Quartiere elegantissimo, l'albergo non è all'altezza del quartiere, ma è carino e ha delle stanze grandi con il bagno piccolino. C'è la solita moquette di dubbia pulizia (ma questo vale per qualsiasi moquette) la colazione è ottima. La metro è a 10 minuti a piedi.

London is always very expensive, but considering room and hotel surroundings (one of the best areas in London), this hotel is a good choice. Breakfast is very good. Hotel entrance and the lift are the worst part, but everything else more than compensates for it.

Very helpful staff, excellent room, good breakfast,let down by lack of hot water!. Fixed for our second night but had to use the bath as shower was still cold. Otherwise would recommend @ £125/room/night.
