Staff was lovely and helpful. They allowed me to check in a bit early, which was particularly kind as I found myself suddenly without a place to stay for the night. Room was clean and had everything I needed.

The hotel facilities were very good, and I was satisfied with my stay. The two gentlemen at the reception were extremely helpful and friendly throughout my visit. I would especially like to thank Mr. Loay for his kindness and support.

Upon arrival, the receptionist was very polite and it was so quick to check in. The room was ideal for a solo traveller staying for one night. The room, wardrobe and shower room / toilet was all very clean with no complaints. The location was exceptional being such a short walk to Hyde park, Harrods, public transport

The location is excellent, though a little far from a tube station. The staff were all extremely friendly and the rooms were nice, though the bathroom was quite small. Great shower though, so no real complaints there. We had breakfast one day and it was really good. Only cons would be 1) the room got a little hot with only a ceiling fan to try and help and 2) not the cleanest -- though not offputting either, just a bit of dust etc. We liked it and would book again.

No tea bags, and no one to ask for any (even more reason to make sure everything in the room is in order if they operate with minimal staff).
