I absolutely fell in love with this hotel! The rooms were lovely, with lots of space for the two of us. They were the nicest rooms I've ever stayed in, immaculate and totally breathtaking. The price was just right for our chosen room. The service was incredible; the staff always made sure we were happy and comfortable. They called us taxis when required and were just generally lovely. The location was perfect for a little shopping, and parking was close by. As for dining, it was all fresh, not left to stew like lots of places, with excellent service and choice.

My stay at the hotel was fabulous! The rooms were spacious, clean, and full of amazing details, making it a great value for money. They were bright, super comfy, and had everything I needed.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were a good size and matched the expectations from the pictures, but the price of £490 per night wasn't truly justified. The service was top-notch with attentive and friendly staff, yet things got a bit chaotic when they got busy. The location was convenient with easy access to Piccadilly and nearby attractions, although the hotel reception could have been more helpful in addressing issues. The dining experience was disappointing, with missing items from breakfast. Despite the shortcomings, the hotel offered valuable services and amenities for the price paid.
