    Recommend it for families with kids

    The staff were incredibly helpful and made sure my son felt like a VIP which made him really happy and the room was spacious enough for us to move around without feeling cramped

    It wasn't exactly cheap but still reasonable for what we got

    The location is excellent, making it easy to explore nearby attractions.

    good wifi
    spacious rooms
    limited breakfast options

    Had a great time with friends exploring nearby attractions like Hyde Park and catching a concert at Wembley Stadium. The location was perfect, just a short walk from the subway. The rooms were spacious enough for us, and there was good wifi throughout. The staff were friendly and helpful.

    The breakfast options were pretty limited. We found the continental selection lacking and often chose to grab food from nearby shops instead.
