Royal Garden Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Location, Clean, staff were great, and the breakfast was excellent. This is my 5 time in this hotel, and never failed once. I will stay there whenever I go to London. "

The Rembrandt

10/10 Excellent

"Room clean. Bed and bedding good. Bathroom clean and updated. Nespresso machine with pods, tea and kettle. Air con bit noisy but seemed to work. Nice bath robes and decent towels. Location ideal for museums. Paid for upgrade to room and it was modern and nice. Worth £40? Can’t say as I didn’t see the Grand King to compare. Breakfast was ok, not brilliant. Staff all good. Disappointing you have to pay a lot for a swim! Only negative is the stupid shower head - if you turn it on, you get soaked with cold water and rainfall showers are no good for a shower without hair washing."

Millennium Hotel and Conference Centre Gloucester London

10/10 Excellent

"Check in was very easy and quick.. a shout out to Abni who was very courteous and helpful. Room was very clean( windows could do with a clean) and the bed was very comfy. Room had tea/coffee facilities with an iron, safe and mini fridge ( which made a little noise!) . Breakfast was very good with a good choice. The hotel is very convenient to public transport and shopping "
