The hotel looks great on websites. The lobby looks fine, however the rooms are in a bad state of disrepair. The bathrooms are old and badly renovated, the paint chips and the tabs are bad. The floors are bad and the windows are really loud. Would not stay here again!

The hotel is on busy Cromwell road.single glazed windows meant we breathe traffic as if we were On the footpath. The room was right beside the kitchens and we could hear everything (when the traffic calmed). The whole place has the air of a hotel that has gone into liquidation and is been run on the cheap. The hot tap... More

Yet another fine example of a grossly overpriced London "hotel" regardless of the area. You'll probably find front desk staff who have long forgotten what a smile is and your presence an inconvenience. Over several days I saw them serving people with a complete lack of interest and enthusiasm.I don't reckon even a lotto win would get this mob to... More

The shower head poured water out like your standing under a bucket, we asked if this could be fixed but no, it couldn't. Our bottom sheet ripped from being so worn in between the two beds that are pushed together to make one enormous bed and it was not replaced. We had to use our towels to mop up the... More
