touch. 10 min walk to Baker st station and a bus a few metres away, I found the location easy to get around. No phone in the room and it could use another power point next to the bed but such minor points really. Great stay and friendly staff.”

“Judging by the online reviews that I read before booking I expected the rooms to be of miniscule size and the breakfast to be mediocre at best. Neither was the case.The room was adequately sized for London hotels in this price range and also the continental breakfast had everything you would want to wish for. Good coffee, nice selection of fruit, cereals - no eggs though (extra charge). The location is excellent with only a 10 minutes walk to Victoria. Very convenient if you must go to Gatwick as there is no need to change trains on your way there. Some nice pubs close by. Very friendly staff. Perfect!”

“The amenities were amazing and the staff were great too.”

“Clean comfortable cosy room and tea and coffee in room.”

“If we go back to London, we will stay here again.”

“I think the location for the cost per night really is great.”

“The room and facilities are new and most importantly, clean.”

“The restaurant was pretty with decent breakfast selection.”

“The shower was very great and the bed was very comfortable.”

“Location of the hotel is like cherry on the cake.”

“Nice big spacious room, shop and room service food.”

“Stayed in a Quad room, which has been refurbished recently.”

“What really stood out, though, was the exceptional staff.”
