Nice clean, large room. Recently modernised although still with the shower in the bath tub. Room was quiet enough during the day and for most of the night. Unfortunately it was located over the delivery entrance for the hotel so was noisy from 6am. Very welcoming and friendly staff.

This is a great hotel close to a few restaurants and Buckingham Palace. We especially enjoyed Sofra around the corner. There is a mini mart on a side street and an M&S close by. Very nice staff. Great walkable park right across the street.
