Just right for an evening at the opera.

The location of this hotel is perfect for Covent garden. The hotel itself has a tired look to it and could do with some upkeep. The room was large and clean, and everything worked well. I found it odd that week could not get a snack after 11pm in the bar, having arrived at the hotel rather late. We will return when we next come to see an opera at Covent garden.

Traveler's tip on local attractions

Check on opening times. We were surprised that the Cortaulds museum was closed when we went to see it on a Saturday.

Would definitely stay there again!

Excellent location. Hotel staff very extremely helpful and efficient. Included breakfast was adequate but not worth the price. Our room was one of the updated rooms with ultra modern features and decorating. Unfortunately it was not very well lit for any reading and not very comfortable for lounging (other than sleeping), but we spent most of our time out of the room.

charming hotel in covent gardens

The loction of this hotel is wonderful. It is walking disance to all the sites and a couple blocks from the tube. The included breakfast was amazing - it was as if you were having breakfast in a grand ballroom, with a frendly wait staff and freshly prepared food. Finally, the concierge and 24 hour staff provided a feeling of safety and assurance in an unfamiliar town.

Traveler's tip on nightlife

For creative drinks at a low-key spot, check out a bar named Lab. I’m from Miami (not a bar shy area) and I’ve never seen such an inpressive drink menu!
