Bathroom and closet were too small. "Living Room" was lovely. Great coffee. Liked the hall closet of things travelers may need. Overall, a nice stay, albeit a bit tight. Would’ve been more comfortable with a larger space.

Great location, but it’s not the only hotel there. Property needs a serious makeover, it feels outdated. Nobody to help you with the luggage when you get out of your cab. No doorman. No ramp, you have to carry your luggage up the front steps. There is a lift in front for handicap access, but it’s locked and no one visible to assist. What are you supposed to do? Leave your luggage unattended in the street and go inside to the lobby to ask for help???

This hotel was the perfect location for us. The beds and pillows were super comfy. We loved the ice and filtered water stations on the floor, with reusable bottles. We would definitely stay here again!

True to its name - Grand in every way. Perfect location in the heart of London with extremely friendly and courteous staff that went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. Had opted for a twin room which was very spacious and clean with cozy beds. Much needed air conditioning worked fine in the middle of the heat wave in London. Will certainly consider returning back to this hotel during further trip to London and very highly recommend to any traveler visiting London.

Fantastic location. Great service.

Had a great stay at the Grand. Absolutely fantastic location at Trafalgar Square.Convenient to all major tourist sites in central London! Room decor was a little dated but very clean. Staff was great. The chilled water dispenser with free refillable bottles on each floor was very convenient.

Check in was easy and the staff was friendly. They held our bags for us while the room was being prepared so we could go out and enjoy the town. The room air conditioning did not blow as cool as we would have liked, making the room a little stuffy in summer. Would have preferred to have the room made up every day but that was not offered. We felt the price of breakfast was too spendy, so we just ate at local restaurants close by. It was a very walkable area and close to the underground which made getting around easy.
