A building with a brick facade, a wooden front door, and a balcony with black railings.

The Egerton House Hotel

London City Centre

10/10 Excellent

Great small hotel: of similar quality but better location than the Blake's Hotel (which is also one of my favorite small hotels in London). The bar, room service, food are top notch. The rooms are dream-like English warmth, with spotless beautiful bathrooms. This hotel has traditional decoration, it is not for the modern-seeking customer. Staff is too notch: helpful, knowledgeable, available at all hours even for a small hotel. Internet was adequate for downloading movies/clips, but I...

A historic building with ornate architecture, large windows, and a prominent entrance.

The Milestone Hotel

Lorraine

A green sofa with a mirror and a framed picture on the wall.

Cheval Knightsbridge

London City Centre

10/10 Excellent

The young staff at the desk were very polite, professional, and engaging. The flat was clean and offered all one would need for quick prep of food. The location is very good, especially if you enjoy the many museum in the area. It was a perfect location for us! The location of our particular flat was in a small side col-de-sac off of Brompton street. Not much of a view from the terrace, but the quiet it provides for sleeping is priceless!!! I recommend it! My only complaint was upon check-out....

Toni

A grand hallway with a checkered floor, flanked by tall wooden paneling and two leather armchairs with cushions.

Hotel 41

London City Centre

10/10 Excellent

We had an absolutely wonderful one-night stay at 41. We felt pampered from the minute that we entered 41. Extremely impressed with the whole experience. The entire staff at this hotel are extremely warm and friendly – genuinely so, and not just putting on a show. You are greeted by name by all the staff, and I was amazed that they all remembered details of our conversations, and would ask how we enjoyed the activities or meals that we experienced during our stay. We were offered a glass of...

Kim

A restaurant with outdoor seating, tables, chairs, and a waiter.

The Goring

London City Centre

10/10 Excellent

If you appreciate high quality and superb traditional decorating and furnishings, this is the place to be. I prefer it to Claridge's. The greeting upon arrival is surely a singular experience. The doorman memorized our name and addressed us thus during our stay. The receptionists and concierge staff greeted us in a palatial reception room where we were provided with tea and biscuits. Our room was elegant and comfortable; somewhat small, however we chose the least costly accommodation and...

James

A modern outdoor seating area with a sofa and coffee table, surrounded by decorative plants and a view of a historic building with flags.

The Lanesborough, Oetker Hotels

London City Centre

10/10 Excellent

An absolutely beautiful city hotel with lovely rooms and outstanding service and amenities. The most comfortable bed ANYWHERE I've stayed in Europe -- and a beautiful, quiet room in spite of the central location -- such a relief! Delicious food, fun bar downstairs, wonderful service and recommendations, terrific concierge. Everything was even better than expected, and I'm a tough critic. There was a misunderstanding about our reservation, and they went absolutely above and beyond to ensure that...

Cornelia

A restaurant with round tables and chairs, large windows with a view of a cityscape and sunset, and a glass ceiling structure.

Vintry & Mercer Hotel - Small Luxury Hotels of the World

London City Centre

10/10 Excellent

Supreme boutique hotel with vibe that is fire! Excellent kitchen. Helpful and friendly staff. Room was clean, comfortable and with high quality rain shower. Down the street from Mansion House (underground) station and directly on the District and Circle lines. Walkable to Tower of London, Tower Bridge and St. Peter’s. It is four tube stops away from House of Parliament and Westminster Abbey. All else accessible easily by public transit. I cannot wait to stay for longer and with family at an...

Loved this hotel, the design is spectacular and the location fantastic. Suites are beautifully decorated but small. Toiletries in bathrooms bare minimum. Forgot my toothbrush and took 20 mins and 2 calls to get one. Rooftop bar is awesome but closing the terrace at 10pm (probably neighborhood restrictions) is not great. Staff at rooftop bar was a bit rude. Overall a great hotel to stay at although SoHo Hotel and Hazlitt are my two other favorites in SoHo

André

A rooftop terrace with a view of the city skyline, including a Ferris wheel, and furnished with outdoor seating and tables.

Raffles London at The OWO

10/10 Excellent

If perfection in the world of hospitality was possible to achieve, The Raffles OWO, has done it. This property is the exact definition of luxury at every point, a flawless master class in hospitality under any circumstances. I could tell you in this review about the stunning architectural Jewel that houses this luxury hotel. Im sure any future guest would love to read about the magnificent spa, possibly one of the best in Europe, if not the world. You might be inclined to learn that the...
