The staff was so friendly and helpful during every interaction. The location of the hotel is convenient for getting on the tube and site seeing London. The room was clean and bright. We greatly enjoyed our stay there.
The room was clean, the shower was great, the bed was firm but super comfortable, and the staff were very friendly. It is a good hotel in a great location.
Great location on the central line which was so convenient. Staff were very friendly and helpful and we had a really good stay. Room was a good size and clean and great to have a little Waitrose downstairs for supplies
We stayed in the family suite with 2 young kids after a long travel day. It was very spacious and overlooked the park. Easy onsite parking and the breakfast was perfect the next morning.
