The hotel is one block from Hyde Park, less than two blocks from the Central and Circle Tube lines and close to many dining options.
I was given a room on the 8th floor and the lift went only to the 7th floor. When I requested to be given a room on a lower floor, the front desk clerk, Marat, was unwilling to fulfill the move. The A/C was not working properly and the thermostat was set to only 19° to 22° Celsius. That and being on the top floor made the room uncomfortable. I was provided with a floor fan. Also, the rooms were not spacious, very cramped.
The hotel’s decor was a plus, beautiful wood finishing and a grand staircase going to the 2nd and 3rd floors.
