DoubleTree by Hilton London Angel Kings Cross
Staying at this hotel was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. The staff went above and beyond with their warm, genuine hospitality—feeling welcomed right away. The room was immaculate, spotlessly clean, and well-appointed with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. I especially appreciated the on-site fitness center, which made it easy to stay active even while traveling. We opted for breakfast, and it was fantastic—wide variety, fresh ingredients, and something for every taste, from traditional English fare to international options. Location-wise, it couldn’t be better: just a 10-minute walk to King’s Cross station, with multiple Tube lines connecting throughout London. Plus, being directly next to both King’s Cross and St. Pancras mainline stations makes getting around the city or heading out to destinations across the UK incredibly convenient. Whether you're here for business or leisure, this hotel delivers top-tier comfort, service, and accessibility—all in one unbeatable package.
DoubleTree by Hilton London Victoria
Staying at the DoubleTree by Hilton London Victoria was an absolutely delightful experience. The staff went above and beyond with their warm hospitality—greeted us with smiles and even offered a little welcome gift, which added a nice personal touch. Breakfast was fresh, varied, and delicious, so I’d definitely recommend booking it with your room for better value. Our room on the 9th floor had a fantastic view from the window—perfect for watching the city come alive during the day and enjoy the evening lights. The location is unbeatable: just a short walk to the train station and underground access, making it super easy to explore various attractions across London. Whether you're here for business or leisure, this hotel truly delivers on comfort, convenience, and charm.
DoubleTree by Hilton London – West End
The location is absolutely unbeatable—just a short walk from my office and even closer to the British Museum, which saved me so much time on commuting. Despite being in one of London’s most expensive areas, the room was surprisingly spacious and well-maintained, with modern amenities and a comfortable bed. It’s rare to find such a convenient and pleasant stay at this price point. I’ll definitely be booking here again for my next business trip—it’s a top choice for both convenience and comfort.
DoubleTree by Hilton London - Marble Arch
The stay was excellent overall, and my companion was very happy with the experience. The location is fantastic—just a short walk from public transit and close to major attractions. The room was clean, spacious, and well-appointed, with a comfortable bed and modern amenities. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout our visit. The only minor downside was the £25 fee for early check-in, which felt a bit steep but understandable given the demand. Still, it didn’t take away from the great value we received. I’d definitely recommend this hotel and would stay here again on future trips to London.
Hotel 41
Staying at Hotel 41 felt like stepping into a well-kept secret from a bygone era. In an age where many hotels seem to have given up on quality service, it’s genuinely refreshing to find one that still upholds high standards with such dedication. I visited during the quiet March season—my first time experiencing this historic gem from the Red Carnation group. Hotel 41 and its neighboring property, Rubens, are part of the same family, and both are warmly greeted by the same elderly doorman who adds a personal touch right from arrival. From the moment you step inside, the attention to detail is palpable. Our Korean housekeeper was incredibly sweet and enthusiastic—her warmth made the stay feel more like visiting friends than checking into a hotel. As a boutique property, the entire hotel spans just one floor, with the public area doubling as the lobby and lounge bar—an elegant blend of old-world charm and timeless style. Welcome champagne, non-stop snacks throughout the day (candy, ice cream, hot and cold bites), afternoon tea, and late-night nibbles make the experience even more luxurious. The signature treat? Chocolate shortbread—simple but unforgettable. That said, standard rooms are quite small; fitting two adults and two large suitcases left little room to move around. Bathrooms feel dated in design and fixtures, though they’re clean and functional. One delightful touch: the nightly turndown includes a cozy hot water bottle tucked under the sheets—a small gesture that truly warms the soul. You can ask almost anything of your housekeeper—they’ll help with luggage packing, local tips, or even last-minute requests. The location is unbeatable: directly opposite Buckingham Palace stables. Walking to the palace, Big Ben, and Westminster Abbey felt effortless—more like a leisurely stroll than a tourist rush. For a unique, intimate, and deeply personal stay in central London, Hotel 41 delivers exceptional value and genuine hospitality.
Radisson Blu Hotel, London Tottenham Court Road (formely Kenilworth)
I stayed in a single room which was compact but perfectly functional with all the essentials. The breakfast was exceptional—plenty of options, fresh ingredients, and high quality across the board. I especially appreciated the little touches in the lobby: lemon tea, apples, and Walkers crisps available for guests to enjoy anytime. It's these thoughtful details that make a big difference. Overall, the experience was excellent, and I'd definitely book again. Highly recommend staying here if you're in London.
Wilde Aparthotels London Paddington
Staying in a lower-floor room was surprisingly quiet—no noise at all despite the city location. The room size is just right, not too cramped and very clean throughout. I especially appreciated having a small kitchenette and dining area, which made it easy to prepare simple meals during my stay. The staff were warm and helpful, always ready to assist with any questions. This place offers great value and comfort, and if I ever return to London, I’d definitely book here again. A fantastic choice for travelers who want a home-like atmosphere with excellent service.
Cheval Harrington Court at South Kensington
Staying at Cheval Harrington Court at South Kensington was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The room was spotless, modern, and beautifully appointed with high-quality amenities—including a full set of OSEA products in the bathroom, which made every moment feel luxurious. Daily housekeeping service was thoughtful and kept everything fresh and tidy. There’s a front desk available for luggage storage, and the elevator works smoothly—access requires a key card, which adds a nice touch of security. Location-wise, it’s unbeatable: just a 3-minute walk to South Kensington Underground station, and both the Natural History Museum and Victoria and Albert Museum are within walking distance. Public transport access is seamless, and exploring central London became so easy. One small note: when checking out, we were asked if we’d like to pay a service fee, but this wasn’t mentioned during booking or on arrival. We weren’t sure whether to tip per day or based on meal services, which made the moment a bit awkward. Still, that minor hiccup didn’t take away from how impressed we were with the overall quality, comfort, and convenience. This place offers excellent value and would absolutely be my top pick for future stays in London.
The Dilly
The stay at The Dilly was absolutely perfect—10/10 in every way. I booked through a platform, and honestly, the experience was worth every penny. From the moment we walked into the room, the beautiful décor and thoughtful touches made us feel welcome. The ambiance is elegant yet warm, the location is unbeatable—right in the heart of London with everything nearby. The vibe is just right—quiet enough to relax but still close to all the action. Every detail felt intentional and well-crafted. I’d book again in a heartbeat. This place truly delivers on its promise and then some.
The Apartments by the Sloane Club
The location is absolutely fantastic—situated in a sophisticated, quiet neighborhood with plenty of great restaurants and shops just steps away. The apartments are spacious, well-appointed, and incredibly peaceful, making it a perfect retreat after a long day exploring London. The staff goes above and beyond with their attentive, efficient, and genuinely friendly service. Every detail feels thoughtfully considered, from the modern amenities to the clean, stylish interiors. It’s rare to find such a high level of comfort and hospitality in a city as busy as London. This place truly delivers on every front—highly recommend for anyone looking for a refined, relaxing stay.
Grosvenor House Suites
Grosvenor House Suites truly feels like a hidden gem. From the moment we stepped off the airport transfer, the concierge team welcomed us with open arms—warm drinks and cookies waiting in the second-floor lobby made it feel like coming home. Our entire family, including our 22-month-old son, was treated with such care. Marco brought out a whole box of toys just for him—such a thoughtful touch. Christian then gave us a personal room tour, explained every amenity in detail, and made sure we felt completely at ease. As soon as we entered our suite, we were greeted with a beautifully arranged dining table: a bottle of wine, fresh fruit basket, a platter of local nuts, and exclusive UK teas and cookies. The housekeeping team went above and beyond—twice daily cleanings, morning tidy-ups, evening slippers and water bottles placed on the nightstand, even washing our dishes left in the sink! It was more than service—it felt like being spoiled. We didn’t want to leave the hotel, it was that cozy and comforting. Special thanks to Marco, Robert, Carolina, Christian, Yannick, Antonio, and Lubna for your genuine warmth and meaningful conversations. And heartfelt gratitude to Mr. Henning for making our son’s first international trip unforgettable. Grosvenor House Suites has redefined hospitality. We’re already planning our return.
Home House London
I always stay at this lovely guesthouse whenever I visit London, and it never disappoints. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, like staying with friends. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive—always ready to help with anything you need. I'm especially impressed by the restaurant’s recent renovation; the food quality has significantly improved, and the dishes now feel more balanced and thoughtful. It's clear that teamwork and harmony among the staff have enhanced the overall experience. From check-in to checkout, everything feels seamless and personal. This place truly stands out for its charm and attention to detail. Definitely a top choice for travelers seeking comfort and authenticity in London.
