Convenient stopover hotel.
Nice place at a good price for central London. Comfortable bed, within a rather dated room - but nothing to adversely affect the stay.

Location was excellent but overall it was less than advertised. It is tired and in need of even a minor makeover. Carpets are old and stained and needs painting to bring it up to standards. Room cleaning staff was great.

Small cute Regency era converted house on border of Mayfair and Marylebone. Walkable to Marble Arch. Small breakfast room buffet and hot options. Nice lounge no bar but nice pub a few doors away. New Quebec Street round the corner, and Nobu Hotel worth visiting. Don’t expect large chain hotel. Great value

Small cute Regency House. Breakfast room, lounge. There isn’t a bar but few yards from pub on the corner and can recommend New Quebec Street round the corner. Twin room, which are get harder to find in London. It’s a converted house so don’t expect large chain accommodation. It’s located edge of Mayfair and Marylebone and walking distance to Marble Arch.

Street noise was disturbing during sleeping hours; breakfast room was intolerably warm. Otherwise we loved the walking distance to Oxford St, dining establishments, palace, parks, & theatre district (for those more ambitious walkers). Rooms are clean & big; bathrooms well stocked. Staff are polite & helpful.

The bathroom wasn’t very clean and smelled like mold. Housekeeping wouldn’t come until very late in the day. I checked out a few days ago and they still haven’t charged me and the staff isn’t very helpful trying to figure out why. The location was nice and the room was big.
