The room was clean and well-maintained, which gave me peace of mind during my short stay. Facilities were basic but functional—nothing fancy, but everything worked as expected. The only downside was the service: I didn’t receive water upon arrival on day two, so I had to buy one from outside. A small oversight, but it would’ve been nice if it had been proactively offered. Still, considering the central location, cleanliness, and value for money, this hotel is definitely worth recommending for travelers who prioritize convenience and proximity to the city center.

That’s actually a student residence, which adds a unique touch to the area. Clean, well-maintained, and quietly situated in a vibrant part of town. Highly recommend for travelers who want convenience without the noise. A truly memorable stay!
54 Queen's Gate Hotel
We arrived early to drop off our luggage and were pleasantly surprised when the hotel allowed us to check in ahead of schedule—what a great touch! The only minor issue was a faint lingering scent in the bathroom, likely from recent use, but it cleared up quickly after airing out. We also noticed an open bottle of water in the bathroom, though there wasn’t any drinking water provided in the room itself. Still, the hotel smelled fresh and well-maintained, with a luxurious feel throughout. Located in a prime, upscale area near Queen’s Gate, it’s perfectly positioned for exploring London’s best attractions. Clean, convenient, and full of charm—this place truly delivers on comfort and location. I’d definitely stay here again.
