Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers super cozy rooms with small details like USB plugs, well-designed for short or long stays, but can be too warm due to non-adjustable air conditioning. Great value for money overall, despite some noise issues from keeping balcony doors open at night.
The hotel is conveniently located near key attractions and public transport, offering a quiet and comfortable stay. The service was friendly and helpful, while the dining experience could be expanded with more variety. The facilities provided a decent experience, though some areas could be improved.
The hotel offers clean and functional rooms, with some thoughtful features but lacks bedside tables. The service is a mix of occasionally rude encounters and helpful, friendly staff. Its location suits specific needs but may not be ideal for a central London experience. The on-site dining experience is lacking but can be complemented by nearby options. Facilities are decent overall.
The hotel rooms, with a queen-size bed, air-conditioning, a kitchenette, and a modern bathroom, were very comfortable, offering great value for money compared to other London stays. The service was efficient and very helpful, making for an enjoyable stay, despite some cold interactions. The location is perfect, with easy access to Barbican station, though the noise from nearby activities was a drawback. The dining experience, while tasty, was slow, and the facilities met expectations.
The hotel is in a good location near a tube station and St Paul's, offering clean, modern rooms with a kitchenette for convenience. The staff is friendly but could improve on providing more information upon arrival. The dining options are limited, but the attached deli/coffee shop is nice. The venue caters primarily to business guests, with easy access to transit hubs, but noise from opposite University halls can be bothersome.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were decent in size and some came with a small kitchenette, which was convenient. However, the noise from the bell outside was quite bothersome early in the morning. On the plus side, it was a comfortable place for my grandma to babysit until the late night wedding party finished.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The apartment room was comfortable, clean, and very quiet, ensuring a restful night's sleep. The staff was considerate, helpful, and polite, making check-in organized and seamless. The location was brilliant, central to everything I needed, and it was easy to find. The dining experience was unique, with traditional local products offered. Overall, a great value for the price.
Although there was a mix-up with our room, the hotel provides a quiet sanctuary on a busy street with great beds and thoughtful amenities. The well-designed rooms cater to short or long stays, offering comfort and cleanliness. Service had its hiccups but was accommodating when needed. The location is convenient for exploring with easy access to dining options. Dining is a unique experience tied to a cafe discount. Overall, a comfortable stay with minor inconveniences.
The hotel is cute and cozy, making me feel very comfortable from the get-go in the bedroom of the apartment. Shopping for food/drink is within 5 minutes along with great restaurants. The location is central to visit, although not in a particularly animated neighborhood. Slow reception at peak times due to the number of people booking in/out is a drawback. Costing 17 pounds, the dining experience in the restaurant didn't quite meet my expectations.
