My deluxe double room was equipped with tea/coffee and a mobile. The view was incredibly beautiful here and the staff were best people who was n't at all interested and moaned about the length of her shift. The location was particularly good and very pretty - easy walk to everywhere I wanted to go.

Extremely convenient and reasonably priced place, nice food offered for full English breakfast. Well-appointed and extremely pleasant units and very informative staff who went the extra mile to deliver an excellent service. A bath in the bathroom. Magnificent location of the hotel, not far from the museum and train station, all main attractions, and The Natural History Museum & the V&A Gallery. Also, close to underground🙂

We only stayed here for 5 nights, as we didn't have time, yet everything was really good. The location of the hotel was peaceful - relatively near a scientifically spellbinding museum. Close to a museum and a college, it was a bonus.
