Following a week Paris and visiting with family outside of London, my husband and I decided at the last minute to go into London for the remaining 3 nights of a 2 week holiday. We booked on a last minute name your own price website and were incredibly pleased with our luck! The price paid was less than half the advertised rate and was incredible for this 5 star hotel! The staff couldn't do enough for us, even though the hotel was completely full. The beds were terribly comfy, rooms very large, everything top notch. However, being a 5 star hotel in London, everything on site was VERY expensive. In-room wi-fi was 25 pounds per day, one cocktail and one tonic water at the bar was nearly 60 USD and the price for room service "full English" breakfast, 25 pounds!! Nearly 60 USD PP!!!!! Thankfully, the concierge happily pointed us toward a tiny cafe only a few steps from the hotel's entrance that had a delicious full English, as well as snacks and sammies for lunch, only 6 pounds for breakfast...full of taxi drivers and construction workers, it was the "real" London!
The hotel is just across from a tube station as well as the park and Marble Arch. For tourists, one of the double decker bus tours stops just in front of the hotel, very convenient!
With the location, convenience and luxury, will certainly stay here again.
