    Superior single room is great for a solo traveler looking for a central location. Modern room right in the middle of everything. If you get one to the rear of the hotel, it’s very quiet, too!

    Amazing glimpse into what has been and is there no more. Old-school to the rotten core. Location and environment is brilliant though. Suspiciously full of African royalty.

    The hotel is located to all the sights in the centre. The full English breakfast is delicious! Rooms are clean. There was 1 thing that I couldn't find fully satisfying, the doulbe bed's size, is small

    Excellent value, great location, free wi- fi, no air con ( in london in winter it's not really an issue, so just ask for an high floor to avoid the noise of the Strand)

    Excellent staff, good value, free papers/magazines and comfortable bed. Only downside was the noise of the central heating

    Very big towels. Beds are among the best I've slept on in London. We were very comfortable sharing a room with a sofa bed with our 11 year old.

    Pretty decent tea at 13 pounds per person. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to try out high-tea :)

    I always stay here. Small but well equipped rooms. Clean and tidy. Recommended for a short business stay.

    The location is great but there is zero noise insulation. I could literally hear the phone vibration from the room next door, let alone the sounds from the streets. Not sure I would stay here again.

    Great location, ask for a room at the back of the hotel instead of facing the Strand for a peaceful evening!

    The McDonald's version of the Savoy opposite: McSavoy. I quite like it though. Less pretentious. More real people. 'Hello, Bouquet residence.'

    I understand that it's an old hotel, but it's out dated now and needs renovating. The location is what saves this place.

    This is the worst hotel I have ever been. Rooms are small (5 square meters, it seems to me), bathroom is awful, and two bags with new things were stolen from my room by housekeeping!!!

    The lack of air con really let's the place down. Apart from that, it's really quite pleasant.

    Worst hotel. Do not stay here. Tiny coffin of a room with no heat and no noise insulation. Concierge sold us tickets TWICE to shows that did not exist. They charge 2 pounds for a tourist map!

    Avoid drinking in hotel lounge bar, its really expensive and only offers bottle beer. Instead pop around the corner to The Hops bar which belongs to the hotel but It's much cheaper and serves pints.
