Could have asked for a better staff

Hotel staff was amazing in helping us find all the sites, and all events can be booked for you anytime right in the lobby. we had some issues with some booked items and they got everything straightened out for us while we were touring london it was great. i would recommend getting a newly refurbished room though... ours wasn’t and the bed was very hard but still worth the view. Hotel is kind of far from everything, but a tube station is a block away. you do get private bathrooms in this hotel.. lots of london hotels have comunity ones. there is no free breakfast and the one they have is very expensive...(about $30USD a person) whole area is very well light, so you feel very safe walking around at night. loved it will stay there if i go to london again. i do recommend the day in paris... much cheaper than going there.

Traveler's tip on nightlife

not a whole lot of clubs close.. you will have to take a cab or a tube to get by any good ones. beer and wine are cheap, cocktails are are stupid expensive. (about 15USD for a small glass)

VFM

Friendly staff in lobby. Cafeteria service efficient although choice of food limited. Generally some improvement in conditons within hotel & service.Rooms represent value for money in this location.
