Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and comfy, but not being able to adjust the heating was a downside. The central location was convenient, although the property needs refurbishment. The dining options were limited, featuring mainly cold dishes.

The hotel offers a central location, close to almost everything in a walking distance. The rooms vary from shared bathrooms to en suite toilets, providing different options. Although the heating cannot be adjusted, the overall stay was pleasant and convenient. The home-baked Alentejo bread was a delightful dining touch. A decent value for money choice.

I had a nice stay at this hotel located in the center of London. The rooms were comfortable, but not having the option to change the heating was a downside. The service was pleasant, and the location was very convenient, being close to the city center. However, the dining experience was a bit lacking in variety. The facilities were decent but could use some improvements.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location was perfect, right in the heart of London, and close to the Tube. The room was spacious and modern, with a luxurious en suite bathroom. The service was top-notch, and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. However, the dining options were a bit limited, and the price was slightly on the higher side. Overall, a fantastic experience!
