Needs a freshen up… rooms are tired. No batteries in TV remote, wi fi doesn’t work at night. Bathroom door sticks Woken by housekeeping at 08.20 asking when we were checking out! Feels impersonal, breakfast is reminiscent of a school canteen!

The staff was really nice and helpfull, it's a big and busy hotel, elevators are quit small, so sometimes it's hard to get to the room. Breakfast was ok, enough choice, but not really delicious, good neighborhood, easy to get around.

Room looked like it hadn’t been refreshed in 20+ years, the TV was hanging off the wall and the bath was all cracked and showing the unfinished material underneath, people where up and down the hallway all night shouting and took 20+ minutes to check in. could have been so much better. tried to treat my girlfriend to a nice weekend in london but ended up being dissapointing for both of us and i feel to blame for it.

Easily the worst, run down dirty kip of a hotel I have ever stayed in. Breakfast was terrible, ate out both mornings instead. Room looks like something out of the horror movie Hostel. I would highly recommend nobody stays here: This was booked for me by work. The place hasn’t been done up in a long time, I’ve seen prisons with more charm. AVOID/AVOID/AVOID. If I could give it minus stars I would. Hotels.com should take it off their website.
