Peaceful stay

8.0

Very quiet & personal. Staff all lovely. Handy location. Lovely upgrade. Bed comfy and room very clean.

− No-one knew whether breakfast was included or not. Finally, all charges were removed which was great but it added stress to the stay. The tables in the dining room were always left dirty from previous guests (breakfast).

Location was wonderful. Buckingham Palace literally around the corner.

− Room was smaller than we anticipated as we had lots of luggage and ours didn’t fit in the drawers under the bed.

Boutique, and super comfortable stay!

Well appointed and super comfortable room, sound proof with no traffic disturbance given the room was front facing. Pleasant staff (Caleb and Mahmud), facilitated a smooth early check in.
