I stayed at the thistle for a few days during a trip in June. The hotel is centrally located, with a grocery and coffee shops nearby; just a couple of minutes walk from the main area, where the tube is easily accessible and surrounded by numerous dining options, oxford street and hyde park.
My room was a great for a solo traveler and well-appointed. The bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring restful nights. The bathroom was clean and had hot water running at all times. The only downside is, you will have to bring your own toiletries as there is none available in the room.
The staff (Rahul and Ali) were attentive and courteous. Check-in was smooth, and they provided helpful recommendations and directions when needed. They were understanding and helped with storing luggage during check ins and out!
Overall, I had a pleasant stay and would recommend this hotel for both business and leisure travelers seeking comfort and convenience.
