Poor catering and hopeless service
Thankful to have left this shoddy hotel at last!
1) Extremely limited restaurant menu - if you don't like fish then hard luck. As a result I was forced to resort to room service for the rest of my week's stay as the listed room service menu is far more extensive!
2) Breakfast: While the food is good and plentiful, don't bother ordering hot food if you're in a hurry - even at quiet times it takes forever to arrive.

Clean Hotel Perfect Location
My husband and I stayed for a weekend in Feb. 07. On arrival, the hotel staff were all very pleasant. The room was very clean and comfortable. The bathroom was a little outdated but also clean. We had the full English breakfast, which was included in the price. This was excellent with plenty to choose from. My husband and I will deff go back there again. Prime location for many of the shows. Just 10min walk to Covent gardens. Good location for bars and places to dine.
