This hotel gets 4 stars for the location. The hotel itself is fine, but the location is fantastic. You are steps from Trafalgar Square, Picadilly Circus, theatres, shopping and all the transportation options. The hotel is directly behind the National Gallery. It could use some updating. it is clean and the rooms are a decent size for London. The breakfast buffet is good if a little boring. The beds are comfortable and the staff is willing. This is my second stay here. I recommend it highly. Just remember, it is not the Ritz. It is not badly priced and they do have specials.

THIS SHOULD NOT BE CLASSED AS A 4 STAR! Stayed here for 2 days and was well cheesed off. First of all i booked a double Jnr suit, when i arrived at the room you couldn't swing a cat in it and had single beds.(not good when you are celebrating you 21st wedding aniv). They got us another room bit bigger. I then tried to have a bath i would have had to run it at least an hour before as the watter was so slow running. after 5 mins got fed up and changed my mind and thought a shower would be better.The watter wouldnt run away and to my horror found the reason why. the plug hole was full of thick black hair, and since am blonde i knew they didnt come from me.
