    Average rating: Hotel Swissôtel London - The Howard London - Venere.com 8.7
    Guest type: Single traveller
    stayed in Oct 2007
    There was a very warm welcoming and also polite and competent staff at the reception and in the restaurant too. The food in the restaurant (dinner and breakfast) was also excellent and in a nice, quiet atmosphere. Except a young lady when checking out (initals EP) was very inpolite and nervous.

    Excellent choice: beautiful river view, underground across the street, large room, all new, everything working. Missing a little bit of charme, though. One remark: internet connection (wireless) is expensive and inadequate in pricing strategy: 15£ per day from 12pm to 12 pm, meaning that if you need to check your mail at 8 am before leaving the room, that excercise will cost about 23 €; also cumbersome, as you have to call reception to have the connection open.
