Great location for shopping and walkable (20-30 min) to many of the typical tourist sights. On a quiet street. Staff were very friendly. Our room and bathroom were quite compact and we had no view but was okay for a 2 night stay. The main downside was our low pressure toilet- maybe a consequence of being on the second floor. When we stayed there a number of years ago on the 11th floor, the room was larger, we had a fabulous view and no water pressure issues. Clearly we had booked a higher end room that time!

Disappointed
First off the location is great! The service is good. The rooms were below the standard of our other stays in London and Edinburgh. The bathrooms are older style where you have to step over into tub. The tub has a tall side and is not easy for older guests. The shower itself is not easy to use. Sink did not have hot water. Based on “green initiatives” you have to request basic amenities that you just have in your room at other hotels at this level. It makes you feel guilty to have to request things you feel like you have paid for.

Dont upgrade. The "best" rooms are on the 15th floor, but they neglect to tell you the elevator only goes to 14. You have to leave the elevator, pass through several fire doors, to climb a flight of stairs to your room. With a kid and a stroller this is gets old very quickly. The bathroom was the best part of the room. The bed was firm. The pillows last about five minutes before deflating. We tried ordering room service the first night due to jet lag. The room menu indicated several option for dining between midnight and 6am. When we called, the staff sounded like we were being outrageous. They only could do a burger. It was not worth it.

Friendly and helpful reception staff however for a 4 star hotel this seemed dated, small rooms and breakfast wasn’t worth £25 pp. breakfast was cold, coffee awful and not as nice as other hotels we’ve stayed at before in the same area. The breakfast staff seemed new or just simply didn’t know how to operate. I would class this as cheap and cheerful if you get the hotel at a good price but it’s certainly NOT worthy of the full price being asked for at this hotel.
