This property is an excellent price point which is due to it being out of central London. But there are transport links directly outside the hotel that allows you to be within central London in 20minutes. Comfortable sleep and spacious modern rooms.

What a surprisingly special stay!

We selected the hotel as it was near to where we would be working, but it was an unexpected surprise as we absolutely loved it. The location, room, food and service were all fab, and would highly recommend it. We can't wait to come back again!

This is not a 5 star hotel as advertised, 4 star at best. Hotel looks tired. Staff friendly and room decent size but lacked quality I would expect from 5 star hotel. Notes everywhere about no smoking and had to sign a disclaimer! Only provide 2 bottles of the room and yet another note to say any others would be chargeable. This is not a hotel I would recommend and I wouldn’t stay again.

Not a five star

The hotel states it is convenient which it definitely is not. The bed was awful and there were helicopters landing on heliport about 100M away all night. No lounge and no proper bar area.
