Lovely London Hotel

Food quality hotel with friendly staff. Excellent location close to the tube, shop, and quick casual restaurants. A little street noise and some banging doors at all hours, but a good choice overall.

Tired rooms need update

The hotel is well situated and the public spaces are fine. The room though was noisy (overlooking a main road). Surfaces were sticky (a desk with deteriorating varnish), there was dirty water in bath which didn’t drain well, no toilet brush and no sockets near the bed. Against this, the breakfast was good and the bed very comfortable.
Carolyne, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Fantastic Hotel
Elizabeth, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Friendly but overpriced for tiny room

Friendly reception & elegant premises. Extremely expensive for a tiny single room, with some features literally falling off. Exasperating muddle at breakfast second morning about whether it had been pre-paid. Other Radisson Blu hotels do better and offer better value for money.
