Poor value for money. This is a very nice building located in a beautiful area of Westminster. Unfortunately, the hotel lets the building down. Terrible check-in process, getting people to sign in on tablets on their own. Slowed the whole process down, don’t you employ staff to do that? Our room was terrible, not what we asked for. We had to be moved for a second night. In fairness they accommodated that well, but the so-called family room is a joke. Just a single room with two double beds crammed in. Air-conditioning didn’t work so we were four people crammed in a tiny room - we couldn’t sleep all night with the heat and air quality. Plugs in the sinks didn’t work. Room service was poor and under prepared. I like being in a super eight in Wisconsin. For what we paid this place was completely under value I was expecting a really high-end quaint hotel value. Westminster. We got a lovely building, but not much else. I’d love to say there are better options in the area, but everything is a rip off in downtown London. But get ripped off somewhere else. This place is worth your money.

Beautiful and clean hotel though could use a microwave and a bigger fridge in the room. All hotels in UK turn of AC at night which was a bummer but the weather wasnt too bad so was bearable. There is no free breakfast or parking at this hotel It is in walking distance of Victoria station, Westminster abbey and buckingham palace. Train, tubes and buses were easily available near the location

Excellent location but could be improved.

Excellent location for visiting Buckingham Palace and Changing of the Guard ceremony. Carpet didn’t look like it was clean after requesting room cleaning each day. Room service was slow and staff forgot orders by telephone. The desk and chair were uncomfortable because the desk was high and the chair was low. Probably suitable for someone of at least 6 foot tall. I’m 5ft 6 so too short. Definitely would recommend to friends for location but not service.

The location is wonderful, an attractive property minutes walk from Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey and the Thames. My only complaint was going to our room A-2, there were first 12 stairs into the lobby from the street and unfortunately, another 15 or so to our lower-level room, which was extraordinarily difficult for us in being in our mid-seventies traveling with 2 grandkids with luggage and no elevator or bell man for assistance. One clerk offered help with our big bag. I wish we'd been warned of our room's terrible location, but we were on our way down with our bags and faced 3 sets of stairs and it was too late to request another room without having to move the luggage again ourselves.

To start and for the first couple of days, the air conditioning wasn’t working. I specifically went to this hotel because it offered consistent air conditioning and I was disappointed when that failed. The hotel moved me to another room and that made all the difference. I must pose the question as to why they made me suffer thru 2 days (of often dead warm air) until midnight at the end of the second day of my stay. And I was reprimanded and told I couldn’t eat or drink any outside food in their garden area and that “guests must consume outside items in their rooms.” What? I consider the air conditioning hold out and the “eat in your room” comment to approach the level of hospitality I might receive at a 1-Star or 2-Star hotel… not a 4-Star Blue Orchid. I will admit that the second half of my 8 days/nights at Wellington Blue Orchid were much nicer than the first half… and I’ll also say that the front desk personnel and other staff I encountered were very professional … except of course for the manager that sent that messenger to say I’m not welcome in their garden… that was simply rude!
