It was pricy, but my rate included it. Couple of nights, we had glass of wine sitting in front of fire place in the lobby. I used the spa, which is included in the room rate, almost every night.

The location is wonderful- right at the Hyde Park corner tube stop, and across the street from Hyde Park. We enjoyed morning walks\/runs\/coffee every morning of our stay. There are a few pubs\/restaurants nearby, as well as the bar\/restaurant of the hotels in that area, but it's more of a residential\/embassy area. Our room was fine, although on the first floor and a mostly frosted glass window with not much light coming through. The marble bathroom with heated floor is a nice touch! Everything was clean. The reason I gave it 3 stars is actually the service. Most people were polite, but there was were a few distinctive & unhelpful interactions during our stay. First, we arrived pretty early from an international, overnight flight. We were obviously kind of tired and hoping they might have a room available, although fully aware they may not. We arrived to the hotel around 8:30am, and a room was not offered to us until 2:15pm. We had a very overpriced breakfast in the hotel, went for a long walk, and came back around 11:30, at which point we needed to change for a lunch. They offered us the stairwell & lobby bathrooms to change in...which was really not very useful, although we did it. The other main issue I had was that their service in terms of our room & belongings was rather invasive. They sent a butler to show the \"room features\", and then at turn down on the first night, they did quite a bit of unnecessary & unwelcome unpacking of our clothes. They put things in the closet that we had to search for when we returned, and even put some clothes (some of which were our pajamas!) into the hotel laundry bag. I don't know if most people use the laundry service, but we were there for only a few days and it was most annoying for them to presume (and select which clothes) that we would send out our laundry. These were minor incidents, but because the place prides itself on service, I found this incongruous. We also asked twice to use the hotel car, and it was not available either time. We got a fairly good deal, and with the comfortable bed, clean bath & great location, I would have felt like it was a place I could recommend.

My husband and I traveled to the UK to attend our friends' civil ceremony in Yorkshire, and we decided to add a week's stay in London as a vacation\/belated birthday celebration. We wanted someplace centrally located, reasonably priced, and with great amenities -- and The Rembrandt delivered on all counts. | The hotel is just a short walk from the South Kensington Tube station (turn right out of the turnstiles, follow the passageway, and take the first V&A exit), which made it a perfect base for exploring the city. While it's easy to get just about anywhere in London via the South Kens Tube, there are plenty of great drinking and dining options nearby; we tried several local restaurants (Thai Square, Khan's of Kensington, Kwality Indian, Le Pain Quotidien) and enjoyed pints at our \"local\", The Hoop & Toy, and wine tasting at The Sampler. And the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A) is just across the road! I should add that we always felt safe walking through the neighborhood, even late at night. | As for the hotel itself, we found the staff to be very kind and welcoming. I contacted the hotel before our arrival with a few questions and mentioned that our visit was in part a birthday celebration; customer service specialist Lesley Denyer was very incredibly helpful, offering all kinds of recommendations and noting our special occasion. Upon our arrival, during the friendly and efficient check-in process, we were thrilled to discover that we had been upgraded to an executive room (#547). | Our accommodations were very comfortable, nicely decorated, and quite roomy by London standards. The marble bath was lovely, and we appreciated the full tub\/shower with good water pressure. The room included a comfy bed, desk, closet with safe, chairs, table, and bathrobes; and our windows overlooked a quiet residential area (we could also see the dome of the V&A). The hotel provided Gilchrist & Soames bath amenities, including a conditioning shampoo, body wash, body lotion, and a very small hand soap. (If you prefer using a separate shampoo and conditioner or bath soap rather than body wash, you may want to bring your own.) We loved our room; the only (very minor) issue we experienced is that it occasionally smelled a bit damp\/musty when we returned after a day of sightseeing -- most likely due to the rainy weather during our visit. But I was able to open the windows to allow some fresh air in, and the faint musty odor immediately dissipated. | Our room rate included the breakfast buffet, which was tasty and had good variety. Hot items included eggs, baked beans, mushrooms, and meats (I don't recall what kind, as I'm vegetarian and didn't eat any).

Let's split things into helpful boxes: | Location: You really can't beat it on this. Right in the middle of London, literally by the side of the Thames (we had breakfast right by the path), right next to the South Bank area. Blackfriars tube\/rail is a very short walk away, Covent Garden is about 20 minutes walk. | Rooms: we had a studio room on the sixth floor, not overlooking the river sadly (it's a fair chunk extra for that) but the room itself was excellent. Spacious, stylish, filled with interesting features (I particularly appreciated the lights that just dim until they go dark, with no audible 'click'. It's the little things sometimes) and a giant bed that was satisfyingly firm. The bathroom would possibly not be to everyone's taste but it was very swish and roomy and slick. | The hotel itself: you've probably seen pictures already, but it's ridiculously well done. Unique and impressive all over the place. | Food: we had room service in bed one morning, then breakfast in the restaurant another, and on both occasions it would be very difficult to find fault with the food. It's obviously not cheap (\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd22 each for the restaurant buffet breakfast, for instance) but come on, fresh salmon? And scrambled eggs better than you'll get served up on request at many restaurants... plus, as mentioned, the location is spectacular and that's partly what you pay for. | Other things: I put in an order for a birthday cake to be made and left our room before we arrived, and I'll upload a picture of it. All I'll say is that it was a truly exceptional cake, and I'm confident that it'll be in my top three pretty much forever. | Also we used the gym, which was better than a lot of hotels and had a good range of dumbbells, kettlebells, and a chinning bar. There were also treadmills but come on people, you're on the Thames! Get out there and run. We also were guided through the spa complex to get to the gym, and that was much like I imagine walking through a spaceship might be. | So to sum up, obviously it's an expensive hotel, but in this case you really do get what you pay for.

But as i allways say : if you can dream it you can do it! And it helped : hearing from doctors i am getting better which meant i can go outside and going on holliday...wow! | From the moment i heard this, i opened my laptop and booked eurostar tickets to go to one of my favourite cities in the world, london...but this was going to be totally different. I wanted and needed to treat myself, as i didnt had the opportunity the last years to do this. So i went looking for a nice looking hotel, and if possible one with an atmosphere which screams luxury, but the most of all quietness. To much noise or a to busy lobby would make me ill and actually really quickly i ended up with the savoy. Reading the amazing reviews and watching amazing pictures of the hotel wanted me to make a reservation and without thinking to much about the price, i just did it! | And from that moment, i was stepping into a dream. Having really warm conversations trough email with the staff of the hotel ( thank you hannah) for being sure everything would be perfect for by the time i would arrive, this was very promising. I wasn't the most easy guest i think, asking a few requests like having a quiet room, if possible a spacious room and a late checkout as this would only help to make myself stress- free and never the staff reacted as they found this ridiculous. They actually understood how i must be feeling and how important this stay was. | And gosh, my arrival was more then perfect. A lovely doormen, taking directly my suitcases and opening the doors of the hotel to send me to another amazing friendly staffmember who directly welcomed me by saying \"wonderfull to have you here mr. Vermeersch\". A bit tired of my journey, but my excitement helped me trough this and after having a little tour of the hotel, with lots of \"oohs\" and \"woows\" of being overwhelmed, it got even to another higher level of service as they said they would call my butler...\"my butler?\" , I said, \"yes, we are delighted to offer you one of our suites\" ...so by the time i arrived at my room, the butler was standing there waiting to give me a tour of the room. While he was going to get some tea, all kind of words kept passing me by : Big, luxurious, detailed,overwhelmed, wonderfull, comfy, ...and what a room! ThEy really helped me with offering this spacious room, as this creates a more relaxing atmosphere , although a standard room would have made me allready happy. So i can't thank the wonderfull staff enough for making my important requests reality. Each second i was enjoying my stay, from going to the public toilets ( where they gave you soap and towels before you were able to get it yourself) to having a nice cocktail in the american bar ( altough the ober didn't want to bring us with 3 persons twice the same cocktail as he found this stupid, he wanted everyone to take an other one...found this a bit rude ) to even the most important and amazing thing : each staffmember you are passing by greeting you with a spontanious and friendly \"hi sir\" or \"how do you do\". | As you can hear, this hotel has everything you want and really made me feel special. At one point i had to pinch myself this was really happening : me having a HOLIDAY, in LONDON, In the SAVOY...without becoming ill ( as i have to watch out) so i can only end up by saying savoy will be a memory i will never forget and even further : it gave me the sparkle again in my eyes i had lost over the past years because of my disease, the sparkle of the happy niek who i was used to be. | So the only way to end properly with this review is by saying : | \"A big warm hug\", that's what i would like to give each staffmember the next time i will be staying here. | Ps : as i must enjoy the fact i'm getting better, that will be sooner then i would have been able to imagine --> you see me back in december gorgeous savoy ;-) | Kindest greets to everyone and thank you ! | Niek vermeersch", "Location Of The Reviewer": "Gent, Oost-Vlaanderen, Belgium", "Date Of Review": "8\/29\/2013" }, { "Property_Name": "Rhodes Hotel", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "Excelente", "Review Text": "Muy bueno el hotel, nuestro dormitorio estaba en el subsuelo y era s\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdper luminoso.

They always have the wow factor & the d\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdcor has such a quirky, distinctive style, and the service is always exemplary without being stuffy. The same cannot be said about Mondrian London- we could have been in any generic high-end hotel in the world, and some of the staff behaviour we witnessed was highly sub-standard. | The room was nice, but nice is not a word I would normally use to describe a Morgans room- it\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds usually \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdamazing\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd, \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdiconic\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd, incredible\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd. It was stylish but had no soul & d\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdcor wise we could have been in a room in any hotel in the world. However the view of the Thames & St Pauls was fantastic and was a redemptive feature & the large marble bathroom, which is synonymous with Morgans was amazing & without doubt the highlight of the room. | The bed was enormous, but was so hard it was like sleeping on breeze blocks- possibly one of the worst night\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds sleep I\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdve ever had- had to get up in the night & go & sleep on the couch- not really what you expect from a \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd500 room. | We had aperitifs in the Dandelyan bar- again the d\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdcor is completely unremarkable- nothing special when compared to the likes of the group\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds other bars, but was comfortable enough. We had really high hopes for this bar, as it is apparently run by an award winning mixologist, so we couldn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt wait to sample to cocktails- and wait we did- while we pored over the enormous, incomprehensible menu. It was more like a botanical reference book than a cocktail menu- gargantuan in size and too wordy with no comprehensible flow. People know what they like to drink- either in terms of the spirit base of their cocktail (vodka, rum, gin, whiskey), or the type of drink they prefer (martini, flute, long etc..), therefore it is a sensible idea to arrange menus in a way that people can easily access the information they are looking for, as most high end places do. We got so fed up of trying to look for something suitable that we gave up & ordered a glass of Champagne- which was served warm & flat!!!! Quite ironic that these supposed award winning bartenders, weren\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt even able to get a glass of Champagne right! But the waitress- not sure of her name, but she was of an eastern heritage- was very welcoming and friendly with a constant smile, so made up for the poor drinks. | We went through to dinner, and it was fantastic, the food was all executed perfectly & really tasty & well presented. Service was also very good, but we found the waiter to be quite formal and stiff which was quite surprising in a Morgans. He was very efficient and slick, but wasn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt very engaging and definitely needed to smile more. The d\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdcor of the restaurant was very elegant and had great views across the Thames. There was a clear managerial presence on the floor, which always instils confidence in you as a diner. The Irish manager checked on our table, and the other tables around us, a touch that was very much appreciated. Breakfast was also excellent there. I would wholeheartedly recommend the Sea Containers restaurant, as a stand-alone venue. | We had drinks up at the Rumpus Room & were welcomed by a very colourful character who instantly put a smile on our faces & gave us a very warm welcome (not sure if he was the manager or host- gentleman with a beard & earrings). Again the bar was nice d\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdcor wise, it had a classy feel to it & the views across the Thames were spectacular. This time we opted to sit at the bar, so we could speak to the bartenders about the drinks & avoid another negative experience like we had in Dandelyan. We were served by great bartender- can\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt recall his name- blue eyed chap who I believe told us he was from Hungary. He was friendly & chatty & made us feel welcome without being intrusive. He made us some bespoke cocktails based on our preferences, which were exquisite. Faith restored, we opted to order the next round from the menu- big mistake- they pre make their cocktails in batches & literally just pour it out of a bottle onto ice!!! You may expect this kind of cutting corners from a high-volume, low-end venue, but we certainly did not expect this from a supposed high-end cocktail bar in a luxury hotel!!!! When you are paying around \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd15 for a cocktail, plus service charge, you expect your drinks to be freshly made & for there to be a bit more service than simply opening a bottle! I couldn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt believe what I was seeing! The bartender made us some more bespoke cocktails instead, which again were great- if you visit this bar ask for the bartenders to make you something based on your likes & avoid their menu. We moved to a table & had several different waitresses check on us & serve us, all of whom were friendly & attentive. | The ambience was good in the bar & it is great for people watching, but one thing we did notice, which we thought was highly inappropriate was the lady with the short hair & American accent -not sure what her role was but she seemed to work there, as went behind the bar & was talking (well shouting across the room actually) to all the other staff- openly imbibing in the bar! In our experience of high end hotels, the staff don\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt normally openly drink to the point of belligerence in front of the guests during hours of service, so we were quite shocked by this & didn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt think having a drunk member of staff on the floor was acceptable. So this & the pre made cocktails let this bar down & clouded our otherwise good experience. | Overall I would say this hotel & its facilities are mediocre at best. They are ok, but when you are paying five star prices, you expect a five star experience. If you are a Morgans aficionado like me, then avoid this place and stay at Sanderson or St Martins Lane instead, where you will receive the full Morgans experience. | But I would certainly recommend the Sea Containers restaurant, excellent food & good service in a beautiful location. | And if you don\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt mind a drunken member of staff shouting across the room & having to sit at the bar to order with the bartenders, then I would also recommend Rumpus Room.", "Location Of The Reviewer": "London, United Kingdom", "Date Of Review": "6\/14\/2016" }, { "Property_Name": "The Lanesborough", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "Perfect tranquility", "Review Text": "Just had a wonderful overnight stay at the Lanesborough and it was wonderful. | The style of the hotel was lovely, we think regency, and so peaceful. | All the staff were attentive but not over the top.

From the moment we arrived at the door we were greeted with style and class by the expert doormen and porter team who swiftly showed us through to reception where the delightful Lilly took us through a very swift and easy check in experience. Throughout our stay (and based upon my previous experiences visiting the Lanesborough and other hotels) my mother and I both noted how excellent the doormen were- certainly some of the finest in London and always willing to welcome you by name back into the hotel and provide a cheery goodbye when exiting. As the first and last point of call when at the hotel these men have got their craft down to a perfection. | We were delighted to find upon check in that as it was a Birthday celebration and there was availability we had been upgraded from the Executive Room to a Premier Room, the hotel having been able to match my exact decor specifications in the room (special thanks for Mr Shard for taking down these details at the point of reservation)- I could not have asked for a room closer to my taste! Upon entering the room I was greeted by a delightful Birthday cake (due to a very minor issue with it however we were not able to finish the cake but from what we did try it was delicious) so a special thanks goes to Ms Bursford\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds guest services team for this wonderful detail . | Our room was extremely spacious, very light and airy with all the in room facilities helping make our stay effortless. The bathroom was beautifully appointed with the softest towels of any hotel my mother or I have visited. It is quite easy to miss many of the bathroom features and any slight little issues I could even think about raising could have been solved by the press of the 'housekeeping' button next to the butler call button. We choose not to do so as we found solutions to them ourselves so they really are not worth mentioning. In the morning we took breakfast, complimentary due to an offer whereby accepting a complimentary year\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds membership of 'Leading Hotels of the World' (which will no doubt prove most useful!) meant receiving a complimentary breakfast, in our room. The service was excellent with the trolley arriving perfectly presented and set up by the team members with all host of delights available through the 'Lanesborough Breakfast' menu option. There was a minor issue given that we tried to split the times of two breakfasts after having initially ordered them to arrive together and the second ended up arriving early but I put this down to my not having been clear at the time I was amending the order, as it was I was happy to receive the breakfast earlier than I had planned anyway. While I dined elsewhere in the night my mother dined through the in room dining menu, ordered through the control hub tablet system in place in all rooms, and was extremely impressed that not only did the team who delivered it ensure it was set up well in room but they also were aware she had been to the spa and hence provided bottled water for rehydration and had the turn down service rescheduled so she could enjoy dining in peace- this was a consistent feature of our visit where needs were anticipated by staff before they were mentioned by ourselves. Her only comment was that she did not find it easier to find how to specify the delivery time through ordering on the tablet system (which strangely was easy to specify when ordering breakfast) but as one can order via the butlers or via the phone system this should not present guests with a problem. | The Butler service every hotel guest at the Lanesborough receives was second to none. It was wonderful that upon calling the Butler to help set up our Wi-Fi and opening the room door the truly delightful Bettina was there to wish me a Happy Birthday with an unrivalled smile and cheer. Our interactions with Bettina throughout our stay were perhaps the real highlights of the whole stay as positivity simply exuded from her and fill us both with smiles every time. If I am completely honest I was at first unsure what to think having painted the picture in my mind and had been eagerly anticipating experiencing the traditional \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdgentlemen\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd butler, but Bettina surpassed all expectations and was a real delight who we cannot thank enough for making our visit special. With the press of a button on her system Bettina, anticipating our needs following a passing comment about our train time, secured late check out for us as the room was not needed immediately so we did not need to vacate it as early as planned- this was very greatly appreciated and made life so much easier. All elements of the butler service really were first class. We did not sample every standard service the butlers offer (e.g. the drawing of a bath and unpacking) as we were traveling light and were only resident for a single night but my freshly shined shoes had never been so gleaming following sending them off to the butlers. | Both my mother and I visited the brand new Lanesborough Club and Spa in the in the evening and afternoon respectively. Upon my own visit Ernest and Mohammed the two spa butlers were as helpful as anyone could be and always made sure to keep me engaged and interested and answer any questions I had and I understand this was the same for my mother. One should always ask for directions to the new spa as it can be quite a warren of passageways to access the lift but the concierge team are adept at guiding guests through to the lift. The facilities at the new spa were first class, the only thing that was not operational on my visit was the post Sauna ice trough which was awaiting repair though this was working in the female thermal suite. The Hydropool, perhaps the star attraction of the new spa was one of my favourite experiences and was itself almost like a treatment given how relaxing it was. The array of products on offer in the changing rooms to use pre and post spa were also first class. I had a spur of the moment decision to try and book a pedicure when I arrived at the spa but sadly the painting room was fully booked during the free time I had, my fault for not booking ahead, so I would advise anyone wishing to have a treatment to let the team know at the very least 24 hours in advance to ensure the best availability and avoid disappointment. | While I was dining elsewhere my mother enjoyed first rate hospitality at the Library Bar, I know from having visited this and left reviews for the Library Bar before that it is a first class establishment and perhaps the cosiest in London. The team there went to exceptional efforts to ensure she was well looked after and entertained while she awaited my arrival and when I did arrive they had a special little cake prepared with a candle to say happy birthday and two glasses of house champagne- they could not have been more friendly and I shall certainly make the Library bar my bar of choice when in London. | This is clearly a hotel at the top of its game and Mr Gelardi has every right to be proud of his exceptional staff. I would always advise anyone looking to stay at this hotel or dine there to deal with the hotel directly (I experienced, due to a matter not directly related to my stay but related to the new Lanesborough website, prior to my stay dealing with the parent company, the Oetker collection, and found while they were polite the response times were slow on a matter where I provided them with what I would deem great assistance to them rather than vice versa. I was slightly indignant over the lack of acknowledgement for the recommendations I gave them which they acted upon but did not reply to this was put down to their efforts in dealing with a crisis elsewhere in the collection. All the same I must comment no such thing was comparable to the instantaneous service levels Lanesborough itself hence I would recommend always going to The Lanesborough as your first point of call over the collection itself or booking agencies). | I conclude by saying that while the Lanesborough might be my first London 'Grande Damme' hotel resident visit, it is by no means the first 'Grande Damme' non-resident visit and having had the pleasure of being inside the other hotels it is quite common to feel, following the attention the staff give you, that you wish you could be resident in the hotel full time, only at the Lanesborough however have I experienced the feeling where I wished I was not just resident there but actually working there, such was the dedication, good spirit, passion and sheer attention to detail of all the staff involved.

Being a new hotel, I was curious to see how their tea experience would compare to the long standing hotels: Claridges, Ritz, Dorchester and Lanesborough (The Big Four). | The hotel is right next to Trafalgar Square and Embankment Tube - easy access to Westminster, the West End and Buckingham Palace. St James Park is not far and the street itself, Whitehall Place is lovely and quiet. | Inside, the lobby is elegant. Clear vases of white arum lilies were scattered throughout the hotel. | Afternoon tea is served in the Lobby Lounge which is in between the hotel\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds two main entrances. Personally, like the big 4, I would have carpeted the floor in the LL to distinguish itself from the surrounding spaces. The feel of the LL is very similar to Apsleys at The Lanesborough due to its sky light & chandelier, but with less formal table settings. The decor is very polished, with natural light flooding from above. There are plans to open a side garden courtyard which will be a unique, welcomed feature. | Despite a few problems with our reservation confirmation, this was soon made up by a personal apology from the LL Assistant Manager, Mr. Carmine, who continued to serve us. This was an excellent touch and he couldn't do enough to make this a positive and lasting experience for us. | I was seriously impressive by the scones here. The cakes were nice too, as I find most hotel afternoon tea cakes look the part but taste bland. Not so here. The scones were perfectly formed, just warm and ever so crumbly yet stable enough to hold in your hand before gorging away at them. Inside, they were so fluffy, better, dare I say than Claridges which, up until now, served the best scones (Savoy\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds were surprisingly large and chewy). | The selection of tea was average, not monstrous like the big 4 but of high quality. This was fine for us but for those who are serious about their tea selection, may demand more. My only concern when (not if) I visit again will be the seating arrangements. Like the Promenade in The Dorchester, the LL\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds table settings demand customers to share the same sofa as your stranger neighbour, and some tables were 10cm away from the next, neither which I am not a fan off. There are separate tables for you and your co, if so desired, which we had on this occasion, so do request this at time of booking. I did pass on feedback regarding the music they were playing from the speakers, which included Bob Dylon. I don\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt mind not having a live harpist or pianist playing during tea like the big 4 but tourists or even Londoners on a grand day out might expect this. I suggested they play classical music \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd it\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds a safe bet. For me, good scones beat live pianists. All the other fine details I look for in an Afternoon tea experience were met. | Afterwards, I requested a tour of the guestrooms which also included the two restaurants and bar - all stunning, particularly the the Massimo restaurant and the fireplace in the Bassoon bar. The hotel is not finished, but I wouldn't let this put you off staying here. I noticed plenty of security. The guest rooms were cosy, modern yet stately in decor. Rooms have a city view or Juliet balcony (my preference), which reminded me of Paris. Homely touches avoid this from being a \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdcorporate hotel', which given it's location, could easily have been. The bathrooms are big and all have a window. Unfortunately the spa was unfinished so we were unable to view it \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd but it will be ESPA\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds global flagship spa, again with impressive CG images so no doubt I\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdll try this when it opens.", "Location Of The Reviewer": "London, United Kingdom", "Date Of Review": "5\/6\/2011" }, { "Property_Name": "Mondrian London at Sea Containers", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "One of the best hotel in London", "Review Text": "The room is small, clean and modern, te bed is confortable | the buffet is perfect, the service is more than great and the coffee is too tasty!!! | the metro is closed from there.

I personally did not like anything for an appetizer and my girlfriend did not want desert so I asked if we had to order all 3 courses and could we take some off the tab if we ordered just the main or even replace them with sides (which are not included)? She told me that I could order one course but the price would not change and I wasn't going to pay that much for just one course with no sides at a hotel restaurant. | | On top of that DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH FOR RESTAURANTS! The concierge there was no help I mean he would call places that I found to make reservations for us, but he was just doing Google searches and came up with the same results I did in my room. I wanted to eat off the beaten path and every night he would say \"I do not know look at convent garden\". | (As a side note when we went to 3 cities in Italy every place would recommend places that they would go to eat and out of all the places we only had 1 bad place out of 2 weeks there.) It was very frustrating to find a place as we went during the holidays and every placed was packed.

We quite simply expected more for our money; especially as The Savoy has got a \"supposedly\" exceptional reputation. The main courses tasted average (the chips were slightly undercooked though) and personally I have tasted better (and for a third of the price) at my local pub.

We walked from the grand foyer into a small side room with open fireplace and exquisite Edwardian desks (I don\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt know if they were Edwardian but they looked the part). The walls were adorned with beautiful paintings and the whole Savoy experience was beginning to dawn on me.

First off, let's just say that this is not a cheap hotel - we are after all talking about London, and about a prime riverfront location close to the City. However, for a special occasion it is worth saving up for it, especially if you are not quite able to afford the super crazy prices of the top tier hotels but still want to stay somewhere that is stylish, modern and with good service and fine food. | Having seen the web page of the hotel, my preconception was that this might be the type of place with snooty \"arty\" guests and hotel staff that are above themselves (having seen this before in other design hotels). Believe me, nothing could be further than the truth, at least as far as staff are concerned. The staff in this hotel are a credit to it - it is clear that human resources did very well in recruitment. Maybe they are a little too enthusiastic, but I might also be if I worked in such a stunning hotel! | The location is prime for both tourist and business travellers. The former will find themselves on the South Bank, which is one of the more visitor-friendly parts of town, while the latter find themselves on the doorstep of the City, with Blackfriars Station just steps away. The riverside setting is stunning, especially at night and the river view rooms are worth the extra money. | The rooms themselves are extremely comfortable, tastefully decorated and a very generous size for London. Unlike other designer hotels, functionality has not been sacrificed on the altar of trendiness. The only minor point I would have is that wardrobe space might be limited for those that are staying more than a few days - but not a big issue in my opinion as the rooms are large enough. | The food is excellent. The menu is not too large, and at first glance does not appear to be anything special. But these guys know how to turn a humble vegetable like a potato or sprout into something that tastes like a delicacy. Full marks there. | Are there \"better\" hotels in London? It obviously depends what you are looking for, but if you want to stay somewhere well-located with stunning river views, with well-proportioned rooms and excellent food and service standards, and with a relaxed atmosphere, then save up your money because this hotel is special.

I'd previously stayed at the Arran House Hotel in 2007, so knew the area well and was keen to stay in Gower Street again. The Ridgemount was recommended by my Travel Agent who'd stayed there herself. I stayed in Room 16 on the ground floor - a single room with ensuite, and also very small, but it had everything you needed. Unfortunately London was entering a heat wave at this time, so I was more concerned about security, being on the ground floor, and needing to leave windows open. The owners were quite willing to move me, but I would have had to wait a couple of days as the hotel was full, and the new room would have been right at the top. After a night in the \"broom cupboard\" I decided it was fine, and chose small room and NO STAIRS, over having to struggle up several flights of stairs to the top floor! | The room and hotel were spotlessly clean, rooms fully cleaned every day, my ensuite was a reasonable size, and further inspection on the first day revealed a hair-dryer, as I'd taken a punt on leaving mine at home, AND not one but TWO fans, the larger one of which gave out quite a ferocious breeze - handy in the heat wave as you can imagine. My room looked out onto the garden area at the back, so no traffic noise. One window had bars on it, so could stay open at night, but I left both open without any problems. The only downside of dwelling in the garden broom-cupboard, was that one morning, a couple of young ladies were smoking in the garden, and one of them actually peered through my window as I was getting ready for the day's sightseeing. After telling them \"to get lost because it wasn't the zoo (though in rather more impolite terms), they were never seen again!! | Overall I had a great stay, and felt thoroughly at home - the owners Mr and Mrs Rees, and their son Aled were wonderful, and it was like staying in a family home. Breakfasts were quite filling, and the staff very friendly with prompt, efficient service. I never had to wait for anything, although the fact that my room was right next to the stairs down to the breakfast room, meant I got there fairly early each day. Mr Rees is a never-ending fount of knowledge about public transport and sight-seeing, and even though I am quite familiar with London, he could always give me some tips on shorter routes that I hadn't thought about, especially the \"quick way\" to King's Cross station on my last morning. Most invaluable when lugging one's port for blocks! | The hotel also has free WIFI, two guest computers in the lounge, drink machines, and the staff will wash and dry your laundry for 5 pounds - I did this twice, and it was wonderful.

There was a note on the dressing table that the building was being renovated and so there would be some work being carried out between certain times. The bed was very comfortable and I slept like a log which is unusual for me. We didn't try the restaurant as we had already booked a table at San Carlo Cichetti's in Covent Garden and we overslept so just grabbed a costa for breakfast. | On checkout we were dealt with once again by Lukas and the same female colleague (don't you let your staff go home?) they were very friendly and helpful yet again.

The Savoy London failed in this area. No recognition for being an AMX Centurion member. No acknowledgement for being loyal Fairmont President club members. The first room given was so small I could not open my luggages, truly no joking. The room had shutters for the bathroom door. One half window that looked into the saddest view that I have ever seen with fake flowers in some pot looking at you. Disgusting! I felt like I was sleeping in a box. I felt claustrophobic. I changed rooms the second day to a better room that at least I could open my luggages. What pissed me off was the fact the front desk agent had rooms to upgrade me to however their supervisor did not approve the upgrade as they wanted to upsell the rate. Already paying 800$ US a night you would think you would get a room that at least. You could open. Your luggages in and have a bathroom where the door was a real door not a pair of wooden shutters! When I think of my experience at the famous Savoy Hotel I laugh because it was so bad and was far from the first class experience that I was anticipating. Two weeks before staying here I stayed at the Mandarin Oriental London Hyde Park and that hotel has it right, knowing how to treat their customers, first class all the way!!! Time for the Savoy to take lessons from other hotels in their category of business or step away from this competitive market. If in London again I would not choose this hotel again as there are other first class hotels that have better prices and better services than this one. I have to admit, commend and recognize the stellar bellman that looked after our bags and the stellar concierge that booked our car service back to LHR. Both were outstanding and deserve merit ay from this poor review of the general hotel. One more thing that I have to mention which bothered me was the plastic curtain rods in the room to mp e th curtains. Have you heard of automated curtains or at least rods that will actually pull the curtain rather than doing nothing and risking breaking in your hand. The towel warming rods were always on which was a huge safety hazard if traveling with children. The last hotel we stayed at you could turn on and off the hot towel rods. No never again.

A quirky 3* at most!", "Review Text": "My husband and I stayed at the Mondrian Hotel last weekend, after purchasing a Superior room at a \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdspecial offer\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd price via Secret Escapes for my birthday treat and unbeknown to me, he had emailed the hotel to let them know it was a birthday celebration. However, unlike the numerous guests who enjoyed wine, cake and cards delivered to their rooms in acknowledgement of the celebration, he didn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt even get a reply to his email and not a sign of recognition of my birthday in all the time we stayed | . | Nonetheless, we had high expectations of this new \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdLuxury\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd hotel which opened its doors on 30th September this year, based in a fabulous location by the River particularly after the all hype and promotional material we had read. | When we arrived we noted that the outside still had a lot of building works going on, and my first thought was, we better not be looking out onto any of that scaffolding! We were greeted by a friendly member of staff who asked us to queue at reception where we would be checked in. This didn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt take long and we were then escorted to our room which was on the 11th floor, whilst along the way the young guide chatted to us pointing out the various areas of the hotel. | When we stepped into our room we held our breath for the panoramic view of London city as promised on their own website \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd \"All Superior rooms feature queen or king beds, custom designed dimmable lighting, bespoke furniture and stunning marble bathrooms indicative of Hollywood Glamour, complete with MALIN+GOETZ amenities. Superior rooms also boast some of the hotel's best London views\" \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd well, the hotel wasn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt full but we had a horrible view of a couple of high rise office blocks just outside the window (see the photo we took). | The good bits about the room was the comfortable bed (albeit small \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd we must have had the queen size rather than king) and the bedding was new and fresh \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd thanks heavens we were going to get a decent night\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds sleep! Plenty of lighting and the TV which was mounted on the wall was pretty big. Actually, it was mounted too close to the bed so a little uncomfortable to watch \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd not enough thought given to the layout. The lighting all round was \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdin your face\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd and way too intense, we ended up having to switch it off completely because even dimmed right down was still much too bright. | The clothes hanging area (wardrobe) closed with a curtain on a pole, a reflection of the furniture and fittings which are all pretty cheap and tacky and it won\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt be long before it starts to look shabby. Attempts at dramatic effects have been made with low-cost materials and it shows. | The bathroom had a nice shower area, although when in use, the water leaks onto the bathroom floor unless you remember to butt the towel right up to the entrance, and the inch high step between the bathroom and bedroom has you stubbing your toe each time you walk in and out. | The toiletries are generous but not luxurious, very mediocre. | | The tea tray included 2 large mugs and a kettle, also some small sachets of really rank fair-trade instant coffee, sugar sachets and two teabags \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd really, what a poor effort, why bother? For a moment I thought we were in a Travelodge! Prices of anything on the room menu however, were very much indicative of a 5 star hotel! | The room telephone didn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt work because it needed to charge! | Buffet breakfast was included in the price the next day and we made our way to the restaurant which wasn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt busy although there were more than enough staff milling about. We were given a \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdmenu\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd when we registered our names and room number before sitting down. A choice of anything from the table including cereals, fruit, yogurt, cheeses and ham, toast etc. and then either two eggs, bacon and eggs or sausage and eggs. Condiments on the table included a small open dish with salt flakes (how unhygienic!) and I had to grab a pepper grinder from another table. You could have your eggs any style and although we chose scrambled, I think they had started out as an omelette and were stirred at the last minute. It was probably one of the worst breakfasts we've eaten in a London hotel although thankfully the coffee was much better than the instant rubbish offered in the rooms and I imagine the River view from the restaurant would be absolutely stunning on a hot summer\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds day with the bi-fold doors open. The furniture in the Restaurant again was very cheap looking and uncomfortable to sit for too long. | Summing up this hotel - it\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds in a good location - the favourite areas like Covent Garden, Theatre land etc are close by, its new and the staff are friendly and eager - it would naturally appeal to the younger crowds. A huge effort has been made in promoting it but our own experience was very disappointing, we've stayed in some fabulous 5* hotels all over London and by comparison, this one doesn't even come close. | I can't imagine it ever reaching luxury standard not even when all the teething problems have been ironed out and would rate it as a quirky 3* and not to everyone\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds taste by any means.

The staff are exceptional - immaculately turned out, friendly, professional and so helpful, nothing was too much trouble - is this thanks to 'in house' training? if so, well done! - you should start a training scheme for other hotels. A special mention for Daniel who was an absolute star - a young man who surely must go far in the hospitality business. | This hotel is about 5 minutes walk from Moorgate station, in the business area, so very quiet at weekends, which is great for a peaceful nights sleep but if its night life you want then you will have to travel a little - it suited us fine. | The rooms are superb - very comfortable, beautifully designed and furnished, modern with co-ordinated bed linens and curtains - all top quality. There is also a lovely flat screen TV mounted on the wall and a Bose I-pod stand. A well stocked mini-bar but prices rather steep - \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd17.50 for a half bottle of fairly ordinary wine, \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd3.50 for a small can of tonic etc - I'm sure more people would avail themselves of hotel mini- bars if the prices were a little more realistic - but not a major gripe. There is also a very simple to operate safe in the built in wardrobes. The room had AC but operated very quietly. | The good sized, very modern bathroom is a delight, with a separate bath and walk-in shower, fluffy towels and a lovely selection of Elemis toiletries, plus of course the Apex duck. Dressing gowns were also provided but we did not use them. | Our room on the 4th floor overlooked the road where a building opposite is being renovated but due for completion fairly soon but any work certainly did not disturb us. | The public rooms and restaurant are lovely - one of the nicest restaurants we have been to in any London hotel. The tables in the restaurant are set into 'mini -rooms' so give a much more intimate feel to the dining experience and each large window facing the street has a bowl of beautiful white orchids - indeed each table has a very simple but stunning contemporary flower | arrangement as do all the tables in the bar, which presumably are changed on a regular basis as they looked so fresh - a lovely touch which just added to the whole look of the rooms. We also liked the lighting - enough for you to see exactly what you are doing but subdued enough to create a good ambiance. | The food itself is excellent. There is a superb choice at breakfast catering for all tastes which is served at your table - no buffet breakfast here where food has sat for ages and been picked over- my fruit platter was beautifully served as was the 'full English'. Only complaint? the tea is a bit weak - for the size of pot it really does need at least two tea bags!! | We also ate in the Restaurant for 2 of our evening meals and the experience was just as good - not the widest choice in the world but again beautifully served. Service was very good, staff attentive without being intrusive and we felt the menu offered good value for money. After a day trudging round London it was good to come back to the hotel, shower and know that all we had to do to eat was go downstairs. | All in all a wonderful experience in a most comfortable hotel, within easy reach of the underground and main line stations. Most certainly we would recommend it to others and most certainly, if we see it at the right price, it would be our hotel of choice for visiting London, so many, many thanks to all those who work so hard, front of house, house-keeping etc to make it such a lovely hotel - it was a real pleasure to stay there.", "Location Of The Reviewer": "Lancashire", "Date Of Review": "9\/5\/2012" }, { "Property_Name": "The Savoy", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "Where life-long memories are made", "Review Text": "For me, the London Savoy is the best hotel in the world.

The room was well decorated and very clean. Bathroom was very small, but there was no problem doing your business of showering etc in there. The room was cleaned every day and fresh towels provided whenever we wished. | Breakfast was included in the price and we enjoyed that very much too.

It was the 3rd hotel in London of our recent trip, and we feel it had the best price-to-value ratio. The hotel lobby is stunning - just check out the pictures on the site! We were visiting on a weekend in January and the restaurants and bars were hopping. Not so much that they felt un-welcoming, but certainly a popular spot. | The rooms were fantastic. We loved that we could connect our phones via in-room bluetooth and listen to our own music. The toiletries were solid and unique, and the bathroom was well appointed. The bed was comfortable; not the most comfortable I've ever slept in, but I give it a 4 out of 5. It was good. The only complaint I have about the rooms were the price of the in-room minibar drinks. I fully understand that mini-bars are expensive. I'm not surprised when I see prices of $5-10 for beers, $8-10 for mini bottles of liquor... It's pretty standard in the industry. But this hotel's mini-bar prices... WOW. They are WAY up there! The drinks sounded inventive so I was curious to try one, but I'm glad I checked the price before I dropped over 20 pounds on a drink. | The hotel staff was friendly. Not warm and welcoming like the folks at the sofitel, but friendly for sure. I wish there was a little more organization to the line at check-in, we had 4 people cut in front of us before we were taken. I will say the bell staff was friendly and took our bags for us upon arrival, but once we got our room keys, they disappeared, so we just grabbed our own luggage off the cart and walked up with it. | We loved the modern-art touches throughout the hotel. The sculptures in the hallways, the backdrops in the elevators - it was great! It felt like everywhere we went there was something new to look at. | Overall impressions - beautiful hotel - fair price for what you get - fantastic rooms - decent staff - amazing location.

After all this time, the place even better and the memories from this visit will last forever... for auld lang syne my dear... ! This is a review for an 8 day stay. | The Savoy is a pricey, luxury hotel on the Strand, on the North side of the River Thames across from the London Eye and near Trafalgar Square, Covent Garden and the theatre district. For us this location was perfect. Walking distance to everything we wanted to do. | The Savoy's entrance is offset from the Strand by a half-block long drive-up area. It has a beautiful entrance and the lobby area was beautifully decorated for the holidays, featuring a wealth of eager to please greeters and door people. I checked-in the family in a separate parlor area, seated at a desk, VIP style. | We booked a family room. It's really two adjacent rooms with a shared bathroom. Mom and Dad's room had a cushie king sized bed with desk, large closet, desk, and mini-bar. The kids room was two queen sized beds. Each room had its own door leading to a small shared entry room that connected with the bathroom. | The bath room was large and luxurious. Bathtub, toilet, bidet, shower stall, towel warmers... really very nice, but only setup for one person at a time. | This hotel dates back to the late 1880s, but it has been recently re-habbed. It's decor is true to its history and features nice art work and wall paper. | We used the shoe shine and laundry service. We loved the fine touches from the housekeeping staff. The bell staff helped us check in and check-out. I got regular text messages from the staff asking if everything was okay. I felt pampered. At one point, we texted the word Terrific to the hotel to describe our visit. | Breakfast was included with our room price, and we really enjoyed breakfast. The Savoy serves a complete breakfast menu for all tastes. I enjoyed a omelet and toast every morning, with fresh squeezed orange juice. This was a full service meal, and it usually took an hour or so. That was okay, we learned to wake up a little early to enjoy the whole experience. A couple of times the servers seated us by the windows with a view of the River Thames. After our last day, we were sadly saying goodbye. Thanks for treating us so warmly! | New Years Eve. We reserved a table for our family at the Savoy's New Years Eve celebration dinner. We arrived at 7:30 and didn't leave until 1:30am. We were served a multi-course meal that was spread over several hours. Our desert was served about 11pm. We loved, loved, loved our waiter!! We sat near the live entertainment: a jazz singer and piano. They were delightful! At 11:45, the river side doors were opened, and we all walked outside to the Victoria Embankment. Where were situated straight across the River Thames from the London Eye... The center of London's New Year's celebration. | Midnight. We could hear the music and the countdown to midnight. Happy New Year!! The band led the whole city it in singing Auld Lang Syne while watching the fantastic fireworks show -- very moving, I loved it; I loved the family experiencing it together!. We went back inside and had another bottle of champagne. The entertainment ended and we went to bed. This will be a family memory that will last forever!! | Location. The Savoy is a block away from Covent Garden. This is a delightful and historic open-market shopping and dining area. We had dinner at a restaurant or pub near Covent Garden nearly every night. We just went walking and stopped into some place that looked good. Covent Garden is just a short walk to Leicester Square -- where we saw Star Wars (for me, for the 2nd time). From there it is a short walk to Piccadilly Circus, which was where we did most of our shopping (Regent Street to Oxford Circus). On our first afternoon we walked down the Strand -- its name changes to The Mall -- which leads straight to Buckingham Palace. For us, the hotel was in a perfect spot. | Transportation to airport. From Heathrow, we took the Heathrow Express to Paddington Station; then took a taxi to the hotel. This was ok, but we had 8 days of luggage, so, for our return, we took a taxi straight to Heathrow. Taxis both ways is best. | Tube. The hotel is near two underground stations: Covent Garden and Embankment. The Embankment station is on the District and Bakerloo Lines. Very handy for tourists. But perhaps just as good was Covent Garden underground station; it is on the Piccadilly line; we learned that this line gets very crowded and sometimes it is easier to walk than to jam into a train at rush hour. Either way, two good stations. | Rail. We took trains out of the city to Windsor Castle and Hampton Court Palace. Both times we used Waterloo station. It was right across the river over the Waterloo Bridge from our hotel -- about a 15 minute walk. The station is huge, and you need to get there a little early to find the ticket kiosk and rail line. The trains are new, modern and comfortable. One day, it was particularly rainy and we took a taxi from our hotel to Waterloo Station.", "Location Of The Reviewer": "Naperville, Illinois, USA", "Date Of Review": "1\/12\/2018" }, { "Property_Name": "Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park, London", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "Outstanding customer service and experience", "Review Text": "My husband and I stayed here for just 1 night on Valentine's Day.

But this is what really surprised me: | I received the standard post-visit survey and whilst completing it, I did mention that in our room, there was a small area of carpet that looked like it had been missed by housekeeping with the vacuum cleaner. To my amazement, the Executive Housekeeper called me to discuss it, to apologise and to assure me this was normally never the case. | We had a lovely conversation and I was very impressed; a week later, so two weeks after we had stayed, my husband realised that his enormous bottle of Dior aftershave was not at home. This was from their private collection and for aftershave wasn't cheap at around \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd200 - and he'd hardly used it. | We searched our house and out of desperation, I called the Exec Housekeeper, Susana Fernandez, to ask if there was any chance we had left it there. | To my amazement, she called me to tell me that they had it!!!

Discussing who was related to whom at great length 500 years ago is not as interesting to kiddos as much as chatting about the jewels, the torture chambers, etc. I wish that the concierge had listened to my request a little more.

We stayed at the Corinthia London for 3 days, and I must say it was lovely. We booked the executive rooms using Expedia. The definite positives are: | 1. Showers- the shower experience was second to none, mainly because of the water pressure. This has to be one of the best shower pressures ever, you could almost drown yourself lol... Not literally, but pressure for days. I'm dreaming about it now as I write this. Reminded me about the Seinfeld shower episode. | 2. Location- this was a hop skip and a jump from all the top rated tourist sites. It was a luxurious location, high end. | 3. Service- treated with respect from the doorman to the room service.b Thank you all for being as professional as you were. | 4. Our breakfast was included, and that even included a la carte breakfast. You would need to get ore details on this, I am not sure if it was just a fluke. | 5. Walk in closet- A nice touch, may not be included in all room types. | 6. Large windows- this made the difference. | Now for the things why this wasn't a 5 in my opinion. | 1. Pre authorizations for incidentals- We aren't all royals. The pre authorization amounts they hold are the same or close to the room rate. Incidentals pre authorizations were as much as each room, per night, in my case more. That is correct, per night.

My previous experiences in London were in very nice, very British hotels, in very nice sections of the city, but after my experience at the Mondrian I can't imagine staying anywhere else in London. The hotel has the coolness and the fun of the other Mondrian properties, but it also works at a very high level of pure function. The rooms are very well appointed and you will have not only a very nice bed, but a beautiful bathroom and a good working area. The public rooms and the restaurants are stunning in their design and there is art throughout the hotel. One of the \"musts\" of any stay at the Mondrian is having a drink in the Rumpus Room, the rooftop bar, as you will be treated to not only a unique view of London but also an excellent bar and matching service. Simon, in the Rumpus Room, took especially good care of us but every member of the staff is an active participant in making your visit not only pleasant but memorable. For people that are into their mixology, there will be no disappointment here as there is an excellent cocktail menu and even some bottles that are made specifically for the hotel. As for meals, we had breakfast and room service dinner, and they were excellent experiences. So, all of this that I have described is wonderful and, quite frankly, the attributes of the excellent restaurant, the excellent bar, the nicely appointed room could be said about other high-end hotels in London, but the element of separation from those experiences and the Mondrian is the staff. The service at this hotel will blow you away - at every level. To cite but one example, we had a major travel snafu and I can't properly describe the great lengths that Cam and Jordan at the concierge desk went to in order to rectify this for us.

The bathroom was actually pretty spacious compared with the bedroom. Closet space was adequate. Two fluffy terry robes were provided, and the towels were bath-sheet sized and very thick.

These little things, to me, make the difference in a long stay! | The coup de grace came on the night before I left--it was my birthday, and the hotel sent up a lovely bottle of wine for me to enjoy.

There is no denying it, the hotel is stunning. It was unfortunate therefore that a fire alarm just before 18:00 hours on Saturday afternoon \/ evening threw the hotel into chaos. Fire alarms started going off, then stopped, then started again. This went on for a good 5 - 10 minutes. During this time we were trying to get to our room on the 8th floor to collect our belongings and get ready to go out for dinner. In this time the lifts were working one minute and not the next. After trying to take the stairs from the 5th floor we ended up getting stuck in a stairwell as the doors out of the stairwell were locked with signs on them saying \"No escape\". We therefore had to turn back. Ironically on other floors (e.g. the 8th floor) a number of fire doors had been propped open. Upon finally getting to the 8th floor we bumped into a member of staff (a chambermaid) whom we asked about the alarm going on and off. She simply said \"don't worry, it's just a fire alarm\" and she walked of! Upon getting back to our room the alarm had gone off again and this time didn't stop. Only upon looking out the window did we see people evacuating. Surprisingly there was no form of tannoy announcement about the evacuation procedure. I work in a huge office building and whenever the fire alarm goes off there is instruction about when to evacuate (a floor-by-floor procedure). Upon exiting the building the chaos didn't end. There were no staff around to start with so people were simply milling around by the entrance to the hotel. Finally we were told to walk along Upper Ground. I would have expected at least a few staff to have lined the route to direct people to the assembly point. After about 45 minutes in the cold we were allowed back into the lobby. At no point were there any announcements or apologies from any staff member. No one appeared to take charge. About 1.5 hours later guests were allowed back in. We received a hastily written letter shoved under our room door which barely apologised for the inconvenience. Furthermore upon checkout there was no apology given and we weren't even asked if everything was okay with our stay. I guess management didn't want to open that can of worms! | So, in summary, lovely hotel but really poor service.

I had stayed at Corinthia back in May and had a most wonderful experience - my regret then was having checked in really late and having barely enough time to sleep, much less check out the facilities, though I spent many minutes just pacing around the bathroom marvelling at the under-floor heating. | I'd subsequently gushed endlessly to my work contacts about how great this hotel is, focusing primarily on the sheer size of the rooms and the aforementioned under-floor heating. A business trip now in November led to a repeat stay at this hotel, and I kept telling my work mates how awesome it will be. | Upon check-in, I was given my key which unlocked a room that seemed to be an after-thought size-wise. (This would be the \"restricted view\" equivalent at a theatre.) It was a whole lot smaller than what I had remembered from my previous stay, and when I logged onto the hotel website to take a quick look, it became quite clear that this was a mis-represented product. The website indicates 345 square feet for the superior King (and helpfully has a scale map and some photos to show what one should expect). There is no way that room clocks in at 345 square feet. When the bellboy brought my trolley luggage to the room and asked where I would like him to put it, I asked him where he would usually put it in this room. He looked somewhat embarrassed as he pushed the luggage flush against the wall at the entrance to the bedroom, so that about a-third of the entrance was effectively blocked by the luggage. I wanted to ask him so what happens when I need to put this on a luggage rack and, you know, open my luggage, but that would have been mean, because there just would not have been a solution. | I headed down to reception to ask if the hotel was fully occupied (it was not) and requested for a room change. I was then asked if I would like to upgrade to the next level of rooms for a fee. It did not dawn upon me right then to ask if accepting the sub-standard room I was given would thus entitle me to a partial refund of the good money I was paying to stay here for two nights, but that would have been funny. I declined to pay to upgrade myself, and requested for just a change, and was told that the room in question was not yet ready. Since I was about to head out for dinner, I asked to sort this all out when I returned. | Fast forward a few hours and I did get a new room. Another bellboy helped bring my luggage over to the new one, and when I remarked how much smaller the other room was, he agreed. I also noted that the room had not been turned down (no chocolate treats for me tonight!). I then headed to the bathroom only to find that the under-floor heating was not working. A call to the reception led them to send an engineer up to take a look. He potted around for a few minutes, before declaring that the under-floor heating and the towel rack was not going to be working tonight, but would be fixed tomorrow, though I could turn up the heat in the bedroom (I'm not sure how this would help with the cold floors in the bathroom though). This story has yet to reach its conclusion, so we shall see what happens tomorrow - stay tuned. | As a reader who has gotten this far, you might ask \"why are you making such a big fuss about under-floor heating?\". Sure, this remains one of the best London hotels I'd stayed at, but this is a hotel that prides itself on being highly-rated and a luxury option in a fantastic location. When you are competing at this echelon, it's the little things that differentiate good from great. People pay good money to stay here, for a certain type of product, and not just simply a bed to rest for the night. I liken this to an airline passenger travelling transcontinental on business class, only to be told his entertainment system isn't working and they've run out of food so he'll have to pick something from economy class - sure, it gets you to your destination all the same, but it isn't quite what you'd paid for.", "Location Of The Reviewer": "Singapore", "Date Of Review": "11\/6\/2014" }, { "Property_Name": "The Savoy", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "Please let me stay...", "Review Text": "From the very moment the car door opened, we entered into an entirely different world.

The staff are very helpful and its great to be in a place just refurbished. I didn't eat in the restaurant and took advantage of the Starbucks in the supermarket next door for my early breakfast. My room was a little small and there was really no space to put anything. The music device provided would be one item that could be removed. I was on the first floor and had difficulty getting to sleep my first two nights due to music I thought was from another room. I then discovered it was the music they played in the lobby and obviously I wasn't the first to complain about it. It ceased to be a problem and hopefully they now shut that down every night. The down lighting over the bathroom sink seems a poor design choice considering its all new. I appreciated the early delivery of the newspaper to my door but they really should tell you up front they will charge you for it. Not a problem as I would have had to go out each morning to get it but it surprised me to see it on the bill at check out.

I've stayed in it many times. You can't beat the Mayfair location right across from Hyde Park. The lobby is lovely and a perfect spot for enjoying a cocktail or beautiful English tea. But now with the dollar at an all time low staying at the Dorchester has become prohibitive. That said, I decided to bite the bullet, and spend the ridiculous sum to stay where I feel most comfortable. For almost three thousand pounds a night I was shown to a \"Dorchester Suite\". It's a little snug (under 800 sq. feet) but very nicely decorated and comfortable. There were fresh flowers and a welcome back note from the manager. Here's why I will not return to the Dorchester: there is a 20 pound charge per day per computer in every room and suite. I was there for seven days. Do the math. I find this ridiculously short sided and tacky. So while in London I visited at least a dozen 5 star hotels to see if I could find a suitable replacement. Truth be told not all the suites I was shown were as beautiful as the suites at the Dorchester. But several were and besides having a considerably lower price NOT ONE OTHER HOTEL CHARGED FOR INTERNET. At the end of my week I checked out of the Dorchester and told the desk clerk that I was not happy about the internet charge. He apologized and said it's a frequent complaint but that management was not willing to change it. He suggested I negotiate the charge on my next visit and they would probably cut the price in half. I asked if he would cut the fee in half this time and he said he couldn't. I thanked him and told him there wouldn't be a next time. After years of loyal patronage this idiotic charge was the straw that broke the camel's back. I have booked my next London visit at the Stafford. For almost a thousand pounds less per night I'm staying in a beautifully decorated suite that is larger than the Dorchester Suite and yes, comes with free internet. It's also in a terrific location and has a fabulously cozy and charming bar and the staff I met could not be nicer.

Check in is simple and a perfect chance to ask if you want anything that you might have forgotten. The key is a card and this is simple but stylish. Wi-fi is available and of course a much needed essential these days. As would be expected the rooms are spacious and provide a welcome place to rest or the like during your visit. I think the attention to detail is essential and in a competitive city like London it does make a difference.

The piano playing and the atmosphere blend together very well indeed,almost like old friends.

My friend had visited before several times and always wanted to show me. Only problem was that now she was in a wheelchair and unable to walk. From the beginning of the visit when the commissionaire unlocked the revolving door to the concierge helping us into a black cab, the service we received was sublime, nothing was too much trouble. On entry we explained to the concierge where we wanted to go and he moved heaven and earth to try and get us there. Another gentleman showed me to my seat, easy enough for an able bodied person. What I didn't see was how my friend was manoevered through kitchens, service lifts, corridors watch. It was obviously not an easy route as it took two or three attempts to get to her destination. Several young men become involved and finally decided that they couldn't actually get her to the American Bar, but could get her to the Beaufort Bar. The problem was that the hotel is a listed building, originally built into the side of a hill. Meanwhile, a lovely young man explained to me the difficulty they were having and escorted me to the other bar. The whole thing took about 20 mins. When we were finally seated, we were treated to a complementary glass of champagne because we could not access the American Bar! We had a lovely evening, gorgeous cocktails and at one point Tom Jones came to the bar! Getting out of the hotel was nowhere near as hard, however we were again cared for by wonderful staff, which was just as well because accessing a normal black London cab was a nightmare. The driver was rude and unhelpful and I could see Teheran hotel staff were not impressed with how he treated us. Nevertheless, the Savoy staff stayed with us, trying their best to help us and finally finding us one of the larger Mercedes black cabs which was perfect for us. So a massive thank you to all the staff that helped us that evening, they certainly went the extra mile and were courteous and friendly, despite the fact we were only visiting and not hotel guests.

That wasn't the end. The following evening, the same problem occurred, a few hours (4pm) after the TV had stopped working. We were told the TV was a whole hotel issue and would be fixed before we got back. We arrived back to the toilet being fixed but no TV. After waking early on the Sunday morning, the TV still wasn't fixed and once again the toilet had stopped working. It was disappointing that these issues had occurred however, I'm sure if we had asked we could have been moved but I have read a similar review about the TV which leads me to believe it's a common problem which needs addressing. At this point I would have given 2-3 stars if it wasn't for Sarah and Aidan in the lower ground bar.

It was in the back, with a walk in shower and had two twin beds which were pushed together to form something like a King but with bedding separating the two beds. | The second night in the room we would spend our vacation is was very good. In the back, with a walk in shower. It was quiet, clean and totally sufficient for both my wife and myself. They have construction next to where my room was but I was never bothered by the construction. I was not prepared for the shower because I have never used a shower that had two handles to control it.

We are members of Fairmont's President's Club, which does mean that little bit extra personal service, but it is exactly that kind of service at many Faimront Hotels that keep us coming back again and again, and how excited we were when they took over the Savoy!! The hotel did have a certain faded elegance, but give me that over such out of keeping renovations as the Waldorf. Plus Fairmont are spending \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdmillions this year, so I am confident anything that needs updating will soon be done. Our room was tastefully decorated, with high ceilings and a nice view from two windows up the Thames towards St Pauls. The size was perhaps not terribly huge, perfectly adequate even with a cot put in the room for our baby daughter. The service whilst at the hotel was great - Ronald at Reception was particularly attentive and engaging, and we chatted to him on checking out about Fairmont's plans. We were slightly disappointed not to have a cocktail in the Thames Foyer before dining out (we were not allowed in the American Bar with our baby) as all tables were reserved - we would know next time to book a table even for cocktails. However we did make a point of having a cocktail on our return, and they did not disappoint. All in all I plan to return - London needs a forward thinking hotel group like Fairmont to take over a Landmark Hotel like the Savoy - landmark hotels are what they do best.

The entire hotel is remarkably beautiful, especially the common areas like the lobby and dining rooms. The guests rooms were also very nice. Recently updated, they were fresh, clean, modern and spacious. My favorite touch was the under vanity lighting that made the way into the bathroom during the night safe.

Exercise area was also very small but frankly, we never used it because we were always out touring. WiFi was slow for the Androids, but seemed to work fine with the Ipads. Housekeeping and room service was excellent. We only had one slight issue with the Savoy. Upon check out, we noticed that we had erroneously been charged over a thousand dollars too much. The Savoy had recommended Yellow Moon to us. We had pre-paid Yellow Moon, at its request, at least three months before our trip. According to Savoy, upon pickup, Yellow Moon had told the Savoy that it had not been paid and to charge us directly. This was obviously a mistake, but because Savoy did not verify prior to charging us we didn't notice until check out. Savoy immediately corrected it's mistake and issued reimbursement to our credit card. Which brings me to really the only criticism of the Savoy. Savoy was marvelous, but we disagree with Savoy's recommendation of Yellow Moon. Yellow Moon is a private tour so more expensive. Unfortunately, it is not a good value for the money in our opinion and based upon our experience. We did several tours while in England and throughout Europe on this trip. Yellow Moon was our least favorite. Yellow Moon didn't simply mess up billing. It messed up timing for the opening of the London Eye and had not even printed out our tickets (we had also paid for tickets for the family and the guide many months in advance).

One of the biggest advantages is it is at close reach of four tibe stations: Goodge Street (really close, just around the corner), Euston Square (close too, at the end of the street), Warren Street (they say it's close though I didn't try it), Russell Square (handy for the British museum though it's a bit more to walk). | The Ridgemount hotel is a family-managed hotel, though they do offer quite a professional service. The older man that stays at the reception is really helpful for anything you may need and the women at the breakfast are good too. | Breakfast: by default guests are given a glass of orange juice and asked if wanting some cereals, I always went straight to the English breakfast, with no cereals. On the plate you will find 1 fried egg + 2 broad slices of bacon + 1 item that changes everyday. For me the item that changed everyday was sausage on Monday, tomato on Tuesday, baked beans on Wednesday. Additional there is always toasts (at will), more free range butter (let me say, it was great, I loved the butter!) and orange jam (very good too). For the drinks: coffee or tea and milk is requested. Also breakfast is included in the price of the room, which in recent years is quite an uncommon thing to find. | Room: just starting to say that I decided for a single room with shared facilities but wasn't sure about it, actually I found it really good. The mattress was ok and new, linens always clean and bed made perfectly. Also the floor was cleaned very well, I could not find any trace of dust anywhere. There was a basin in the room that came just handy. | There were no coffee & tea facilities in the room because they were available in the lounge (see below). | Shared facilities: I thought shared facilities would be a problem, but that wasn't the bathroom I shared with others was actually divided in three small rooms. One with bath tub, toilet and sink, one with toilet and sink, one with shower. It is all clean, used but clean, I never found anything wrong with any of these so that was really positive. Only down I found, the bathroom can get quite cold at night...I didn't see any heater there. | Noise: I did not have any problem with noise coming from the outside, yes the road is just there and you can hear some traffic, but it wasn't bad, nor annoying. Barely heard it. | Another matter is the noise coming from the inside, two main problems there: the floors are carpeted but I think there must be wood underneath because you can clearly hear people walking on the room above yours. It is not a problem, not annoying, and the guests are not noisy, but yes you can hear that. The second problem is when the guests in the room above mine used their sink I'd get some loud noises, that must have been the drain, wasn't very pleasing but happened maybe once in a day so it was ok for me, seen the price. | Heat: as I entered the room the first day, the heater was on. The other days I have never found it on again, I am not sure if that was intentional or not. It wasn't a problem and the room was warm anyways. | Access: when I arrived I was given a key for my room and a key for the front door, with that I had full access 24 hours per day. | Lounge: the lounge at the ground floor is free for the guests to use, there is internet access (not sure if wireless too) through a computer in a corner. Free coffee and tea (machine on the right) and drinks (on the left, not free) a tv, chairs and sofas, books, magazines and leaflets.

It's on the ground floor (=1st floor to us Americans), is CLEAN, roomy (we even have a spare chair :-), and the shower has excellent water force (it doesn't dribble out). I can't emphasize how nice it is to have a clean floor\/carpet that doesn't get your feet dirty when you walk on it. The bathroom is similarly clean tiled so I didn't feel the necessity to wear flip-flops (zori) like I have in some of the places I've stayed! | Because it's in the back of the hotel, we hear very little (no) noise and this particular room doesn't have any rooms adjoining it so the only \"neighbor\" is the room above, and we didn't hear anything from there either.

I did a lot of research prior to making a choice since a week's stay at a 5 star hotel in arguably the world's most expensive city would add an extra column on my Visa statement. | I selected the Dorchester and stayed in a Junior Suite. The front desk staff were extremely friendly and welcoming during check in. I was accompanied to my room and it was large and very beautiful, decorated in stunning authentic art deco style. The construction of the hotel is such that it was considered a safe place to stay for VIPs during the blitz (worthwhile to read Wikipedia on the history of the hotel) and as a result the rooms (or at least the one I stayed in) are the ultimate sanctuary in terms of snuggling under the covers and sleeping soundly. The room did not have a terrace and it faced a beautiful inner courtyard, but also a large bank of ventilation fans. | Although the room was excellent, it was the experience of the hotel itself that is indelible. The lobby, the bars, the restaurants, the general magnificence of the place and above all the service of all levels of staff is the reason you stay at this hotel. | The location of the hotel is excellent. I am a runner and Hyde Park is right across the street, with a traffic light to take you across busy Park Lane and entrance to the park right across the street. It is a 4 mile run around the park, one of the most beautiful runs (or walks) imaginable. All major attractions of central London can be walked to (took me an hour and a half to walk slowly to the Tower Bridge which is the furthest you need to go). Most things are much less than that. Mayfair itself is so nice to come back to after the throngs of central London - and a great pleasure to explore especially in the evening. I love going to the pubs in the evening and there are some amazing pubs in Mayfair. I recommend downloading the \"London's Best Pubs\" App for your phone so that at any time you can hit the \"nearest pub\" button and it will show where you are on the map and the nearest pub and give you all the info. Cool spot five minutes walk from the Dorchester is called the \"Little Square\" with 4 or 5 top notch pubs all next to one another (\"Ye Grapes\" being the most \"memorable\") | The Dorchester has 2 bars and 2 restaurants, and in addition to that has a slightly separate bar&restaurant called China Tang. I did not eat at the 3Mich star Alain Ducasse but I did have breakfast every day in the Promenade (lobby) which is extremely Downton Abbey-esque. The Promenade bar is a beautiful bar open late which serves food as well as \"The Bar\", and China Tang which are all stunning, opulent evening to late night options (also serving food). There are many other boffo bars close by at the Connaught, Four Seasons, Berkely, Claridges and Mandarin Oriental, all within a 15 minute walk (note - none are more opulent than any of the bars at the Dorchester). The service I experienced at all the restaurants and bars at the Dorchester was excellent. Never any attitude and always remembered my name and always very quick, witty and helpful.

What attracted me at that time were the TripAdvisor reviews about it that spoke of the incredible location coupled with a very friendly set of owners and their staff - a very important thing to me as I usually am traveling alone on business - all for an incredible price considering that it is in the middle of one of the most expensive cities in the world! | Since 2007, I am guessing that I have visited The Rhodes about 18 times - some visits as long as a week and some as short as 2 nights. | As you can see, I'm sold on The Rhodes and I rate it very highly. | I was back there last December for 4 nights and then back last month for 2 nights - again feeling very pampered all the way. | The staff were very helpful in getting us into our rooms as early as possible after we arrived - which was 9:30 AM right after we got off an overnight, transatlantic flight from Toronto. Although check-in is not until mid-afternoon, they knew that we had slept in our clothes on the plane and we needed showers and a change of clothes - and a short nap. (They can't always do that for guests since they depend on when the current guests check out but they sure give it their best try.) | Breakfast: I LOVE breakfast at The Rhodes. I am typically a light breakfast eater but I really like how I can serve myself of a wide selection of breads, jams, cereals, fresh fruits, (great) coffee - and, for a tiny extra fee, get a full British cooked breakfast ... all served up by one of the owners, Chris, whose outgoing personality warms up the room and makes you feel really welcome. (A couple of TA guests have commented that the breakfast room is less than desirable since it is compact and on the lower level - I love the coziness of this room. Its welcoming colours remind me of my country kitchen back home.) | The location is the best: one block from Paddington Station (where the Heathrow Express brings me in in 15 minutes from Heathrow and where FOUR Underground lines meet!) and one block from Lancaster Gate Station on the Central Underground line (this may sound a bit redundant but you will see that it is very helpful to have such a wide choice of tube lines depending on where you are heading in London). Also, one block from the north edge of Kensington Gardens (Hyde Park) - home of the Princess Diana Memorial Fountain. | The rooms: I have stayed in many different rooms - both in the main building and in the Annex (only a 2.5 minute walk away...). They are all different and, by our spoiled North American standards, generally on the smaller side. I have never, however, been unhappy with a room. (When I have been silly enough to wait until that last minute to book, I expect to get the smallest room in the place... but, even then, it works!) The rooms are always very clean, the bathrooms are all newly renovated and very modern - and shower pressure is very satisfying...). Everything always works in the room - the AC\/Heat, the WI-Fi, the satellite TV (I LOVE watching BBC late at night when I get back to my hotel...) and the tea\/coffee service is always there and well stocked. I can't remember if all my rooms have had a small fridge (since I don't use it) but I believe so. (Also, I have noticed a recent review about \"those terrible basement rooms\". I have stayed in those \"terrible basement rooms\" and have not found them to be 'terrible\". The ones that I have stayed in have all had decent sized windows, albeit smaller than the upper rooms that look out onto Sussex Gardens and I found the room size and quality equal to other rooms that I have stayed in upstairs. (The unfortunate use of the word, \"basement\", conjures up a terrible picture but the \"basement\" level of The Rhodes is a actually a busy level with lots of guests coming and going to the breakfast dinning room.)) | The price: You are staying in a hotel in the middle of London - one of the greatest (and most expensive - cities in the world. I love their prices and will continue to return again and again. | Lifts; Well .... there aren't any. I know this in advance (and now, you do too!) and, since I have a bit of a bum knee, I always ask for a ground floor room. If I have booked far enough in advance, I can always get one - usually 2 - 3 weeks in advance is enough depending on what time of year I am booking into. The staff ALWAYS offers to carry my luggage to my room, no matter what time I am checking in or what room I am going in to - they are great. | Staff helpfulness & knowledge about London: Since I have been to London enough times in the past 5 years to call it my 2nd home, I don't need much from them in that department. However, I have watched as they have advised other guests and I have observed them being very knowledgeable and helpful. Tickets to many London attractions are available at the Front Desk. | ... and to prove that I really believe that The Rhodes is excellent .....

Upon check-in we received a complimentary upgrade from a Superior Room to a Deluxe Room. Check-in was quick and very efficient. One of the team members showed us the hotel facilities and then guided us to our room. Once again very friendly and professional. After an introduction to the in-room services and different lighting options, we could explore everything by ourselves. The room was lovely, we really liked the interior design, warm colors, high-quality products and the huge bathroom (bath tube with TV, walk-in rain forest shower). | A true highlight was the lovely cake surprise on our dining table plus a hand written congratulations card. We felt so spoiled! The first impressions of the Corinthia could't be better! | We stayed for two nights on the weekend and therefore also wanted to try out the hotel's own spa (ESPA). I have to say it's one of the best spas I have ever visited - and I have been in many luxurious spas all around the world! The thermal floor is free for hotel guests and you will find everything you need - steam room (works absolutely perfect - hotels often underestimate how hard it is to install a proper one), sauna, swimming pool, relax areas and even a jacuzzi pool. The design is amazing. We used the spa a couple of times and I have to say it is added value to the hotel stay. | We also tried out room-service (dinner and breakfast) and the quality of food was always very good. The Corinthia's fish and chips come are among the best I have ever had! Only issue was that someone must have forgotten the butter for our breakfast delivery. This problem was solved quickly after a phone call. The butter was brought up to our room within 5 minutes. | Another exceptional surprise was that the hotel was in touch with the restaurant manager of Berners Tavern (romantic restaurant in London). We had a reservation for Saturday evening and it was all great! We have been surprised by a complimentary dessert and the congratulations of the staff members. | The Corinthia did fantastic work during our stay. Service and the great facilities make a difference!

Neither my fianc\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd heard this explanation. Luckily there were standard rooms available and we switched back. What we felt was that while the property was lovely many of the staff members with the exception of the concierge, acted like it was a privilege for us to be staying there from the reservations manager to the wait staff.

The hotel upgrade and face-lift are definitely improvements. | If you don't want to read any further then all that you need to know is that the hotel is a first-class British establishment, more of a national treasure than a hotel. | The details: | Arrival was a good experience: no need to visit a reception desk. We were met by someone who expected us and escorted to our room without delay. And this is all the more surprising and worth mentioning because, when we were shown our room, we were politely informed that the card to which had we had charged our room had been declined. How polite to be trusted that this was only a minor problem, which it was (our card company only wanted assurance that no one was staying at the Savoy at our expense). | We stayed five nights. During that time we were unable to gain access to the American Bar. We can understand that visiting the American Bar is a sought-after experience by many, but we were disappointed to find a queue each evening, and it seems that residents do not get any special treatment over those who walk in from the Strand. We didn't get a chance to try it. Not a complaint as such, just somewhat of a disappointment. Perhaps a ploy to make us return: surely something could have been done to allow access on even one evening. | The new Beaufort Bar, however, is a good substitute for the American Bar. On our visit, on a Saturday evening, we gained access only because we were residents. I doubt we would have gained entrance had we walked in off the street. They had BAFTA-themed cocktails, it being BAFTA weekend, and we sampled a few. Lovely place. Black is hard on interior decorators, but the Savoy has succeeded. Great for people-watching, if you go in for that sort of thing. Lively piano playing and accompanying singing. Good nuts. | No problems with our room whatsoever. Clean. Very clean. Good housekeeping. Didn't like having to pay extra for Internet access: it's the 21st century after all. This needs attended to (it should be free). When one pays \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd40 for two glasses of champagne one doesn't expect to pay \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd10 to check emails. Seems cheapskate and not at all what the Savoy should be about. | We had one meal at the Grill Room. It is very good indeed. It would be a catastrophe if it wasn't. The Omelette Arnold Bennett is excellent. Some restaurant reviews have indicated that the Grill Room is good but not great. They are wrong. It is. Be sure to make your reservation before you arrive. Great wine list. | A sensible attitude to dress standards: not at all demanding and a recognition that some guests, such as us, are out shopping and visiting the sights of London all day. If anyone finds that they are refused service because they aren't dressed suitably they they probably deserve it. But if anyone thinks that other guests aren't dressed smartly enough then they are probably pretentious creeps or rapscallions. | We didn't have an opportunity to visit the River Room restaurant but it did seem well worth a visit.

As good as any I've had at a 5 star hotel. Recently recommended this place to some relatives after they were displeased with the Bulgari Knightsbridge and so thought I'd finally do a quick review. | I stayed here for two nights to break up an otherwise 10 day stay at the Mandarin Oriental, London. I basically chose it for the design and it's newness on the London scene. | Two things that have stuck out in my mind is how perfectly boutique and exclusive it always felt. I think it's almost in it's own league in London with maybe the Halkin semi comparable. | Secondly the design I was expecting to wow me but the service was just exceptional. Amongst the best I've had in London. They didn't make an unnatural amount of fuss about things, it was always discreet but very attentive and professional. Fantastic. Just as I want it. | It felt very modern both in terms of the type of clientele staying and in terms of the technology and fit out, but it was also extremely sophisticated and individual in it's design and technology choices. | I loved the size and lay out of my room (which was one of the \"cheapest\"). It was spacious for any city, let alone London where even a 5 star room can be a shoe box. But as others are pointing out there is a high level of contemporaneity to all the details such as bang and olufsen, underfloor heating, exquisite joinery, lighting design, window casings etc. I would say all this is done over and above the average London luxury standard. Certainly for modern hotels. If you are drawn in by the pictures and interior decor then you will love it in person as all the detailing is there. | And I have to say despite other hotels having similar \"style\" I still find that this particular version of art deco luxe combined with the park views very refreshing for London. All the modern greatness without the character loss you can get when you leave the grand dame hotels of London. | My only concern booking was the park lane address (traffic and such) but there was nothing to complain of in reality. I still don't like walking up park lane but you can just cut in and go up the back streets to mount st and knightsbridge...or take a car.

Unsatisfied with the lacklustre experience at the Dorchester bar (which I can't really fault apart from the feeling that I get of being a social pariah by dining alone), I decided I wanted to find another place to waste time and squander money whilst reading about the world and having lunch along with drinking copious amounts of green tea, why does this have to be so difficult! | Thank God on that dreary late December 2012 afternoon I discovered 11 Knightsbridge, also now known as The Wellesley. Only just officially opened that day, I was thus lucky enough to be able to have it all to myself (at least so I thought I would the following day). After having a browse and sneak peek by the amazing staff, I cancelled my 4 consecutive bookings at the Dorchester and decided to give this hotel my full attention. | This dreamy hotel was first mentioned in 2010 as an aspirant to becoming London's first 6 star hotel. Its history is quite interesting indeed. Formerly a tube station serving and called \"Hyde Park Corner station\", built in 1906 by iconic architect Leslie Green (who's handiwork is still evident with the lovely ox blood red tiles as seen on the facade's ground floor level), it was put out of service as a tube station in the 1930s, Thereafter a townhouse was built atop. It's most famous residents (prior to it's stunning new tenants of course) was the Pizza on the Park, which yes was a posh version of Pizza Express, however the real action happened downstairs, which is where London's most iconic jazz and cabaret acts were conducted for nearly 30 years. Sadly they closed with the hotel's development in June 2010, however the hotel has a nightly jazz performance inside the aptly named \"jazz room\", which seems a nice gesture to the loss of that venue. | With a reported \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd36 million spent on its redevelopment, the owners have not left a stone untouched in creating a sumptuous place of pure luxury. Being two doors away from one of London's finest hotels, The Lanesborough, this \"new kid\" in the extremely well heeled Knightsbridge will have to work very hard to compete against this prestigious and graceful property. And work hard they did. | Being a 36 room hotel mainly comprising of suites (29 to be precise), it does have a small number of \"normal\" rooms, however this hotel is more about being decadent (and happily so). Its largest suite is located on the sixth floor (I can't be sure if it's on the fifth and sixth to be precise) and is arguably London's largest (and one of the most expensive) at that. Having looked online at the pictures and the in hotel brochure, I could only drool, as each room and suite was so beautifully appointed I wished I could stay here myself (sadly being a Londoner doesn't afford me that option - unless my house is under renovation, rendering it uninhabitable can I then make that excuse ) | Inside it's super luxe, not usual on the London scene. Housing a stunning art deco corridor, marble galore as to be expected, it has one cosy restaurant called Oval which is absolutely gorgeous (with its approximately 28 covers). It also has London's largest bespoke humidor, with cigar prices starting from a nice \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd20 to an eye watering \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd2,000, and a crystal bar, very beautiful indeed. For me, its piece de resistance is an outside heated \"cigar\" lounge. I prefer to call it a lounge as I don't smoke but it didn't bother me if smokers did. There are two of these on either side of the entrance and again this is definitely a super luxurious experience, with lovely roaring fire, 4 teak chairs to a table (no booking ever required, how lovely). I came here and ate lunch and had green tea on many an afternoon, and it was so perfect. | You will notice the leather used on the chairs in the lounge, and to fashion the wall, is crocodile and ostrich skin respectively. Thankfully these are faux, and quite rightly so, I would hazard to think what it would cost to replace a damaged chair if it wasn't. | I was really hoping that I would refrain from writing a review about The Wellesley on Trip Advisor , but in the end I felt it would be a real disservice to Londoners if I didn't. It is one of London's true gems of a hotel, not many places have outdoor spaces that are private but still retain the hustle and bustle of London life (the roar of supercars and London's endless buses can be heard while you luxuriate in splendour). | One small problem I kindly request the management to address is the strong whiff of cigar\/ cigarette odour and stale air in the lobby and adjoining interior areas caused by the two cigar lounges. I didn't notice this when I went again in mid Jan 2013, so it may have been fixed, but this needs to be put in order immediately, as having to passively smoke is not a luxurious experience at all, and not one that goes with the entire hotel ethos. | However, this is a brand new hotel, only been open for nearly a month, and I have full faith this will be addressed swiftly.

The hotel was recommended by a friend who takes his family there regularly. We also read the reviews on tripadvisor.com. After much thought, we booked ajoining Executive Rooms (hotel has several different types of rooms, the executive being the most expensive). These are some of the nicest hotel rooms we've stayed in. The Executive rooms and bathrooms were huge. The bathrooms had marble and granite throughout. The tubs were deep and the shower pressure strong. Everything was exceptionally clean. The rooms also have a mini-fridge which came in handy. Our rooms were recently upgraded and the hotel was in the process of doing other rooms during our stay. As we were a family travelling, we enjoyed having the two rooms ajoining. We were on the 6th floor, facing away from the street, so we heard almost no noise whatsoever. The rooms were a bit warm, but we could open the windows which adjusted the temperature just fine. I must mention the location--the Rembrandt is situated between two tube stops and within walking distance of parks, museums, and Harrods! We often would stop at Harrods on the way home just to pick up some snack at the Food Court. The South Ken. neighborhood is posh, to say the least, and we had a lot of fun just walking around the neighborhoods. We found the hotel staff very nice and helpful. Our breakfast was included and was more than adequate. The breakfast room is large, with tall windows looking out onto the beautiful S. Ken neighborhood. The buffet offered many choices for US and european travelers. Hot tea and coffee were offered immediately and we leisurely ate our breakfast every morning while planning our daily activities. We only had a few minor issues during our 10 day stay. Our check-in didn't go as smoothly as we had hoped--our original rooms were not available when we we arrived (11:30am), nor at checked in (3:00), as a guest decided to stay an extra day. So for the first night we stayed in different rooms (Superior room-- nice, but smaller than the Executive) and then we moved to our Executive rooms the next night. The hotel compensated us for this inconvenience. Also, it was important to put the \"do not disturb\" sign on the door if you wished to sleep past 8:00 am, as the maids were anxious to clean rooms as soon as possible (maids were very sweet & nice).

My review will be quite lengthy for those of you who wish to read it in its entirety. If not, all I have to say is Stay at the Rhodes Hotel, you will not be disappointed. | My husband and I (38 & 40) were finishing up our 5-city tour through Europe with 2 nights at the Rhodes Hotel. After being in 4 hotels the last weeks previous and having travelled extensively, I would say I am a good judge. | I booked the hotel via email with Maria, providing my credit card info. The price was right and the location seemed okay being our first trip to London. | The hotel is located a short 5\/6 minute walk from the Paddington Tube Station. This location is great as there are 3 tube lines (Bakerloo, Central and District) which get you easily (with no transfers) to the main tourist attractions ... London Eye, Westminster Abbey, Piccadilly, etc. Right behind the Hotel is Hyde Park which is absolutely lovely to stroll through with ponds, animals, statues and a nice little cafe to have lunch. The area has a ton of little pubs, shops, restaurants, a pharmacy and \"take out\" places ... everything you need within a 5 minute walk. | We arrived early on our first day, my husband coming down with a cold, we decided to take the hop-on-hop-off Big Bus Tour (red double-decker that takes you around London) without too much effort. The Big Bus \"stop\" is a 4-minute walk and can\/will eventually take you full circle if you stay on. Maria booked the tour for us, gave us a pamphlet\/map and described the tour in detail to us. She is fabulous. | Our room had all the comforts you would have at home ... clean, spacious for London, comfy bed & pillows, hair dryer, TV, small kettle with fixings for coffee & tea in the morning, body wash in the shower, a small refrigerator (which 1out of 4 hotels had in the previous weeks). This is huge plus in my mind as you can keep water, beverages, fruit, etc. Our room also had a terrace with table and chairs ...which was lovely in the warm weather. A smoking by-law passed this past summer so smoking is not allowed in London hotels any longer. | The following day my husband's health worsened and he wanted to go to emergency. St. Mary's Hospital is right around the corner but he felt to weak to walk so Maria drove us! | He was diagnosed with pneumonia and the doctors stated he would have to be there for several days. This was really unfortunate for us as we were supposed to fly back to Canada the next day. | Once back at the hotel, I told Maria the situation and due to it being a very busy tourist season she said she would do her best to accommodate me. During my entire visit I stayed in 4 different rooms as I moved to whatever was available. A couple of the rooms were renovated and couple were not, but they were all incredibly clean, had the same amentias, except maybe newer bathroom fixtures, a funky mirror or wall shelf. Maria gave me a small discount, which I really appreciated. Chris and Maria were a godsend in this tough situation. Being a stranger in a strange town they did everything they could to make me feel comfortable. I ate my take out dinner in the lobby a few nights, chatting with them and the other hotel guests, it helped to keep my mind off things. | Once my husband was released for bed rest for a few more days, Chris had a \"thank you lunch\" for his return which he prepared ... thank you lunch for us? THANK YOU Chris and Maria for everything! | Other things to note: | Hotel is deceivingly small from the outside. There are 5 flights to climb to the rooms on the top - 86 stairs in all - I was fine, but others may complain. They will help with your bag(s) if need be. | | There is free Internet in the lower level for all the hotel guests to use. There is also a connection in all the rooms. | The continental breakfast was the best I had over the weeks, available from 7-10am ... Coffee, tea, fresh croissants, warm toast, butter, jams, ham, cheese, yogurt, cereal, whole fruit. AND for only 3 GBP more Chris or one of his staff will make you a hot breakfast of your choice. Eggs anyway, bacon, sausage, grilled tomatoes, beans, were all available English Breakfast ... delicious! Chris even made a toasted egg sandwich for me to bring to my husband in the hospital one day! | On the 2nd floor of the hotel there is small library of books that guests take and leave for their reading pleasure. | Yes, they are currently undergoing a few renovations, room-by-room ... but by no means is it obtrusive, they are keeping the disruptions to a minimum and it didn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt bother me. There were guests I met that have been coming twice a year for 15 years and others that were staying for weeks a time. Everyone loved it as it feels like a home away from home. | I must mention too that on the Friday night before we were to fly home the Hotel was full ... Maria apologized profusely but they were booked solid. She called around to a few hotels she knew of in the area but everyone was booked up. We found a place across the street on the corner called WestPoint Hotel, which we stayed for the same reasonable price, which included breakfast. But it was nothing like the Rhodes. It had a big pretentious fountain in the lobby, the rooms were so small there was no floor space to lie your suitcase down. The TVs were ceiling mounted with no remote (unless you paid a 10 GBP deposit). The bathrooms were so small you couldn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt sit straight on the toilet without your knees crushed into the sink. And unfortunately I cannot comment on breakfast as it was served from 7-8am only and we had to leave prior to 7:00am to catch our flight. | Our family, friends and travel agent were very impressed and grateful with the hospitality Chris & Maria gave us. It is rare to find this hospitality in strangers, even in the hospitality industry \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd they are \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdsalt of the earth\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd people, and the kind of people you will never forget. We have given out the Rhodes Hotel contact information to many. | In summary, I know my review is long with unusual circumstances but if you are looking for a hotel\/B&B that is clean, quaint, comfortable, easy on the pocket book, in a great location and run by lovely people ... look no further than the Rhodes Hotel ... reserve before its booked solid \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdyou will love it and it will be your home away from home!", "Location Of The Reviewer": "Toronto, Ontario", "Date Of Review": "11\/1\/2007" }, { "Property_Name": "Rhodes Hotel", "Review Rating": 3, "Review Title": "Subpar customer service-terrible check in", "Review Text": "I stayed at Rhodes Hotel for 2 nights just this past weekend while visiting London for the first time.

While my actual stay was fine, I wish I could give this place 5 stars but I simply cannot because my check in experience was miserable. | I arrived around 11:30am and proceeded to check in and pay my balance (booked through expedia and the hotel charged the first night as a deposit). The receptionist asked if I wanted to pay in my local currency which was USD. I promptly said NO, knowing that they would charge their own conversion fee and make money off the transaction. Getting ahead of himself and probably expecting me to be an idiot traveler and say yes, he charged my card in USD. I was not happy and in turn he voided the transaction, then charged me again in GBP. I was pretty annoyed because the voided funds were immediately debited from my account and no longer available which is a huge financial inconvenience. The receptionist was not very apologetic and seemed rather nonchalant about it. It was no big deal to him because it wasn't his money. Now, 5 days later, the funds are still unavailable and have not been returned to my account. I'm still traveling and would really like that money! Very inconvenient and should have never happened in the first place. I will dispute the charge with my US bank if it is not credited back by end of the week. My second grievance with check in is a bit more minor but again didn't leave a positive impression on me. I waited for about 45min for the room to become available and when it finally was, I proceeded to gather my things and head up. I was told by the same guy who incorrectly charged me that he would bring my backpack up. There is no lift and it is several flights. I say fine and head up to my room. I'm waiting for about 15min in the room for my things before I just say screw it then I head downstairs. This guy is still chatting with the same woman he had been chatting with and having a personal conversation with while I sat in the lobby waiting. Complete disregard for my bag he said he'd bring up. That wasn't priority. Mind you, no one else was checking in at that time and I was the only person waiting in the lobby for a room. As soon as he saw me \"oh, I'm sorry\". I say forget it, I'm trying to shower and go sightseeing, I'll take my own bag, I don't have time wait on you. | Basically, if you don't mind subpar customer service and the chance that you'll be charged twice, by all means stay at Rhodes. I liked the room and location but customer service is equally as important to me and the fact that I stayed there 5 days ago and still show two charges on my account is unacceptable. I would caution travelers to make it a point and be explicit early on about the currency to be charged in. If charged in your local currency it will cost more. I won't be staying at Rhodes again the next time I find myself in London.

This hotel was full of many pleasant surprises from the beginning. We landed in London very early, around 6:30 am and got to the hotel around 9am. On our arrival we found out that we could do an early and free check in, plus we were given an upgrade to a delux room! This certainly made our day much nicer and pleasant as we did not have to wander the streets of London until the afternoon, waiting for our room to be ready. The room itself was always spotless. Besides a little defect in the shower door, which did not completely close, it was very well kept and was very, very spacious. We did not have any special view from our window but at least we faced the street, which is very quiet on the weekend. Although, we are not necessarily affected by noise from the outside, we did find that the street being so quiet may be something that a lot of people staying here will appreciate. We opted to have breakfast in the hotel every morning and we were pleased by the food's nice quality and ample selection. Although, our reservation stated we would have a daily English breakfast, we were given the option to have whatever other things we wished from the menu --another nice touch! In regards to the staff, everyone was incredibly polite and helpful and made us feel very welcomed. I will say though, that I wasn't particularly excited about this hotel's location. Although, you are a short tube ride away from all the major attractions, the area around the hotel is pretty much deserted and lacking of interesting places to visit (other than St Paul's cathedral, maybe). I suppose this is not a major flaw but if you want to be in the middle of all of London's excitement, I would suggest to look elsewhere. Also, keep in mind that getting to\/from London Gatwick may be a long way and you will need plenty of time and\/or money to get there. It's not so bad from Heathrow, especially if you use the Heathrow express to Paddington and then a taxi to the hotel (like we did). As feedback for the hotel I think that the wifi needs major improvements as it had very poor reception in the room and only a so, so reception and speed in the restaurant. I'd say that if you are looking for a decent hotel in London that doesn't empty your entire bank account to pay for one night, and if you don't care much about Hotel amenities and excitement, then this is your hotel.

They typically stay at the Ritz when in London, but as I adore having drinks at the Savoy and find the refurbished d\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdcor extremely beautiful, I persuaded them to try the Savoy instead. I had fully expected it to be my favourite hotel in London; regrettably, though the style is indeed stunning and the bars second to none, I was saddened to discover the service they received hardly worthy of five-star status, let alone a name as illustrious as the Savoy\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds. | | The Savoy betrayed from the beginning a surprising lack of attention to the small nuances that make a truly world-class hotel. Though my parents were celebrating their thirty-fifth wedding anniversary and I had mentioned this before they arrived, this went completely unnoticed by the staff. The five-star hotels they had stayed at in France prior to arriving in London had both upgraded their room and provided champagne and flowers; though one cannot expect such generosity as a matter of course, one would expect at least a welcome note, or a nod from reception at check-in to acknowledge the occasion and wish them all the best. Instead, they received not the merest mention of the occasion--perhaps far from an irremediable sin, but nonetheless surprising given that I have received better, more welcoming service from far smaller, less grand hotels. | | If that marked a disappointing beginning, the true nadir of service was that provided by a member of their concierge called David. The man\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds disposition was chilly at best, never betraying any hint of welcome or service. And at worst he was appallingly rude to my mother, something that is inexcusable at a five-star hotel. When she mentioned a restaurant she had enjoyed in Soho the evening before, he had the nerve to reply by saying distastefully, \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdOh, Soho is the red light district in London, filled with gays and sex shops.\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd | | Now, I would argue this is not an appropriate way for anyone to speak to a middle-aged woman, let alone a five-star concierge. Yet it further betrays a pretty shocking amount of bigotry and lack of knowledge. The restaurant we went to was Michelin-starred; the food and service is exquisite. If he could not bring himself to be polite, he ought at least to have known that. Moreover, it was a ten minute walk from the hotel. I hate to think what it says about the Savoy if a mere ten minute\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds walk brings its guest to what is apparently a den of iniquity best to be avoided. | | Moreover, my mother was not asking for general advice about Soho or his opinion of the area. If this man is a bigot and prefers to stay away from areas that feature some gay bars and pubs, that is his prerogative (though might be inconvenient considering the biggest gay club in London is just down the street from the Savoy)\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdyet he ought also to recognise that Soho is a thriving place filled with every sort of bar and restaurant, and not force his own prejudices on his guests. It seems common sense to me that though some guests might not like Soho, others might enjoy a Michelin-starred meal in a generally vibrant part of town that is a short walk from the hotel. Never mind the fact that surely some guests at the Savoy happen to be gay, in which case dismissing an entire part of the city due to the presence of some gay establishments is rather abominable in my view, particularly in this day and age. | | To denigrate my mother and a dinner she had genuinely enjoyed in this fashion was extremely offensive\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdit clearly upset my mother, who had only been trying to express she had enjoyed a nice evening, and had certainly not expected to be made to feel embarrassed over it. | | I have never encountered such flagrantly rude service from staff at any hotel in which I have been a guest. To encounter it at the Savoy is simply insane, and speaks most eloquently as to why my parents left feeling deeply ambivalent about the place, and why it is unlikely they will be returning despite the hotel\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds beauty and good location. | | Though it was the offensiveness of David the concierge that most deeply upset us, it is also worth noting that there were several problems with the room as well, ranging from large black scuff marks on the wall and ceiling (please see the attached photos), an electrical outlet that did not work, and a mirror in the bathroom that was broken when my parents arrived and then broken again by the maid after the hotel had sent someone to fix it. Though to their credit the hotel did eventually move to address these problems\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdthough not by moving my parents to a different room; I should note that they gave me assurances they would do this, and then never followed through on it, another indefensible failing from a hotel of this class\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdnone of this is indicative of a true five-star hotel. Though these details might otherwise have merited overlooking, coupled with the outright offensive service received from David, they speak to serious problems inherent in the hotel. | | Ultimately, the Savoy is five-star in beauty, style, and atmosphere, yet two or three star for service. This is inexcusable at this price range. Having said that, I should mention that their doormen and the staff in their bars and restaurants were absolutely faultless, and thankfully saved the experience for my parents to some degree. In the bars and restaurants, one finds staff who are impeccably trained, courteous, and wonderful. And there were other members of their reception and concierge who were very polite and helpful. If only every member of the hotel staff offered service of a similar quality. | | For service to equal the name, I would recommend potential guests try the Ritz or Claridge's, hotels which offer truly exemplary service to match their elegant surroundings.

I said OK, but they also wanted to take another \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd30 incase I used anything from the minibar. I declined and said I would rather pay for what I use as I use it, which they were fine with. The first problem occurred because their card machine would not work, so I spent 10 minutes waiting for their system to let me pay. | I asked if everything would be ready for the room as I had paid extra for a romantic package of Prosecco on ice in the room, accompanied by a box of chocolates and rose petals. Also I was told upon booking that they would have a card saying happy birthday to my fiancee (who's name I gave and spelled out over the phone). They said everything was ready so we went up to the room. | THE ROOM | Initial impressions of the Superior Double room, were that it was very nice and clean. The bathroom which I had requested to have a freestanding bath was lovely, one of the nicest bathrooms I've seen in a hotel (apart from The Arch which had a TV in the bath with a rain shower above). | Unfortunately once getting out of the bath, I noticed there was dry, chipped paint coming off from above the bath, which kind of ruined how nice it was. Again, not worth \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd281 per night. | The TV was a large screen LCD, unfortunately quite old and with a poor picture. Compared to the Bang and Olufsen TV at the South Place hotel only 5 mins walk away, this was very poor. The same thing applied to the Bose iPhone\/iPod dock.....that only had an old Apple 30 Pin connection. They should be up to date enough to have lightning connection docks in 2015 since they have been around for at least 2 years now. This was another thing that made me regret paying \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd281 for the night. | There was as requested, a bottle of prosecco in an ice bucket, perfect....so I thought. Unfortunately when my fiancee picked up her card off the bed, what was supposed to read Dear Chanel........happy birthday eat, read Dear Mr Harrison! I specifically read out and spelled out her name over the phone when booking, but obviously the staff did not bother reading the notes about my reservation. The next thing was at the bottom of the card it said in broken english something about having a good day Will!!!. My name is not Will, and my fiancee's name is certainly not Will. Who is Will??? I do not know. To finish off, there were also no rose petals. This was an extra package I paid for, and it was not complete. | I went to speak with the hotel reception and spoke to who I think may have been the manager. He was very nice, very apologetic and offered 2 free drinks at the bar. I did accept this, however I feel that the errors should really have not been allowed to happen, as my fiancee was quite upset and I was a little angry that I had tried to make things nice for her and unfortunately relied on this hotel to arrange things, yet, they had not done what was asked, and paid for. | THE BAR | The bar staff were excellent, very friendly, exceptionally helpful, but unfortunately cannot make good cocktails. I have had cocktails all over the world and at many hotels in London, but the drinks at Off the Wall were not good. Rather than make a fuss and complain, we let it slide and gave them another chance, but the cocktails were just not good at all, worst were the Mojito's which were watery, with no sugar at all, too much lime and far too much mint (leaves). Every Mojito I have ever drunk has had brown sugar at the bottom, which takes away the bitter and sour tastes of some of the alcohol but most importantly the lime. There was no sugar and any of the at least 3-4 mojito's we drank there. | THE RESTAURANT | BREAKFAST | The breakfast was not bad, full english. It was a fair size although I have had better portions. The bacon was terrible, like plastic and impossible to cut, as well as being completely tasteless. The poached eggs were fine, beans were nice and black pudding was not bad. | I also had a pan au chocolate which was very nice, it was warm and the chocolate was melting inside. My fiancee had a fruit selection plate, which was also very good, lots of fruit that seemed fresh. | DINNER | After checking out and spending the day in London shopping, we returned to collect our bags, but decided to get something to eat as we were so hungry. We decided to eat at the restaurant in the hotel. We had the set menu which included a glass of wine (red or white), and a starter, main and desert. All the food was very, very good. Delicious and good portions. Well worth the \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd25 per person charge. I just wish the room had been worth the \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd281 I paid. | OTHER POINTS | I am allergic to feather pillows, so asked to have something else (despite not being asked as I checked in). They told me they would sort something out, so about 45 mins to an hour later someone knocked at the door. The guy was very apologetic that they only had a small square pillow in the entire hotel that was not feather!!! Really????? | At other hotels upon arrival and check in I am often asked what sort of pillows I would like and most hotel I stay in offer a memory foam pillow (to accompany a memory foam mattress), but not the London Wall hotel obviously. | Ultimately I quite regret booking the hotel and paying the \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd281 for the night. I don't feel it was worth it at all and would really like to get some money back as I thought overall the room and stay was worth no more than \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd80 or so. If they updated the TV, repainted the bathroom, put a new Bose Dock in the room, had memory foam mattresses and pillows, and also READ THE NOTES on their system, I would have been happy to pay the \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd281.", "Location Of The Reviewer": null, "Date Of Review": "9\/21\/2015" }, { "Property_Name": "The Savoy", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "", "Review Text": "() | | | ", "Location Of The Reviewer": "Tokyo, Japan", "Date Of Review": "7\/8\/2012" }, { "Property_Name": "Mondrian London at Sea Containers", "Review Rating": 4, "Review Title": "Chic, good location, but I'm getting too old to see in the dark!", "Review Text": "We stayed at the hotel for three nights taking advantage of their 'stay three nights pay for two' offer.

Having just opened 2 to 3 weeks ago, I was fortunate to have already been twice for completely different reasons. The first, for a meeting in one of the grand suites of a guest and the second was a return visit for Saturday afternoon tea. | On both occasions, one is first welcomed by the ubiquitous doormen who gallantly ensure the doors are beckoning to you to enter into its sumptuous lobby. Once inside a further welcome is extended by an attentive public relations lady who I presume is there to ensure guests are not left guessing if it is their first visit there, as it were. \"45\" has been decorated in sharp slick modern form, with sufficient wood such that the final effect is clean and interesting, but still presenting a warm ambience which can be rare in many of the new establishments today. There are large relaxing leather sofas and armchairs in deep red and mustard, complementing the darker wood panelling, which abounds both downstairs in the lobby and restaurant area, as well as in the mezzanine bar and library area. Cut, which is the restaurant on the ground floor flows directly from the lobby and is exec chef-ed by Wolfgang Puck from the US. The rooms are similarly decked out and deliver a contemporary feel which remains fresh at the same time. | Its worth mentioning another overriding feature of 45, which is the use of expansive wooden screens which appear to simulate huge over sized and immovable Venetian blinds, made from the same wood as the ubiquitous wood panelling. Given 45's large wall to wall glass windows, this is used to create a separation from the immediate hustle and bustle of the Park Lane traffic, as well as from the mezzanine floor which overlooks the lobby. | We were served tea and cocktails in the small library upstairs after looking round the lobby and bar areas as we felt this to be the cosiest sitting area, with a small drawing room feel. This little area is dominated by a large television screen in the middle of in-built book shelves either side, with a discreet modern \"single line\" fire place below it.

The room is well insulated in rich embroidered wallpaper and the 138 inch screen is apparently a Bang and Olufsen television, the largest in Europe, and custom made for 45. All \"mod cons\" seem to have been catered for and the room feels appropriately plush. | Back to tea and cocktails which were both well executed and whilst I had an Assam the cocktail was a rose tinted \"Forbidden Kiss\" delivered from the bar which is just further along on the same level. We had a relaxing time overall in what was a slick and contemporary boutique hotel, and with great service, which was attentive and un-intrusive as well as being gracious.

Anche il bagno davvero niente male: doccia grande e spaziosa e sanitari confortevoli, manca solo il bidet come in molti hotel inglesi. Cambio odierno di asciugamani e salviette. Il pezzo forte di questo hotel e senza dubbio il servizio, il personale era sempre pronto a riverirci e coccolarci e quando avevamo bisogno di qualcosa, questi erano sempre disponibili e sorridenti (ad esempio la sera non sapevamo dove andare a cenare, e i gestori ci consigliavano sempre e ci davano locandine e indicazioni). \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd stato uno dei pochi hotel dove sono stato dove ogni nostro desiderio veniva esaudito all'istante. Un lato negativo da tener presente: la sala per le colazioni \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd piccolissima e stretta, purtroppo delle volte sei costretto ad aspettare qualcun altro che liberi il tavolo prima di poterla fare. Comunque, anche durante la colazione, il personale era sempre a nostra disposizione e pronto ad esaudire le nostre richieste. Hotel bellissimo, ho passato quattro giorni a Londra fantastici.

Obviously we were very excited about this and were prepared for a once in a lifetime experience. When we drove up to the hotel there were lots of staff there to greet us and we were whisked to our room where the check-in paperwork was completed. We were in one of the art deco style rooms which was very comfortable and beautifully decorated. Our 9 year old had a small single bed made up for him which did take up quite a lot of the room. The bathroom was large and extremely satisfactory. Once we had a chance to gather ourselves we decided to venture to the bar for a drink and to enjoy the ambience. However we were told that at 4.30 the bar was full and children weren't allowed in it anyway. We said we just wanted to have a sit down and relax after wandering around London for most of the day. However the only place that was offered was the American Bar, where you had to stand up, which wasn't acceptable to us. So we ended up having to leave the hotel and find somewhere else to enjoy a drink. We dined in Covent Garden and then came back to the hotel and straight to the room. Then in the morning I inquired with reception if breakfast was included to be told that it would cost us \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd75 for the three of us to have breakfast. So again we ate out of the hotel. So really I was left disappointed with our stay as we didn't feel we had a chance to soak up the ambience of the place.

I had taken the trouble to book (in person) over a month before we were due to stay. I specifically requested a front-facing Executive Double, so we could have a view of the entrance of the V&A. Therefore, there was some disappointment at check-in when told the hotel had taken in a large group and was 'full up.' So, we had to take a corner room. | No apology was offered, despite the fact the same receptionist (Elena) took the original booking & then checked us in. | The room itself was lovely - spacious, clean & tidy, although the view outside the window was of scaffolding - not quite the romantic atmosphere I had envisaged! | Now, for the positives. Bed was extremely comfortable with ample room & pillows, the room itself was spotless and the shower was big enough to fit two which had excellent pressure. Toiletries weren't Gilbert & Soames as advertised, but smelled lovely nonetheless. | We had drinks in the bar area - atmosphere was good, service excellent & the cocktails (especially the Negroni!) was even better. | Breakfast was a rather hit & miss affair - continental fare seemed fine with various cheeses, meats and bread rolls offered. For a 4* hotel, I was surprised to see that English breakfast wasn't what it should have been. The sausages were of poor quality, eggs were rubbery and the orange juice was warm in temperature! | Despite being offered on the menu, there was no black pudding visible, which, for me, is the best part of a full English! Bacon & croissants were of good quality though. | When it wasn't busy, the wi-fi worked and connection speed was acceptable in both the room & lobby. A feature I particularly liked of the hotel was the fact you had to use your room key-card for the lift, so that no non-residents could go upstairs to the bedrooms. | All in all, I would say that we had a pleasant stay & would consider returning sometime in the future - if the hotel had some sort of special offer running. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd175 for one night's stay & breakfast for two is rather high, although I guess the price is somewhat reflected in the location.", "Location Of The Reviewer": "Reading, United Kingdom", "Date Of Review": "3\/24\/2016" }, { "Property_Name": "Mondrian London at Sea Containers", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "Cool interior and great location", "Review Text": "This is a cool hotel with a great location.

I could tell you about the beautiful double double room, incredible views, sumptuous interiors, decadent cocktails, delicious food, but you know all that about the Mondrian chain already. This hotel is much more special than that. From the moment the alarmingly handsome door staff helped us out of the taxi, to the floods of tears that ensued from my daughters when leaving, the whole experience was magical. The girls felt like family by the end of our one night stay, that is how well cared for we were. At the mere mention of my 6 year old's wobbly tooth our room was visited by the tooth fairy who left treats for the girls and even drew them a rose petal bath, complete with personalised messages. For a weary full time mum I felt a load had been lifted, or at least shared for a day, and there is no price on that! The hotel is uber cool and elegant as expected, but most importantly without any pretension. I felt perfectly comfortable amongst their more glamorous guests, particularly in the den enjoying a glass of wine watching the world go by, as my daughters chatted to staff or explored the fascinating design features of the hotel. As anyone travelling with children will know, to find somewhere you can go with your little ones that is beautiful and elegant without feeling like an outcast is rare. We may not be the mondrian's most usual guests but were certainly made to feel like VIP's for a day (or two). Thank you to Ashley Shaw and his amazing staff.

Having stayed in many 5* places we were expecting to be blown away to a whole new level at the Savoy but were very much underwhelmed. We still had a fantastic time as it was just nice to have a night away, but it was far from seamless. | Were impressed by the check in (or more accurately not having to check in) as the valet took our bags and car and by the time we'd gone through the doors someone was there to greet us and knew our names and took us up to our room. This was pretty much it in terms of seeing great service. | Needless to say, lobby\/restaurants\/bars\/main areas all beautiful. | Bags took a long time to come up and I needed some things for going to dinner so held us up a bit, sent them up shortly after I called to chase. Not a big deal though would have been nice to have had time for a drink before dinner at the bar as we'd planned and also made us late for dinner which didn't help the sequence of events that followed. | Had dinner at Kaspar's which was a set menu for the evening (including aperitif of Theophile, not a fan). Had a nice wine recommended by the sommelier. The seafood dishes were wonderful, really good oysters and fruits de mer and a Dover sole main. The non-seafood plates weren't very nice, if I was to dine at Kaspar's again I'd steer away from non-fish dishes. Service started off really well, however after the main we seemed to become invisible and it took a very long time to get through dessert and the bill. We saw all the other tables have a series of treats and special Valentines things like chocolates and flowers and little shots after dessert but I think because it was so late by the time they got round to serving us (most of the restaurant had been packed away) we didn't get any of this and we were sat waiting a long time to leave. It didn't really matter that we didn't get the extras as we'd had plenty to eat, it was just the novelty value that would have been fun and it was poor form considering we'd spent close to \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd500 on dinner. | After dinner we had a reservation at the Beaufort bar for live music and drinks but they'd made our reservation at the same time as our dinner reservation rather than after (even though I had confirmed this by email) so they thought we were a no show and didn't keep a table for us and we were told they were full. Were eventually given a table with a view of the back of the band. Had a quick nightcap and left. | Room was ok, quite worn and dated, carpet quite grim, but very comfortable bed and linens so slept very well. TV didn't work, no biggie. Bose dock is for the old iphones so would be good with an adaptor. Nice selection of champagne\/drinks\/snacks in the mini bar. Bathroom had a nasty discoloured rubber slipmat in the tub and when I pulled this out there was some yucky yellowy water under there so decided against using tub. Supplies very basic indeed, needed some sanitary items which I called down for and they got so I was very grateful for that. I didn't like that they just had some loose cotton pads and buds shoved in the toiletries stand, have actually never seen these loose in any hotel before. Called for some paracetamol the next day and was made out to be a really big deal (they would need to send someone to Tesco etc. etc. so just said to forget it). In general something which I also noticed prior to arriving when making arrangements was that they seem to have some moronic phone operators who don't have much training and I was quite surprised by some of the things they say, so don't really get why they let people who aren't trained adequately to handle guest calls. Prior to arriving I was checking about our reservations and their 'operator' told me to call Kaspar's and check myself! Not the service attitude you would expect from such an institution. Nice fit bathrobes but not available to buy and take away (need to order online). | Had breakfast in the Thames foyer. Had ridiculously high seats for the table and swapping muffins for rye toast seemed to cause a massive complication, eventually got my breakfast after my partner's and got my toast so long after that the food was cold, and poached eggs solid\/butter solid (my pet hate, same in Kaspar's) - way too much effort when you just want an easy breakfast. The tongs were like stiff exercise grip contraptions, couldn't pick anything up, just made me laugh (also had this in Kaspar's). | Had some spa treatments, they were quite nice, but wouldn't return for. Also spa colour scheme is quite crazy and garish so not somewhere I would want to spend any time trying to relax around the pool. Also noticed later that double charged our treatments on both room bill and spa bill (which I'm now trying to get sorted out). | Buying some stuff from the tea shop on the way out was exhausting, so many rules around pastries (can't combine this with this, got to buy 8 of that, can't have one of those, not enough left to sell a set blah blah). Macaroons were pretty bad, very sugary and very dry. Nice choc dipped strawberries, worth noting as a good place to pick these up in future. | Took ages to get our car (because a road was closed so completely not their fault), concierge guys were very sweet and kept updating us and offered us drinks. Check-out\/express check-out very convenient. | A bit inelegant to add \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd3 newspapers to the room bill as an extra, is this really necessary? Never seen this anywhere before. Made me laugh. They should just increase room rate to price in newspapers so you might actually feel like a guest rather than a customer if they really need the \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd3, feel this hotel is confused between very US style sales\/business orientation (but not there in terms of can-do service and everything being for sale) and more GB classic discreet elegant service. Lacked attention to detail. Other good hotels are stepping up their game so much it's just not enough to fall back on an old name anymore, Savoy need to pull their socks up, they seem to be riding on the prestige of their history.

It was our Christmas treat to ourselves. We live in London, so it's a bit crazy really. | The Good | The hotel is stunning, perfect location for the fireworks. We walked outside at 23:30, walked 10mins and stood directly in front of the London Eye to watch the fireworks. We walked 10mins back, and into the hotel. So in terms of what we wanted to do it was perfect, and if you're thinking about it for 2015 then book now before the price doubles closer you get. We booked a year in advance. The hotel gives you a wrist band, but were not asked to show it to anyone as you are in the ticketed area. | The room was easily one of the better rooms I have stayed in. We were in their best room, before the suites. The room is large with lots of nice touches. Good technology in the room, simple lighting system, free FAST wifi.

Arcane is a little odd, but worked it out in the end, just needs clearer instructions. | We had room service in the evening, as we were not in the mood for their \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd350 a head NYE dinner option which I am sure would have been great as a small group, but not as a couple. The room service menu was very good, if only let down by the food arriving a little cold. | The Spa with steam room, chill out areas, sauna, swimming pool and separate spa pool is stunning, and worth a visit.

My issue was the service, there was something just a bit off with it. Take Four Seasons in Park Lane or the Savoy, where you are just taken care of the second you walk up to the door. You are made to feel like a VIP. | We received a letter before our arrival to say that we needed to enter via the Northumberland Road entrance due to the NYE road closures. This entrance is NOT the main entrance, which is the other side. There were no staff on this door when we arrived, so we walked in looking very confused as we ended with people having afternoon tea. After a few minutes we found the reception, although no signage to explain what was the reception and what was the concierge. Just annoyed me.

We stayed here for 2 nights to celebrate my Birthday and our recent wedding. | Upon arrival at this magnificent hotel our car was taken by the front staff who went and parked it for us. | Check in was a breeze and we was taken to a small room away from the main lobby area to check in and was greeted as though we had been to The Savoy a thousand times - for note, this was our first time. | We was then given a small tour of the hotel and was taken in the red lift to our room on the 5th floor. We was in room 521 which was just a few doors down from The Royal Suite ! The room was decorated in an edwardian style and it just took my breath away. The curvature of the room, the huge bed, the gorgeous marble bathroom - everything was just perfect. Once we had settled in and changed we went down to the Thames Foyer for afternoon tea. | Again upon arrival at the Thames Foyer we was greeted like old friends to the hotel and shown our table where afternoon tea would be served. We chose the rose champagne afternoon tea and was offered a selection of sandwiches of which there was a good choice of vegetarian ones - which can sometimes be a bit of an issue at other hotels - at The Savoy - nothing is too much trouble. Our waiter for the day was just wonderful and we held some fantastic conversations with him about his home town in Italy and his travels all over the world before coming to work in the most wonderful hotel in the world - The Savoy. We was even given a complimentary top up on our champagne and I was delighted to receive a rendition of Happy Birthday from the resident pianist and a birthday cake with a little candle in it. The attention to detail throughout is just stunning. | We then returned to our room and was provided with some room service cakes (as we couldn't finish them all at afternoon tea) and there was also some chocolate covered strawberries in the room as well as another small Birthday cake - such a treat ! We went to see the show the Dirty Rotten Scoundrels in the Savoy Theatre in the evening and had wonderful seats booked through the concierge. | After the show - which was hilariously funny - we went to the American Bar were again we were greeted like regular guests. The vocalist and pianist was great and the cocktails were just superb. We was again rewarded with a complimentary cocktail to celebrate our wedding and my Birthday. | Our sleep was so peaceful and the bed was just like a cloud - dreamy. In the morning we had in room breakfast dining - utterly amazing. The food is just incredible and the service - well there are no words to describe the service, just fantastic. | After a shopping trip around London we returned to dine in Kaspars restaurant in the evening which had a vegan menu - such a treat in a major hotel as we are often overlooked ! The food and service again were impeccable and could not be faulted in any way whatsoever. We was then escorted to the Beaumont Bar which feels incredibly exclusive as they was turning people away. I can't remember the name of my cocktail I only know it was yummy, and my husband had Ol' Blue Eyes which was prepared and finished at the table - obviously making it truly memorable. The only thing I would say is that the choice of entertainment in the Beaumont Bar that evening was a little out of character for the hotel as I found it cheesy and the vocalist wasn't very good - the pianist however was superb. That is my one and only criticism of the whole Savoy experience. | After another peaceful nights sleep, we again had in room breakfast dining, again delicious and served by another wonderful friendly and professional member of staff. | We was both so sad to check out of the hotel, but we had an amazing memorable experience here which will stay with us for the rest of our lives. That's what you get at The Savoy, it isn't just another hotel stay, its a magical experience - one that we didn't want to end. | The attention to detail, the staff, the food, the drinks, the afternoon tea, the room, the bathroom, the toiletries, the television, the in room dining, the mini bar, the turn down service, I can't list everything but it was just all so incredible.

I was then told the room that I was going to be in where upon the receptionist laughed to herself. I was then taken to my room which was not in the hotel but a block of old 1960's flats next to the hotel. I feared the worst when the person escorting me could not unlock the door. We then entered my room, which was unbelievable, as it looked like a student housing room which look like it had not been refurbished for the last 20 years. There was no flat screen TV as promised, the sink was dirty, the door above the sink that covered the electric boiler had obviously come of not been replaced, in general the place was scruffy as can be. To top it off the Bathroom was not in the room and actually in the hall way and on closer inspection the lock on the door was missing. No wonder the receptionist was laughing!!! | I quickly made way to the reception desk where the Manager and receptionist looked prepared for what was about to come - they actually blamed budgetplaces for not providing an accurate description of the room when booking - she kept saying hat I had paid for a basic room, which meant nothing to me - what the hell does this mean - I questioned the fact that the room that they had provided me was not good enough, it was not what I booked and why did they not have pictures of this on their website or why don't budget places have it on their website - they explained this was because they could not have any more pictures on the website - which is a whole load of tosh - actual reason is if they did then the likely hood is that they would not sell the rooms as they are that poor. On asking about the lock he said that he didn't know about this, again a load of tosh surely people that have been thrown into these rooms would have mentioned this before. The room was also very warm - there is not air conditioning and had to keep the window open - so not much sleep to be had with the church next door holding some kind of party, plus there are animals - I presume rats that scurry and make lots of noise during the night in the back carpark. | They kept apologising but it was not sincere, and offered me a discount for the next time that I stayed, both the manager and receptionist looked and sounded well versed on their excuses and their lack of sympathy towards me - no customer service or people skills here. I felt like I was backed in a corner and had no other choice to stay in this room due to everywhere being fully booked. | Location wise its a good location to get to Stratford - so I cant grumble at that but be warned people looking and thinking about booking a room in this hotel - make sure that the room you are booking is not in the building next to the hotel which does not feature in any of the pictures provided - its seriously not a good place to sleep. | What this hotel describes on their website is so far from what they actually deliver.

We had never stayed in this part of London before but decided to give it a go. And we are very happy that we did! | When we arrived we were told that we had been upgraded and had got a club room instead of the superior room that we had booked. So forget about the minimalistic hotel rooms that you usually get when visiting hotels in big cities. The room even had a smaller sitting area with a sofa and two chairs. The bathroom had a shower and a massage tub. | My husband had also secretly asked the hotel if they could put some flowers, champagne and chocolate in the room upon arrival for an additional cost only a few days before arrival. This was no problem so I got a real surprise when the door was opened. We also got a personal note from the hotel wishing us a pleasant stay. | The staff were all really friendly and did everything to help. When we asked for a nice Indian restaurant in the area they phoned for us and made a reservation. When we checked out early in the morning they informed us that the tube station wasn't open yet if we wanted to go to the airport and asked us if we needed a taxi to get there instead. You got the feeling that they really cared for you as a guest. | We also tried roomservice where we got our breakfast served in our room one morning. This worked really well and arrived on time. | Breakfast in itself was maybe what could be improved with a bigger selection, there were for example no boiled eggs in the buffet (but those could be ordered for the room service breakfast) and also not many darker breads to choose from. I would also have a larger selection of what to put on my sandwich, there were mainly just marmalade, maybe also nutella. since I am not so fond of fried things in the morning. But since I am usually a little special when it comes to food I still think most people find this breakfast decent enough, if you like a full English breakfast with beans, sausages, bacon etc. this was all there! And I must say that I liked the selection of fruit, that was a really positive thing. And instead of coffe or tea you could choose hot chocolate which I can really recommend if you're into that, it was really good. | And I also have to say that the cleaning was spotless. The room felt really clean every day and they did an excellent job. | This is my best hotel experience so far anywhere, and I have been to quite a few places. This is actually also the first time that I feel that I would stay here again if I came back. Other places have felt ok and I would maybe return, but I haven't got the feeling that I HAVE TO.

Did they pass? Well, read on... | I was told that the Savoy was the quintessential British hotel. Well, it certainly was. It's tucked away pretty innocuously but look around you and admire the art deco architecture of the theatre and the buildings around you. And do notice the Rolls-Royce Phantom with the \"S4VOY\" numberplate! Inside its all gloriously old-fashioned but well maintained... well, almost. More on that later. During check-in, there were quite a few black-suited gentlemen and ladies hovering around who volunteered to carry my hand luggage and take me to my room. I said I could do that myself, but one of them insisted to show me the room. Oh well. Up the old fashioned lift, down the corridor with a four-step staircase thrown in, I was shown my room - \"Our Art Deco special suite for you, sir.\" Allllright. And the guy turned out to be the floor butler, who was on call for me. Luxury, British style... | My suite was large. To the right of the entrance was the sitting room with a working desk and a sofa set, TV and bar, etc. Straight ahead was a separate toilet and to the left was the bedroom, the closet and the bathroom. The windows in both rooms allowed a glimpse of the Thames in front but it was hemmed in by the big but beautiful buildings on either side of the street leading to... The Savoy Pier! Yes, a hop, skip and jump away is a pier on the river named after the hotel. So it is superbly located indeed. | I utilised the services of the butler to get me coffee (which came along with scones, jam and preserves) and also asked him whether my jacket needed pressing (Not necessary sir, but if you would like to get it pressed...). The next day I asked for coffee again but it came without the goodies. No problem. Then I asked him if I could get a tablet for my headache: the answer was no, but they could go to the pharmacy nearby and get it for you. | The room was superbly appointed and so was the bathroom. It was luxurious and comfortable. And what was impressive was that on the writing desk in the hall, I spotted the Savoy stationery - with my name on it! Monogrammed stationery - now that's a great souvenir. As far as the food was concerned, I only had breakfast, which was substantial. And the bar is cosy and had live music while I was there. | Once the old-fashioned lifts were put to the test when it got overloaded but we didn't realise it. It rose up and ground to a shrieking halt. Then it rose up again and did the same. We exited it when we reached a floor and took the stairs! A few weeks later when I returned home, I realised I didn't swipe my frequent flyer card. I mailed them with the details asking if they would do it. The next day there was a mail in my inbox saying it will be done. Exactly what I expected. | The Savoy is quintessential British luxury, if you really want to live it up.

Simply beautiful everywhere you look. | The doormen always open the door for you and greet you with a warm smile | The concierge was most helpful and friendly | Where the hotel fails is the service. And it fails miserably. I have given this review long and hard thought because I really, really wanted to love the Corinthia. But I strongly feel that part of an exceptional vacation is a fantastic hotel stay. Sadly we didn't have a great hotel stay. We were there for 6 nights, so I believe we got a good feel for the hotel. | Where the service failed us follows (I am going to highlight just a few things as the list would be too long to publish if I listed every failing we experienced): | Upon arrival at the hotel (we were guaranteed in writing an 8:00am check-in by the Reservation Supervisor), we were told our room was not ready and wouldn't be until after 3:00pm. I consider myself a reasonable person, but I was paying $1,300.00 a night and part of the reason I agreed to such a high price was so that I could rest after a cross Atlantic flight. Thank goodness I had the confirmation with me, otherwise we would have been out of luck as were told that the hotel was full and they had no room to give us. Funny enough they managed to find us an Executive Room (category we had booked) to \"rest\" in. I stated I wanted to keep the room as I loathe unpacking (toiletries, change of clothes, etc) and packing up again after a brief rest and shower, but was told other, more important clients had booked the room and we would have to vacate by noon. Too exhausted to argue, we went to the room, could not locate a \"Do Not Disturb\" sign to hang on the door and laid down. We were disturbed not once, not twice, but THREE times by incessant ringing of the door bell. Finally the mini bar gentleman informed us that he would press a \"DND\" button for us. How annoying when you are trying to sleep. | We had to pack the bags back up and vacate the room. We were told that we had been \"upgraded\" to a Junior Suite. Even though I didn't want it. It was very disappointing. The primary reason is that the closet was so tiny (the smallest we have ever experienced at any hotel in the world) that I could not even unpack one carry on, whereas the closet in the Executive Room had a full walk-in closet with many drawers, shelves, mirrors, racks to hang clothes on, etc. We had two tiny drawers (excl. the one the safe was in) and 8 or 10 hangars in our \"Suite\". More hangars would not have helped as there was no room for more than that. There was no room for so much as a pair of shoes in the closet either. I can't say enough how frustrating that closet was. We were there for SIX nights and I had to store the majority of our clothes in a suitcase (I will also mention that there was only room for 1 suitcase in the closet). I begged and begged for our \"Executive\" room back but was told they had nothing else for us. I would have taken the smallest room at the hotel as long as it had a closet, but nothing was offered. Nada. | The bathroom was lovely. The shower was beyond nice. It was exceptional. But ours only had 1 sink (unusual for a suite). That sink backed up during our entire stay. I had to ask 4 times to have it fixed. I'm not sure if they were unable to fix it the first 3 times or it just took 4 calls for them to come to the room. I never got a straight answer. But I found it disgusting to have a sink that would fill to the top when you washed your hands and then take 10 minutes to drain. Enough said. | The thermostat in our room was not working. It was set at 23.5c, but it was FREEZING. We were shivering in the room. I had to call 5 times to have it fixed. I was told repeatedly that there was nothing wrong with it. After the 5th call, we had it set at 21c for the remainder of the stay and we were comfortable. But it took 3 days to have it fixed. Three days of extreme discomfort. | Perhaps the most egregarious failing of the hotel was with regards to the locks on our balcony doors. We were on the 1st floor and had 2 doors that exited to the courtyard. There were approximately 10 or 12 other rooms with the same configuration that were reachable via the courtyard that we were facing. Meaning we could easily walk from our patio to the one next door. On the second day, I went outside. I noticed (I had left the door open) that I was able to open the patio door from the outside as it didn't seem to lock. Alarmed, I immediately called reception. I was assured that the doors were self locking when closed and there was no problem. I asked if someone could come and check to be sure and was told they would. On the fourth day I was again on the patio and decided to try the other (second) door from the outside. It was UNLOCKED. So I shut the first one and it too was UNLOCKED from the outside. Meaning anyone from the other 10 or 12 rooms could have, at any point, day or night, walked right into our room via the patio doors. When I called the front desk again, I was assured that I was wrong and the doors are self locking and that they had checked them. I told them this was not the case and to please fix the doors immediately. When we returned to the room, one of the doors was permanently locked (from the inside and outside) and the other now had a key in the lock. I was never offered an apology for putting my safety at risk. Shame on the hotel for such an alarming oversight on guest safety. A backed up sink and broken thermostat, liveable (though not acceptable), but unlocked doors. Not okay. Ever. | For those traveling with families. Beware that the pool does not allow children (yes, you are reading correctly). Children are \"allowed\" to swim between 10am and 11:30am and 3:00pm to 4:30pm. Hours that do not work when you are in London to tour the city. | There were many, many other failings in customer service, but I believe I have highlighted the significant ones. I really did want to love this hotel. It is so modern and gorgeous. But the customer service (or lack thereof) just took that feeling away from us. | Would I recommend this hotel?

I flew business class to and from and had the least expensive room with breakfast at the Savoy. While I had been excited about the business class flight, it was okay as the service was just okay and the food wasn't so good. I must admit it was really nice to be able to lie down and sleep and be in my little separate area but that experience wasn't quite what I had hoped. However from the moment I arrived at the Savoy until I left, I was happier than I could have believed. Just walking into the hotel, you feel the difference. It isn't only that this is a luxury hotel with a high price but a welcoming and comfortable hotel. It was amazing to have your own receptionist who not only checks you in but takes you on a bit of a tour before taking you to your room. I had a gorgeous Art Deco room with a tangential view of the Thames. From the moment we walked in, I was stunned by the marble floored foyer and lovely bathroom. I knew from the website that the room was going to be large (much larger than any room I have had in London before) but the photos didn't do it justice. And it was comfortable. Every person I interacted with was gracious and warming and if they knew I was a \"poor cousin\" in the less expensive room on a package no less, I was never made to feel that way. It was such a special stay that I am returning in September. I had a choice to fly business and stay at another 5 star hotel that was less expensive or fly premium economy and stay at the Savoy.

I looked at the pictures online and the wide angle lens is working magic. The rooms truly are THAT small. | I'm a Marriott Gold member so I booked this hotel because it was in a great location to where my daughter was studying in London. I also like that it had a London-esque feel rather than a large hotel without character. | When we checked in, my sister was given a Petite Double and I could have sworn I booked a Terrace King, but we were given a Terrace Double. We opened the door and there was some resemblance to the picture online (the bird pillows), but it failed to show there is absolutely NO room for a suitcase. After a long haul flight, the teeny, tiny bed almost made me cry as well. | I went to the lobby and inquired if there was any availability for an upgrade (perk of Marriott Gold). After a little bit of discussion, they offered us a King Terrace room next door to our existing room. We took it. In the meantime, my sister couldn't even wheel her luggage into her Petite room. There is literally no room to do so, unless you start rearranging furniture. She asked the front desk if she could have our old room and they moved her into it. Huge kudos to the front desk staff for moving us both up! | I loved the fresh air from the \"terrace\", but I think calling it a terrace room invokes a sense or feeling that you will be able to sit outside. One person can possibly fit on the strip of balcony but I wouldn't pick a room for a terrace. It's not going to be what you think it should be. Although the King room had a larger bed, the room itself is still VERY small. We were unable to open our suitcases in the room and had to take turns opening and closing one at a time on the bed. | I'm giving the Hotel Xenia 4-stars as the staff was exceptional. They were friendly, helpful and gave the hotel the extra feeling that was missing from the rooms. The common areas are lovely, bar is nice and breakfast options are plenty. | I'm not sure I would stay there again though as the rooms were almost undoable for 2 people tripping over each other. If you are tiny people traveling with a backpack or a small carry-on, you could make the luggage work on the desk. We are tall people and each had a piece of checked luggage. We were about to kill each other after 3 days of slithering around each other with excuse me, pardon me and get the &^&$ out of my way! The decorative bird pillows and the extra blanket at the bottom of the bed was about to go on the terrace as there is literally NO room to set them anywhere else. | Hotel Xenia is in a great location and we hiked everywhere from the hotel. We Tubed one day but really prefer hiking to see more. Kensington is beautiful and we saw so much more of London than I thought we'd be able to in our short time here.

Complimentary Pringles, Jelly Beans, pillow mist, wide awake eye gel, free wifi, bose iPod doc to name but a few...... much more than the normal biccies which you would expect. Breakfast was excellent, no self service and food was of a very high quality, we all had slight variations on the full English, along with lots of coffee, tea, pastries and yogurts! We left the hotel at 12, which gave us time to ensure a leisurely breakfast which serves until 11am (not sure if this is a weekend only time - worth checking during weekdays), returning later in the day to collect our luggage which was stored safely. We all really couldn't find fault with the hotel, and would gladly return.

From the river side you don\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt get much of an impression of scale, but once inside the hotel is vast and really feels like a luxury escape from the hustle and bustle right outside. The check-in process was swift and friendly, and our request for the highest floor possible had been happily met. The room itself, a river view balcony suite, was even more impressive than expected. The large balcony overlooking the Thames, across to St. Pauls and beyond to the city, felt incredibly private despite being literally directly above the water, in fact you had to lean right over (not recommended!) to even be able to see the walkway below. It really felt as though we were on board a ship on the water.

Little touches like the addition of tealights and lamps to light up the terrace at night really showed that the management had thought about the best way to make the guest feel at home. | We had dinner in the Sea Containers and whilst the menu is fairly simple, the quality of the food was superb. The seafood platter to start was quite possibly the freshest we\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdve ever tasted, and as part of the Sunday dinner package we had the roast chicken which sounds ordinary but was anything but, plus some accompaniments that were equally defiant of their plain description. The service was friendly and the atmosphere in the restaurant even on a Sunday evening had a real buzz because of the proximity to the south bank promenade, which you feel close enough to be part of, but removed enough from so that it\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds not intrusive. Unfortunately the rooftop bar the Rumpus Room was closed on Sunday but we will definitely be back to try it out another time. | Breakfast in the room on Monday morning arrived bang on the time requested, exactly as ordered, and was equally as high quality as the night before.

This hotel offers a great neighborhood location directly across the street from the Victoria and Albert Museum and just a few blocks from Harrods. The location is fantastic for tourists! | The hotel is just outside of the central London bustle but situated near the South Kensington tube so that you can get to any part of London easily (buy an all-day travel card to save money \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd offered at the ticket machines \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd and good for buses and the tube). We like the hotel\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds location as it allows you to experience London but stay in a smaller neighborhood with nice shops and restaurants \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd and without the crowds. A few more reasons we enjoy this hotel: | | - Convenience from the airport \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd The property is near the South Kensington tube stop on the Picadilly Line with trains running direct from Heathrow. I loved not having to change trains, and the ride on the tube saves you considerable money over other forms of transportation into London (the one-way tube ticket from the airport costs just over 5 pounds \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd you need a zone 6 to zone 1 ticket. By comparison, the Heathrow Express Train costs over 19 pounds one way, and you will still need to take the tube or a cab from Paddington Station to the hotel. Taking the tube saves you a ton!) The walk from the tube to\/from the hotel takes about 5 minutes along an easy, safe path through a lovely neighborhood. By the way, I timed the journey to\/from Heathrow, and each train trip took about 40 minutes. | - The Kensington Neighborhood \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd The area around the South Kensington tube stop offers many casual, affordable food options that won\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt break your budget. We enjoyed Muriel\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds Kitchen for breakfast on our arrival morning and for coffee\/tea and snacks we visited Gail\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds and Paul (two separate bakery shops). Additionally, we ate at a local caf\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd named Greenfield\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds (where two of us enjoyed breakfast with tea for under 12 pounds total) and a wonderful Lebanese restaurant \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd all located right around the entrance to the tube. There is also a Starbucks and Pret Manger for snacks. If you leave the hotel and walk in the opposite direction of the South Kensington station (Harrods is only 2 blocks in this direction), you will pass many more moderate to upscale restaurants, coffee houses and pubs. All to say, there are lots of nice options located near the hotel. | Finally, we found this property to be both safe (you need a guest room card to activate the elevator, which we appreciated) and clean. There is free wireless internet throughout the hotel (a nice amenity) and a lovely bar and restaurant. The staff is very efficient, and we had no issues. Our room was not available until about 1:30 p.m. on the day of our morning arrival, but the staff kept our bags and we walked to Kensington Park and Kensington Palace \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd a lovely way to stay awake after a red-eye flight from the U.S.! | While I do like The Rembrandt, I will mention that the hotel rooms are a bit small (see photo) but nicely decorated and very clean. My only complaint with this hotel is that the room doors slam and noise travels easily through thin walls. We were awakened every morning around 8:00 a.m. with the sounds of housekeeping knocking on doors and entering\/exiting rooms \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd with the sounds of doors slamming \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd while performing their morning duties.

The lobby is so lovely, with its huge urns of flowers, it's nearly intimidating. The building is exquisite, the site is unsurpassable and the service is spot-on in the fantastic British tradition of \"only the best will do.\" Sadly, very few hotels seem to take the quality of its service, which is not just \"good service \" seriously. Quality service is where the hotel standards are so high it's impossible for the most discerning guest to experience any thing but total perfection. What makes the Dorchester and only a few other hotels this special is it is all done perfectly on the first try. Most five star hotels decidedly do not attempt to employ these standards. | I much prefer flawless service and pristine housekeeping, along with lovely public areas and comfortable rooms to gadgets galore and high tech and glitzy. I'm not suggesting the Dorchester is not absolutely up to date but the emphasis is on hospitality. My Executive Deluxe Room was polished, elegant and in perfect condition. I was delighted to get my preferred view and some nice welcome treats. Nothing beats a beautifully made bed with spectacular bedding. The Dorchester knows how to pamper me by ensuring their highest standards are continuously met, despite it being a rather large hotel.

Our room was large as was the bathroom, there was complimentary bottled water and fruit also. We spent the evening out some friends, on returning to our room, we discovered a lovely chocolate decorated cake had been left for us, such a nice touch. The bed had been turned down, pyjamas laid out and my untidy pile of clothes folded up. The next morning we asked at breakfast if the cake could be boxed for us to carry, we were told this could be arranged and sure enough when we got back to our room the cake was inside a Dorchester carry box. Our breakfast was lovely, freshly cooked with lovely breads and pastries. This is not a cheap place to stay and really was a treat for us, but we were impressed with all the staff, the attitude seems to be nothing is too much trouble for a guest. Finally, I am not the best sleeper, but have to say our room was quiet, the bed and pillows were so comfortable, it was like sleeping on a cloud. All in all a lovely stay.

The Savoy is by far my favourite hotel in London. | The Savoy experience starts the moment you arrive at the door and does not disappoint at any time during any stay we have had. | The reception is efficient and relaxed, the rooms are all beautifully appointed.

Let me be clear that I give it a \"poor\" rating by the global standards of five-star hotels. Infrequent travelers looking for a fun night out might find it acceptable, but those who are on the road a lot or have more experience with five-star hotels know that the difference is in the details, and the details are where the Savoy is sadly lacking. | While the shabby-chic splendor of the hotel pre-renovation was charming, it can't be denied that the update is truly impressive. The rooms are outfitted splendidly, and the public spaces are grand. The problem is the staff. At least service is less chaotic than it was the year or two after the renovation. But it is still inconsistent, and this year we've noticed a marked downgrade in some of the services and amenities. It's no secret that the hotel is having financial difficulties, and one suspects they have begun to cut corners. For example, guests used to be provided lovely black slippers with the Savoy logo. Now it's just cheap oversized stock white slippers. They've also stopped providing custom stationary. A selection of newspapers used to be delivered free each morning, and now there's a charge. As Fairmont Platinum members, we used to receive an amenity that was refreshed daily -- usually fruit and large bottles of water. On our last arrival, we had to request the amenity, and then it was only refreshed inconsistently. We finally gave up asking, and the staff just removed the empty fruit bowl from our room. These may be just little things, but it gives the impression of nickel-and-diming -- not what you'd expect from a five-star hotel. | Here's an example of the little irritating lapses in service: In our last two-week stay, we were apparently overlooked on turn-down service several times. We had to call housekeeping after 9pm to request it. Turn-down includes a bottle of water by the bed and a fresh glass. Sometimes, housekeeping will not remove the dirty glasses during the day. If we do not move the dirty glasses off the nightstand, they will sometimes be reused by the turn-down staff! Apparently, the culprit is whomever is responsible for refreshing the glasses during the day -- this is often not done, and sometimes we have a \"graveyard\" of used glasses on the coffee table, which we ultimately have to call to have removed. The turndown staff won't make the effort to go get clean glasses, of course. They'll just leave the dirty ones, or failing that leave nothing. | Now, this may seem a ridiculously petty thing to complain about. When I'm at home, no one leaves me a fresh glass by the bedside at night. But when you're paying a lot of money to stay in a five-star hotel, you expect consistently excellent service. After a long work day, it's annoying to come back to the room and find a light bulb is still out in the bathroom, the tissues haven't been refilled, or dirty glasses are stacked up on the table. | I've read a number of the poor reviews here, and they all ring true. We've had problems with the heat and the plumbing, frustrations with laundry, in-room dining, housekeeping, etc. On the weekends, we've seen food carts and trays left in the hallway all day long, with staff just walking by repeatedly without removing them. Disgusting! | The only consistently excellent service we get is from the doormen, who are always polite and obliging.

Other core tourist attractions like St Paul's and the Parliament House precinct are an easy walk. There are 3 tube stations within 10 minutes walk including Waterloo Station. Black Friars is mere steps away. | The main restaurant does an above average (although fairly static) buffet breakfast but rises to high standards at lunch and in evenings for very high quality a la carte dining (far above usual hotel standards). | This hotel is almost too cool for school yet gets past that to provide exceptional quality service, accommodation and dining.

This was handled very professionally and with minimal fuss over email as the spa, the florist and the reservations department all contacted me and confirmed my requests. | When we arrived the porter took our bags with a smile and we checked in with no fuss. We were escorted to our room, which was ready for us and on arrival given a brief overview of the safety deposit box etc. Soon after arriving our bags arrived. The room was stunning. A real treat with fluffy thick feeling carpets, woods and marble in the bathroom with all modern comms that you would expect (Great shower and bath). The flowers and champagne I had ordered were beautifully arranged and they had even provided a little cake and a card wishing my wife a happy birthday! A nice touch. | After going to the theatre in the evening, we decided to stop in the Bassoon bar for a few cocktails. The waitress was very attentive and although she got my 1st order wrong (she misheard me and bought the wrong beer for our 1st round), it really wasn't an issue as we had table service and my wife loved the bubblegum cocktails. Very funky\/cool place with a nice vibe. | The bed was really comfortable to sleep in and we had a nice lay in on Sunday. The other amazing thing about this hotel... 24 hour check in\/out. We slept in quite late on the Sunday as we got back late, but there was no rush to be out the hotel by 11 or 12 as with every other hotel. When we checked in they asked what time we would approximately be checking out and as we had a day in the spa planned we didn't want to leave until around 6 or 7pm. This was no problem at all and it was so nice being able to get up when we wanted and have a base for the day we were leaving! | My wife had 2 hours in the spa having a facial and a massage and she described it as one of the best she has ever had (and she has quite a few). She said the attention to detail and advice offered during the whole treatment was really good. Whilst my wife was in the the spa I decided to go for a run and concierge was very helpful in providing me with a jogging route up down past Buckingham Palace and around the Serpentine in Hyde Park. I then joined my wife and we relaxed in the hot pool and sauna, before grabbing some freshly squeezed juices from the spa lounge. After an hour or so we could wander back to our room where we got ready to check out, but took our time and didn't feel rushed thanks to the fact we could check out whenever! | This hotel is simply amazing and the little touches are what make all the difference. The fact every time we walked into the reception, the staff addressed us by name (I'm assuming they have some machine that picks up something from our key card and displays it on the computer...either that or they have Rainman like abilities for remembering a face!)

On the first stay after it had recently opened the hotel was finding its feet and lacked a bit of identity and atmosphere and there were a few gaps in service levels which is not surprising for a new hotel of this size and aspiration. On subsequent visits service consistency has been fixed and the hotel has some of the most attentive and thoughtful staff of any London hotel I've stayed in, as a result of good hiring and attention to detail on service, f&b offering and cleanliness\/check-in etc the Corinthia now has a distinctive identity and soul and is now a large living breathing high end hotel that differentiates versus the more vanilla\/formula-driven international 5 star chains. I would have no hesitation booking this hotel for a family visit to London now. | What makes this hotel special: | - Quality of the decor and fit out of the rooms, very high standard and classic\/refined style despite being a new hotel | - Spa\/fitness and pool area, by far the largest and most extensive spa facility of any metropolitan hotel I've visited globally. 5 levels of pampering, relaxation and exercise that you could get lost in for the best part of a day and a spa so large it is not hard to get an appointment at short notice after a long flight into London. Pool, jacuzzi, sauna and steam facilities best I've seen and open to kids for a few hours a day. | - Atmosphere and quality of public areas, the atrium is now one of the best places in London for high tea and breakfast in the main restaurant is always a treat and well executed. | - Standard of service: It is clear they have hired very well and ensure they have experienced staff of the highest quality and attentiveness that have been trained well. | What are the downsides to the hotel: | - Location is a little bit further out of West End than other options in Mayfair\/Park Lane so this isn't the very best location for those wanting to shop and see the key central galleries etc. That said it is a bit quieter than west end with less traffic and tourists so can feel like a real oasis within Zone 1. Walking distance (for healthier legs) to most sights either way and plenty of black cabs available for a 5 pound cab ride to Bond Street etc. | - Standard rooms a little smaller than standard rooms at other hotels at similar price point (Claridges, Mandarin Oriental, Berkeley, Haymarket) but still just big enough. Would ask for a room with a juliet balcony onto the central courtyard which feel more spacious when windows open. | - See above re kids only being allowed in pool area at certain times of day, not an issue as long as you plan around it and manage expectations of children accordingly. | Give this place a chance and it won't disappoint.

They very much helped make the weekend a delight. | We booked a 'special' family experience for \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd349 for two interconnecting rooms and breakfast. The rooms were lovely traditional style rooms, high ceilings, plenty big enough, elegant furniture and prints, marble bathroom, (mid-size but adequate). We had been told there wasn't a river view family room available but that we would get one overlooking the courtyard: we didn't get that either, but faced a rather unpleasant looking block of rooms opposite, but this was the only negative aspect of the trip (bar the price - see below). In all other respects the rooms were better than expected. | We went swimming in a small but lovely swimming pool on the third floor, and ate dinner early at 5.45 with the boys in the famous Grill. The food was simply brilliant, and whilst the whole affair was little taxing on the two boys after about an hour, they managed well: they were treated to a tour of the kitchens, were given special treats by the waiters and were generally treated with respect - another fear we had had in advance was that they would be unwelcome in this rather sedate envrionment. If they were, we weren't to know it. The kids menu was not quite appropriate for the unrefined tastes of my two, but the kitchen were happy to supply pretty well anything we asked for - pasta with melted cheese for mains, a portion of carrots to start etc. | Kids eat free there but before you all rush, the adults pay through the nose! To be fair, it was a special event for us so we didn't hold back on the glasses of champagne to start etc. The basic cost is \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd30 for the pre-theatre menu or \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd60 for the full menu, both 3 courses each (plus a couple of delightful extras thrown in).

Really, I just wanted to move in permanently. | Our 5th-floor room had every comfort imaginable, starting with an entrance foyer complete with twin coat closets. The bedroom was spacious and included a table with two chairs that could be utilized for both work and in-room dining. The huge windows opened for fresh air. Our spacious bathroom, with its heated marble floor, included a large soaking tub and a large shower stall fitted with an amazing rain showerhead. | Our only disappointment was not being able to spontaneously enjoy afternoon tea in the lobby, following a brisk walk in the cold. Apparently the Corinthia's smart lobby is the place to be and be seen, so advance reservations are necessary. | Breakfast in the high-ceilinged Northall Restaurant is a treat, with the ability to offer off a menu, or indulge in the self-serve buffet, which offers most anything you could possibly be in the mood for. | In the early evening, don't miss having drinks at Massimo, where waiters distribute complimentary plates of incredibly delicious antipasti.

On finally checking in there were two rooms assigned to me, which was incorrect but because of the chaos the member of staff could not contact central reservations to see where the mix up occurred \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd with plenty of dark mutterings of potential cancellation charges \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd clearly implying the mistake must be mine and for which I would have to pay. Then worst was to come, I had booked a dinner and stay package and was then informed there was no table available in any of the restaurants until really late that evening \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd quite a problem as I had already paid for it! I was contacted before my stay several times by the Savoy to ask for my guests name and time of arrival (not that that made the slightest difference on check in) but not warned that the restaurants were filling fast - all very odd. The best they could offer me was to be put on a waiting list, so the sole late table was secured with the hope of an earlier one becoming available. | We were offered no help with our bags and not shown to the room (completely different experience from when I stayed previously when the luggage was whisked away and we were taken to the room). I was also now beginning to become worried that maybe I had inadvertently booked two rooms, I double checked my emails and also tried to contact the booking agent to confirm, it seemed to me that it must be their mistake but with the threat of a large cancellation charge ringing in my ears I thought I would try contacting central reservations to see if I could sort out the issue, where check in had failed. The fear of a large unnecessary bill galvanising me into action. | To his credit the Assistant Director of Rooms contacted me almost immediately and was extremely polite and helpful (weird how check in could not manage that task but I could), he explained that he was unhappy with my experience so far, that the room mix up was indeed their fault as they placed the booking twice on the system and even managed to secure a table earlier (6pm with a time limit when the table needed to be returned, not great - but in this situation I decided beggars could not be choosy). He seemed genuinely surprised that no help was offered with our bags and tried to assure me this was not their expected standard of service. He confirmed I would not be charged for the second room (weight off my mind) and even kindly sent a bottle of house champagne to the room. I would, of course, rather the whole stressful experience had not happened, but it was a nice gesture. I was then hopeful the experience would improve. Unfortunately this was not the case - turned up at 6 to the restaurant, shown to an odd little table and despite the waiter in the restaurant being a very nice chap, there was a mix up over drinks and wrong menus presented then taken away etc, all a bit of a disaster. On a positive note the food was good. | Went back to the room, thinking nothing more could possibly further happen to make this stay more miserable only to be awoken by, I believe, a delivery, at around 4am in the morning as my room overlooked the loading bay for the hotel. I had checked on check in that the room was quiet as I am quite a light sleeper, the lady confirmed it was! So did not even manage a full nights sleep. At breakfast, true to form, there was a minor mix up with the order. On check out I explained about the noise and there was a note made, but heard nothing more. The Assistant Director of Rooms had also sent me a further email offering an upgrade next time I stayed, however I am not sure I would want to put myself through the whole miserable, unpleasant and stressful experience again.

Upon going on line I saw that there were rooms available to be booked for that night so I'm not sure why they couldn't move us to a more suitable room. We had informed them that we were celebrating our 20th anniversary and we are Presidents club members who have had fabulous experiences with the Fairmont chain. The room was ok but the bathtub\/shower drain was broken. I went down again to see if there was any alternative and was told that they would move us the next day which was preferable but meant that we couldn't unpack and had to make sure everything remained packed since we were leaving the hotel early for a full day tour of the countryside. On a much more positive note, they sent a lovely cake to acknowledge our anniversary. We had tea in the Thames foyer which far exceeded our expectations and was just fabulous. The concierge had our theater tickets ready and was very helpful but unfortunately she could not find the information regarding our tour (I had called ahead to arrange for morning pickup). After spending the day in the country and having a fabulous Indian dinner at Punjab, we returned to the Savoy and found we had been moved to the 6th floor with a terrific city\/river view. I was still a little bothered by the conversation with the front desk staff who did not have a record of my request for a room on a high floor and insisted that the view of the duct was not a downgrade from the category I had booked. In my past experiences with Fairmont I have been upgraded and also remained in my chosen category but I had never anticipated the downgrade. The new room has a terrific view. I would suggest adding a few more electrical outlets since people have cameras\/phones to charge and the adapters don't seem to work.

Look to the left of the bar and there is a display cabinet with the most unusual artefacts of the history of the hotel - the Barman was very informative on the antique crystal glasses and decanters in there and original cocktail books and recipes of the very first Barman at The Savoy! | We looked out from the Beaufort Bar into the Thames Foyer - a magnificent contrast! A beautiful atrium and below the pianist tinkling away to the occasional 'happy birthday'. | The waitresses were most attentive and our glasses and cups never ran dry. We chose 2 traditional afternoon teas and 1 high tea - they vary slightly in that one gives you a more savoury option and the other the more sweet. With the savoury was smoked salmon and scrambled eggs with melba toast, then crumpets with a selection of jams whilst the other was scones with cream\/jam. Both had the same beautiful selection of finger sandwiches. Because we chose the 2 different teas we got to taste more of selection of the divine cakes and pastries. My personal favourite was the hazelnut and coffee souflee cake - of which I had 4!!! The waitress will bring you more of whatever you want or desire! | I chose the English breakfast tea and my daughter chose the Afternoon Tea blend which I actually preferred, but there are actually sooooo many teas to choose from! | We stayed for 3 hours and when we stepped back outside into the streets of London we all said how we felt we had been in a perfect 'bubble' of escapism, and felt we had stepped back into history, during that time!

It took me a few guesses to work out what it was but I got there in the end and just switched off the temperature control. | Secondly, there was a loud splashing noise above the doorway area, we thought at first that it was the room above us having a shower, but if that truly was the case then I'm not sure how many people were having showers up there in one night... my girlfriend suggested that it may just be a pipe running above the doorway. | Anyway, the negative points were not so bad, I left the air conditioning on whilst I went out and the splashing noises were not overwhelming, they certainly didn't wake us or stop us from sleeping. | One other note: if you're going to buy water from the bar, the price is about \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd6 for 800ml.

I have stayed in quite a few luxury hotels. | In July 2016 I stayed at the Savoy on 3 different occasions over a fortnight booked as part of a package with British Airways. | On my third stay which was for 3 nights I booked a room direct with the Hotel for my Aunt who stayed across the hall from me. She summed it up best. This isn't a Hotel it feels like someones very grand London house as we are guests. | On every level this Hotel is exceptional. | On my first arrival the doorman with a top hat greeted my by saying 'And you must be Mr Walsh?' How he knew is beyond me but it immediately set the tone. He ushered me to check in which was effortless and then Check in directed me to my room. My first room was a courtyard view room and it was on the 7th floor of the River wing and had a sunny view and was very quiet. It was spacious and decorated with the greatest of style, the bed was huge and comfy and great to sleep in, the bathroom had every conceivable amenity and was very large and well appointed with stylish marble decor. | The refurb was in 2010 and yet there is not a scuff or mark of wear or tear anywhere in this place it looks brand new.Even after 6 years! | On my first stay I had several trips to the country side or continent and one early morning sought the assistance of the wonderful receptionist Maya. What an ambassador this young lady is for this Hotel (for reasons that will become evident later in the review.) | On my second trip I was just there overnight but still Maya was there early in the morning when I got back from Venice at 2am and greeted me warmly and took me to the loveliest room overlooking the river. | My third trip upon returning from the English countryside Maya was there again to greet my Aunt and I who were staying in rooms opposite each other with me having the same room as my second stay. This room overlooked the garden and river was much larger than my first room with much the same amenities although there was a lot more wardrobe space. The bathroom was a temple with separate little rooms for the toilet and shower, a huge footed bath and double basin and heated floors. | What sets a Hotel apart from others though is the staff. As I said my Aunt felt like we were staying in someones house not an hotel. | Maya on my third visit greeted me warmly as did the door man who remembered by name, as did the concierge as did the room service staff as did the laundry pressing staff.But this was friendly welcoming service not obsequious service which I hate. Whenever during our third stay Maya saw us walking across the lobby there was always a big smile and a huge wave. They are all so evidently proud to work there. It made me feel like Hector Elizondo in Pretty Woman treated her as a valued guest for whom it was a pleasure to have staying. | On arrival for my third stay we had visitors coming for afternoon tea which we had not booked (more later) and so we asked if they could valet park and this was no problem. | Our room wasn't ready and despite only 2 of us staying Maya took us to the American Bar and told them to give us whatever we wanted on the house. | Afternoon tea was booked for us by Maya even though we could see they were full. After our lovely drink we went to afternoon tea where somehow they had worked out it was my birthday and sang Happy Birthday and gave me a little cake. | Now some on Tripadvisor state that whilst the Savoy is lovely it is expensive. They must have been staying at a different Hotel. 1st of all every drink in the bars in this place comes with a platter of olives, crisps and nuts. Laundry pressing is free and your clothes are back with in the hour. I called for coffee each morning and this was brought up and never appeared on my bill. I had my shoes shined perfectly on several occasions. | The room service menu is comparative in price with any Sheraton or Hilton in Australia and the food presentation and quality 10 times better. My kippers one morning at breakfast were to die for! | The mini bar prices were comparative with hotels in Asia and Australia about $8 Australian for a diet coke which is what you pay in a Hilton or Sheraton here. | The restaurants were similarly very well priced for the quality of food and presentation. Go to Simpsons for breakfast you get a huge English Fry Up for 12 pounds that is $17 Australian and here that would cost you $40! | On top of this the front desk staff, wait staff, and incredible door staff the porters were so helpful and friendly. | Finally the Savoy is smack bang in the middle of everything, Covent Garden, the Opera, the Galleries and Museums, the River and a short cab ride to the Jermyn St and Oxford Street shops. | It truly is my home away from home in London.", "Location Of The Reviewer": "Sydney Australia", "Date Of Review": "8\/8\/2016" }, { "Property_Name": "Corinthia Hotel London", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "Excellent stay", "Review Text": "Although I was only staying here for one night on a business trip I would not hesitate in going back.

They were fully booked for our final night in London so we decided to splurge (325pounds) & spend our last night in London at the Savoy. | We arrived at the hotel & the taxi door was opened by a doorman who addressed me by my surname (very impressive). We were whisked inside & greeted by a young lady who completed the reception particulars & took us to our room. Meanwhile, two very efficient bell men had taken our luggage up to our room. So far we're talking 5 stars. | Once in our room I looked for instructions to turn on the WiFi & found it would cost 9:50pounds per day(about$15) We also checked for water & could only find it in the minibar for $5:00. i hate getting nickeled & dimed when your paying so much for a room so I went downstairs & enquired. I was told i could get free Wi-Fi if i joined the \"Fairmont Presidents Club\". So I joined the FPC for free. This form of gratuitous marketing should not happen at this price. | I returned to the room(#517) & my wife pointed out the layer of dust on the minibar & glass shelf above. There were two rings from drinking glasses on the marble top of the minibar. At this point (about 1pm) a man came to check the minibar. We explained that we'd only been in the room for an hour & could he clean the area. He & the dust left but the drinking glass stains remained. We then started to look round our room. We found more dust inside the closets & the armchair was stained by something red(blood,nail polish,lipstick??) | The design of the bedroom was ingenious & well thought out. The designer had taken a relatively small room & created closets & draw space more than enough for two people for a week. The bathroom, however, was a different matter. At first glance it was gorgeous. Carrera marble filled the whole space & it looked really impressive; that is, until you used it. The beautiful marble shower has no shelves so that we had to put our soap & shampoo on the floor & keep bending over to pick up when you wanted to use them. It also had no handheld shower head; one of which sat idly at the other side of the room on the bath. Much later when washing my face in the sink I had to go back to the shower & grope around for the soggy soap on the floor as the Savoy only issued one soap bar. Another peculiarly British thing that i've noticed in highend \"Art Deco\" establishments around Mayfair & especially at the Savoy; the toilet seats are shaped either oblong or square. Most uncomfortable for normal people. Do aristocratic Brits have a different anatomy? | We dined that night in the River Restaurant , service was impeccable from the \"Maitre de\" to our waitress. I went for the Dover sole it was cooked to perfection & presented off the bone. I couldn't have wished for better service & superb food. There was an excellent wine list according to my wife.

I needed to be within walking distance of St. Paul's Cathedral and this hotel fitted perfectly being only half a mile from there. The staff are extremely friendly and genuinely so. The first time I went in the bar the barman knew my name without asking my room number which was a nice little touch. | My room was smaller than I expected for the price. There was just room for the bed, a chaise long and bureau. However the size was ok for the amount of time I spent in the room and because I was on my own, although if I'd been on a trip with my wife or a romantic weekend, I'd be disappointed. | The bathroom was very spacious, strangely so compared to the size of the room. The walk in shower was huge, enough room for three people or one very large person! Everything in the room and hotel was extremely clean and well presented though. | The hotel's name is appropriate because the view from my room was a wall, and from the bar, a wall, and from the restaurant - you guessed it, a wall. Because of it's location in a back lane in the City, the hotel is of course surrounded by high rise buildings and could make some people feel a little closed in. Again though if you're visiting on business or a short stay it doesn't really matter. | The bar is very modern with some comfortable seating but otherwise stools. Not a great atmosphere in there but again it's fine if you want a beer or to relax with a book at the end of a long day. | Over the weekend every surrounding pub, bar and restaurant was closed, even the big chains like Pizza Express which is worth bearing in mind if you want to eat out or drink elsewhere than the hotel, as you'll have to get a cab or walk a while to find somewhere open. | All in all if you're visiting the City of London for some reason or need to be there on business I think this hotel is ideal.

Beds were comfortable, pillows flat but we found that everywhere and an extra one sorted that out easily. The airconditioner was well used as London was pretty hot when we arrived in early September. The bathroom was marble, great tub with jacuzzi settings (excellent after a long day out). We loved the choices at breakfast which was a buffet with cold cheeses and meats, yogurts and tin fruits, and a hot section with various egg dishes, bacon, sausages, mushrooms tomatoes etc. | Our second stay was upgraded from a superior room to another one- but I dont know what it was called. This room was much much bigger than the executive! It had enough space for a settee to watch telly from. All the finishings were as above- no problems at all, and they even set up the mini fridge again with out asking!

The bathrooms were more compact, both rooms had the toilet sandwiched between the bath tub and counter, but it was perfectly fine. No jacuzzi though :) | What really made our stays here lovely was the staff, every one from the reception to concierge were simply lovely and helpful, remembered our names from previous stays and were quick to do anything to make our stay a great one. Upon checking in after our short break in Italy I had the embarrassment of all of my credit cards being declined at reception (my bank froze my linked accounts after suspicious activity in Italy).

The hotel normally takes out the entire amount of your stay plus extra for any items you might purchase- so I think we were very lucky that they accepted this. | The location is great- only a few minutes to Harrods, great Italian cafe Orsini next door and the museums across the road.

As someone who has been to many exceptional hotels in the UK, I like to think that I have pretty much seen it all. On entering, the first thing that stuck me was the genuine smiles of welcome on the faces of the staff. All too often, smiles are forced and welcomes are done as part of the job. This was different. Genuine, heartfelt effort to please. Nothing was too much trouble ... even when the cold windy weather nearly knocked the doorman off his feet. | The d\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdcor was striking and high quality with great attention to detail.

One set in front of a very comfortable, massive bed and the other in a semi-walled off section of the ample room in front of a luxurious sofa. Complimentary nibbles, drinks and also the option of an extremely well stocked mini-bar made for a nice quiet afternoon relaxing before hitting the town. Did I say how conveniently near the tube the hotel is? Well it IS! | The highlight of the room was finding that we had been gifted \"Wally\". Wally is a rubber duck that comes home with the guests and encouraged to travel with them, putting up pictures of his adventures on Facebook. Each hotel in the chain has their own particular duck. Some say that this may be a bit gimmicky, but, personally, I think this is a nice touch and \"Our Wally\" will be joining us on our travels for sure, sharing our adventures.

We booked 2 Art Deco suites and reservations ensured that our rooms were near to each other---the boy's room was down a small flight of stairs and around the corner from our room, which was just perfect. Housekeeping and turndown service are top notch. I sometimes find that housekeeping will start to lag when we are staying for an extended time but not here. | Because we had booked suites, we were entitled to several \"perks\", one of which was butler service. They contacted us before we left home to get our flight details and to see if we had any special requests that they could help out with. Any questions or concerns I had were well taken care of. Another \"perk\" that came with the suites was the use of the hotel cars if available, one a Rolls, the other a Bentley, for local trips as welll as for pick up and drop off at the airport (prearranged). We were able to use them twice and the drivers were most accommodating in talking about the cars they were driving. The butlers we had during our stay were friendly but professional and went out of their way to make us feel at home and to make sure our stay experience was exactly how we envisioned it to be--nothing was too much trouble for them and they had lots of recommendations and suggestions for us. | | Melba's (the new coffee shop) was great for our one son who is an early riser and requires coffee to get going--reasonable prices too. He also tried a sandwich and a pastry and he said they were delicious. They even have a coffee card to earn a free coffee. Our son didn't quite meet the requirements to get his free coffee so he gave his card to someone else. We ate breakfast each morning in Kaspars except for one morning when we had to have room service because we had an early tour and Kaspars wasn't open--room service arrived exactly at the time we requested it and with everything we ordered. We had dinner one night in Kaspars and one night in the Thames Foyer and we were impressed with both the food and service--servers remember you and what you like. One son has several food allergies and it was never any trouble to have the staff check on ingredients for him. Kitchen staff made sure that what was served to him was what he could eat even if it meant they had to prepare something special. We had drinks and appetizers in the Beaufort Bar once and drinks in the American Bar on our last night as a splurge. We enjoyed the music in both bars and service was great. | To finalize, I think what made our stay so enjoyable and memorable was the staff. It didn't seem to matter who you dealt with from Valet at the front, to check out and everyone in between, because they were all so personable, accommodating and yet very professional. | I don't understand why the Savoy doesn't have a higher rating because it is certainly deserving of one. I don't normally write reviews on travel sites (always read them though), preferring to contact the hotel directly with my comments, but after our amazing stay, I'm making an exception. | This is a beautiful hotel and the renovations have only enhanced it's grand character. It's in a perfect spot to see things, alot of which are walkable. The Thames is close by and we used the Hop On\/Hop Off Boat one day to go all the way down the river to Greenwich. We also walked over several bridges close to the hotel--discovered all sorts of things by doing this. Don't forget to come in the \"back door\" and use the Red Elevator.

The attentive, friendly and polite staff immediately came over to our taxi and unloaded our luggage and proceeded to take it into our rooms. We were addressed by our names, escorted inside the beautiful lobby, taken to the private reception area and then given a tour of the hotel and our rooms by another exceedingly gracious employee. We were asked if there was anything we wanted and I ordered water and an ironing board. Soon after, we were delivered treats. I received a lovely strawberry compote\/cookie while my parents received a fruit and cheese plate. Our first impressions were extremely good. All in all, we were welcomed as important guests. If I had only one not positive comment, we didn't get upgraded to a suite as apparently many other customers experience. Otherwise, it was a very gracious and warm welcome to the hotel. | The rooms were absolutely lovely and we were not staying in suites but rather the superior King courtyard Edwardian rooms (the first rooms up from the basic, standard rooms). Although not huge, the ornate rooms were of a decent size and well decorated with curved doors\/walls and striking green glass chandeliers. The marble bathrooms were absolutely gorgeous even though this was not one of the top end rooms. The rooms looked into a garden courtyard and were quiet. | The beds were superb and extremely conducive to a good night's sleep. No problem there. | Given that we signed up for the free President's Club membership, we had free internet and free local phone calls. | There was no tea or coffee maker in the rooms which would have been nice. This had to be ordered from room service for 6 pounds. That said, the presentation was excellent and handled very politely. | The first night included turn down service which was very good. | The housekeeping service the next few days, however, was inconsistent. The next day, the maid did not clean the room until 5:30 p.m. when I returned to get ready for dinner. And because she was so late, it appeared that I didn't get turn down service that night. The following day, the maid was very late for the parents and forgot to remove some dirty glasses in my room. She also forgot to dust the glass shelf by the bar in both rooms. The next day, again, the maid didn't get to the room by late afternoon and we phoned down to talk to somebody. They sent a maid up right away but we were told on the phone that the reason why they were so late with the housekeeping was because we hung \"do not disturb\" signs on our doors. That actually was not accurate; the rooms around us were hanging those signs but not ours and we told this to the housekeeping operator. There may have been a mix up but nevertheless the operator should have apologized and sent over some tea or a desert instead of going on the defensive. Eventually, the rooms were sorted out and the cleaning was done but this inconsistency definitely was a stark contrast (and very apparent in light of) to the excellent service we experienced in all other aspects of this hotel. | The American Bar was very good. I know some customers say that this bar lacks character but I thought it had a great, energetic \"vibe\". The drinks were very good (they didn't stint on the alcohol or the cocktail fruit), the service was prompt and the pianist was fine. | The Savoy Grill dinner was a bit salty for our tastes but I won't factor this restaurant into my rating as this is a independently managed Gordon Ramsay restaurant. Let's just say the dinner was good but not amazing and it should have been amazing given the reputation of the celebrity chef and the restaurant. | On the other hand, the River Restaurant exceeded expectations. The service was outstanding and the food was excellent. The dinner selections were varied and very flavourful. I thought the selection\/preparation of the menu items showed some real creativity. In the future, I'll dine at the River Restaurant versus the Grill. Breakfast was included in our Sunday night package for our last night and one could order anything off the menu (excellent value in my opinion). The breakfast was tasty and very good value as part of the \"Sunday Best\" package. | The concierge was very courteous and helpful. He stacked up well even compared to concierges of other Fairmonts, which normally have very good service. | The departure like our arrival was handled with flair and warmth. After a warm meeting with the reception clerk, bellhops greeted us at our rooms and carefully took our luggage down. The lobby staff said good bye and we left the Savoy as happy customers. | All in all, an excellent stay and we will definitely come back.

The highlight of our London stay. Simply superb!", "Review Text": "My husband and I stayed here for 4 nights whilst attending a conference in London. We were travelling with friends who are well-seasoned 5 star travellers and they chose to stay here rather than their favourite regular London hotel, The May Fair. We absolutely loved our stay at the Corinthia, and our travelling companions have named this as their new favourite! | LOCATION | The location is perfect for sightseeing being situated on the corner of Whitehall Place and Northumberland Ave only 200 metres from Trafalgar Square. Embankment station and pier were situated across the road, National Gallery a 2 minute walk away, the London Eye a 5 minute walk across the river, and Piccadilly Circus, Soho, Downing Street, The Changing of the Guard, Westminster Abbey and the Houses of Parliament with Big Ben were all less than a 10 minute walk away. Whilst the London Tube easily gets you to all the shopping districts, we often chose to walk the pleasant 20-30 minute walk through parks to get to the shopping areas of Regent, Oxford, Bond & Carnaby Sts. Then 3 minutes on the Tube later, and we could shop at Covent Garden. If you plan to get around London on the Tube, then I would recommend purchasing an Oyster Card from the auto dispenser at the station, which comes preloaded with credit. For those that like the tourist London Bus tours, they actually stop directly outside the hotel on Northumberland Ave. | ROOMS | The rooms here are simply divine!! We stayed in an Executive Room for 2 nights, and a Junior Suite for 2 nights. Both were on the 3rd floor, and whilst one looked onto the street and the other into the hotel\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds private central courtyard, both were a quiet oasis in the hustle & bustle of busy London. Both rooms were plush, luxurious, extremely stylish & spacious. This hotel simply oozes class \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd there is an incredible attention to detail throughout the hotel and the rooms \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd everything is perfect, 5-star amenities maintained to the utmost standard. And to our delight when we checked into our room, we were greeted by beautiful flowers, scattered rose petals, cakes, chocolates and champagne as I had previously informed them we were celebrating our anniversary. | Executive Room \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd consisted of a large separate entry area with large BIR, spacious bedroom (king size bed, flat screen TV, minibar, coffee machine, small table & chairs, plush armchairs, plenty of storage & drawer space), and ensuite bathroom with full size separate bath & shower (flat screen TV over bath too). We had lovely views over the trees of Northumberland Ave from both the bedroom and bathroom, with plenty of natural light flooding into the room through the double-glazed windows (yet the room was whisper quiet). The room was superbly furnished with plush carpets, drapes, bed linen. And the attention to detail was realised in the bespoke and tasteful artwork, cushions & furniture. | Junior Suite \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd consisted of a large separate entry & sitting area with flat screen TV, huge bedroom with comfy chairs overlooking a Juliette balcony over the hotel\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds central courtyard. The suite had generously proportioned rooms and was twice the size of the executive room \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd spacious bedroom, large WIR, bathroom with large separate shower & bath. The only disappointing thing was that usually a suite of this size would have an additional toilet\/powder room. | CONCIERGE All the staff at the Corinthia Hotel were excellent, but I must make a special mention and say a huge thanks to the concierge, Suhil, who was amazing and incredibly helpful. He organized fantastic VIP champagne tickets to a sold-out play for the following night (Book of Mormon \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd it was fantastic!), and then arranged a chauffeur limousine to take us there. Everything was efficiently and courteously arranged. Whilst we were already suitably impressed by the Corinthia, Suhil\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds assistance during our stay was the icing on the cake that made us feel like valued guests in this inspiring hotel which frequently hosts the rich and famous! | ESPA \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd The spa at the Corinthia is absolutely amazing and well worth the visit. This amazing complex is set over three underground floors, but the piece de resistance is the basement with its surreal stainless steel swimming pool, plunge pool jacuzzis, and glass-enclosed dry heat sauna. The treatment menu here is pricey, but I don\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt think a visit to this hotel is complete without experiencing the luxurious surroundings at the spa. | VERDICT \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd The attention to every single detail here is evident and nothing is overlooked by the professional Corinthia staff. We even managed to catch sight of a Rolling Stone who was a fellow guest being discretely ushered to his waiting limousine enroute to perform at Hyde park, and I think a place must be good if rock royalty chooses to stay here!

We had been to the Alexander McQueen exhibition several times, and wanted to go for the last weekend before it closed. We decided to stay at the hotel so that we could go at 1am, and we also had tickets for 9am on Sunday. | My daughter had an Executive King room which was beautiful. Very spacious with a huge bathroom. We had The Brompton Suite which was an absolutely gorgeous room. A very comfortable, huge bed, A sumptuous bathroom with a bath and shower stall, and a second small bathroom with a toilet and basin. Large seating area with sofa and chairs and very effective air conditioning. My only quibble about the room is that it describes itself as having 2 balconies, which it does: but the doors are wired to only open a fraction - they can't be used. | The wi-fi was super fast. I downloaded something to my i-phone and it took seconds. Hotel Wi-Fi is often quite poor, but not this one. | There were only 3 things I wasn't impressed with. | The first was when we checked in. I can only assume that the girl who checked us in was either new or training. She asked the name, which I spelt for her, but still took some time to find. She asked for a credit card to take the balance of the charge for the rooms, then handed us our key cards and said \"There you are\". That was it. She didn't ask us if we had any luggage, or tell us about breakfast, point out the lifts, or offer us a newspaper. Absolutely nothing. She focused on getting the money and that was all that she was interested in. A poor welcome when we were spending a lot of money for one night. | The second was when I rang down to order room service. I am used to the room number coming up on the hotel room service system, so had to check when asked for the room number. The girl on the phone said \"It's on the telephone\". I looked but it wasn't there which I said. \"Yes it is, it's on all the bedroom telephones\". I looked again while my husband was shouting out the room number, but there was nothing. I said this again but, for the third time, I was pointedly told that it was there if I checked. Well, to clear this up, IT WASN'T ON THE 'PHONE. | The third was a minor problem with room service. As we were going out late we ordered a light meal at 10.30pm. When it came the garlic bread was missing. The girl who delivered it said there was a party downstairs and it would come up as soon as they could get it ready. I'm not quite sure why it couldn't be made when we also had pasta, a club sandwich and an omelette. It seems strange that probably the quickest thing to provide didn't arrive until 10 minutes later. Also my cheese omelette was a little strange (see photo). It seemed to be filled with a chunk of orange cheese slices that are out on cheap burgers, which didn't melt, almost as if it was a pre-made omelette which had been heated up. Not terribly nice. | Breakfast was included and extremely good. A large selection of pastries and cereals and also a huge hot section with very well cooked bacon, eggs etc. The coffee was delicious, when it can often be quite bitter in hotels, and my daughter had a hot chocolate which was apparently smooth and chocolate-y: not milky like some places. | Checkout was easy and very efficient, so I am sure that we must have had a trainee: but she was our first impression of the hotel before we had had a chance to look around, and it wasn't great. | I would definitely stay there again.

The strongest point of this Hotel for us was the service. Everyone was very well trained, so consistenly we got above average service. Which is very nice because you feel welcomed and at home. | The second characteristic that stood out, during our stay, was the great location. Shopping was next door, with Harvey Nichols in front and Harrods five minutes walk away. Location was very important because the cold weather in february is aggresive and you dont want to wander around too much \"looking\" for places. Also, Knightsbridge is considered the most exclusive and upscale area in town, meaning that you can always get out, and very closely, you will have a high concentration of the better restaurants, cafes, and \"posh\" things to do in town. | The food and the Mandarin is also another great point to this hotel. Bar Boloud is owned by one of the Top Chefs of New York, Daniel Boloud and it's a great place to lunch, considering the quality. The other restaurant in the Hotel is Dinner by Heston. Another, great value really, considering it is the same chef of Fat Duck, among the top 10 restaurants in the world. | The weakest point is, with no doubt, the fact that the Hotel facilities (except for the common areas) are run-down (guest rooms) and that if you are looking for a sleek, modern, (such as recently remodeled Sofitels, for example) you wont find this here. The hotel decoration is very classy, a bit too much, but tolerable. Be aware of the size of the rooms, it is no mistery that there is a strong corelation with high real-state value locations and smaller rooms, dont forget you are paying for being where the action is, so if space its important for you (we travel with 4 suitcases) make sure you check the sizes of the rooms, since is one of your selection criterion.

Our room was stylish and comfortable, the front desk and concierge staff were very friendly, and the location was perfect. Plus we received a free smartphone that allowed us unlimited data and free local and international calls during our stay. | Immediately upon arrival, we could sense that the hotel was upscale and well-maintained. It has a charming fa\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdade and a clean, tasteful lobby. Our check-in was facilitated by Anamaria, who was friendly and professional. She even got us into our room by 10:30am, which was a relief after a long flight all the way from the West Coast of the US. | We were given an executive twin room, which was a good size, especially for a historical building in London. It was surely enough space for two. The beds initially came pushed together, but we were able to easy split them apart for personal comfort. The mattresses and pillows were comfortable - neither too soft nor too hard. The only annoying part was that each day the housekeeping service would push the beds back together and make the beds up as if they were one. The bathroom was absolutely fantastic - one of the best showers either of us have ever used. The glass and tile were sparkling clean, and there was a rainshower as well as a handheld showerhead. The water pressure was intense, and it was perfect for relaxing. We had a view of the quiet street and neighborhood behind the hotel, which meant we didn't get very much street noise. In fact, the hotel was quite quiet overall. The air conditioner had a function to leave the fan running, and that provided just the amount of white noise necessary for a comfortable sleep. | The only reason I am holding off on five stars is that it felt like everything cost a bit extra. There were additional charges for the room upgrade and the early check-in. While that is carefully spelled out, from our experience most hotels will waive one or the other at check-in. There was also a 10-pound nightly charge for having more than 1 guest, which they explained was for the breakfast. This was unfortunate because neither of us ate the breakfast, and there was no option to not include the breakfast. Usually room rates are advertised based on double occupancy, so it was quite a surprise, but not a dealbreaker because the hotel was quite nice and the location was perfect. | I also found the bartender to be a bit rude, as when I sat at the bar he would not offer me a menu but rather told me to go get one off another table. I ended up leaving, so I can't comment further on the service or quality of the bar. | All in all, it was a good experience, and we would surely stay here again!", "Location Of The Reviewer": "Washington", "Date Of Review": "7\/12\/2018" }, { "Property_Name": "The Rembrandt", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "Excelente localiza\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdo", "Review Text": "O hotel est\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd em frente ao Museu Victoria e Albert e pert\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdssimo do Museu de Historia Natural.

Literally (a much over used word) there was a two foot gap at the side of the king sized bed - not a lot of circulation space? | Our only experience of the food was at breakfast - which was a disappointment. A Waitress attempted to deliver my cooked breakfast before my muesli whilst the coffee did not arrive until the former was delivered. For one reason or another, my wife and I both had two poached eggs, mine to accompany my bacon sandwich, my wife's to go on top of her toast. Whilst the bacon was plentiful it was obvious that it had been left under a heat lamp whilst I had the temerity to eat my muesli The more significant issue, however, was that all the poached eggs were firm - not what a poached egg should be, and my wife's toast was dry - not a satisfying experience. | On invitation at the checkout to make comment we did so.The Reception Manager was most concerned at our experience over breakfast and later he responded by email, saying the Kitchen Manager was dealing with the matter, although a one off, and offering us an upgrade and free breakfast if we returned. | At over \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd300 for one night for a small room, it is unlikely we will return but I am sure that many people have wonderful experiences here - perhaps I am becoming too finicky in my old age. | Finally, avoid the rooms looking on to the inner well.

My wife and I stayed as a treat for ourselves to celebrate a 'special day'. | From the moment the door man asked our name, which he quietly radioed ahead and Sebastian strode purposefully across the lobby to great us by name and whisked us to our room to check us in, we knew our weekend was going to be really special. | Our room on the 5th floor was styled in what can be best described in classic modern. In a funny way it reminded me of the private quarters of HM Queen on the Royal Britannia - quiet understated quality. After we had been checked in to the hotel in the our room we decided to have a late afternoon drink in the famous American Bar, festooned with pictures of famous guests. As it was late afternoon on a Friday afternoon there was a pleasant buzz in the bar as people were taking the opportunity to relax a little at the start of the weekend. | My wife had a glass of wine and I took a Vespa Martini. Both were delightful and full of flavour. Now if you think \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd12 for a glass of wine and \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd16 for a martini is somewhat steep you are missing the point. As a price for a drink alone it is expensive - but what you are buying into is the experience, the guy in the black tux gently tickling the piano, the immaculately dressed staff delivering perfect service, soft lighting...everything just perfect. | For dinner we had a reservation the awesome Savoy Grill. Again our welcome and service was just perfect. my snail starter was excellent, very flavoursome and perfectly presented. We both took steaks as mains (it is a Grill), I eat such dishes medium rare, my wife well done. Both were perfectly presented and prepared. Dinner for two with some drinks was @\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd120. | After dinner we went to the Beaufort Bar for a post dinner drink. Whilst it was busy when I mentioned that we were residents an excellent table became immediately available. Once again we enjoyed great service and spent a very pleasant hour or so chatting and listening to a talented lounger singer. | Because of it's location and the iconic nature of the hotel it receives the patronage of a good many people who are not staying at the hotel.

Despite this though we were still not informed of when breakfast was served until finding it on the in-room tablet. Perhaps the heavy inclusion of technology has left a void of simple and more effective mouth t mouth communication. | the room itself was very good with the bed providing a wonderful nights sleep. The bathroom also ranked very highly in our estimations with the marble furnishings and underfloor heating deserving a notable mention. | There was also a smartphone which came with the room and whilst it was useless for us being english and therefore having phones which won't charge, I can appreciate this being a very attractive perk for the Wellesleys foreign clientele. | There were some minor issues which surprised us: The first and most obvious was that there are no tea and coffee making facilities which i find frankly bewildering. Im sure even a Travelodge would have that and most of the top hotels in London I have stayed in have Nespresso machines as well as the basic kettle and various teas. I would expect this for a room costing over \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd500 per night. | If a room with a view is the top criteria, then I would suggest looking elsewhere: even on the higher floors, the view is restricted so much so that the bottom half of the window was greyed out. | The bar has an extensive list of fine cocktails which of the ones we had, were enjoyed greatly. The range of cigars is also as vast in quantity as quality. | The service was very good with the overall impression being one of great professionalism and politeness. | Another minor annoyance was that the hotel Rolls Royce is only there on certain days with an Audi A6 taking the role when it is absent. Despite the obvious robustness of the car, no luggage was allowed eliminating any possibility of using it to check out leaving me to wonder if it was in fact a Lotus Elise outside instead (to my bewilderment it was definitely the 5 door Audi!) | An important point of information would be the extensive permeation of cigar smoke from the outside areas which whilst not bothering me, I would strongly warn anyone with smoke sensitivities to avoid booking here. | Overall, We enjoyed our stay although there is a fair gulf between the standard setting hotels in London and the Wellesley and so I would probably not return and instead spend slightly more for a better ratio of value to money spent.", "Location Of The Reviewer": "Birmingham, United Kingdom", "Date Of Review": "2\/9\/2017" }, { "Property_Name": "Corinthia Hotel London", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "Excellent Services", "Review Text": "My decision to choose the Corinthia Hotel was right as the services by the staff was excellent.

We have been trying to maintain our Fairmont President's Club premier tier membership for a while now, but I having serious doubt about whether or not it's worth continuing with the rapid degradation in the service it provides while the cost of staying at Fairmont hotels continues to hike. | For this stay, we called the Fairmont President Club member reservation assistance line to book the four night getaway to use our \"complimentary room upgrade\" that we got for being Premier tier members, and we are not aware of any packages whatsoever as the booking was handled by the agent on the phone. Please note that none of the other \"perks\" are applicable to the Savoy such as third night free. | I would like to mention that we were quite satisfied last time we stayed at this hotel almost exactly a year ago. Last year, we booked a similar room category and upon arrival, we were offered to sit down to go through the check-in process. The person handled our check-in acknowledged that we have been long term Fairmont guests, and that we are Fairmont President's Club premier tier members and offered us complimentary breakfast. | Our experience this time was vastly different. We arrived at the hotel to check-in around 15:00. We made our way to the check-in area and were made to stand during the entire check-in process. We had been traveling and had heavy backpacks and other luggage with us at the time. The person who handled our check-in had no idea we stayed at the same hotel the year before and that we are Fairmont President's Club Premiere tier members. Nothing special was offered - not even daily newspaper. Needless to say, this whole experience felt like checking into a Holiday Inn. Towards the end of the check-in process, we met the customer relations manager Jayne Wilkinson who talked to us briefly and welcomed us to the hotel. | The room was quite okay. We had a partial river view room in the \"Edwardian\" side of the hotel accessible via the \"oldest lift\" in London. There's nothing special about the \"Luxury King\" room, however, for the price they charge. Living space is standard and there is no dual vanity in the bathroom. There is not even a separate tub. The only window in the room offers partial river view and it is really quite small. Overall, not impressed with the room and the technology or lack thereof makes the place feel rather dated. | Onto the housekeeping, during our stay, housekeeping staff had never refilled any of the toiletries. On the second day of stay, I had to call housekeeping to request shower gel. We used some mouthwash that was supplied and it was not refilled either. We had to again call housekeeping to request a refill. We both felt this was odd for a Fairmont hotel and simply unacceptable for any five star establishment - let along the iconic Savoy palace. | All the other staff are great, however, from doormen to concierge. We had pleasant interactions with them and they were all extremely helpful and friendly. The night shift concierge in particular was incredibly helpful and fun to chat with! | Another thing I would like to mention is that asking for a bottle of water or just a bucket of ice from the Room Service department costs five pounds. Although the water and bucket of ice are complimentary, just to have them brought to your room costs you, which I thought was rather odd as I have never had to pay for room service to bring up some ice and I have stayed in a lot of upscale properties. | During our stay, it was apparent that the hotel was very understaffed. There is a LOT of traffic through their lobby every day. It seemed to us that if you are not well-dressed you do not get any attention\/greetings at all from the staff. We were pretty much invisible during our stay since we normally don't pack any fancy clothes while we go on month long vacation. Perhaps it is normal for central London hotels? The lobby is usually filled with people in their fancy outfits. | We also voiced our concerns during our stay in regards to the check-in process and lack of any acknowledgement and courtesy to their long time FPC members whatsoever, and all we got was a bottle of champagne in our room with a note that says they are sorry. We did get an email from the customer relations manager Jayne Wilkinson after we departed to assure us that they will make our experience right next time with special offers, but unfortunately it is too little too late. We would have preferred if they tried to do something during our stay instead of after since we stayed there for almost a week. | All in all, this was a very disappointing display, and I am having doubts about maintaining my loyalty to Fairmont hotels. There is a lot of history in the building itself and I get why people get excited when they stay in such a property, but it really is poor value for the money. | Fairmont should take a hard look at some other membership benefits such as Leader's Club which offers complimentary room upgrades and breakfast for all bookings with a small annual fee which we really love. The membership pays for itself after just a stay or two. | It saddens me greatly to say this, but I would not recommend the Savoy until Fairmont get their act together.

THe burgers are also delicious. The Rumpus Rooms is my favourite cocktail bar in London. The sumptuous decor with spectacular views over the river together with amazing cocktails make it a winner. Again, make sure you book. | Price - This place is expensive. It's not Ritz \/ Dorchester expensive but the rooms are around \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd300 per night.

We\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdve been here before in summer 2010 when it was renovating and was not impressed, but decided to give it another chance anyway given its proximity to Harrods (and we figured that the renovations are done by now). Turns out, it was just as disappointing post renovation. Indeed, are they sure they had any renovation work done at all? With the exception of a new livelier place for breakfast (in the form of the Heston by Blumenthal restaurant), everything looked the same. | The last time we arrived at the hotel by hotel car, the hotel staff greeted us at the reception and immediately took us to our room for in-room check-in (as most top hotels do). I was disappointed to note that no one was there to greet us this time, even though they were clearly not swamped (this is 7am in the morning! Clearly they were just lazy!). We were further disappointed to note that our rooms were not only not connected, but not even on the same floor, even though we specifically requested it a few weeks ahead when we booked, and reiterated it before we arrived. I can tell that the staff did try their best to accommodate us, but you\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdd think they can do better than that with 2 - 3 weeks notice! Maybe they just need to use a better planning system. Apparently if you want connecting rooms, you have to book 6 months ahead!! | We had 3 rooms at the hotel; one Hyde Park Junior suite, one Knightsbridge room and one regular double room. We booked under American Express, so the Hyde Park Junior Suite and the Knightsbridge room are \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdsupposed\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd to be upgrades, but it didn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt really feel like it. I actually asked what the difference was, and apparently they size is the same, but the \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdbonus\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd was in the view, which is a peaceful view of the Hyde Park greenery. Being city people and avid shoppers, we actually prefer the more vibrant view of Harvey Nichols. The suite itself was a slightly larger version of regular rooms. If we didn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt know better we\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdd have thought that THIS was the Knightsbridge room. We couldn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt really tell the difference between the Knightsbridge room and the regular room. The rooms itself looked exactly the same as it did pre-renovation, very old British\/ Victorian. I guess they\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdre trying to preserve the identity of the hotel? To me, that means old and stuffy, with small nods to modern luxuries. To be fair, they did have a B&O flat screen and a modern touch screen telephone. But the overall d\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdcor of the room just felt very rundown and shabby (i.e. the front door looked really well-worn and scratched). The biggest problem I had though was the bathroom, which is poorly designed with bad plumbing. The shower is part of the tub. Except the tub does not have any curtains, but a paltry glass partition that covers maybe 1\/3 of the length of the tub. So you can imagine what a challenge it is to shower without getting water all over the place. There is a rain shower and a mobile shower head option. Except there is no place to hold the mobile shower head while you\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdre washing yourself down. So you either freeze while you wash, or you opt to get dunked from overhead. The shower head itself was also weak. And many a times, I worried that the drain was not working! These are just not the type of concerns one should have at a five star hotel, paying 800+ pounds per night! I was not the only one complaining about the un-impressiveness of our room. While I was checking out, I noticed the secretary of a VVIP back in my hometown complaining about their suites, and heard the staff tell them that it was already an upgrade blah blah blah. At least they treat everyone the same? | We were also frustrated that even as guests of the hotel, we were unable to get a reservation at the Heston by Blumenthal restaurant, even though we\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdd tried booking 2 weeks ahead and were waitlisted, and had followed up with the front desk and the restaurant several times before that. I\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdm sure even the Ritz London reserves places for afternoon tea for their in house guests in lieu of requiring them to make reservations 3 month in advance. Indeed, I was talking to staff at the MO Paris, and they too save a few seats for in-house guests at their popular Sur Mesure restaurant. | Speaking of which, MO Paris is far far superior to MO London both in terms of quality of service and the hotel. Let\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds just focus on the service, since it is not the hotel staff\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds fault that their rooms are old and stuffy. I asked MO London whether they can waive our internet charge. Seriously, I don\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt even know why hotels still charge you for internet. Internet connection is such an essential of daily life it is like charging you for channels on the TV. You\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdd think it should be included considering the price we\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdre paying per night (take back the Nespresso machine!). But I guess they try to make money off you wherever they can. Anyway, their answer was no. Upon further inquiry the answer was still no. Apparently, it is a company policy amongst all MO hotels. Well, my dear staffs of MO London, the reception at MO Paris waived my internet charge without me even asking! What do you have to say for yourself? It is not about the money, but about hospitality and making the guest feel special. That\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds what the business is all about! I mean over all, the staff was polite and helpful (as they should be). But I felt that they were too rigid, and didn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt really go the extra mile to make you feel at home. i.e. the doorman only \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdoccasionally\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd came out with an umbrella to shade you from the rain as you get out of the car. No one even helped me with my many bags when I came back from a shopping trip. In comparison, the staff at MO Paris recognized us from our last visit, and was the epitome of hospitality. I\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdve also been to MO Geneva, and the service there was impeccable as well. They should really do an exchange program or something, so the staff can learn from each other to ensure a consistent good quality in all their hotels.

I would love to give The Rembrandt a completely glowing review, but my experience would seem to indicate that it's not necessarily which hotel you stay in, but which room you are assigned in any given hotel. When I first got to my fifth floor room of the Rembrandt, I would say that my feeling was of resigned, but mild disappointment. The room was badly dated, a bit tattered, smelled weird, and had unsightly stains on the ceiling. I was ok with it though, because despite all that, the bathroom and the sheets seemed reasonably clean and the hotel is in a good location. Then, on my first morning there, I was woken up at about 7:00 am by loud, jocular conversation in the room next to mine. I figured that this was just a couple of guys packing up to leave, but then there were more voices, and louder talking. At about 8:00 am, someone started a circular saw that sounded like it was literally inches from my head. A few moments later there was hammering so loud that it really sounded as though they were coming through the wall. This was obviously intolerable. I sometimes like to stay out a bit late when I am on vacation and I occasionally like to have the luxury of sleeping until 10:00. When I complained at the front desk, the staff couldn't have been any more accommodating. They offered a genuine apology, and upgraded me to a Superior room. This room was fresh, clean, quiet and comfortable.Although I must say that if I had been paying the Superior price I may have been a bit disappointed. They describe these rooms as \"garden view\", but they really look out on the back of the hotel. So if you are considering a stay at this hotel in the near future, I would recommend that you insist on a room that has already been rennovated, which probably means a room on one of the lower floors. If you have a decent room, this hotel is a pretty good value: good location , professional staff, nice breakfast buffet, and reasonably priced by London standards. You should be aware that the hotel attracts an older crowd. I am forty, and seemed to be one of the younger guests.

I looked at the reviews and have walked past it many times so thought I would try it. The location is great if you like Kensington. | Check in was fine. I was asked if I wanted papers in the morning, to which I ordered 2, then was told I would have to pay for them. At the price I paid for the room, they did not include a newspaper, amazing. So I still ordered the papers. I asked what time they recommended I go down for breakfast, to avoid waiting. Breakfast starts at 7am till 10am. Their recommendation was to go between 7 and 8am. I knew there to be a problem with the size of the breakfast room, but did not expect I would have to be so early. I was also given 2 free tickets for the health club, in with the package, otherwise you have to pay \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd7.00. So on a normal tariff, you have to pay for newspapers and to swim, which at \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd189 the full price tariff, is scandalous. | The room was supposedly an Executive Double. To be honest I would hate to see a normal double. The room reminded me of the old Trusthouse Forte rooms in the Cumberland, OK but nothing special and very small. The room should have been set for 2 people as Mrs C should have been coming, but in reality it was set for 1 person. The air conditioning sounded like an aircraft taking off when on cool so decided to open windows instead. The room was OK but nothing special. | The bathroom on the other hand had not been cleaned properly. There were black long hairs in the bath. I mentioned it to the front desk on my wait out but nothing was done on my return. | In the evening I went to the health club for a swim. The club is small and below ground level so is very dark. The sauna was cold so tried the steam room, which was good. The gym was limited with only a few cardio machines and very limited weights. The pool was small but warm. The jacuzzi was just bubbles. A matter of concern for me as a lawyer, was on the steps into the jacuzzi, a sharp metal piece of the step was bent upwards and could easy cut someone. I reported it and was told it was not a priority. He had pointed it out to the manager of the club but nothing had been done. I said to him that its a danger, and he confirmed someone had cut their finger open the week before. I think this sums up the service...OK and polite but in reality couldn't really care less. | When going to bed I noticed how thin the walls must be. My next door neighbour decided to conduct a business meeting with someone in LA via his mobile, until 3am. You could hear every word. No soundproofing, on a new remodelled room......in the modern world sound proofing of walls can be done in old hotel rooms. | I woke up, opened my doors to collect my papers and no papers. Went for breakfast, which was OK, standard London buffet style, when it was quiet at 7am. Then went back to bed to try and get some sleep. At 8.30 housekeeping began to service the room next door to me and again you could hear everything, banging doors and hoovering. I had a Do Not Disturb sign on the door but they ignored this and knocked. I do think cleaning rooms so early is totally unacceptable, why so early when it disturbs other guests? At 9.30 I decided to leave the hotel. I still had not received my newspapers. When asked if all was OK, I went through the dirty bath that had not been cleaned, the sound proofing, dangerous step on jacuzzi and the lack of newspapers. The response to dirty bath, \"I will inform housekeeping\". No apology. To the jacuzzi, \"That's separate\" well no its not its owned by the hotel and is a health and safety risk. On the newspapers, \"What's the problem, you were not charged for them\". The cleaning at 8.30 and soundproofing \"That's not our problem\". | So how would I sum up this hotel. On the face of it, all the staff I met, apart from the check out receptionist were very friendly on the surface. Behind this face, nothing was really done, no real service was offered. The room was overpriced for what was given. Executive rooms are small and standard, nothing special. The Hotel is simply a standard 4 star building with poor customer care. I look for hotels that offer small things in rooms and give just that little bit extra in terms of service. This hotel does not give any of these things, but its also not bad. If you can get a clean room in the region of \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd100 to \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd120, I think it would be OK. The prices the hotel tries to charge are too high given what is provided.

We arrived around 3pm and were greeted outside by the valet who gave us a ticket for my car. We were shown to reception and checked in. The hotel knew it was our anniversary, as I had mentioned it when I booked. They walked us to our room and gave us a guided tour of the hotel on the way. We were on the fifth floor, looking out onto the apartments next door. Our room was lovely, very chic and absolutely spotless. The mini bar was a piece of art, containing our own Nespresso machine. The bathroom was very modern with a bath, a large overhead shower and candles to make it all very romantic. We had a coffee and headed out to explore the local shops, which appear to stay open until 6pm on a Sunday. We returned later to get ready for a meal we had booked in a restaurant around the corner, made a coffee and headed down to the bar for a drink before we went for our meal. the bar was busy, with only chairs free at the bar, so we sat there and ordered a couple of drinks. The bar stocks many drinks, including my favourite gin (Monkey 47), so I was very happy. After our meal we noticed that the hotel has free sweets in the lobby seating area, so we scooped up some cola bottles to take home for our Son. Our room had been completely tidied up, which made it feel fresh again. We also had a lovely anniversary cake in the room, but as we had eaten we asked if they could put it in the fridge until we left and they sent someone up to collect it. We over indulged at dinner and didn't have the best nights sleep ever, but had a good lie in. The one thing that really struck us was how silent the room and the whole hotel was, and this was especially apparent when we headed out that morning, as the traffic noise was high outside. So the insulation is excellent. We hardly heard a thing all night, even the air conditioning is very silent. We didn't have breakfast in the hotel. As we wanted to see the shops a bit before leaving, we asked if we could check out at 1pm, and they were happy to accommodate us.

Sparkling and still water, plus snacks Pringles, Jellybeans etc were all complimentary and well stocked every day. | Bathroom was very large and modern, huge bath and separate shower, great selection of Elemis products and of course the cute rubber duck...yours to take home. | One night we ate in the restaurant Off the Wall, and the Chef opened up early for us as we were going to an early show, the food was excellent and reasonably priced. The waitress was lovely, I forgot to get her name. Thanks again. | I really couldn't fault anything, if pushed I'd probably say its a little too hot in the rooms, but we could control that and had opening windows (unusual for London), so not really a fault.

Pure luxury from start to finish! We were incredibly fortunate to be upgraded to a suite, but even without this extra bonus this would have been a first class experience. | Positives: | - Service level. Absolutely top notch - friendly and expert staff. Our room had a 'personal host' facility, in which a member of the team was always on hand to answer questions or sort any issues. There were so many nice touches - e.g. the complimentary macaroons left in the room at tea time. | - Room quality. The style is a modern take on art deco - very attractive but also feels modern and slick. If you're seeking classic English hotel ornate decor then this isn't for you, but we really liked the aesthetic of the rooms. The specification was of the highest quality, with lighting, blinds etc. all controlled from a high-tech telephone unit. The room even included an iPad full of information. Our suite was huge - more space than you'd ever need. | - Food. Breakfast was exquisite - every item seemed expertly prepared and I really cannot find any criticism. Very tasty - with every possible food type available - and in no way stodgy or greasy. | A few small criticisms: | - Temperature control. Our room was too warm at night - my wife struggles to sleep if it's too hot. We phoned up to report the fault and they made lots of effort to fix it (sent round engineers etc.) but it was never properly sorted. | - Internet speed. I thought the free WiFi was a little slow. There were options to pay for a faster service (which I didn't take), but the free service was disappointing for downloading films etc. | - Gym\/Facilities. There isn't a swimming pool at either the Dorchester or 45 Park Lane, which I think is a shame for such a five star hotel. We used the gym at the Dorchester (which we had access to even though we were staying at 45PL) but it was a small room in the basement and ill-equipped - surprising for such a prestigious hotel. | - The CUT steak restaurant. We ate here on the Saturday night. The service quality was very high, and we enjoyed our meal, but it probably isn't the best steak restaurant in London (when compared with Goodman, Hawksmoor etc.). I found it quite expensive and the wine list was heavily marked-up. | Overall, the positives far outweighed the criticisms.

I did do quite a bit of research and was not surprised by some of the issues we had during our stay. We expected steps and no elevator just by reading other reviews. Others who traveled said that the staff assisted them with their luggage so the steps were not a problem. This was not the case during our stay. The man who checked us in offered to help us to our room which we graciously accepted. He then proceeded to walk in front of us on the stairs carrying nothing but our key while I made four trips to the fourth floor carrying my families luggage. By assistance he meant opening the room door for us when we got to it. | The room was sufficient for my family . We expected a small sized room due to already having lowered our expectations after talking to friends who had traveled to London. We stayed in the Quad room and initially had a problem with the TV. The staff did respond right away and fix the TV. I did have an opportunity to speak with Mr. Crias, the owner, who was very knowledgeable about the city. He did say that he caters the hotel more toward families because other hotels do not allow them. On our last night, a large group of teens arrived at the hotel. They ran up and down the steps yelling until around 3am. | When we finished packing to leave in the early morning hours, I noticed that the strap for my luggage($8 cost) was missing. We searched the room and our luggage but did not locate it. At our next destination in Scotland we again searched our belongings but did not find it. I then spoke with family members who had stayed at the same hotel while we were there. My mother reported missing small amounts of money that she had set aside for her grandchildren. She knew the exact amounts because they were supposed to be a gift. She noticed on the night before we checked out that the larger coin denominations (ie. 2 pound, pound, 50 pent) were gone but the small change was left. | It appears that the cleaning staff may have sticky fingers as they appear to steal small items. This is probably because most incidents would go unreported. | All in all I would not recommend this hotel.

What makes this hotel so worth staying at is the exemplary welcome and assistance you will receive from every member of staff, from the minute you arrive with Bob and his colleagues welcoming you, to Paula and her team in reception to Greg and chaps on concierge, all the staff in the Thames Foyer restaurant and American Bar. Housekeeping is simply the best and couldn't do enough for me spoiling me so much, ie bringing me a tray of tea-bags\/coffee each day with a kettle. I needed a lot of pillows to prop up my foot, asked for things be left in an accessible way and no matter who was doing my room, they did it exactly right \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd wonderful! I had a deluxe King and it is a good size. The food\/drinks are indeed expensive but you are paying for extraordinary service, some things even seem cheap to me, there is some value to be had believe me! At the weekend the hotel is full of locals enjoying birthdays\/special occasions and I quite enjoyed the divarification of the hotel Monday to Friday vs Friday to Sunday. The one thing so fabulous is the way they greet their guests, it's as if you are coming into their home. I witnessed an elderly couple arrive looking excited yet a tad apprehensive, given a beautiful welcome by the doorman, reception hall and main reception, it was wonderful to witness\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdI wanted to hug them for being so kind. Each area of the hotel is different, you can have totally refined, sophisticated elegance in the Thames Foyer, to modern bling in the Beaumont, excellence in the American Bar (best staff in any bar anywhere) and superb service with the classics in the Savoy Grill. I'm glad they have so much choice as I was there about 12 days and was never bored. All the staff is extremely passionate and do their utmost to take care of you. I miss them all. Do remember to give some small cash tips, if you can, they do appreciate it so much. | Sadly, my stay was marred by excessive noise; I\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdm still bewildered as nothing was done about it. I was recovering from ankle surgery and for me it was an expensive stay, I chose the Savoy as I needed proper rest. Instead I was woken by hoovers (before 6.00am!) staff in high-heels clacking away on the high polished floor (right next to my room) until late in the night, starting again very early morning, a loud repetitive banging noise over several nights, guests shouting until 1-2am, etc. They said there was no \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdequivalent\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd room to move me, (OHHH they offered to move me to a lower classification smaller room yet I\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdd have to keep the same price and be FAR from the lift but I was in a wheelchair, so I said no thank you); I was offered earplugs. One chap suggested to me that I was after an upgrade. Unbelievable.

It was a good size (for European hotels) and the 3 of us did not feel cramped in there, even though there was a cot in the room for our daughter. We did not have a nice view, as there was construction next door but that didn't affect our stay. The beds were very comfortable and we loved the duvets. Turndown was appreciated every night, with water and slippers provided. There were 2 armchairs to relax in and a desk to do our work on. TV was a nice flat screen. There was a refreshment centre and a Nespresso, which we enjoyed. AC worked well. There was a hallway closet which was big enough for the 3 of us. The only problem I had was that the safe's door faced the wrong way, so it was really difficult to put things in and take things out. You almost have to climb into the closet completely to reach the safe. You might want to fix that (room 204).

I have been to many hotels and spas globally, and can honestly say the Corinthia's spa is the best hotel spa I've ever seen.

In addition to the sleep pods, there are sitting areas throughout the spa, which means there is always somewhere to sit with a magazine for a quiet read. And the changing rooms were very plush and discrete, unlike many locker rooms where it feels like you're changing right in front of everyone. The treatment rooms themselves are very spacious and the treatments very nice. The pool area has much to offer, including a large heated jacuzzi pool, and large sauna and steam room. If you're someone who prefers more privacy, there are also single sex sauna and steam rooms in the male and female changing rooms. | We did not eat in the hotel, but we did take a stroll through and were very impressed by the spaciousness and lovely decor. | I happen to work for a property investment company, so I am familiar with hotels and the requirement for attention to detail, both in the physical surroundings and service.

It's a very British institution, and really is a place for a special visit, as one of the 2 most famous old-style hotels in London (the other is the Ritz).There are 2 styles of rooms, art deco and Edwardian, and we selected the art deco room. From stepping into the hotel, it was like a step back in time to a more elegant and refined era, where people had plenty of time to enjoy life. It's not aiming to compete with up to date business hotels, and the leisure area is pretty small (especially the pool) so go elsewhere if you want that. | We had an excellent room, and the only jarring note was the enormous TV dominating the room. We had lunch at the Savoy Grill, which was good, and cocktails at the American Bar. This was a nice experience as we asked one of the staff the way to the Bar, and they took us there, and wafted us past the waiting queue as we were guests. There was a very good pianist, and a nice atmosphere. Cocktails were fairly pricey, but cocktails came with a nice big complimentary dish of very tasty olives and nuts. | The hotel has to strike a tricky balance between being a refined and elegant hotel, but without appearing to be formal and stuffy, and yet keeping up with modern trends, which for the most part, they do successfully. The staff are there to help, and it's best just to ask their advice about things - e.g. what ingredients are in a cocktail, what's the difference between martinis being shaken or stirred. | It's not jacket and evening dress, but it is smart casual, rather than casual, so most people do make an effort to dress up a little bit, and avoid jeans and trainers. There were however quite a few people just wearing t-shirts at breakfast, which is a bit of a pity, as it doesn't fit in with the atmosphere of the place. | Breakfast was good, though service wasn't that attentive, and our toast was cold - however, they willingly brought hot toast when we asked. | Overall, it was expensive, but not unreasonably so, and prices were pretty much on a par with many other 5-star hotels. | It met our expectations very well, and we really enjoyed it. We just had a one-night stay, and it was worth it to experience what it's like to be a guest in a London landmark. | If you're not from London, the location is ideal for theatres and the main sights, but not worth selecting just for the location, as there are many centrally located hotels.", "Location Of The Reviewer": "Sheffield, United Kingdom", "Date Of Review": "1\/22\/2012" }, { "Property_Name": "Bulgari Hotel, London", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "Flawless", "Review Text": "Perfect location if you are visiting London for shopping and nice restaurants.

My recent stay at the London property was a treat, wonderfully appointed rooms, well maintained public spaces, great decor, amazing floral arrangements. My only gripe is the lack of attention to detail for a new 5 star hotel. | I booked a transfer from the airport to the hotel, upon my arrival I was greeted by name by the doorman, Philippe from reception was at the door waiting for me, after brief formalities, he showed me around the property and then escorted me to my room. | The Executive room (upgraded) was exceptional, spacious, well appointed, large walk-in closet, huge bathroom with a TV by the bath. The ony thing I did not like was the lack of an alarm in the room and absence of an i-pod docking station to listen to ones' own music. | Bed seemed a little short for me. Pillows a little high. | Massimo was an impressive dining room, service good and food to match. | Breakfast the next day was a little sloppy, toast was served before the eggs arrived and it is a pity the guest is not asked what kind of toast he would prefer. So when my eggs did arive the toast was invariably cold. It is such a nice touch to offer a choice of salted and unsalted butter in all the restaurants but it would have been nice if this was pointed out to the guest. Likewise there is a nice 'buffet' presentation in the room adjoining the breakfast room which I think would be nice to indicate to the guest. | On subsequent visits for breakfast the hostess rather than recognizing me as an in house guest continued to ask me for my room number. When I asked for crispy bacon, it was served not as I had expected. | Dinner at Northall was great the first time and sloppy on the second visit. Ordering oysters, it was accompanied with a bottle of tobasco sauce with its seal still intact and when the dish was cleared upon my finishing it, the manager decided to shower my table and floor with some ice shavings - perhaps the plate had too much ice or it had melted. When the bill arrived I was charged for 3 glasses of wine not the 2 that I actually consumed. The manager in good faith promptly removed the beverage charges but alas the damage was done. | Trivial as these may seem, they show a lack of attention to detail, a pitty for an otherwise great hotel with so much potential to attract new clients and build a loyal return guest. I am on the road for business 6 months of the year and such details do not escape me. If one pays to stay in a top notch hotel with prices to match, the service should be impeccable and flawless. | The Basson bar was a real treat - the staff here were top notch, well trained - Domenico the manager ever so gracious with clients. Handsome room with much attention to exquisite detailing in the furnishings. Suberbly astute bartenders a rare find, mixed such delicious cocktails. | Head Conceirge Jennifer was great in undertaking some personal errands for me, not to mention Hope who was as cordial. My only suggestion here would be that there be a weekly list of the hottest plays, concerts, must see list that is avaliable for guests. | The spa was such a treat, on 4 floors it is one of the largest I have seen, I recommend this as a must stop for any in house guest. | The managers Michelango, Maud and Isabel had quite an earful from me, were ever so attentive to my I hope constructive feedback, and I must say were most apologetic of the short comings and appreciative. Upon my check out I received a lovely note from Maud and a thoughtful gift, welcoming me back to the hotel soon. | On the whole I did have an exceptional stay at the hotel, it is a great hotel, stylish, chic, great location and must conclude that I was most impressed with the hotel, it is truly well appointed.

We were so happy with our choice. First, if you are want to see the NYE fireworks (which are fantastic by the way), this is such a great, great spot to do it from. We had a late dinner and strolled outside 5 minutes before the big show. It was the best way to do it! So much fun and no need to stand outside freezing. Beyond that, the hotel was just perfect in every way. We stayed in an executive king room. It was large and very well designed with a beautiful bathroom. There is an entry foyer which buffers the hallway door from the bedroom and an actual door between the foyer and the room. This makes the room quiet, immune from the dreaded hallway noise (if you have read any of my other reviews you will notice quietness of the room is a HUGE thing for me and this configuration--hallway door, foyer, bedroom door-- is one that I love and think all great hotels should have). In fact, this was the quietest hotel room I think we have ever stayed in; we even joked that we must have been the only occupied room on the 4th floor since we never heard a sound from anyone else the entire time we were there. The hotel is surrounded by government buildings so at night it's very quiet and we slept great every night. The fabulous thing is that even though it's in this quiet location, the hotel is still surrounded by everything you could want: trafalgar square, the west end (theaters), historic sites (big ben etc), the river thames, and a subway station right across the street. The service was top notch, we had room service probably 8 times while we there and it was great every time. We also ate in the lounge area and enjoyed that too. The spa\/fitness area was superior to most european hotels I have stayed in and was very posh. The hotel was decorated for the holidays and was so festive and lovely.

I was attending a course over the road in the Marriott which was fully booked. | The reception \/ bar \/ restaurant and rooms are all very stylish and the Xenia is a very nice place to be for a few nights. | The staff are eager to please which is just as well since there are still some new hotel teething problems. | When checking in, I asked about the possibility of having a room with a bath. This invoked a manual process with lots of paperwork which seemed surprising but did indeed yield a twin room with a bath. The receptionist actually took me to see the room before committing which was unusual but welcomed. | My room was one of the smallest I have ever stayed in but this was not unexpected for London. My view was of an adjacent wall but I could see a bit of Sainsbury's if I stood right by the window. It was OK for a few nights but would not be so great for a longer stay. | The much vaunted tablet was very stylish but within a few minutes I'd turned it off and put it in a drawer to gain some extra space on the table. Be aware that the tablet is locked down to a limited set of hotel specific pages and general web use is not supported. So, it\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds a nice idea but not very useful. I was glad that I had taken my own laptop. | The table and chair were stylish but the vertical gap between the seat of the chair and the base of the table was ridiculously small. I'm small but could not put my legs under the table. So, I had to sit sideways to the table. This was OK for checking a few emails but anything else would quickly become uncomfortable. So, this is definitely not a hotel to use if staying on business and needing to work at night. | There was a nice large (32\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd) Samsung Freeview TV with an accessible HDMI socket if you want to connect a media streamer or laptop. Bring an extension lead though since there were no power sockets close to the TV. | The kettle and tea\/coffee making items were on a tray inside the wardrobe but there was no power socket there, so I had to plug the kettle in near the bed and take the kettle back to the wardrobe to make the tea. Not ideal. | The clock\/radio\/speaker supports 3.5mm stereo aux in and bluetooth (it has a USB port but I think that\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds just for charging). It looked good but was tricky to operate. I had to download the instruction manual and still had to cycle the power to get it to set the time correctly. It has some firmware issues apparently. | The bathroom was stylish but the bath was short and very shallow. I'm small but struggled to get the water to cover me. Also, the shelf above the sink was very small. There's plenty of room for a bigger shelf so its a shame this was not provided.(Do the people who design hotel rooms ever stay in them?) | Service was very good. I had a problem with one of the electrical sockets (it fell off the wall!) but it was replaced the next day. One evening I found that housekeeping had not left any milk sachets. I called reception and some were delivered in less than 5 minutes. Also every evening there was a turn-down service (don\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt really like them but not enough to stop it) and they also delivered a very nice little cake (I really do like them so definitely didn't complain). | One of the security guys on the front entrance was a bit over-keen at first and chased me through reception to the lifts. Now this is Kensington (hardly a dodgy area) and the lift can only be operated with a room key. I've stayed in some hotels around the world with armed guards and have never been chased through reception before. Still, they are taking security seriously I suppose. | I didn't use the restaurant as there are plenty of much cheaper options within walking distance and I like to get out in the evening. I also declined the \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd30 breakfast on principle. | So, cheaper than the Marriott and very convenient for functions taking place there. It is all nice and new and stylish but some things haven\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt been thought through. Once the novelty and newness wears off, some of the impracticalities may tip the balance against it.

We travel to London a few times a year and normally stay at Le Meridien, but had such an amazing, relaxing stay at The Wellesley that we will only be staying here. Everything was perfect and the hotel truly has thought of every tiny detail that could make you more comfortable. For example, there are plugs built into the nightstands (why more hotels haven't done this is unclear) as well as a full light control panel to make it easy to turn the lights on and off from the lovely, cozy bed. The bathroom floors are heated and the shower has 2 heads, a lot of space, and a door that doesn't leak at all. Even the nicest hotel showers sometimes have doors that leak. The linens are all top of the line as well. The TV includes loads of movies for free, which is nice if you want some down time. The curtains close tightly and no light peeks through, allowing you to sleep in if you'd like. The rooms are silent - which I really appreciated. I stay in hotels frequently for work or pleasure, and one of my biggest issues with hotels is when I can hear doors slamming or the person above me in the bathroom.

What made it so exceptionally special was not just the fabulous interior, a very convenient location right next to Knightsbridge tube station, cosy and comfortable rooms, and excellent dining facilities, but also the staff who were amazingly friendly and helpful. Knowing it was my friend's birthday they provided a surprise in the room - a cake and card; and when they made a slight mistake they also added a complimentary bottle of champagne. Everything we asked for was attended to immediately and without fuss. For instance, the pillows were not to our liking on the first night, so they brought up a selection of all the available options from the pillow menu for us to try and choose. What a difference that made to the other nights! | The rooms were standard ones but were still better than many at similar hotels. The warmth was kept at an even temperature without effort, water and apples were constantly replenished, the carpet was a delight to the feet, the bedroom slippers much better than you usually get, the toiletries were of a very high standard and the room was well serviced morning and evening. As a special touch, the glasses in the room were crystal! | A real bonus is the excellent fitness centre in the basement. At the time of writing this was very new, about a month old. Clearly they had thought of everything. This was not just another gym with the usual equipment, but the facilities were first class, including swimming pool, sauna and steam room, relaxation beds, wonderful showering facilities and all you could want in terms of extras to make it a fantastic experience. As before, the staff there are very attentive, friendly, and keep the place spotless. | The Heston Blumenthal dining experience is well worth trying, though naturally expensive. But give yourself a treat! As for breakfast, the continental is more than adequate; the full English, though still quite good, did not quite fulfil expectations or live up to some other similar hotels. Service in the restaurant was as exemplary as elsewhere. | Was anything not perfect? Well perhaps there are some things to beware of. A courtyard room does not have a view over a courtyard, it is just a way of saying not a street view. There is no real view from these rooms except the walls of a building. Also, if armchairs are important to you make sure you ask and insist - there is no guarantee of one, let alone two, in a room. In their words, we have more rooms than chairs! Given the high cost of staying there it is surprising that they don't automatically provide a comfortable chair in each room. Also, watch out for the extra 5% service charge not mentioned in the original price. There may be small print somewhere but as I booked in person at the hotel this was not mentioned at the time. And although check-in was efficient, friendly, and speedy, it was a little surprising that no-one offered to show you up to the room and\/or explain anything about the room.

The hotel had a very separate dining area with tables that was separated from the main lobby by a set of doors which we were nowhere near. We were sitting by a window in the corner of the lobby. The only reason we brought our food back to the hotel is because we couldn't find anywhere to sit in Harrods or anywhere to sit in between, every place was packed with tourists as is usual for a Saturday during summer holidays in London. | While we were outside our 5 year old got stung by a wasp. We thought we would retreat back to what should have been the safety and comfort of the hotel we paid for but instead were rudely asked by staff if we had a room there and when we said yes, we are guests, we were rudely told that we can't eat in the lobby and that if we had to eat we would have to do so in our room. The same room our boys had spent all morning cooped up in with their babysitter because we had to attend a wedding ceremony that didn't allow children that day. They needed a break and we took them out but then couldn't find a place to sit and eat our snack so we assumed we would be safe in the hotel lobby we paid for, and this hotel is quite expensive for what it is as well. | By the way there were absolutely no signs anywhere in the lobby stating that guests can't eat in the lobby (keeping in mind it was not a five course meal - it was tea and pastries.) As we were heading up to our room, a little confused and embarrassed from having been evicted from our own lobby, we pointed out that there were no signs up stating guests can't eat or drink in the lobby ...this ended up with the staff shrugging and giving us rude looks and stating that no hotel lobby would allow guests to eat in their lobby. | I believe if the hotel hasn't put the lobby seating and tables in for guest use they should probably just take these options for guest \"comfort\" out because really guests are not made to feel comfortable in the lobby anyway. At the very least put a sign up stating clearly that guests cannot eat or drink in the lobby. Our children were sitting very quietly, the lobby was empty aside from staff at the desk and one staff member lingering around to glare at us and it was a very disappointing situation for us to have been asked to move remove our entire family (two children 5 and 3) over such a silly rule that was not signposted anyway. | The reason we gave this hotel a \"poor\" instead of a \"terrible\" rating was because the location is quite convenient but this hotel is expensive for what it is, our room was cramped and had a funny smell, especially the bathroom and the staff who handled this lobby \"issue\" were incredibly rude and condescending.

The location is great, a quick walk from Trafalgar Square and if you want to walk a little bit more you can reach Piccadilly Circus within a couple more minutes. | Staff is really great and as I was staying at the Savoy for my mom's 80th birthday, as I mentioned that to them we were greeted after being escorted to our room with a complimentary birthday cake and a card from the hotel manager, congratulating my mom for her birthday. A nice, personal touch that she still mentions (as a comparison we are now at the Hotel Danieli in Venice - not even a happy birthday was said, no cards, nothing - even though they are fully aware of the reason for our trip). | Room was very clean and in perfect shape\/upkeep. Bathroom was fairly spacious and overall a much bigger room that what you will usually get in London. Definitely worth. The beds were simply amazing. | My only complain, later discussed with the manager upon checkout, is how a hotel that was renovated in 2010 has TVs with no common, modern connectors like HDMI and VGA. More than that many other cheaper hotels in London now offer desks with all connectors built-in and then a single cable, hidden, carries all the signals to the TV. Not to mention USB ports right on the desk so you can simply plug your iDevices and anything that charges over USB directly to the desk. Even a 220 to 110V converter is built-in to the desk so all your non-European devices can be charged easily. | Not the case at the Savoy. In our room (#544) the TV would only take composite and S-video signals, very common back in the 80s and 90s. Not in 2013. | Another major issue that I have seen many other hotels addressing is cellphone coverage. In many places now in London, the hotels are installing repeaters, dealing with the carriers, so great coverage is provided no matter where you are. This is important for the business traveler for several reasons, from having their smartphones always connected and being able to take calls if needed, to having their own wifi routers (like in my case). For such a great hotel this should not be overlooked and quickly rectified. | Overall a great place to stay and one of the few remaining hotels that still understand the meaning of personal touch. | Go ahead and book it.

But I swear every hotel I found was well over $300 USD a night and every review I read said that you were pretty much getting a closet for that price unless you wanted to spend a lot more. But I was on a sightseeing vacatoin, not really intending to spend a lot of time in my room so that didn't seem to make much sense to me. I found a great deal for 3 nights at the Mondrian, and I was a bit hesitant about staying on the South Bank because everyone was telling me it wasn't that great (which is why I think it's cheaper than the other neighborhoods). But I have to disagree! The hotel is located directly on the Queens Walk to the left and the Jubilee walk on the right. You can walk along a beautiful and busy path (that doesn't feel unsafe whatsoever) all the way down to Westminster Bridge on one side and to London Bridge on the other. You can walk any bridge or pedestrian bridge over to the other side of the Thames to partake in all of the museums and sites of interest. Also, you're maybe a quarter of a mile walking to Blackfriars station which seemed like a pretty big hub to get anywhere you need to go if you want to take public transport. In terms of the rooms, they're a great size even by American standards. Internet is included in your room price. Room service was good, there's also 3 restaurants to choose from and a roof top bar with a beautiful view of the city across the river. The beds were very comfortable, I slept really well.

My Girlfriend baby girl and i stayed at the weekend for one night and i had been planning this for some time as i was proposing so i wanted it to be special. on arrival we loved it from the off the reception was so modern and inviting i was greeted by the Hotel manager Ashley Shaw who i had spoke to a few times over the phone too discuss ideas for proposing, He showed us to reception where we were checked in easily and effortlessly. I also have to point out the receptionist was very helpful and accommodating as we had asked for a travel cot in the room for the little one. When we got to the standard Room it was beautiful with a travel cot already made which i found a plus as i have been to many 5star hotels where i have had to wait a long time before they bought one to us. With the little one asleep Girlfriend having a soak in the bath, Ashley took me up to the rumpus bar where i was greeted by the bar manager Ben to go through our plans for the proposal the View over looking the Thames and london was simply stunning and the perfect magical place to propose, They had un known to me set up outside a Bottle of champagne, rose petals on the floor and one single red rose all of this was happening as the bar was closed so i felt like i was the only person that mattered to them.with the scene set Ashley proceeded to surprise my parter by asking her to come and meet me in the bar when i saw her with my daughter walking towards me and this amazing setting i was overcome with emotion i held it together as much as i could during the proposal and she said YES i was totally buzzing. whilst sipping the champagne Henry a colleague of Bens came over to let us know he had filmed the proposal on his phone and wanted to know if we wanted it emailed to us my girlfriend loved this touch as she has this moment on video now ,could this day get any better. On the way back to the room the hotel manager Ashley said they had a surprise for us and took us to another room when we opened the door it was like a door to heaven it was a suite which we had been upgraded too we couldnt believe what was happening to us. My girlfriend at this point thought i was amazing when we walked in and the view again was out of this world and there was a chocolate cake waiting for us with congratulations on neither of us wanted the night to end before we left the next day we went for a spot of lunch in the restaurant where we were served by a smilng professional Dixie who asked if we needed a high chair for my daughter peter then came over and was amazing with my daughter and took our order the food was as good as i had ever eaten anywhere and my girlfriend agreed, We both looked at each other and thought nothing we do will ever be as good as what we have experienced here. we were devastated to be leaving.

You likely can't find a better one; walk to Westminster cathedral in 10 minutes and St Paul's in 15. On the Thames, in the West end, a stone's throw from Trafalgar square, etc. | The room we were upgraded to had an angled view of the Thames which was quite nice. I prefer the Edwardian furnishings and we were able to get one of those. The room was a decent size and the bathroom, although all white and gray, roomy enough. Lovely towels and a heated towel bar. There was a large wardrobe with enough hangers. The bed was wonderful and very comfortable. The air-conditioning barely took the edge of the heat (you can only dial the temperature down so far) but the water temperature of the showers couldn't go above moderately warm. Odd. Likely a cost cutting measure. | The hotel is strangely designed. Up and down stairs, along snaking corridors to get to the lift that takes you to your wing, etc. I found it off putting not quaint or quirky. | You must pay for internet unless you are a president's club member and the wifi was a bit spotty. | The rooms are advertised as having an iron, tea and coffee, etc but in fact you must ring up guest services to have these delivered to your room.

Once seated we were advised that there was a 'minimum charge' (once I looked at the cigar list how could you NOT spend at least the minimum?) Maybe that advisory policy should change! The attendant showed us the list, I was sufficiently impressed so asked to be taken to the humidors, which he promptly did. I was surprised and duly impressed to see a beautifully carved wooden box with a hand-painted portrait of Don Alejandro Robaina, one of the most famous Cuban tobacco growers EVER!

An area where they might improve, would be with one or two staff members who are in the breakfast area, who are not quite up to the standard of the rest of the staff. It's also not nice to sit and watch staff argue with one another for whatever reason while you're trying to have breakfast. Staff in a hotel, particularly at this level should always be aware that they are being watched. My room was lovely! It was big clean and the bed was comfortable. The little touches of the welcome note and the macroons and fortune cookie were sweet. But and it's a very big but... If as I said I'm paying what I did. I expect to be able to go wherever I want in the public areas in this hotel with no problems. This sadly was not the case on the Saturday evening as I was informed that the rooftop bar, which is one of the highlights of this hotel had been booked out for a private party until 730 which sadly did not suit me, as I had made dinner reservations for 8 across town. I think it's un acceptable that this was not pointed out to me in one of the many emails I have received from the hotel prior to arrival, to save me any embarrassment by being stopped trying to access the roof bar. And on a bank holiday weekend. Prior to trying to get up there was an uncomfortable atmosphere in the lobby as they were security floating around watching everybody. I was not approached by anybody but it did make the start of my stay uncomfortable as I sat in the lobby wait for a friend. I was with a friend Who I had invited to join me and I really felt this was unacceptable. We queued and I appeared to be the only person in the queue who was actually staying in the hotel and couldn't access the bar. I really wanted to see this bar so we did eventually get up at a quarter to eight, so It didn't even open when it was supposed to and sadly we were late for our dinner date as a result. I'd stay here again as I really want to bring my husband next time.

The Lanesborough did not disappoint - the service is the best I've experienced at a city hotel. The 24 hour butler service is the real deal - they wait on you hand and foot with service bells all over the hotel and room. The staff are generally down-to-earth and helpful, especially in the Withdrawing Room and Bar. The spa is stupendous - beautiful, luxe, stocked with goodies, and with excellent personnel. I had only a few gripes - the decor is over-the-top bordering on Las Vegas kitsch. They went so far to emulate the Regency period that it almost feels fake with faux marble columns, oil paintings over TV's and just a bit too much gilding. It works well in Celeste which is a gorgeous restaurant and bar, but the rooms feel a bit fairytale and forced. I think The Connaught's traditionally decorated rooms and suites feel more tasteful and refined. They upgraded me to the Apsley Suite which is very roomy for one person; however, the small couch and somewhat mis-used space (it doesn't need a guest bathroom) made the living area feel like a missed opportunity. Similar suites at The Connaught feel better designed. Oh and they tried WAY TOO HARD with the technology in the room. Sometimes the Ipads didn't work and you can only close drapes with them and not by hand. Plus, the lighting system is confusing; a master switch doesn't turn off all lights and I had to unscrew bulbs. Sometimes too much tech that's not fully realized isn't worth doing. Celeste's food is fussy with small portions whereas Helen Darroze is really something special at The Connaught; there are more dining options at the latter hotel as well. I also didn't like that a blonde Eastern European server in Celeste made a face and questioned me when I said I don't drink alcohol - totally inappropriate. Generally, the servers at Celeste seemed unpolished. Room service food and speed here were really terrific. I asked to stay an extra night but they were sold out, so clearly I loved the place. | Connaught vs. Lanesborough | Location Winner - Connaught (Mayfair location is quieter and less hectic) | Service Winner - Lanesborough | Room Decor Winner - Connaught | Public Area Decor Winner - Lanesborough (the halls alone make it a winner; I felt like I was in an old mansion | Food Winner - Tie (Connaught had better restaurant food vs. better room service food at Lanesborough | Spa Winner - Lanesborough | Butler Service Winer - Lanesborough | Technology Winner - The Connaught is lower tech but easier to use | Intangibles - Tie - The Lanesborough thinks of most everything but the gaudiness makes it border on tacky.

Also we booked at a discount through Luxury Link that may have effected our treatment a bit. Our initial welcome was enthusiastic and pleasant, but then we were asked if we wanted an even better room at an additional 100 UK pounds per night. In retrospect this was super tacky as we were already paying >$500 per night for an executive room! Since our room was not ready yet, we were offered tea, coffee or a glass of champagne in the Northhall. Because we were having afternoon tea that day, we opted for the champagne. The \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdwait\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd was barely 10 minutes so this was a nice touch. | Other rooms received morning papers, yet we were never asked about a newspaper when we checked in. We were in room a room 35 and I assume my comments on this room reflect the other 35 series rooms. There were some odd decisions made when designing the room. The entry hall and walk-in closet were huge which made the actual bedroom space small for such a large room (400 Sq ft). The room felt smaller than suites that are sold as 350 sq ft. The closet would be a great place for a crib though. As in other London hotels the hair dryer does not plug into an outlet in the bathroom. You could dry your hair in the closet if you moved your clothes on hangers to the side so they did not block mirror, or you could crouch or sit in a chair with some difficulty in the bedroom. The TV was flat against the wall across from the bed but it did not swivel so you could not aim towards the sitting area. There was a Nespresso coffee machine and tea bags but NO tea kettle. So you could not boil water to make real tea; unheard of in a London hotel. However, when I requested a tea kettle they promptly brought one. The safe was shallow and located in a drawer in the closet. It was big enough for a laptop but it was too small to hold a camera (even a small one after I put the computer in). On the bright side the bathroom was large and the shower was great and there was no shortage of soap. It is pretty common to not get a bar of soap for the shower at many hotels these days, but I took the one from the bathtub for the shower. | We were promised that our wedding anniversary would be remembered.

Attention to the details noted, however, should improve the overall experience. | The Savoy addressed an initial email to me in the wrong gender. I corrected this. | The room was freezing when we arrived and we couldn't regulate the thermometer ourselves. We phoned for some help. We were told someone would come, but no one ever did. We were asked what newspaper we would like at check in and indicated the NYTimes, but it never arrived. I asked again, but it never arrived that day or the following. It was on our bill at the time of check-out for each day. They removed this and the internet charges as well due to the mistake. The maid service in the morning was very noisy outside and woke us up, going on for long lengths of time with doors opening\/shutting, etc. I asked that evening for them to consider how to address this and we had no issue with it the next two mornings. The second morning we received a bill for one night, even though we were scheduled for 3. The receptionist indicated she only had us reserved for one. She was flustered and obviously embarrassed and took care of this on her own. We ordered tea and coffee the morning we were leaving and they said it would be there in 15 minutes and it never arrived. I phoned a half hour later and they said that it would be right up, they had our room number wrong. They rushed the coffee and tea up, but by that time we had little time to drink. We were still charged for this. | The morning of our departure I asked how we could print out our boarding passes for our plane and was told by the receptionist and the woman at check-out that the concierge would help us with this. We waited for the concierge, who was busy, and then he said we needed to go to the business center. When I indicated that we were sent to him by two people in the hotel and would pull this up from email he said, \"And do I have access to your email address?\" When we went to the business center we were let in by ourselves and the printer didn't work. We were hurrying to get to the airport. We had to find someone to help us find the other printer in a different section of the business center that had a printer attached. They informed us that the hotel car service to Gatwick Airport was 195 pounds, and that a taxi might save us 30 pounds. We took a taxi and it was only 100 pounds. We were placed in a very bad place for the tea service and had to ask to be moved. The table was in the far corner by the servers table and as they hustled by the table shook and banged. Really, they should not have anyone sit there and no one did after we were moved. I hope our bad table wasn't because we were two females. We were also placed iintially at the table nearest the servers\/kitchen door in the Savoy Grill, and asked to be moved. In both instances we had advance reservations and others behind us were seated in better locations. The changed tables were great, but having to ask for a better table should not be necessary. When I was in college and worked in a fine dining establishment we were told to place 2 females in the least desired location. That was 30+ years ago. I wouldn't expect this from the Savoy. It was troubling to both of us. We stay at other fine hotels, such as the Ritz-Carlton, the Penninsula, and the Sofitel, and have not had this happen. They should work on this. There were lovely things about the hotel that actually overshadowed all the noted gliches, although the last day, the number of issues did add up to frustration with that day's experience. The workout\/spa area is very well maintained and attended to. The chocolates in the hand made chocolate shop were delicious and the service was lovely. The food at the Savoy Grill was very nice.

For a room of this standard and price I am surprised that the shower curtain has not been replaced with glass as has happened at many of the other hotels we stayed in across Europe, The breakfast offered both hot and cold choices but was average.

Yes the spa is spectacular if you have the time to indulge. | But why am I marking it down? 2 reasons, which would not have bothered me in a hotel that was not claiming the Corinthia's level of excellence. | 1: Air conditioning performance in room | I stay in many hotel rooms and this is the first where the controls have defeated me and the staff, and which was unable to be rectified. During the first night we set the temp to 22 deg, on auto. It just continued to blow and blow and blow cold air, directly onto the bed - making the room unpleasantly cold but unfortunately not cold enough to overcome the heat being generated by a doona that was better suited to extreme Arctic conditions. Turning the a\/c off allowed the room to quickly overheat. And it had a mind of its own about coming on and off, regardless of whether turned on or off. | I spoke to the staff the next day about this, who advised me that evening that the engineers had checked it out and confirmed all was ok. Alas this was not to be the case, as we faced a second night with the same problem (although we had the doona replaced with a cotton blanket). The hotel sent up a member of staff to check on the problem, and after going through it with us he agreed the 'auto' control was not working, most likely because the thermostat was located away from the vent of the bed, in a part of the room that was warmer, and which would never cool. Hence the thermostat or would never reach our desired temperature, while we slowly froze. Another hot night without a\/c. By this time we gave up and resigned ourselves to our fate on subsequent nights. | 2: Breakfast quality, seating, attention and availability | The quality of breakfast is not as good as that enjoyed at most 4 star hotels, let alone 5 star or luxury. One type of eggs (scrambled), very very limited range of cold meats\/fish and breads, and all in tiny serves. (And in case management read this and suggest we could have ordered from the menu, my response would be that we found that too confusing - could we order from the menu while choosing from the buffet as a supplement, or was it one or the other. The menu, which is the size of a broadsheet, is too complex) | The staff had perfected the art of looking but not seeing, hence once seated it became very difficulty, for example, to order a coffee. Staff walked by us repeatedly without us being able to attract their attention. And when we were able to place a coffee order it took an interminable amount of time, and on two different meal occasions having to ask at least twice. | If you do have breakfast there, avoid sitting on the lounge\/bench seats. For some reason in recent years a feature of design has been seating which is too low for, and too far from, the tables. Select the individual seats if you prefer comfort. | ANd finally, having an early check out on Sunday morning I thought I would get down to breakfast early, and was quite surprised to find they did not start serving breakfast till 7, later than other days. Granted some people may sleep in, but I was disappointed to find a luxury hotel who could not cater to people who left early no matter what day. Yes I could have ordered room service, but it never entered my mind that they might open later. Mea culpa. | As I said at the start, I could put up with these things in a hotel of a lesser standard at a cheaper price, but the Corinthia should not miss the mark on these levels of comfort", "Location Of The Reviewer": "Sydney, Australia", "Date Of Review": "6\/18\/2012" }, { "Property_Name": "Mondrian London at Sea Containers", "Review Rating": 3, "Review Title": "Lovely staff, really average to poor food", "Review Text": "As a group of four friends we had dinner this evening at the Mondrian.

I emailed Rhodes desperate for a room (my company was willing to pay for any accommodation as long as it was equally priced or cheaper than the quote the travel agent gave for a 4-star hotel) and not only they found me a room but they met all my requests. Double room, lower floor, main building; I had them all! | On my first night, I had to stay in a quad room but then they moved me to my double on the first floor. (They moved all my luggage while I was out.) | ---Note to those who are thinking of booking a quad for 4 people: There is enough room for all of you to sleep (there was a king size bed and two bunk beds) but if you stay for a few days and have luggage there won't be enough room for it. | My advice is to book a room for 5 and use the fifth bed for your suitcases.--- | As I mention in the title, Rhodes is the best budget hotel in London. The reason I say this is because it is not actually a budget hotel. It is a small and beautiful (Grade 2 listed Georgian house) hotel with all features of a 4-star establishment but its prices are the ones of a B&B. | There is a fridge in every room, tea and coffee making facilities with fresh milk and real coffee, 24-hours reception and cctv on all floors, they will carry your luggage and help with shopping bags, there is a computer, printer and fax machine in reception, free wifi with excellent signal, central heating and air condition for the summer months, breakfast room, luggage storage, parking, iron and ironing board upon request, money exchange (I guess depending on availability but they were happy to exchange my euros), wake-up call, sightseeing and theatre tickets advice, airport transfer arrangements and so on and on and on... | Upon my arrival, there was a box of chocolates and sparkling water in my room -a very tasty and refreshing welcome- another feature that you will meet only in 4&5-star hotels and not even in all of them. | My double room (first floor, 215) was extremely clean, spacious, there was a desk\/vanity table, all the facilities I mentioned above plus a hair dryer in the bathroom (not a very strong one, OK to dry but not style). The bathroom was compact but had an amazing power shower and enough room for all the lotions and potions one might need. There was liquid soap and shampoo\/shower gel and very good quality towels. Perhaps the best feature of the bathroom was a soft blue light that was rather useful for loo visits during the night, when switching on the big light is a bit brutal. | The bed was comfy and there were 4 (four) pillows of very good quality as well. It was joy to sleep in this bed. The heating was on for many hours during the day and there is an individual controller on the radiator so that you can choose how hot you want your room to be. | The big telly (flat screen) with all UK channels (not just the free ones) made me wish I had more time to spend in the room, but this was London. When I wasn't working, I wanted to go out and about. Still, it was good to have for watching either early in the morning and check the day's weather or late at night with a glass of wine and some nibbles. My only complaint was that there weren't any power outlets near the bed to charge phones, tablet, laptop and sit on the bed to watch the telly at the same time. I used the one of the kettle but it was a bit \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdhidden\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd so not very easy to reach . On the other hand, Chris (manager and owner) thought of the forgetful visitors from Europe and installed one European power outlet in every room so that if you find yourself with no adapter, you can still have where to plug in your charger. Come to think of it, I have a second complaint. There was no way to lock the room from the inside. Not for safety reasons (I felt very safe in Rhodes and nobody could walk in without a key) but for privacy, since housekeepers could walk in while I was there. | The room was facing the back of the hotel (it was a normal city view of rooftops, buildings and the London sky) which made it really quiet. There was no noise coming from the room upstairs, or the corridor. The only noise were from my neighbours from across the hall who were banging doors and yelling at each other upon coming and going. This lasted only for two nights (thank God) and it was due to them being rude and not to hotel's lack on insulation since other than those incidents I didn't hear a single noise. | House keeping was immaculate. The room and bathroom were spotless clean, sheets and towels changed daily or every-other-day, glasses and cups were also spotless and my tea&coffee tray was always full of everything. The entrance and communal spaces were also clean and reception was warm and welcoming, with a beautiful window overlooking Sussex Gardens. There are also a few rooms with balconies with the same view, which I highly recommend if they are available. | Please note that the hotel has no lift. That won't be a problem though because all you have to do is request a room on the ground or first floor (even second floor is OK) and you will be fine. Any luggage or shopping that you might have, you won't have to carry it anyway. There will always be a helpful hand at reception. | Besides the main building, the hotel also has a brand new Annex Building, just off London Street on Sussex Place. I prefer the main building because reception is there but otherwise the second building also offers all amenities and facilities of the main building. Do note though that you will be having breakfast at the main building. It's just a few minute's walk though, nothing too much to handle. | During my stay, all my requests were met with efficiency and a smile. Luggage storage, late check out, pay in euros, extra towels, advice where to buy a cheap piece of luggage in the neighbourhood when mine broke... Every time I entered or exited the hotel, there was a warm greeting or good-bye. It's like getting home or leaving home. | I am not a big breakfast eater so I can't comment on that, although the smells that came from the kitchen every morning assured me that you will eat very well at the Rhodes' breakfast room. | Location-wise, it can't be more perfect, since it is less than a 5-minutes walk from Paddington Station. Trains (to and from Heathrow, the West, South-West and South Wales), 4 tube lines (Hammersmith&City, Circle, District and Bakerloo) and several buses (towards Oxford Circus, Liverpool Street, Camden Town, Kensington High Street, Notting Hill and many more destinations) will take you to practically everywhere in London and outside it. If you need a taxi, just head towards London Street and you will see plenty. Alternatively, just ask reception to call you a cab or mini cab. | The area of the hotel has everything. Great restaurants, pubs, various shops, dry cleaners, exchange bureaus (try the one on Spring Street, they offer better rates and charge no commission), news agents, cafes and convenience shops that are open 24\/7. Inside Paddington station you will find more restaurants, shops, super market, chemist and more. You won't find yourself in the need of anything that the area cannot provide for. Still, if you do, ask the staff of Rhodes Hotel and they will bring it to you. | To conclude, I will repeat that if you are looking for a central, clean and safe hotel with 4-star amenities, facilities, service and 2,5-star prices, Rhodes should be your only choice. You cannot go wrong with this one.

Very disappointing in a 5 star hotel.Keep all your e-mails potential guests!! Only other niggles were-no dressing gown in the executive room-had to phone for ones so we could visit the spa-which I must say in fantastic; also the lovely shower gel-ESPA-products we had used the previous day was not replaced which was very disappointing and meant we had to wash with shampoo!!

Instead your attentive doorman is wired for sound and in casual conversation relays your name to receptionists who are then waiting for you on the other side of the revolving door. This is a super touch (though I had been up since 5am so was a little bit disorientated by the experience). The check in is conducted in a lounge off the main lobby and if you are staying in the river side you are taken discretely in a lift from the reception room to your room. | As we were too early to immediately go to our room we breakfasted in the central courtyard. Quality of the food was excellent and reasonably priced considering the location. | The decor of the hotel is a strange mishmash of art deco and edwardian. Honestly in the refurb I feel that a decision should have been taken one way or another rather than to maintain the disjointed styles. | Our initial bedroom was very comfortable and quite spacious. An initial issue with the bed being over used on one side was corrected immediately. Beautiful green glass chandelier and high specification amenities. There was a problem with the sound insulation through the air conditioning and as a result the neighbouring room's television could be heard clearly (though I don't think they have the volume above a normal level). The duty manager (Boris) was excellent and dealt with the matter immediately by moving our room. | Again this room was large and had the feel that this was a grand old hotel due to its scale.

If you are in anyway inclined to dress in a casual style (I am not suggesting a velour tracksuit and slippers) then you are unlikely to be able to use any of the dining or bar facilities if you are a guest. The hotel applies a strict formal shoes policy throughout the hotel. This is ironic given that female visitors (not hotel guests) may dress in little more than underwear.

I couldn't wait to go back following the extensive refurbishment in 2010. The opportunity presented itself last weekend for a friend's birthday and I was not disappointed!! We arrived early (which the hotel were aware of having contacted me prior to our stay to confirm preferences) and we were immediately greeted by the friendly and professional lobby staff. After a quick tour of the hotel (it was my friend's first visit) we were whisked off to our room. I had booked a junior suite which had been upgraded to a personality suite (the amazing Maria Callas Suite with thames aspect was quite simply a treat.) Worth noting I had not mentioned our visit was for any sort of occassion so the upgrade was a most unexpected gesture. Our luggage arrived before we did and our butler was on hand to discuss our requirements. Within 30 minutes we were unpacked, had reviewed lunch and dinner menus, all our reservations were made (including securing a dinner reservation after last orders as we were attending a tango show in the evening.) The staff could not have been more professional or accomodating which allowed us to enjoy a wonderfully relaxed afternoon soaking up the atmosphere of this iconic hotel and its guests and of course the pianist who was only too happy to take requests. In my opinion the mark of service is not that everthing is perfect (mistakes will occassionally be made) but how the staff address anything that is not. A waiter accidently spilled one of our champagne cocktails (it was his second week and he was clearly nervous.) Within seconds our table had been relaid, drinks removed from our bill, napkins provided and all without fuss. Generally good knowledge of the food and wines across all the restaurants. Enjoyed a wonderful Chablis in the Riverside Restaurant. Allergies accomodated with ease. All the extras you would expect from a 5* - champagne moved from bar to restaurant, unfinished wine taken up to our suite, cocktails made to accomodate personal preferences, breakfast laid out in our suite to enjoy the stunning view, complimentary hot drinks, water and ice promptly provided by our butler, efficient ironing service, paper, good music, book and film selection in the suite. If I were to make one criticism it would be that the staff in Gordan Ramsey's The Savoy Grill were a little stiff. However my review is of this wonderful hotel rather than the francised restaurant. Loved the American Bar day and night although there was of course greater atmosphere in the evening. Yes the decor is now a little more repo and less original pieces however that is inevitable in a hotel of this size.

To summarise: WOW. | I love glamorous old hotels, and the Savoy doesn't disappoint; it's historical and beautiful, but was completely and exquisitely renovated in 2010. Arriving in the elegant, timeless lobby is the perfect start to an enjoyable stay; after giving the doorman my name, I was warmly welcomed by a member of staff, and taken straight to the room to complete the check-in. During both stays, I was impressed with the room... but this time, it was stunning. Very large, with two double beds (staying with a friend) and sumptuous decor, plus a luxurious bathroom. There is such attention to detail in this hotel, with plush Savoy-branded bathrobes and slippers, excellent La Labo amenities, and little extra touches everywhere. There were no facilities for making coffee or tea, but I phoned down for this and a beautiful tray was promptly brought up with a kettle and very high quality drinks. In fact, nothing I asked for was ever too much... which is an experience I've enjoyed with other hotels managed or owned by the Fairmont brand. | All of this was within the first half an hour, and the rest of the stay continued at this high standard. The pool\/ spa area is calm and relaxing, although the garish tiles are somewhat odd. The service throughout the hotel is top notch without being pretentious. There was a nightly turn-down, and the whole room was cleaned, towels were replaced, and so on. Needless to say, the entire hotel is spotlessly clean and immaculately presented... the Thames Foyer is particularly impressive. After our first night, when we came down for breakfast we were thrilled to see that overnight it had been transformed into a winter wonderland in preparation for Christmas! | One \"elephant in the room\" here is the cost. As usual, such luxury is far too expensive... everything is pricey. The breakfast was around 35 pounds per person, and drinks in the American Bar are pushing 20 pounds!

I have stayed at many Fairmont hotels but nothing comes close to the class of The Savoy. | HISTORY: | To begin with the hotel itself, it's built on the footing of the old Savoy Palace from 1246. The hotel was rebuilt in the late 1800's and was the finest of its time. It was the first hotel in London to feature electricity and elevators (the original elevators, known at the time as \"ascending rooms\" are still in service). Of course the hotel became a celebrity hotspot. If you stay at The Savoy, you will be walking through the same doors as Marilyn Monroe, Winston Churchill, and The Queen herself. In fact, Princess Diana was a regular at the hotel's American Bar - so much so that the head bartender made a special drink just for her named The Blushing Monarch. To this day, the hotel remains a hit with celebrities. While dining at Chef Gordon Ramsey's restaurant, The Savoy Grill, we sat across from Stephen Tyler from Aerosmith. Who knows who you'll run into while staying at The Savoy! | LOCATION: | You are a 10-minute walk to most of London's tourist hotspots. Walk a few minutes down the road and you'll be at Trafalgar Square. Keep walking and you'll be on The Mall along St. James Park. A few minutes later, you'll find yourself at Buckingham Palace. Turn left at Trafalgar Square instead and you'll be a 5 minute walk away from the Parliament building, Big Ben, and Westminster Abbey. Just beyond the bridge is the London Eye and the aquarium. | ROOMS: | The rooms are very beautiful and decently sized for a heritage hotel (the hotel is well over 100-years old - don't expect a massive room). The bathrooms on the other hand are surprisingly large, marble throughout, and absolutely beautiful as well as functional. The shower has a rain shower head and the deep tub features a beautiful antique-style fixture. Many rooms have a view of the courtyard however which isn't particularly beautiful. If having a room with a lovely view is something important to you, you may want to specify in advance you'd like a view of the Thames River, lest you be disappointed. | DINING: | The hotel has a few dining options including Kaspar's (in Art Deco style) where the food was delicious and came out of the kitchen quickly. At the American Bar, don't accidentally order a $5,000 glass of cognac or a $750 glass of the world's rarest rum - both of which you can find beautifully displayed in the hotel museum. Other than a fee exceptions, drinks here are reasonably priced and the atmosphere is lovely with a piano player in the centre of the bar. | SERVICE: | Last but certainly not least of importance is the service. The staff here are incredible. As a Fairmont visitor in Canada, you will most definitely notice a quality improvement in service when at The Savoy in London. Just two quick examples, should the hotel be reading this - first, I forgot to return a borrow jacket to my tour guide who had just dropped me off at the hotel and thus had driven away. Gentsy (spelling is wrong, I'm sure) who is one of the doormen, took off his top hat and went running down the street likely three blocks at a sprint before he caught up with the car! Another example: each morning at 4:30am I went for a jog. On the first morning when I returned, I asked the overnight concierge for a bottle of water. The second morning when I returned he already had a cold bottle waiting for me.

We were looking for 5 star properties, so based on good reviews and the brand reputation (she loves Mandarin Oriental), I booked Mandarin Oriental. The reviews here are fair, that it is a very good property, service is also good, but I must say that it's showing its age and I can't say it's very good value for money. | What's good: It's very luxurious and old school.

The massage treatment I had was pretty good here. | Dinner by Heston Blumenthal is a highlight. I really like this restaurant. Fantastic service, excellent food, and lively, fun and unpretentious atmosphere. They don't have a tasting menu, so you can do a la carte.

Service was equally good during the breakfast service. We ordered room service breakfast twice during our stay. Amazing! Great service, beautiful presentation, the cart becomes your dining table and it's very spacious. I was impressed. Get the Japanese breakfast set. Delicious! | What's bad: Front door men were not very friendly and not prompt in helping you. They were in fact more friendly and useful when you wanted to check out and leave than upon arrival. Service was mostly good, but inconsistent. The check-in process was smooth and efficient, but we weren't really informed about the property and what's available. When we walked in the front door, no one greeted us or informed us about where the reception desk was. It's not very obvious. At the Mandarin Oriental in Tokyo, they have people everywhere, greeting you constantly, and by name. I miss the Mandarin Oriental service in Asia. | We had to call maintenance to our room to fix things on 3 occasions. They didn't apologize for any of the issues and it goes to show how much the rooms are showing their age. Last issue was that I e-mailed the Concierge before my stay about a restaurant reservation.

Tra l'altro la nostra finestra dava sul giardino, quindi non si sentiva nessun tipo di rumore della strada! | Il bagno in camera era carino, nuovo e molto pulito. Non me lo aspettavo cos\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd dalle foto postate dagli altri utenti. | Il letto, anche se non era proprio \"doppio\", era molto comodo soprattutto dopo giornate intere passate a macinare kilometri in giro per le strade di Londra. | Poi come non parlare della colazione!

It is an expensive, luxury hotel but London, like most capital cities, is not embossed with a large value for money stamp so \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd for \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd it is a great choice. The staff are impeccably trained with an eye for detail and an unostentatious but professional 'nothing-could-be-too-much-trouble' attitude. | Our rooms were spacious, wardrobes were in the hall so the whole room is useable space. It's a sign of a good hotel in my opinion if you can hardly hear the door being knocked and there was certainly no sound from anywhere once the thick oak door was closed. Bathroom perfect and bath almost so big that you struggle to stay in one place (and I'm not short). The floors and mirrors are heated, naturally, and the air-con is in permanent whisper mode it seems. We were in the most basic of rooms and are fairly fussy travellers but there was nothing to complain about at all. | The breakfast was superb and (rarely do we do this but...) the hotel restaurant in the evening was delightful too, with an atmosphere that most in-house eateries lack. In particular the man in the suit at breakfast runs the most impressive service I've seen in a hotel - for example, the temperature of the berries are frequently checked and although there is a buffet, staff always ask if you would like a refill of juice\/fruit\/bread. Everything was cooked to perfection and presented beautifully. | The pool is hardly suitable for an intensive exercise regime but who needs that after walking around London all day? I didn't try out the gym but I'm sure it would be impressive. To help put the hotel ESPA area into context, the changing rooms for the thermal pool\/swimming pool have daybeds, the steam room has pods with individual cool showers and there are sleep pods should one feel the bed in their room to uncomfortable (as if). Children are allowed in the spa area and swimming pool but at restricted time - timings not ideal for us but we worked around it. These were 1100-1230 and 1500-1630 which means cutting into too much daytime for us but I'm sure it would suit people with younger children - ours are 4 and 8 with pretty good stamina. | I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel to anyone - business, pleasure, families or anyone for that matter would feel welcome here. We will undoubtedly be back - I don't always recommend small hotels but this establishment has enough rooms I'm sure we would always be able to squeeze in somewhere.

Thanks to my AmEx Fine Resorts booking, I received an upgrade to a Luxury King room with a partial river view, which was AMAZING. I can't say enough good things about my room. Spacious, luxurious (I got the Edwardian style room) and decorated SO perfectly for me. It was the best hotel room ever. | On the day of my arrival, I had the Afternoon Tea of a LIFETIME in the hotel's Thames Foyer. I don't think I've ever been in a more beautiful dining room, and the pianist added so much to the ambience. They give you soo much food, with extra helpings of the delicious sandwiches and scones, and more dessert than you can fit in your tummy! Absolutely incredible, and a must-do in London. | I had breakfast in the room all three mornings, and each meal was delicious, and so decadent eating in my beautiful room! I also ate at Kaspar's on my second night, and the seafood pie was SO delicious. | The location of the hotel is PRIME. You're in the middle of the West End theaters and nightlife, which is awesome, and allowed me to walk to the theater when I bought tickets to a show. Plus, the currency exchange in the courtyard of the Savoy was a good deal and has better rates than within the hotel- very convenient to have that less than a block away when I needed to exchange euros for pounds right after I arrived. | Housekeeping was great, and they also sewed a torn garment for 10 pounds, which I thought was a good deal for a London hotel. The hotel has so many wonderful little extras, like a fascinating Savoy Museum, and the delectable Tea Shop. | In short: this hotel was everything I hoped for and more.

I wasn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt disappointed! | The hotel is beautifully appointed, all public areas are filled with fresh flowers and the hotel rooms themselves are vast and full of the latest accoutrements! Underfloor heating in the bathroom, varied lighting and mood lighting options, little switches for not being disturbed or alerting them to service the room, touchscreen telephones and options to blue tooth your Mp3s and Iphones through the in room TV. | Our room was large- with a hallway, walk in closet, enormous bathroom with tub and cavernous walk in shower as well as a large bedroom and even a balcony. Our room faced the inner courtyard and for someone who craves peace and quiet, was beautifully quiet all weekend. The bathroom came replete with a vast number of top quality and deliciously fragrant Espa toiletries and all manner of other useful bathroom items like loofahs and nail files. Bedding was the highest quality linens and the pillows the softest feathers. I literally could live there and never want to get out of the bed! | Room service on the Friday afternoon was speedy- and as other reviewers have noted the tomato soup is excellent. | Turndown in the evening meant we were welcomed back into our room with mood lighting on, little linen mats by the bed with soft slippers, bottled water and glasses by the bed and sea salt caramel chocolates by William Curley in beautiful bespoke black boxes on our turned down feather quilts. Yes I know we are paying for these wonderful little touches but my goodness The Corinthia does 5 star luxury in style. | My welcome at reception was friendly and professional- something that was repeated with every staff member we came into contact with\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdfrom bar staff in The Bassoon Bar (see my separate review), breakfast wait staff in the Northall, to the concierge who came up to re-set our safe when my friend forgot the code she had entered! Their customer service is really first class- bellmen, room service waiters, to the spa tem on reception in the Espa Spa. Everyone of them was polite and friendly and as you walked past staff in the restaurants they would always greet you and say good morning. Mightily impressive. | Location wise it is perhaps 2 minutes walk to Embankment tube, two minutes to Charing Cross tube and in a delightful location by the Thames. Perfect for theatre breaks or just to enjoy that beautiful part of London down by Whitehall and St James\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd Park within a few minutes walk. | The Espa Spa covers 4 floors and was perhaps the only slight disappointment and I am being picky when I saw slight. I went on my own on the Friday and had a lovely time in the lap pool, hydrotherapy pool and sauna. Changing facilities are top notch with pristine white robes, towels and slippers available. However, when we returned on the Saturday afternoon- it was much busier and to be honest that part of the spa isn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt that spacious so with a larger number of guests it definitely felt a bit cramped. To make matters worse there were a handful of guests who had clearly never been in a spa and talked at the top of their voices and made the atmosphere less than relaxing for others. Funnily enough I thought the limited hours when children could use the pool would make it noisy but the little chap who was there with his parents on Saturday was as quiet as a mouse bobbing around in the pool happily whilst two women threw ladlefuls of ice at each other near the sauna. I don\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt think the hotel can be held accountable for the behaviour of their guests in this respect so I wouldn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt take any marks away from The Corinthia but perhaps a staff member could be assigned to the floor to ensure a spa like atmosphere is kept for all the guests. The sleep pods on a higher level of the spa were exquisite little cocoons with blankets and open foors that soon had me nodding off. My friend had a massage and said it was sublime. | Breakfast- if not included in your room tariff is the usual 5 star hotel prices. However we opted for a la carte options and were impressed. The hot chocolate came in a small silver pot and accompanied by a plate with three china pots containing marshmallows, whipped cream and a large heap of perfectly curled chocolate shavings, to allow my drink to be made to my taste. Toast was hot when it arrived and not overly hard, with Cornish salted and unsalted butter and a huge array of preserves to sample from lemon curd to acacia honey. | Would I return? In a heartbeat.

The price we paid led me to expect a hotel experience like that of The Connaught or The Ritz, but our overall experience fell a good bit short of that. | First the good: our room we very good indeed. Excellent in fact. It was the Executive King: very well designed, with the bathroom across the little hallway from the bedroom and a nice walk-in wardrobe between them. Plenty of space. The bed and the aircon were top notch and we had a good night's sleep. | The public spaces, however, were not as pleasing. When we first arrived I was struck by the dullness of the reception area. There was something Soviet about its bland austerity. The Northall Bar is a very large, empty over-lit space which would be great for performing surgery on large animals, or even as a slaughterhouse, but for a bar it lacks charm. If only The Bassoon Bar were open all day, and not just in the evening, then guests would have a decent alternative watering hole. The Crystal Moon Lounge has the potential to be like One Aldwych in its hay day, which had a good mix of people and social buzz, but only customers taking afternoon tea can sit at the larger sofa groupings. This limits the mix of people as well as guests' choice of where to sit and, along with that, our feelings of belonging and experience of hospitality. | In short we found the public spaces charmless, for a host of reasons. We met friends there and we all commented on this and that the staff were often a little too stiff and not very happy. I wonder if they were understaffed and stressed? | The location of the hotel was good in that it was so central. But it is very difficult to find the hotel, which became a little irritating!

Having stayed at the San Francisco one back in May, I had high expectations. The experience was fantastic, and the service was classic Mandarin Oriental--impeccable. | From the moment that my car arrived at the hotel, service was first-class. Check-in was a breeze, and the room had already been prepared with a welcome card personalized for me. Even the TV in the room was programmed to welcome me by name. The bellmen were prompt and unobtrusive in bringing up the bags, and the manager who brought me up even offered me a complimentary drink which was promptly brought to the room. | I stayed in room 127, which was easy to get to (up one flight of stairs). My particular room layout was a little peculiar, but I expected a small room, coming from New York. The bedroom itself is a wee bit small, but the bed was very clean and comfortable, and there were nice amenities like slippers next to the bed, and bottled water at the nightstand. Unfortunately, there was no view--the window was frosted, I think it only opened up to a view of nothing. | The TV was a very impressive Bang & Olufsen flat-screen which might have been $10,000. The TV navigation was a little awkward because you had to scroll through a bunch of menus, but the TV itself was fantastic--very impressive. | The bathroom was huge, however. The bathroom was probably larger than the bedroom, and you never felt claustrophic. The towels were laid out on a heated rack which you could control the temperature of, and there was even a digital scale to weigh yourself. I think there was even a bidet, which I didn't use. | The room also had a decent-sized foyer, with hardwood floors and a good-sized closet with another set of slippers, shoehorn, etc. | My colleague was also staying at the hotel, and his room was laid out very differently, so bear in mind that you might get something different. | Gripes? The only gripe I can make is that on the day of checkout, I wasn't offered a late checkout (nothing was available). Also, after checkout, I had some time to kill, so I went to the restaurant. The food was great, but the service was very slow, and they managed to screw up my Caesar salad and included chicken which I specifically asked to leave off. The replacement took 20 minutes to arrive. | Also, there is a lot of construction in front, so getting around the streets there will require crossing a few more streets than usual. | On the other hand, I left some small silver cufflinks in a dresser drawer and didn't discover this until I got back to the States. Imagine my delight when I contacted housekeeping and found out that they found them. The hotel overnighted the cufflinks back to me in the States free of charge, and even included a nice blue box to mount the cufflinks in. | Would I stay here again? Absolutely. The service is impeccable. The restaurant experience wasn't great, but my room service experiences were good--it was probably just an off day. As far as the rooms...they are a little dated, but I preferred the rooms to the Lanesborough down the street, where another colleage was staying. | Maybe next time I'll go boutique, but for the location and service, it's hard to top the Mandarin.

At first our room seemed a little small with entryway, walk-in closet, bath (with tub, shower, WC, and double sinks), and bedroom. But as we settled in, it was a wonderful layout and our place of repose when returning from a tiring day. | I must say I overworked the concierge desk with a lost baggage issue and they were most helpful. Finally, after five days of frustration and countless phone calls by the concierge, it was returned. But the concierge helped not only with this but all our needs. Thanks to you all! | The restaurants in the hotel were excellent and we ate there numerous meals - which we seldom do on trips. But each time we had very good to exceptional food and superb service. One memorable lunch was at Massimo's and was one of the best for the trip (shrimp and citrus starter and broiled squid which was truly exceptional) and most reasonably priced (executive lunch menu) | We spend a lot of time in the lobby bar having a glass of wine after dinners. The chandelier is a work of art and we felt very special just sitting with it. | I don't think we've ever seen a more finely decorated room (actually the whole hotel). And the shower was one of the best we've ever seen. Whomever did the design and decorating deserves an award. | Our only area of \"less-than-stellar\" would be the room-service breakfast. It was very prompt and the coffee, tea, and other items were excellent but the omelets and eggs where just not very satisfying. We tried eggs as omelets, scrambled, fried, and poached but they just were just not how we liked them. This is a small complaint in the overall experience but eggs are just not that hard to cook! The staff did send a whole service of tea cakes to make up for our dissatisfaction one day, so they were trying! | The location, as noted by many, is very central to many of the attractions. So it is a very good base for that. Can't say we liked the neighborhood for strolling and finding restaurants. Of course, this is a busy, somewhat touristy part of London. It is a good thing taxis are readily available to enable visits to other areas. For most people this location would be great, but our having some mobility issues, taxis are required (while most could walk). | In summary, you get what you have paid for and those things are exceptionally delivered.

Here's what you need to know if you are thinking about staying in this slice of hotel heaven. | THE PROS | 1) Check in was really easy. It was fast and the guy that served us was a pleasure to deal with. He didn't try and force us to take the breakfast (very expensive) and I actually have my suspicions that we were upgraded to a higher grade of room. He also didn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt blink an eye at 2 girls sharing a double room which was a refreshing change. Very gay friendly! | 2) The room was lush. No plastic cheap and nasties in sight and everything from the huge TV, to the IPod dock and the kettle was of a high quality. The \"modern snacks\" (pringles, jelly beans etc) were also a nice touch. | 3) The bed was massive and very very comfy. I slept like a baby. | 4) Our room had the choice of a massive shower (seriously, 5 people could have got in there easily) or a huge tub. | 5) I can not fault the staff. I pretty much bombarded them with questions when we checked out and nothing was too much trouble for them. | THE CONS | 1) Ok, the location isn't that amazing but you will never find a hotel in London that doesn't involve some element of travel. The quiet location actually turned into a plus for us as the hotel was very quiet. Having said that, it was only a short walk from 2 tube stations so it wasn't difficult to get to the hotel in any event. | 2) The view from our room was terrible but we didn't care, as we didn't spend that much time in there at all. | This hotel was superb. It took us to an area of London that we hadn't been to before and showed us a new side to the city (around St Paul\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds). It's a 10 minute walk away from the new Museum of London (worth a visit) and it is very much an up and coming area of the city. | The Apex London Wall is well worth a visit.

We were allocated 307 and I can fully understand the frustrion of the gentleman who stayed in 507 as one coold not swing a mouse let alone the proverbial cat. | As with the public rooms, decoration is tasteful: the tiny shower proved very good and the toiletries very nice but there the plus points end. I have rarely seen such a teeny tiny room for two people, we could barely both stand up at the same time and when our daughter joined us it was imposible. The bed had a tiny gap one side, right against the window not large enough to use to access that side of the bed and it was the most uncomfortable bed on which I have ever slept. I had to climb over the end of the bed to get in and slept extremely badly as the bed made my back ache terribly. However the bedding was good quality and the turn down service with very nice chocolates, was a pleasant surprise. | On the first morning , I showered and was wrapped in a towel and my husband in the tiny bathroom , when there was a knock on the door and I opened it sufficient to answer:it was the chambermaid asking when she could make up the room . It was 8.30!! I told her we would be going out by 9.30. | We did go out to have breakfast as we had not taken the option. As I had to change for the garden party, something which should have been fun , but was extepremely difficult in the minuscule space, we were back by 12.30 and the room , to my annoyance,had not been made up . I rang reception to infom them and to tell them about the maid disturbing our ablutions at 8.30 and they offered to send someone immediately , which would not have helped me in my task of dressing in the cupboard that was our room in the time available. | I spoke to the reception staff when I left for the Palace and made it clear I was not happy about the maid knocking the door so early nor was I impressed by the fact the room was not made up nearly 5 hours later. | The refreshment supplies were also not replenished. | We had a second very disturbed night and left quite early the next day. | This is a hotel which is, like the Curate's Egg, good in parts. It is lovely to look at but there are staff issues and dreadful problems with the much vaunted Samsung tablets in each room and with the wifi across the hotel;there was a queue of guests behind me also looking for help to operate the tablet or to access the wifi on their own iPads.

So my husband went to the toilet to throw up and by the time he had come back about 15 minutes later the replacements had still not arrived, we decided we felt quite uncomfortable and our appetite had gone we informed staff we would prefer to just leave and go to our room, we were spoken to by the manager who was full of apologies and dealt with us as we'll as he could in that situation, I was rather upset as I had booked this night as a treat and had spent weeks planning which hotel to go to and to try to create a night that my husband would really enjoy and further weeks looking forward to the night when booked, and really could not be more embarrassed that this had happened to him, I'm sure that this mistake does not happen regularly but at the same time it I'd happen to us although to people who eat pork this may not seem like that serious an issue for Jewish\/Muslim people it is the worst thing that can happen and it is a very serious mistake for any restaurant to make let alone a restaurant like this. When we got to our room we called the hotel manager who had been already informed and offer erred us room service for free and again was full of apologies there was another issue as the room service which was ordered at 11.30 didn't turn up until 1.10am although being told at 12.30 tht it was in the lift and would be with us in minutes again the manager had to call us and apologise as apparently the prawns we had ordered were not in stock so I told him to send up the food without the prawns as we were rather hungry by this point again quite annoyed if the kitchen had just told us this it would not have been a problem but being codded along each time we called telling us the food was nearly there even though they hadn't even began cooking it again made another embarrassing mistake. | Anyway after the restaurants mistake we were dealt with very well by the management we were also the next morning told we would have breakfast on them although I had actually paid for breakfast to be included with the room the gesture was appreciated we were also given a complimentary tea and chocolates which was very nice of them, the problem seems more to be with standard of service of the general waiting and kitchen staff as both restaurant managers and the night hotel manager dealt with us very well and really went out of their ways to amend the mistake and to make us feel on leaving that we had enjoyed our stay. | So in overview it's a beautiful hotel and mostly staff are very pleasant and as a customer you are made to feel important and well valued, restaurant prices are average for the area although the food is not to the level id expected, drinks prices are quite expensive but then it is the savoy. It is a nice treat to be in such opulent surroundings and feels very English, I personally don't think I would stay again I would try a different 5 star hotel in the area but it is all in all a memorable stay although for us we will always remember it for the fact that they served us pork unfortunately.", "Location Of The Reviewer": "london", "Date Of Review": "11\/26\/2012" }, { "Property_Name": "The Rembrandt", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "Tom Petty Concert Hyde Park 2017", "Review Text": "great location, good service, nice breakfast buffet, well kept hotel.

While I enjoy the accommodations I must say that is not what sets the Rhodes apart. It is the willingness to be helpful, no matter what the request.

On my departure day I stopped into a convenience store and made a purchase on my way to Paddington station to catch a train to Heathrow. As the train departed I realized I had left the item, an antique shooting\/sitting\/walking stick at the convenience store.

After thinking again abut the Rhodes I contacted Chris there by email and asked if someone could perhaps check with the store(s) to see if the item had been found. After two attempts Chris advised that nobody at either store said they had found it. However, the Rhodes made a third attempt and the item was found and retrieved. I offered to Chris to compensate for the time and trouble gone to and was told that covering the shipping would be more than adequate. A nice gesture for sure considering the time and trouble they had gone to to fix my forgetfullness.

Der erste Eindruck des Hotels war sehr sch\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdn. Rezeption, Eingang, Restaurant und Lobby waren schick, interessant und sehr modern eingerichtet. Die Gegend in der sich das Hotel befindet zeigt sich in weniger sch\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdner Fassade, da anscheinend gerade viele neue B\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdros\/Hotels\/etc. dort errichtet werden. Alles voller Baustellen, wirk sehr trostlos. | Wie dem auch sei. Durch die T\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdr hineinmarschiert, schon die erste traurige \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdberraschung. Niemand der einen begr\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt noch jemand der einem mit dem Gep\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdck hilft. Da hei\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt es dann den 25kg Koffer die paar Stufen selbst nach oben zu schleppen. Naja. Beim einchecken gings weiter. Das Zimmer war noch nicht fertig, obwohl wir noch von zu Hause aus einen early check-in angefragt und best\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdtigt bekommen haben (angekommen sind wir dann gegen 11:00-11:30). Die Dame an der Rezeption war deutlich ganz neu auf dem Gebiet. Nicht mal mit dem Computersystem konnte Sie umgehen, auch hatte Sie Probleme damit die, meines Erachtens nach notwendige H\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdflichkeit aufzubringen, immerhin reden wir hier \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdber ein 5 Sterne Hotel, uns w\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdhrend des Wartens ein Getr\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdnk in der Bar anzubieten oder ein anderes Zimmer vorzuschlagen. Erst nach ein paar mal nachfragen, ob denn ein anderes Zimmer schon fertig sei, hat sie uns ein Upgrade auf ein gr\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd\u00ef\u00bf\u00bderes\/teureres Zimmer er\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdffnet, welches wir dann auch genommen haben. Wir haben alles gleich in Bar bezahlt und auch fr\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdhst\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdck f\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdr 3 Tage dazu genommen, was wir dann bereut haben, aber dazu sp\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdter mehr. Meine Frau hat sich w\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdhrenddessen hingesetzt, da ich noch Kleinigkeiten zu besprechen hatte, die ich auch zuvor in Wien schon bestellt und best\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdtigt bekommen habe. Dabei handelte es sich um Rosenbl\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdtter einer roten Rose, die auf dem Bett zu einem Herz geformt sein sollten, einen roten Rosenstrau\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd und einer Karte. Von all diesen \"Bestellungen\" hatte die Dame nichts mitbekommen, sie hatte keinen blassen Dunst worum es geht. Nun gut. Nach n\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdherer Erl\u00ef\u00bf\u00bduterung und einigen Telefonaten konnte auch dies gekl\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdrt werden. Jedoch war nichts von dem geliefert worden. Nach ca. 30 min ging ich mit meiner Frau mal eine Rauchen, quer durchs Hotel, raus zum Ufer der Themse. Da wir uns von Wasser sehr angezogen f\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdhlen haben wir uns dort sehr wohlgef\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdhlt und eine gem\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdtliche Zigarette geraucht. Danach ging es wieder rein in die Lobby. Vielleicht hat sich ja schon was getan. Nein. Noch kein Zimmer f\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdr uns und keine Blumen etc. Nach weiteren 10 Minuten kam der Manager auf mich zu und informierte mich \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdber den Stand meiner Rosenbestellung. Er werde sich darum k\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdmmern wenn meine Frau und ich das Zimmer verlassen um uns die Stadt anzuschauen. Ok. Dann nach weiterem Anstellen an der Rezeption, wieder 10 Minuten, bekamen wir die Schl\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdssel und gingen aufs Zimmer. Niemand hat uns begleitet und mit dem Gep\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdck waren wir wieder auf uns alleine gestellt. Noch haben wir keinerlei Erkl\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdrung \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdber Fr\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdhst\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdcksort und -zeit erhalten..... | Wir hatten das Zimmer 437 im 4ten Stock. Ein sehr sch\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdnes Zimmer mit Kingsize Bett und einer unglaublichen Aussicht direkt auf die Themse. Beim Zimmer gab es nicht wirklich was zu meckern. Wir gingen dann eine Runde durch die Stadt und als wir zur\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdckkamen waren auch die Blumen im Zimmer, sehr sch\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdn angerichtet. Fein. | Am 31. Dezember hatten wir unser erstes Fr\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdhst\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdck. Noch nie, in keinem Hotel, sei es Hostel\/3*\/etc. hatten wir so schlecht gefr\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdhst\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdckt. Zwei arten von trockenem harten Brot, Wurst und K\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdse von vorgestern und trockenes s\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdes Geb\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdck, das wars. Alt und grottig. Minus-5-Sterne-m\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdig. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdber die Eier und die W\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdrstl trauten wir uns nicht mal dr\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdber. Nicht mal richtig angefangen zu essen, \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdberbringt uns eine der \"Kellnerinnen\", die anscheinend auch zum ersten mal in diesem Bereich arbeitete, ohne jegliche Ausbildung und Kenntnisse, eine Rechnung \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdber 45 Pfund, f\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdr Fr\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdhst\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdck das unertr\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdglich war und au\u00ef\u00bf\u00bderdem von uns schon im vorhinein beim einchecken bezahlt wurde. Da wei\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd die linke Hand nicht was die rechte tut. Unglaublich. Dann musste das wieder gekl\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdrt werden. Mir wird Wasser nachgeleert, bei meiner Frau wird nicht mal gefragt. Unterster Standard. Noch mal, das ist ein 5 Sterne Hotel, das auch seinen Preis hat. Wir fragten nach der Karte, da man auch warme Speisen bestellen kann. Die Karten werden gebracht, wir stehen kurz auf um Saft nachzuholen, gehen zur\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdck zum Tisch, Karten weg. Nochmal danach gefragt..... | Nach dem Fr\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdhst\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdck ging ich zur Rezeption. Ich hatte einen Tisch f\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdr 2 bestellt im Restaurant f\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdr das New Year\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds Dinner. Auch alles schon von Wien zuvor nachgefragt und best\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdtigt bekommen. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdber Email und Telefon. Nein, auch dar\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdber wei\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd man nichts. Auch nicht \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdber die Karten die ich f\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdr die Silvesterparty in der dortigen Terassenbar bestellt habe. Wieder Telefonate und unz\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdhlige Emails.... 30 Minuten sp\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdter war auch das wieder gekl\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdrt, alles gleich bezahlt und zur\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdck ins Zimmer. Man muss dort 3 mal nachfragen, sonst wird auf einen vergessen. Meiner Meinung nach letztklassige Organisation. | Das New Year\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds Dinner: | Das Restaurant ist sehr sch\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdn im Erdgescho\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd zur Themse ausgerichtet. Beim Restaurantempfang stehen 6 Leute die alle gemeinsam versuchen den Namen und den Tisch in den Reservierungen zu finden. Ist diese Fars beendet wird man von einem jungen Studenten, der hier Teilzeit arbeitet, zum Tisch geleitet. Nachdem man 3 mal gefragt wird warum man denn auf das gratis Glas Champagner verzichtet, wird einem ein alkoholfreier Cocktail angeboten. Welchen man jedoch m\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdchte, wird nicht gefragt. Die Vorspeise (warm salad) ungenie\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdbar. Nach 3 Bissen wurden wir darauf angesprochen, das wir nicht bezahlt haben. Das Dinner und die Reservierung hatten auch ihren Preis. Wir waren noch nicht mal mit der Vorspeise fertig. Da es dem Personal unm\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdglich war so h\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdflich zu sein, das ganze nach dem Essen zu besprechen wurden wir w\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdhrend unseres Dinners unterbrochen. Wir mussten Gabel uns Messer zur Seite legen und mit der Rezeptionistin vom Vortag, die sich ganz salopp neben unsere Tisch hinhockte, anfangen zu diskutieren. Keine Manieren, keine Ausbilund, keine H\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdflichkeit.... Ah, da bat sie uns zum ersten mal an, Deutsch zu sprechen. Gut zu wissen. Wir hatten keinerlei Probleme uns auf Englisch zu unterhalten aber gut zu wissen. Als dann endlich besprochen wurde, das ganze nach dem Dinner zu kl\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdren konnten wir dann mit unserer Hauptspeise beginnen. Gerade mal den ersten Bissen von Gnocchi und Pilzen im Mund wird gefragt ob es denn besser schmeckt als die Vorspeise. Da wir beide einen vollen Mund hatten konnten wir nur nicken. Das Service war echt unterste Schublade und nicht mal einem 0 Sterne Hotel nahe. Nachspeise wieder ungenie\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdbar und nicht zu essen. | Am sp\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdten Abend gingen wir dann in den Rumpus Room, eine Bar in der obersten Etage des Hotels, mit (mir versicherter) offener Terasse, um die Feuerwerke zu Silvester zu bestaunen. Wir haben einen Tisch f\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdr 2 reserviert, und da man daf\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdr Tickets brauchte, haben wir diese am Vortag gekauft, um knappe 200 Pfund. Unser Tisch f\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdr 2 wurde zu einem Tisch f\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdr 10, da unser eigentlicher Tisch schon besetzt war und wir dann nur so nebenher umgesetzt wurden. Frechheit. | Die als sch\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdne, romantische und stilvolle beworbene Silvesterfeier entpuppte sich als unm\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdglich laute Snobparty. Die Terasse blieb zu, also konnte man nicht nach drau\u00ef\u00bf\u00bden, das Personal war hochn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdsig und unfreundlich. Die Band die spielen h\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdtte sollen, war nicht da... Wir bestellten Cocktails und fragten nach wenig Alkohol, da wir beide nicht viel trinken. Ein Bananendaiquiri, der noch nie eine Banane gesehen hat, mit gesch\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdtzten 99% Alkoholanteil und ein genauso ungenie\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdbarer Whiskey Sour. Wir fragten gleich nach der Rechnung, da wir uns unser Silvester nicht so vorgestellt hatten. Diese kam dann auch nach einer guten halben Stunde, nachdem wir gefragt wurden warum wir denn schon gehen wollen, als w\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdre das nicht unsere eigene Entscheidung. Ca 50\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd f\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdr 2 Cocktails. Wow. | Trotzdem verbrachten wir dann ein sch\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdnes (!) Silvester in unserem Zimmer, mit ein paar Blicken auf das Feuerwerk und (wieder mal) ungenie\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdbarem Room-Service-Futter. | Die Lage des Hotels ist gut. London Eye, Sea Life Aquarium und Big Ben sind ca. 10 Gehminuten entfernt.

They are comfortably off and are used to some of the nicer things in life, but I'm not - so the budget was important to me. However, I wanted to take them to see Buckingham Palace and then for a smart tea afterwards. I used Tripadvisor and read all the reviews of lots of nice London Hotels which do tea and eventually settled on the Dorchester, mainly because of the reviews which said the staff at the Ritz were condescending to guests. I wanted to my parents to feel special, not unworthy! | The best bit was flagging down a taxi and announcing 'the Dorchester' to the driver - my parents were so surprised; they had never been before. We were dropped off outside and the doorman helped us in. The staff inside were courteous and discreet - not snobbish, disinterested or over-the-top. We sat down (the tea area is right inside in the lobby area) and it is beautifully decorated with huge comfortable banquettes or big old-fashioned chairs. A cake stand, silver plate cutlery and tea-strainers, linen cloths and napkins and Limoges crockery were on the table when we arrived. Immediately a waitress came to see if we were ok and said she'd give us a while (which she did twice as we weren't ready.) The only thing which threw me was that another waitress immediately offered champagne, which my parents accepted happily, thinking it was part of the deal - but I hadn't chosen the champagne tea as it was another six pounds each and I'd bought some for later. Anyway, the tea was fantastic. They bought little sandwiches with the crusts cut off - five kinds - and then brought more and more. Unfortunately I ate too many as the pear and stilton one which had sounded so revolting was so nice and I had several. So, by the time the warm scones (plain or with raisins) arrived wrapped in a napkin, I was feeling a little full. The cakes arrived then too, and were a real treat. Some had gold leaf on and all were beautifully presented and tasted lovely. They offered more, and to my eternal and horrified regret I had to decline. A waiter in tails kept topping up the tea, which we thought was great but we realised at the fourth top up that he was just adding boiling water and it was getting weaker and weaker. I had Bangkok tea and it was fabulous! | The service was very good and we were surprised to find we'd been there two hours. As we left, I thought we'd go and have a look at the other end of the room just to see what was up there (let's face it, I don't go there every day) and the cocktail bar caught my Dad's eye... he knows I love a cocktail and offered me one. So there we all were having cocktails beautifully prepared by the barman in the Dorchester. It was fantastic and felt so special. As we were leaving, a lady behind the bar offered us a top-up. My mum's always one for a joke and asked if it was free. Yes, she said...so we had another, and it was free, and it was excellent! | By the time we left we felt we'd had such a lovely day and the surroundings, decor, ambience (everyone else looked crashingly wealthy and as though having tea at the Dorchester was sooo tedious dahlink) were perfect.

We found the hotel to be very old - elevator was always stopping at the wrong floor, we had problems with our toilet - it would not flush. We called for servicing several times and they could not fix the issue. We asked if we could change our rooms, but the maintenance person said it was too late in the evening to do so and there were no rooms available. The staff was not very knowledgeable and was unable to assist us with our travel plans when we asked for directions. They kept transferring the call to someone else and it took awhile before they could find someone who knew the answer. We also found the staff to be misleading - they advise the client wrong\/misleading info and try to blame the client for their mistake. | We think the hotel is overrated and needs alot of work on the decor, but more importantly find personnel who are knowledgeable, friendly, helpful and honest.

A very traditional British experience \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd at least visually from the pubic rooms, to the festive holiday decorations to the public areas. | Cons: | 1. While the immediate area is lively and convenient to shopping at Covent Gardens and some west end theaters, it can be dicey at night especially around the immediate entrance to the hotel with security nowhere in sight. | 2. Large crowds of local Brits as well as hotel guests enjoying the traditional and famous bars and restaurants create a cruise ship like experience\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd albeit a luxury one. During peak times it would not be uncommon to chase after reservations and lines to enter one bar or another restaurant. The formal dress of both staff and guests can most closely resemble the first class dining room on the Titanic. | 3. As famous and sophisticated as the hotel is, prices for basic items can be off putting and downright offensive. $50 per person for breakfast is somewhat extreme. The well intentioned and gentile staff may not speak English well enough to understand you \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd the first or second time around. | The Hotel is Best Suited For: | The first time leisure visitor to London who wants a seamless British experience with an expert and knowledgeable staff to give you assistance in your tourist endeavors and does not mind paying for convenience. | The Hotel is least suited For: | Economizers. People not comfortable dressing up or making reservations weeks in advance to have a drink at a bar. | We absolutely enjoyed our six-night stay at The Savoy during Christmas and would not hesitate to book a future stay. Our check in occurred about 12:30pm. We were warmly greeted by bellman who immediately took luggage and escorted us to the check in room. We were invited to sit down at desks while the formalities of check in were made. The entire experience is over-dramatic and perhaps over serviced with the routine questions about how my flight was, and if I needed one or two keys and what my plans were while I was in London. Of all the customer service staff I came in contact with at the hotel, our check in clerk \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd who shall remain nameless \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd was somewhat aloof and the least friendly by far of anyone other staff member we interacted with. He reminded us that we had a deluxe king, explained our virtuoso benefits which included breakfast for two daily, and noted our preference for an art Deco Room. He also noted that we had a third night free promotional rate \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd and he seemed generally disappointed somehow that we were getting a discounted promotional rate. Note we were still spending close to $700 a night. He encouraged us to accept an Edwardian room as it was ready immediately while we would have to wait \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdsome time\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd for an art Deco room. Off we went. | Guest Rooms | The Savoy has several room types available from basic rooms with a queen size bed to rather expansive suites. The lower priced accommodations feature city or courtyard views although the courtyard views are really just like looking down at what seems to be an air shaft. We did not like our first room \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd The Edwardian that was offered to us. While it was well appointed, it felt like an old person\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds bed and breakfast off a highway in some casino town in Northern Nevada gone assisted living facility. I felt Edwardian was code for second hand furniture from a garage sale ( although it certainly is not \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd and was in excellent condition). You either get this style or you don\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt. I felt the room was depressing. | After going back downstairs we were assisted by a very lovely young woman who was more helpful and was able to fine an art deco room for us more to our liking . Further, she didn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt seem pained that we had a promotional rate. The room had an \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdentry way\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd - which would ordinarily cost more. As is usually the case in these hotels, the longer you stay the less of an upgrade you receive. We had lunch and before you knew it, we were unpacking. The room was smartly appointed with A King Bed that was nicely dressed, heated bathroom floor with a tub and rain shower, the \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdentry way\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd and enough storage. Also included was a minibar, TV, large mirrors and armoire. There were two chairs and a small table. The room was comfortable and served the purpose. The d\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdcor felt more fresh and modern than our original but was very much in the art deco fashion. | We had issues both with the TV and safe not working. Staff immediately fixed both without an issue. We also thought we forgot to pack our toothbrush which we latter found, but a quick call down to housekeeping remedied that with the delivery of two toothbrush kits complete with toothpaste. The bathroom was stocked with toiletries from New York that were lackluster and boring. Still, there was everything you could imagine \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd including Q-tips . The hotel offered the usual dry cleaning and laundry for clothes (and was quick to return) as well as nightly show shine service. Leave your shoes outside the room before 2am and get them back by 7am. Don\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd say full service to this hotel! | Public Rooms | The hotel was lavishly decorated for the Christmas holidays and Charles Dickens would have felt very much at home. The lobby was small but in great condition except for the very uncomfortable sofas and chairs which seemed to me in need reupholster although I can\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt report rips or tears \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd just sagging support. | Saggy seats aside, the Lobby was the place to people spot. Just like captains night on a cruise ship, People began pouring into the lobby areas dressed to the nines. One thing was clear, all were having a fabulous time. The mood was upbeat, people were laughing and enjoying their time together. It was lovely to see and experience. | The hotel boasts several restaurants and bars that are beautifully appointed. Kaspar\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds was supposedly the premier restaurant at the hotel and indeed this is where we had breakfast every mooring. Of all the facilities, we found this disappointed the most. During our stay, the raw bar was occupied by sous chefs and not by fresh seafood. While the room was elegant and lovely in an art deco style keeping with the Savoy tone, we found the offerings and general quality of the food to barely we passable, expensive and not memorable. Of note was the 255 GBP Christmas dinner, per person, which consisted of turkey as an option. I find it offensive to provide guests the hospitality pf a $300 turkey dinner in a restaurant that is far from Michelin star rated. I also found it absurd that while our breakfast was included in the daily rate, options on the menu were upwards of 39 GBP for complete breakfasts. Having said that, guests dining there had a great time, were engaged with each other and did not seem to mind the pricing missteps. | Harking back to the Titanic days is the Thames Foyer which can be mistaken for the first-class dining room aboard the Titanic complete with the glass dome. You can have a similar breakfast here, Formal afternoon tea or some bites latter in the evening. One can listen to tunes from a piano player, or even dare to dance the evening away a la cruise ship style. We found food again barely passable and Tea was completely disappointing given Fortnum and Mason elaborate and traditional venue for example. Still, no guests were complaining and those that partook truly enjoyed the experience \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd just as we did. | Now about the American Bar. Several reviewers reported feeling disappointed here and noted the very high drink process and uncomfortable atmosphere. One review went as far as describing the bar as an overgrown train station lobby \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd and I would have to agree. During our several visits to the bar we found nothing really special about it although it was hoping with a very talented piano player on December 22. During the holiday season, it was nearly impossible to visit as it was packed and understandably so. We found that we were given the worst possible seats at first until we made requests for more appropriate seating. It was impossible to justify two orders of oysters and tiny tiny martinis for 120GBS and be services on a shelf. However, the bar was packed people were engaging and enjoying themselves and created for a festive atmosphere. | We also ate at The Savoy Grill \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd this is not part of the Savoy hotel but is part of the Gordon Ramsey chain. This was, by far, the most disgusting and disappointing meal I have EVER had \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd including a sandwich once in a Rome train station. The food was utterly disgusting, the service rude, and the room itself looked like a Greek diner in New Jersey. It is a stain on the reputation of the street it sits n let alone the hotel, and I would advise anyone based on my experience there to spend your money elsewhere. My beef was overcooked, tough and to me seemed like it was cooked the night before and warmed up . | Without question, we found the experience at Simpson\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds to hit high marks in every aspect. This is old world dining \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd much of it roasts from roaming silver carts. During our visit Champaign and drinks flowed, people were happy, service was on target and the food was delicious and fresh. Again, the price was somewhat exorbitant but the environment, the setting and the staff were worth the price. Simpson\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds nailed the great British traditional dining experience \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd and that is what you want when visiting London. If one looks closely in the corner you may get a glimpse of Ebenezer Scrooge and the entire Tiny Tim family have dinner. | We had our best bar experience not at the American Bar but at the Beaufort Bar. The room is snazzy, the seats comfortable enough, the tables wide and spaced apart enough and the drinks were great. | General Notes | As is a general problem in London, we found many of the gentile, well intentioned staff members \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd including servers \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd to struggle with the English language. Food and drink orders often were delivered incorrectly (Gin martini when Vodka was specified, a white Russian delivered when a black Russian was requested, an egg white omelets was delivered as a whole egg omelets). Staff was apologetic and polished in every case, but the struggle is something Tobe aware of. | The area surrounding the hotel is perfectly fine and lends itself to shopping and theater while being walking distance to some of the major highlights of London. I did observe unsavory characters in the entrance courtyard in from of The Savoy Theater and the entrance to the hotel. On Christmas Eve evening I was accosted by some character that looked like he was just released from prison \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd featuring a face that looked like he was hit with a bag full of nickels. I was of course completely dressed up, and he started a conversation with me about Americans all looking like characters from the Sopranos. I\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdm originally from Brooklyn, and he had no idea how close he was to being smashed into the glass window of Melba\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds. I also know this is part of life in a big city. I also know NEVER EVER To speak at any to these people. Ignore all the cute comments from Rick Steve\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds about striking up conversations with strangers on the street. You Should NEVER do that. A Hotel lobby bar is the perfect place to speak to others if you want to. Stay away from people in the street Instead if you are approached by someone looking to engage with you , just walk away. NEVER EVER engage them. They will distract you, and the aim is to ultimately rob you. I just walked back into the hotel. While he followed me, he turned back out the hotel door once he got inside and left. | I was somewhat amazed that for a hotel of this caliber filled with fully dressed people enjoying the holidays, that Hotel security was nowhere in site. There was no security in the courtyard as the gussied up arrived for dinner, and if there was security in the lobby, they allowed the vagabond looser to follow me into the hotel. | I do think The Savoy hotel demonstrates fine hospitality and yes, it is a tourist based hotel with perks. However, it is not a holiday Inn and guests, who can afford the $800 a night basic room during holidays, are fairly sophisticated. It is also fair to note charging obscene prices like $300 pp for a turkey dinner on Christmas \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd is both inhospitable and offensive to most. While no one is suggesting the Savoy offer prices comparable to The Salvation Army, there has to be a more SOPHISTCATED and INTELLIGENT compromise for appropriate dinner prices during a holiday. The offerings that day were all absurdly overpriced for very common and ordinary venues and food. | The hotel gets branded as a touristy spot in a central part of London and I think that\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds exactly why one should consider a stay here. As a tourist, you want information services, access to theater, quick transport, good food and comfortable accommodations. London is filled with many hotels that disappoint and I would not place The Savoy into that category.

I used to live in London and have been back several times. I decided to try the Savoy after it underwent its huge renovation and I'm glad I did. The location is fantastic - you can easily walk (40 mins along the Thames) or take the tube (Temple, Charing Cross and Embankment stations are close) into the City itself for business meetings, but then you're close to the West End for restaurants and entertainment at night. The room did not have much of a view (alley) but it was spacious for a London hotel room, the bed was comfy (a true King and not too soft) and the bathroom was huge - a walk-in shower with an amazon showerhead; spacious tub; warm towel rack and large vanity to put all of your toiletries. I was on a butler floor, which means you have a \"butler button\" on your phone and you have the same dedicated butler on a given day who delivers your room service and handles any other requests (pressing of suits, shoe shines, etc). I quite enjoyed having one person accountable for handling all services and each butler I had was courteous, friendly and efficient. Also, the staff at large were efficient and helpful. The Beauford Bar and the American Bar are each worth a stop - live music and terrific cocktails (though a bit steep in price at GBP 15\/per). I had dinner at the River Restaurant one night and the food itself was quite good, though the service could have been more prompt and polished. I also had High Tea and it was perfect - a must if you have not done it before and I recommend upgrading to include a glass of champagne to kick the tea service off.

Full breakfast included, thanks to American Express FH&R program. Reasonably spacious room toward the back (read: quiet) of the hotel- two closets in the entry foyer- spacious bathroom with his\/her sinks, separate bath and shower. There was also a bidet that provided us with at least several minutes of amusement. | The Dorch is on the east end of hyde park, across Park Lane. It is a brisk 5 minute walk to HP since you can't directly cross Park Lane (unless you have a death wish) unless you walk south to the pedestrian underpass. Green Park and Hyde Park tube stops are closest, both about 5 min walk from hotel. | Otherwise, there is not much immediately around the dorch- 5 min walk to Shepard's market (a small, socioeconomically normal enclave in the middle of an otherwise outrageously posh Mayfair neighborhood) or Oxford St and a hideously barricaded US Embassy (don't get me started). Kensington (Harrods, etc) is a good 12-15 min walk- but at least you can cut through Hyde Park and the lovely flower gardens along the southeast edge. | Had tea at the Dorch- $135\/two people. It is unbelievable to me that the English, who readily voice their disdain for loud, tactless Americans, allow constantly ringing cellphones during tea! Shockingly inappropriate, if you ask this ugly american. | Meals in general at the D are ridiculously expensive, especially given the overall mediocre quality. We did not eat in The Grill or China Tang- unbelievably pricey. Given the multitude of superb restaurants in London, we pretty much limited ourselves to breakfast. | The clientele are an interesting mixture of arabs, tourists, and englishmen wearing tophats (Royal Ascot horse races were happening). We were low-key Americans doing the usual tourist thing in jeans and casual clothing- we definitely stuck out but I didn't feel particularly ostracized. No one ever hassled us, except when we tried to unsuccesfully cut through the back door of the hotel as a \"shortcut.\" My bad. | Service is fine- not outstanding though. Calls to the concierge desk in the middle of the day went unanswered a few times. Maid service was excellent- discrete, fast, and thorough. Check in and check out went fine- they got the bill right on the first try pretty much. Overall, service is comparable to Ritz Carlton, Four Seasons, but not as good as Peninsula. | Summary: Although the location is considered great, I would suggest that the Dorch is actually a little bit off the beaten path, particularly if you like being able to easily walk (within 5-7 minutes) to restaurants, lounges, shopping, etc. It is outrageously expensive but I am hard-pressed to say it was really worth spending so much for what we hoped would be the quintessential English experience, especially with the constantly ringing cellphones during breakfast and tea. I would stay elsewhere if we went back. | P.S. Selfridges is far superior to Harrods- less tourists and WAAAAAYYY less emphasis on their own brand. For example, if you want to buy tea at Harrods, you can really only buy Harrods brand. If you go to Selfridges though, you'll have a ton of choices, only one of which is the Selfridges brand.

Well stocked mini bar at London prices of course. We ate in the restaurant Friday night but arrived too late for a table without a reservation so we perched at the bar we had the corn fed chicken which was fab!! Concierge helped with tour bus passes maps etc. We visited the rumpus bar which we loved the music was sensational and the atmosphere was buzzing!! Also vidited the dandylion bar which was nice too - only criticism of bars is maybe too dark could hardly read the menu. Anyway no complaints until Sunday evening we had planned to eat out but after a full day of being out and about we decided to book a table at the restaurant. All started out find got a window seat as requested. We ordered and our starters arrived the waiter who brought the food have a little description anyway we tucked in. As soon as my husband picked up the last piece of food from his plate a waiter who was passing whipped our played away so quickly I couldn't even pick him out of a line up! I thought that was a little rude or maybe a mistake but he also had not asked us how the food was which I only realised afterward. Anyway the main course arrived which was also quite good then something similar happened my husbands empty beer glass was swiped from the table and we were not asked to order. the waiter did not take a drinks order nor did anyone else come to take one which was slightly annoying then we finished our mains and after waiting for ten minutes for someone to clear our plates (many waiters and the waitress passed us a few times and could see we had finished) I had had enough. I stood up approached the waitress and asked for the bill she brought it to me to sign so she could charge the room she also did not ask was the meal ok did we want anything else she just sorted the paperwork and sent us on our way. Not what I would expect from this calibre of hotel in this location!!! I went to the reservation desk and spoke to a lady told her and she brought me the restaurant manager bree who was very nice apologised took responsibility and offered me champagne which I turned down - I hadn't complained to get freebies I was genuinely dissatisfied. However we did accept her offer of some wine and breakfast in our room we understand mistakes happen people get things wrong and we appreciated bree s attempts at compensating us. HOWEVER next morning after filling in the card and hanging it on our door for breakfast room service (as instructed) at 9am we were still waiting at ten past (bree had called room service the night before to advise them of the arrangement also) so I called room service and advised them we had not received our order to which the lady replied yes we know your card was stuck in the door so we couldn't take it.when I asked could they have let us know she said well they come around for the cards at 2am. I was furious - what a poor service, they knew we wanted room service because they knew the card was there I understand completely they could not remove the card no ones fault however they had made no attempt whatsoever to let us know. A note under the door or a phone call to say we could not read your card was all it would have taken but I felt like they simply could not be bothered.

Secondly, The Grill was exquisite at both dinner and breakfast, again the only slight niggle (and we were not looking for any) was one member of staff who was brisk with us on both evenings, and the wine service was a bit hit and miss, just a shame really as the rest of the staff went beyond the call of duty at all times.

The windows were small, the \"wardrobe\" was a curtained off rail, the bathroom was in fact a wet room with a walk in shower and no bath - OK, that's not unusual, but why provide robes and candles with no bath? Also the room was plenty big enough for a bath with lots of room wasted on a very large bench with a single hand basin on it!

Everybody we dealt with was polite, professional and friendly. My girlfriend and I were usually greeted by name and room service was always quick and courteous. | My main gripe is the blatant avarice of the hotel's owners.

I assume that this surcharge doesn't reach the waiter, who is probably on not much more than the national minimum wage, so it is most rapacious of the hotel's owners to exploit customers in this way. I'd rather not have to pay a delivery charge and tip the waiter in cash. | At least they notify you in advance that you'll be charged for room service.

All food and drink was of a high standard but our room, whilst spacious and with a beautifully appointed bathroom, had a few minor flaws, ill becoming of such a prestigious property: not one of the lampshades in our room was correctly aligned; the docking station for iPods was so worn that it would only play if the device was physically held in place; there was dust on one of the bathroom shelves; the television wasn't correctly formatted, so that widescreen broadcasts reached beyond the parameters of the screen; the fruit bowl wasn't replenished on a daily basis. | Overall, I'd say that The Dorchester is a fairly average five-star hotel and doubt that I'll be going back there.", "Location Of The Reviewer": "Purley, United Kingdom", "Date Of Review": "11\/28\/2012" }, { "Property_Name": "Apex London Wall Hotel", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "Apex London Wall - Perfect!", "Review Text": "We have stayed and reviewed a number of times at the Apex London Wall and it never fails to impress, so please forgive me if I'm repeating myself.

At a pinch, you could say I'm an ex employee. | | Although check-in time is officially 3pm, my wife and I were anxious to get settled into our accommodations, and so took a chance at arriving a tad early. We were nicely surprised when the Receptionist said we could be roomed, and graciously escorted us to the 3rd floor, where our room 4533 - was located directly opposite the elevator - hmm I thought as we arrived at the door. However, just before leaving the Lobby, our Host explained that their signature restaurant \"CUT\" by Wolfgang Puck - whom we had just missed as he was there for the opening - was having his first foray into Europe with this establishment - and suggesting we give it a try. I told her that we'd been to his premiere restaurant - Spago in LA - thanks to some friends of ours, so likely we would give this one a miss. She also pointed out that just up the stairs was what promised to be London's latest hangout - their Lounge Bar. | | Incidentally, all rooms are numbered 45xx where 45 is the hotel name, and the next two digits relate to the floor and room number. | | Just as our Host was about to open the door, a Housekeeper popped her head round the corner and said that the cleaner had not quite finished, and that the room would be another few minutes, politely suggesting we go away and come back. | | So, ushered back into the elevator we proceeded to the Lobby and entertained with some complimentary drinks. I must say this unfortunate incident was well handled, and honestly speaking, I preferred to wait for the room to be fully ready, rather than go in, and as I often do - find faults. | | The surroundings in which we waited were very pleasant. The Lobby is nicely appointed and has several interesting art deco objects intermixed with very comfy Connolly leather chairs that gave-off a wonderful new luxury car smell. | | After about 10 minutes, a Host approached us and further apologized for the delay - saying they have a few tech issues with the room and need about another 20 minutes to fix them. We agreed that would not be an issue - although my intrigued peaked as to what they could be. | | Finally the time came to go to the room, and we were once again escorted - this time making it though the door into the spacious and luxurious surroundings. | | One of the first things of note apart from the Welcome Fruit amenity complete with a banana and some figs, and a huge wall mounted B&O TV, was the temperature of the room - which I personally found to be uncomfortably hot. Incorrectly believing that could quickly be addressed later, we proceeded with the check-in process and small tour of the room facilities. | | As part of the rooming process, pointed out to us were the three Alcatel-Lucent touch screen phones - one on each side of the bed and another on the desk, and how one would use these to basically control all of the tech functionality in the room - A\/C, curtains, lights. This was going to be fun I thought. Then I was shown where the Teleadapt connectivity panel was (not the cables), plus the safe and hair dryer. Also pointed out was the mini-bar and Nespresso machine - at which point we were asked if we would like to have a coffee - I declined the offer. | | We thanked the Host for her assistance and she left, saying she could be contacted by phone if required. The luggage arrived quickly, and finally we were on our own. It was now time to analyze the room. | | First thing first, was to try and cool the room down - and by using the Touch phone which is interfaced to the Control4 Room Control system and Lutron Lighting system, I adjusted the required temp to 20c from where it was being unbelievably indicated as 59c. | | Next on my mental to-do list, was to walk through the room exploring the different facilities, while taking photos as a permanent record. | | The first discovery was a most pleasant one - the mineral water and fruit juices in the minibar were supplied with the hotel's compliments. However, the Coconut water - my real favorite, was not. It's a pity that that wooden door attached to the front cover of the mini-bar would not close properly after opening. Never mind I thought, the Housekeeper will discover this during turn down service and fix it. | | Next was the surprise of finding of an unsecured inspection panel covering the Room Control System - the brains controlling the room. This was a fascinating discovery and the photos will show you just how much investment was made into this complex system. And it was at this juncture where I had to ask my wife to take a look at this discovery and see for her self what I had found - not just the open door, but also the builder's rubble on the floor and left over cable shielding and various miscellaneous pieces of rubbish. Although it's not the first time for me to find such a mess at a newly opened hotel, I was quite surprised as the room was otherwise very clean. After all, they had already been open for a few days before we checked-in, the room was cleaned after being handed back by the Contractors, and then I understand there was a 2-week simulation period where the room should have also been used - I think, as well as snagged\/critiqued and cleaned - anyway, more on that later. | | Next up was the bathroom - complete with double vanity, separate WC with mobile phone shelf, Shower and nice sized bathtub. Pity we were not to have enough time to enjoy all of the facilities. The (Electric Mirror) Bathroom TV was a nice touch and the mood lighting worked well. Absent from the Vanity area of the bathroom was a hook where I could hang my wash bag - so I was forced to suspend it from the illuminated shaving\/makeup mirror - not really a great option - just more out of desperation. | | Click here for photos | | Thinking about working in the room, I then setup my notebook on the desk and connected it to the concealed power sockets - they did not work. I tried a couple of other devices, alas with same result, so I stretched my power cable to the connectivity panel embedded into the side unit under the TV - they worked. The power socket arrangement at the desk is interesting; there are two GB sockets, one US 125V socket and one European type connection. Oh yes, there is also a fax port. Do people still use fax? | | For some reason I could not connect to the Wi-Fi - but was able to get online with the wired connection at the desk. So I just created my own Wi-Fi network by sharing the Ethernet connection from my MacBook Pro. The Hotel has a strange charging policy - 24hours = GBP19.50, but you can get a free 1-month connection with 192kbps (see screenshot), so I opted for the free one. No one explained the difference, or limitations. I was just happy to save the twenty quid. | | The TV worked well - with quite a few FTG channels, and a fairly good selection of PPV movies and on-screen Internet - all of course chargeable through the iBahn etvi system. | | It was now time to go out and meet some friends across town - so we went back to the Lobby and I reported three things at the Reception desk: | 1. Temperature | 2. Mini-bar door | 3. Desk power | I don't recall the lady apologizing when I mentioned these, just saying they would send an engineer - and we left. | | Returning around 11pm, we stopped off for a quick nightcap in the 1st floor bar, and then headed up to the room. I noticed some of the Executive Management was also there taking a late supper. My wife was treated to a comp sip of locally distilled Vodka, which the Barman explained was made just round the corner. Nice touch, and the almonds were delicious. | | Arriving at the room door, I inserted the key in to the lock only to have it rejected, I tried again - same problem so I tried the 2nd one - no luck. So we headed back down to Reception for a new key - lucky our room was by the lift, and it was only three floors to Reception, which was also situated just by the Lift on the Ground Floor. The lady receptionist said I must have placed them near my mobile phone or credit cards - which I had not, but even if I had done so - they should not have become unusable and she should not have chastised me for doing so. Oddly, as she was just about to cut the new keys, she asked me for my room number, although it was clearly written on the key cardholder I gave her. I guess she was just flustered... | | So, back to the room we went, this time escorted by another Host just to make sure we could get in, and all was good. | | By this time the room felt a bit cooler, but still warm. The room had been serviced and a small plate of chocolates left for us. I don't eat chocolates but my wife said they were nice - so that's ok. | | A single bottle of water and glass was placed on one side of the bed, yet there were two of us - I guess we were meant to share.... | | The mini-bar door had been fixed, but when we opened it to get a bottle of cool water - the same issue happened with the door - meaning there must be a design defect. | | Power had been restored to the sockets at the desk, as well as and the illuminated vanity mirror built into the desk, so an engineer had definitely been to the room - but he had not closed the floor inspection panel by the desk. I later noticed that some of the rubbish materials left by the inspection cabinet had been removed - some that is, not all. | | Getting into bed, and figuring out how to control the lights and other services was very difficult. Often the buttons were non-responsive when depressed, and when they did work - the response time for the actual function to take place, was fairly delayed. One time, the desk unit auto re-booted with the process taking about three minutes to complete as it cycled through the six-stage process. | | One of the things I could not work out, was how to just switch on the desk lamp, and no other light - allowing me to work during the night, while not disturbing my wife. I also could not figure out easily how from a totally darkened room, how to just switch on a low light to get to the bathroom. I guess I should have just used the reading light affixed to the side of the bed. | | During the night, there were several odd sounds in the room - like clicks and beeps, which we think were emanating from the Emergency Broadcast speaker - but could not be sure. We both heard it, and remarked about it after waking in the morning. | | Still trying to cool the room down, I played with the wall mounted control panel, only to discover that although the day and month were correct, the year showed 1972. Looking at the phone, which should have had the same information, the date and time were correct - how bizarre! | | The Nespresso machine worked well, although my wife could not have her usual Green Tea in bed since there was no Kettle. She had to settle for plain water. | | Taking a shower was very pleasant - although a little unusual. The water pressure was good, and oversized amenities nice - excuse us, but we took the excess with us. But what we both noticed was the very soft water and how it was difficult to know if you had actually removed all the soap - ones skin just felt so smooth. I guess we are just used to hard water in Asia. | | All good things must come to an end, and it was time to check out - so we headed downstairs. I asked my wife to take a seat again in the nice comfy leather chairs while I handled the formalities. During the checkout process there appeared to be some problem printing a copy of my folio, and while that was taking place, I was approached by a lady standing in front of the Reception counter who graciously, yet embarrassingly (for me) introduced herself as Marie-Laure Akdag - Hotel Manager. | | Somehow I guessed this was who she must be, and frankly hoped she would not want to have to long discussion due to the preceding experience of what had happened upstairs. Anyway, when she asked if we had enjoyed our stay I simply replied, \"It was interesting\", and did not go into detail. Of course, she could not have asked if we'd stayed there before, but did inquire if we would be returning, to which I replied, \"That may be a possibility...\" and we left it at that. | | Date of stay - 3rd\/4th September 2011", "Location Of The Reviewer": "Hong Kong", "Date Of Review": "9\/13\/2011" }, { "Property_Name": "Mondrian London at Sea Containers", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "A sleek dream of a hotel", "Review Text": "I've stayed at the Mondrian several times on business.

We had a Junior Suite with balcony. It was a pleasant enough stay, but one doesn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt expect to have to be a furniture removalist or to make your own bed most evenings, as we did (because housekeeping couldn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt understand or remember that we wanted a sheet under the doona). So, be aware, there are a few annoying issues for a hotel that is not inexpensive. | Basically it\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds a business oriented hotel in the centre of the city, which suited us fine. It has easy access to two metro stations and is walking distance of a lot of inner city attractions with good food nearby except on weekends when the whole place is deserted and very quiet. The staff are very pleasant and efficient, although the housekeeping service was sometimes a bit hit and miss and sometimes forgot items.

Room service is prompt. | Our room was clean and well appointed, but it wasn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt set up for the convenience of guests, especially those staying more than one night. We took a suite because we imagined one of us could get up and have a cup of tea or breakfast while the other slept, but since the jug, fridge, etc are tucked away in the wardrobe on the far side of the bedroom this proved not possible without waking the other person. The bathroom has enough room to hold a party, with a handbasin long enough to bathe a baby or wash your jeans, but there is NO bench space, nowhere to put a toilet bag or your cosmetics. We ended up bringing in the plastic table from the balcony just to have somewhere to put things (hardly salubrious). | I guess not many people travel with two computers, as we do, but even if not, an easily moveable table for drinks, laptop, etc in the sofa area would be a nice touch. We ended up moving the bedside tables into the living space and the very heavy side table was used as a bedside table. | Things like the \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdturn down service\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd putting the air con temp up to 25 degrees and closing all the curtains at something like 6.00pm on warm summer evenings was annoying.

The result is stunning. The hotel was restored to it\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds former glory and the rooms are now equipped with all the modern amenities and conveniences. | My Europe holiday trip as usual has the most time allocated to my favorite city in the world, London and I actually booked this hotel for 6 nights, with an in between one day trip to Paris. It is not usual for me to stay so many nights at one hotel so there is a bit of risk that this hotel might not measure up. Feedback from season travelers in travel forums have critiqued the hotel as anywhere from being impersonalized ( it\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds a big hotel after all ) to being unnecessarily stringent over dress codes. Well, my concerns turn out to be totally unfounded. | Arrival | I booked a hotel limo from the airport to the hotel, a Mercedes Benz S-Class as I have a lot of luggage. The driver picked me up at the exit gate and also help with luggage. The journey was longer than usual as it was London\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds peak hour traffic. Upon arrival, I was greeted warmly and checked in to my room. The lobby gave me a very good impression. It\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds beautifully appointed and grand, yet feels cozy at the same time. There are lots of painting and artwork adorning the walls and common areas. | My accommodation | As a large hotel, the Savoy have many categories of rooms, depending on size, view, amenities and service levels. I booked a junior suite and was upgraded on booking courtesy of my well-connected travel agent to a One Bedroom suite. On arrival, the hotel did one step better and upgraded me further to an even larger River View Suite. Upon arrival at my room, I was greeted by a very well dressed English gentleman who introduced himself as the head butler. | I have been traveling and staying at luxury hotels and resorts in Asia and Europe for 10 years now, both for business and leisure. It takes a lot and a lot for a hotel room or suite to impress me. However, this suite room does it. On entering the suite after the entrance foyer, one first noticed the impressive view of the Thames River with the London Eye flying wheel. The suite is what the hotel called the \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdArt Deco\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd design versus another style that is the \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdEdwardian design\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd. | The suite is neatly divided into a large living room and a bedroom in about equal area. The living room is gorgeously appointed, with a separate work desk and a small library ( yes they put real books there! ), large sofa and chairs. The stationaries were personalized with my name and the in-room dinning menu and a booklet about the history of the hotel were nearly stacked in the writing desk. The bedroom has a large king size bed, decked out with 4 comfy pillows and some of the most luxurious bed linens I have the pleasure of sleeping in my travels. Everything in this suite is beautifully adorned or decorated and tastefully done, with great attention to detail. | There is a walk in closet which also house the safe, and the bathroom is a full ensuite with the famous savoy shower-head. Bath towels and bathrobes are fluffy and extremely comfortable. They even have a heated towel rack. The tub is huge and easily fit two persons. The supplied toiletries are quite nice though I find their packaging to be unusual, more like medicine bottles than bath products. Water pressure is great and the shower settings are easy to figure out with clearly labeled functions. | The in-suite technology is also quite good. The hotel spared no expense and equipped the suite with a very stylish Loewe TV, blu-ray players and Meridian iPod dock sound system. Also included are Nepresso coffee machine and a large selection of teas. Internet access is free for President Club\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds members ( a free sign up ) and is very fast. As I booked the suite, all calls were directed to my Butler who attended to my request. More on that later. | I stayed in this suite for three days and after my one day trip to Paris ( a disastrous stay at a supposedly top hotel ), I was very glad to come back to the Savoy and was very surprised and happy to be upgraded to a River View Suite again. This time it was at the Edwardian wing and the color scheme is more beige and warm creamy yellow. Besides the difference in color scheme, everything else is the same as the first suite and also comes with Butler service. | Common Areas and Restaurants | The feeling of staying in this hotel is generally that of a staying as a guest at a Palace or a very high end mansion or castle of a English nobleman. One is surrounded by beauty. There are many times I will just stop to admire a painting or an artwork while on my way out or on my way to my room. The hotel has two wings of rooms, an Art Deco wing and a Edwardian wing and there are a total of 3 restaurants, two bars and one lounge. Besides the Simpsons and the Beaufort, I have tried all of them. Here\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds the run down | - Kasper | I had my first night dinner at Kasper on arrival and the food is fabulous. I love their lobster and various seafood and fish dishes. This restaurant has a more modern contemporary look compared to the rest of the hotel. The prices I find to be very reasonable as well. Unlike some hotel restaurants that tend to over-charge, prices are very reasonable and on-par with outside restaurants. Breakfast served at this restaurant was also great. Be aware that all the food portions are huge. I have to actually ask my waiter to down-size the portions for me in order not to waste food. | - The Thames Lounge | This is a laid back and relaxing lounge of the Savoy full of comfortable sofas and seating area. I had a breakfast and an evening snack here and food quality is great too though I think the evening snacks seem to be prepared in advance and not that fresh. However, for a quick meal and a place to relax, this is the place as it is exceptionally well appointed, quite possibly the nicest place in the hotel. One can enjoy lazing around the comfortable lounge chairs to read a book or browse the internet while having a leisurely breakfast. The lounge is packed full house everyday in the afternoon for afternoon tea, which I think must be very popular with Londoners. | - The Savoy Grill by Gordan Ramsey | I once had a disastrous dinner at the Gordan Ramsey restaurant at the Claridges which cost me more than 200 pounds for extremely medicore food. So upon chancing this restaurant name again, I was unwilling to try. Nevertheless, I changed my mind and decided to \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdpop in\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd without reservation just to sample one or two dish. Besides, the prices don\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt seems too overtly expensive for a restaurant by a celebrity chef. The restaurant as expected was nearly full. Nevertheless, upon learning that I am a hotel guest, the restaurant somehow managed to conjure up a table for me. | The seating in this restaurant is a bit on the cramp side with tables closed to each other. I ordered a three course ala carte meal; A foie gras patty starter which I find just ordinary, a lamb cutlet which was quite tasty and succulent and the best one comes at the last, a sumptuous apple pie desert with vanilla ice cream. | - The American Bar | Saving the best for the last, I visited the American Bar at the last night of my stay. Going into the Bar is like traveling back in time. The atmosphere was relaxing yet there was a certain buzz in the air. The music was great, with live performance and there were many creative cocktails to sample, recommended to me by a very friendly bar hostess. I got to learn about the background and creation of each cocktail and most of them were favorites of distinguished celebrities such as Charlie Chaplin and Coco Chanel. | The hotel also has a cake shop which sell tea and pastries. There is a well-equipped gym and swimming pool as well along with numerous conference rooms and function halls. It\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds a large hotel. The hotel does have a recommended dress code which is smart casual, but as long as one is not running around in undergarments and flip-flops, I don\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt think it is very stringently enforced. | The Location | The hotel is located in the Strand of West Minster district. It is a short walk from the London tube station ( Charing Cross ). The famous Trafalgar square and other historic sites such as parliament building are also within walking distance. The location is great if one likes to stay close to the river and historic tourist sites, but no so ideal for high end shopping which is located at the Knightsbridge and Bond street as it is several stops including a change of line. However, this is London and going everywhere is quite easy, just allow a bit more time. | The Service | As every hotel connoisseur knows, a luxury hotel eventually rise and falls depending on the service and in this aspect, the Savoy rises magnificently. As I was upgraded to suites in both my stay, they come with Butler service. Now the butlers in Savoy are not like the butlers in many other hotels which are glorified but often clueless housekeeping staff. These butlers actually make a real difference. The butlers took care of all request and ensure it is attended to timely, ensure things like laundry and in-room dinning are delivered on time, housekeeping is done correct and they can also provide concierge service. It was the first time I ever asked the Butler to handle packing my luggage which was a lot since I was in a shopping spree throughout Europe and it was amazing how they neatly fold everything and put everything in order and did so at record speed. Need to mention also the Butlers at the Art Deco wing are the best in both finesse and efficiency, including remembering all requests and preferences and are exceptionally friendly. The butlers at the Edwardian wing are somewhat less so but still very good. Without exception, they are all polite, friendly and exceptionally well trained. | Service at the other aspects especially in the restaurants were all good, including the waiters and captains of all the restaurants I patronized. I have particularly fond memory of the beautiful bar hostess Ms Gosha, who took time to chat with me and also recommended and prepare several excellent cocktails. | Likewise, concierge staff were very efficient in answering questions and attend to requests like restaurant bookings and this is done even prior check-in. Upon check-out during my first stay, I was a bit concerned I will be allocated a small room but the reception staff who checked me out, Mr Julian assure me that the hotel will do their best to allocate at least a junior suite. So imagine my surprise when I re-checked in to the Savoy and got a Riverview Suite! | In general, everyone is very cheerful and friendly. Staff often greet you good morning or afternoon or by name if they have previously interacted with you. Upon departure, the hotel also \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdupgraded\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd my car from a Mercedes to a Savoy customized Range Rover which is very comfortable ride. So all in all my stay is just perfect. | Conclusion | The Savoy is an exceptionally well run hotel. It offers first class accommodation, excellent F&B and attentive and world class service. Just to be impartial, do take note however that I was staying at suites and comes with Butler service which makes a lot of difference so one need to take this review from this perspective. If one books just a basic room, I can\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt say it is the same experience as I mentioned but I am quite sure it will be more than good for most. If the hotel can please such a fussy and well-traveled guest like me, then I am quite sure the vast majority will be very pleased with their stay. In my opinion, the Savoy surpasses my previous favorite hotel in London, the Four Seasons Park Lane and is yet another good reason why I will return to London again.

To be absolutely clear the hotel dealt with the issue and changed our room to an upgraded river view room on the 4th floor quickly apologetically and efficiently for our second night. Secondly, whilst appreciating the general expense of London, the prices of food and drink are verging on ridiculous with the increasingly presumptions inclusion of a 12.5% service charge on everything. The corporate customers probably fail to notice this but the weekend visitors on tight budgets inevitably will. In summary though this hotel is recommended subject to advance cost awareness.

Ich sch\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdtze das Zimmer inkl. Bad auf 16-18 qm. Sehr gro\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdes, sehr bequemes Bett, davor ein Bistrotisch mit zwei Cocktailsesseln, Kofferablage, relativ gro\u00ef\u00bf\u00bder Schreibtisch. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdber dem Schreibtisch befand sich eine Steckdosenleiste, in die neben britischen auch US- und EU-Steckdosen eingelassen waren. Wer seinen GB-Adapter vergessen hat, kann also hier bequem sein Handy etc. aufladen. Im zweit\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdrigen Kleiderschrank befindet sich ein Schubladenelement mit Safe, au\u00ef\u00bf\u00bderdem ein B\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdgelbrett. Dadurch hat man nicht sehr viel Platz, um M\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdntel und Hosen knitterfrei aufzuh\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdngen; f\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdr eine kurze Gesch\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdftsreise reicht der Platz aber aus.- Man kann sehr viele Fernsehkan\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdle empfangen. Zu meiner \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdberraschung waren darunter sogar ein paar deutsche Sender, z.B. ZDF und 3sat. Eine Liste, auf der steht, welches Programm auf welchem Programmplatz gespeichert ist, w\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdre hilfreich gewesen. Im Zimmer gibt es eine Klimaanlage, die sich sehr individuell einstellen und zum Gl\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdck auch ausschalten l\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdsst. Durch die vielen Funktionen musste ich eine Weile herumprobieren, bis ich die gew\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdnschten Einstellungen gefunden hatte. Eine Kurzanleitung neben der Steuerungseinheit w\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdre nicht schlecht. Vielleicht gibt es sogar Anleitungen f\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdr Klimaanlage und Programmbelegung des Fernsehers. Im Zimmer gab es allerdings sehr viel Informationsmaterial zum Hotel und zu London, und ich hatte nicht die Zeit, mir alles genau durchzulesen. Immerhin kann man die Klimaanlage auch ausschalten. Da mein Zimmer auf der r\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdckw\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdrtigen Seite des Hauses lag, konnte ich ohne Probleme bei offenem Fenster schlafen. | Das Bad war sehr sch\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdn, modern und pieksauber. Gro\u00ef\u00bf\u00bder Waschtisch mit vielen Ablagem\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdglichkeiten, Wanne mit Duschtrennwand und vielen Brausefunktionen, gute Beleuchtung. | Das Fr\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdhst\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdcksbuffet ist sehr \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdppig best\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdckt und vielf\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdltig. Besonders positiv \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdberrascht war ich von der Auswahl der verschiedenen Brotsorten. Ich war zu einer Fortbildungsveranstaltung in London, die ebenfalls im Rembrandt Hotel stattfand: Mittags gab es Buffet im Hotelrestaurant. Auch das Mittagsbuffet war ausgezeichnet: viele verschiedene Brotsorten, reichhaltige Auswahl an Salaten, Fisch (toll!), Fleisch, Gem\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdse, Beilagen, sehr leckere Desserts. Dieses Buffet bietet moderne britische K\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdche, die l\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdngst viel besser ist als ihr Ruf. | Einmal habe ich abends in der Hotelbar einen Salatteller gegessen und einen Cocktail getrunken. Der Salatteller bestand aus verschiedenen Blattsalaten, Fisch, Garnelen und einem leckeren Dressing; dazu gab es Wei\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdbrot. Mit knapp 15 GBP nicht ganz billig, aber sehr reichhaltig und damit eigentlich schon eine Hauptmahlzeit. Auch der Cocktail war gut gemacht und nett angerichtet. | Die Konferenzr\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdume befinden sich in einem Seitenfl\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdgel im Erdgeschoss. Kleiner Nachteil: Die R\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdume sind recht hellh\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdrig. An einem Tag befand sich offenbar nebenan eine andere Seminargruppe, in der stellenweise recht laut gesprochen und auch geklatscht wurde. Auch Trittschall war gut zu h\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdren (allerdings nur in den Seminarr\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdumen, nicht in den Hotelzimmern). Das empfand ich als ein wenig st\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdrend. | Die Fahrst\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdhle im Hotel kann man \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdbrigens nur mit der Schl\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdsselkarte verwenden.

Instead of explaining this and asking if I wanted to wait or move to another room I was just moved, down the corridor from my friends which then felt like I was a lone traveler.

The bed was so comfortable and the comforter kept up nice and warm. I had the luxury of taking a bath in the beautiful claw footed tub with their delicious Rose 31 scented bath salts. It was a divine experience lounging in the tub surrounded by white marble, staring at the intricate, old style bath fixtures. There was fresh fruit and a complimentary water waiting for us in the room which helped considering how expensive water is in Europe.

From the moment of pulling up to the hotel it is clear the staff treat you with a different level of attention compared with more ordinary hotels, from the second your transport opens you are in a whole different world. Check in begins from the first moment your door opens with discrete communication ensure a personal check in experience as soon as you enter the building. With a greeting by name at the entrance to the hotel you are checked into your room in a stunning room off the main hall of the building prior to being personally escorted to your room or suite. | I stayed in a partial river view junior suite on the 8th floor which was perfectly laid out with a large bedroom with the most comfortable bed I have encountered in my life. On the other side of the suite was a perfectly decorated and furnished sitting room complete with the typical fittings, luxurious but without feeling overdone. Sandwiched between sitting room and bedroom was the stunning bathroom complete with shower over a good deep bath well stocked with luxury toiletries. | As I was in the suite I was welcomed to the suite by Francis a magnificent representative of The Savoy's butlers who offered the services of the team along with a comprehensive orientation of the suite. While I did not have cause to make use of the services of the butlers I have no doubt that if I had made any reasonable request that this would have been fulfilled with a minimum of fuss and no inconvenience to me personally. | The Savoy can be a place which if like me you are not accustomed to that level of luxury could potentially be daunting, but take it from me personally every effort is made to ensure any such feelings are removed. When I say charming it is an understatement, there was no point during my stay where I walked past any employee without an acknowledgement. It is obvious that I am not \"regular\" Savoy clientele but there was no hint of suggestion that staff considered me to be beneath them nor any suggestion that I did not belong, which is something that can occur in more ordinary hotels. I may not be a member of high society or be particularly capable of passing as such, but the staff at The Savoy genuinely made me feel as if I belonged there which is most welcoming. | I say this, if you ever have the occasion to experience The Savoy in person it is something I would recommend in a heartbeat as reading the words of others cannot truly convey the feeling of being \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdin residence\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd at The Savoy.

The large mirrors and traditional 20s theme is so welcoming. The doormen and staff to welcome us were warm and friendly. We had made a reservation at Kaspars but decided to go to the American bar for some champagne first. I absolutely loved the pictures of famous guests on the wall and the memorabilia room to the left.

The staff were lovely though and made sure that they found us a table so we could enjoy the experience. I'm so glad that they did! The food was delicious. I even tried snails for the first time. The fish selection was a good choice as I got to sample four different flavours all equally as good as each other. Our waitress went above and beyond to make us feel at home and helped us decide on the best dish to have. The wine was also very high quality and I never had an empty glass. I had the chocolate fondant for dessert and believe me when I say it's a chocolate lovers heaven. | We still had forty minutes to spare so decided to move into the main area for some tea following our dinner. Their was a huge variety of teas and the dragon well green tea that I selected was perfect. We had decided against cakes as we had just eaten and I was even too full to enjoy the biscuits that accompanied the tea. We had a lovely little sofa with a fantastic view of the hall. The flower arrangement in the middle was spectacular. The decor is grand but not overstated. The orchids in the lobby area were just stunning. Even the staff in the toilet and cloakroom were lovely and very helpful. | The evening entertainment was a burlesque and cabaret show hosted by Miss Polly Rae. The acts were fantastic and they also had a frankie Valli and the Four Seasobs tribute who were spot on. | The Beaufort bar is an intimate setting and we had a table right at the front of the stage. The decor was gold and black which just felt so indulgent and classy. Even the bar itself was pretty spectacular. Extremely grand with every drink you can possibly imagine. We had an impressionist cocktail which came with a red rose and dry ice to mimic the London fog. Even the rose looked so perfect I had to check it was real!

The member if staff was trying to explain that the usual route was closed off as Burlesque is not quite for everyone and that the other entrance was more private.

The bathrooms were modern, with upscale fixtures. The executive was larger and more luxurious. Both rooms were air conditioned adequately (remember this is Europe, a\/c is rarely like the states). The hotel staff was polite and helpful. Service was consistent with a three-star hotel. A malfunctioning a\/c was fixed while we were out one day. A broken door lock proved a little more of a challenge, but was eventually resolved. The desk staff were happy to be able to accomodate our early check-in request. In answer to those reviewers who complained about small shabby rooms, we noticed that there is rennovation going on in the hotel, so I would reccommend requesting a recently updated room.

The hotel was located across the street from the Victoria and Albert Museum, which is next to the Natural History Museum. Harrods is just a four block walk down the street. There are loads of shops, restaurants, and small markets nearby. The South Kensington tube stop was a few minutes' walk from the hotel, and the Green Line service (to Windsor) was about a 10 minute walk. | We were greeted at the door, promptly and courteously checked in, and offered help with our bags. The room was very clean, with an in-room safe and small terrace. They are refurbishing all of the rooms, and will be adding air conditioning. This is definitely to their advantage, since our room faced the very busy street and is very loud with the windows open. The room was a bit warm, but we couldn't keep the windows open for any length of time due to the street noise. The bathroom was clean, but the toilet took several attempts each time to flush it. The shower had just one very flimsy curtain, so that it clung to me during my shower. Hopefully they'll replace this with a glass partition during the refurbishment. | The complimentary continental breakfast was adequate - a selection of cereals, breads, fruit, juices, ham, cheese, yogurt, and hard boiled eggs.

Wir reisten als 4-k\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdpfige Familie. Gebucht waren ein Savoy Queen-Zimmer und ein Savoy Twin-Zimmer mit Verbindungst\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdr. | Zum ersten Mal f\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdhle ich mich dazu verpflichtet, obwohl ich sehr viel in der Luxushotellerie Reise, entsprechend zu schreiben, was f\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdr eine Entt\u00ef\u00bf\u00bduschung dieses Hotel ist. | Der Portier am Seiteneingang l\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdsst die G\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdste mit allen Koffern und einer ungenauen Wegbeschreibung zum Empfang, statt jemanden herzurufen der den Gast begleiten kann. | Die Empfangshalle ist sehr sch\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdn eingerichtet und das Konzept, den Gast vor der eigentlichen Rezeption in Empfang zu nehmen ist sympathisch. Jedoch sollte dabei darauf geachtet werden, dass der Empfangsmitarbeiter geschult wird, englischsprechende Europ\u00ef\u00bf\u00bder zu verstehen. Die Reservierung f\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdr das 2. Zimmer wurde nicht sofort gefunden. Der Mitarbeiter wollte erst das 1. Zimmer einchecken, um dann zu pr\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdfen, was mit dem 2. Zimmer sei. Nachdem vehement mehrmals nachgefragt wurde, dieses bitte zu suchen, wurde dies getan und dann auch gefunden. Das Twin-Zimmer wurde jedoch nicht ber\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdcksichtigt, es war auch ein Queen-Zimmer Unsere Zimmer waren angemessen, aber nicht herausragend, wie es eigentlich von einem solchen Hotel erwartet wird. | Nachdem der Check-In in den Zimmern absolviert worden ist, bat ich den Empfangsmitarbeiter um folgende drei Leistungen: 1. einen Tisch f\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdr 20H30 im River Restaurant zu reservieren, 2. dem Concierge mitzuteilen, dass er dem f\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdr 15H00 (gebuchten) Chauffeurservice bescheid geben soll, dass die Abfahrt sich auf 15H30 verschiebt, 3. f\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdr 18H30 soll bitte eine Torte mit dem Schriftzug \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdHappy Birthday\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd ins Zimmer geliefert werden (also in unserer Abwesenheit). | Leider hat auch hier die Kommunikation nicht funktioniert. Um 15H15 kam ein Anruf vom Concierge Service auf mein Zimmer, dass der Wagen schon auf uns wartete. Als wir zur\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdck in das Zimmer kamen, warteten ein paar Kekse mit einem Happy Birthday auf einem Teller \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd nicht das, was ich bestellt hatte. Ich rief dann um sicherzugehen beim Concierge an, um mir die Reservierung im Restaurant best\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdtigen zu lassen. Der Concierge Service wollte sich darum k\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdmmern und mich zur\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdckrufen. Dies geschah auch in 5 Minuten mit einer Best\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdtigung einer Mitarbeiterin des Restaurants selbst, dass ein sch\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdner Tisch reserviert sei und dass die Information weitergegeben worden ist, dass mein Sohn Geburtstag hat. | Als wir uns um 20H30 am Empfang vom River anmeldeten wurde uns von der Empfangsmitarbeiterin mitgeteilt, dass keine Reservierung vorlag. Wir sollten bitte in der Bar\/Lobby warten, bis vielleicht etwas frei wird. Als ich Sie darauf ansprach, ob sie wegen der Reservierung mit dem Concierge Service sprechen k\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdnnte, teilte Sie mir herablassend mit, dass nur Sie die Reservierungen f\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdr das Restaurant macht. Nachdem ich mich 15 Minuten intensiv mit Ihr auseinandergesetzt habe, war es pl\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdtzlich doch m\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdglich, einen Tisch zu bekommen. Grunds\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdtzlich stelle ich keine gro\u00ef\u00bf\u00bden Erwartungen an die englische K\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdche, jedoch hat das River Restaurant es geschafft, mich zu entt\u00ef\u00bf\u00bduschen: Wir wurden anscheinend von jedem Mitarbeiter im Restaurant einmal bedient, die Bestellung wurde falsch aufgenommen (wenn das Fleisch well done bestellt wird, sollte es nicht rare sein, f\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdr alle vier Bestellungen).

Die Mitarbeiter sind mit Standardsituationen schon \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdberfordert, ganz zu schweigen von den gehobenen Anspr\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdchen, die an ein Luxushotel gestellt werden. | In den Luxushotels der Welt ist es nicht die Einrichtung, die den Ausschlag gibt, ob ein Hotel an die Spitze geh\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdrt, sondern die Mitarbeiter und der Service machen den Aufenthalt unvergesslich. In diesem Fall ist das Urteil f\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdr The Savoy schlichtweg negativ. | Dies ist mit Abstand das schlechteste 5* Luxus Hotel in dem ich in den letzten 24 Monaten \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdbernachtet habe. | Daher ist dies keine Empfehlung f\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdr andere Reisende.", "Location Of The Reviewer": "Dusseldorf, Germany", "Date Of Review": "12\/6\/2012" }, { "Property_Name": "Ridgemount Hotel", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "My hug from home!", "Review Text": "What a lovely little B and B!

Stanford Arms is a good pub near the Gloucester station and they serve breakfast until 1pm on the weekend :) My favorite, and a recommendation from Neal, was The Abingdon. It's about a 10 minute walk from the Xenia and was amazing!! The food and service was top notch. It's pricey but absolutely worth it for a nice dinner. | Public Transport: | Earls Court and Gloucester stations are about 5-10 minute walks from Xenia. Between those two stations you can get anywhere in London rather easy. The tube is clean and easy to use. I learned the system pretty quickly. Much easier than the New York subway system and, aside from walking, the best means of transport in London. | Local Sightseeing: | Kensington Gardens\/Palace, National History Museum and Victoria & Albert Museum are all very close. Harrod's is a good walk for a nice afternoon. | Overall, my stay was wonderful.

The bathroom especially was very spacious with a very good shower and standalone tub. | Beds are large and comfortable, and entertainment-wise you'll also have little to complain since there are two large tv's, an iPod-dock, bluray-player and home cinema sound system. How anyone could really use the huge subwoofer in a hotel room is beyond me, but ok. The WiFi has an annoying login system but is quite fast (10 Mbps) and, more importantly, free. | There are some clever touches that we really appreciated: most hotels charge you upwards of 20 pounds per person for the simplest of breakfasts - which always is way to much, but at the Apex you can pick whatever you want from a menu to create your own selection. Most items are only 1.50 to 3 pounds, so you can have a nice breakfast delivered to your room for about 6 to 8 pound per person, which in my view is good value. We also had dinner in the Off the Wall restaurant twice (we travelled with friends with a small child), which was not bad but also not very inspiring. They do make a nice cocktail though. | Staff is friendly but could improve on some small issues to make them really stand out. | For example, allthough we ordered room service breakfast every day the order form was never renewed, so each night we had to call the reception to get a new one. You would think that after one time the staff would remember. The turndown-service was equally inconsistent: the first night we got it, the second night we didn't, the third night it was offered but we declined, and the last night it was again not offered. This is the sort of attention to detail and consistency that can make a hotel truely stand out and doesn't need to be reserved for 5*-hotels only. | The location is right in the middle of the business district, in a quiet street just off Moorgate. Perfect if you want to sleep soundly because there is no traffic noise but this also means - and you really have to realize this - that _everything_ is closed during weekends. If you walk to Liverpool Street Station some restaurants will be open but if you want to have some choice during the weekend you'll have to travel. Luckily, with Moorgate and Bank underground stations around the corner and Liverpool Street Station a little farther away this is very easy. A taxi to Soho will set you back about 12-16 pounds. | In contrast, during business hours you'll be almost spoiled for choice since there are a lot of restaurants, coffee shops and stores open. | We paid about 190 pounds per night (excluding breakfast) for a junior suite and this felt like very good value compared to other hotels in London with similar sized rooms.

Room was beautiful and spotless, even if slightly old fashioned for my personal taste. I asked the staff where the residents bar was and was pointed to the American bar. I tried twice to go for a drink in my hotel bar, but failed both times due to huge lines (15 to 20 minutes wait) of non-residents waiting to go in for a drink. In my opinion this is ridiculous.

But before we review the reason for this poor rating, we should note a few of the excellent points at the property. | The location is fantastic, across from Hyde Park and just next to a tube station. It would be hard to find a better location. | Prior to the incidents upon arrival which I will describe in detail shortly, we were scheduled for an upgrade from a JR one bedroom park view suite to a full one bedroom suite. The Suite itself was stunning with the finest in decor. Even if it was \"overdecorated\" to the point of being impractical, it was visually stunning. | Because of our numerous issues, we met a management employee named Andre who was genuine and sincere in his desire to turn things around for us. When he was directly involved, the experience could not have been better. But when he wasn't involved.... | Now, unfortunately, I need to advise my fellow travelers on some issues: | First, we relied on the reviews of others on this site who said when they traveled to this hotel the cigar smoke was contained. It is not. It permeates the first floor - rendering its facilities useless. It permeates the elevators and the hallways. It did not enter the room in any recognizable way, thankfully. To some this will be good news to have a property which welcomes cigar smoke. But for us, it was a serious issue. Therefore, if you do not like smoke, then I would not book this hotel under any circumstance. | Second, our arrival could not have been more problematic. It was the worst arrival at a luxury hotel we have ever experienced. When delivering us to check in, our driver was yelled at by the valet in a rude way, scaring him and startling us. The agent who checked us in told us we had not paid when we had paid in full 6 weeks earlier. The room was not ready and we were told we could sit in the bar. When we explained our sensitivity to smoke, the agent then told us there was no smoke. We then went to the Dorchester for tea and never received the call or text saying our room was ready. Finally, after our travel agent called, they explained it was their fault, that I had paid, and then told her we were getting an upgrade when in fact we had received the upgrade long before since that was the reason we were given that the room was not ready. | Throughout the stay, there were numerous issues: | No bedsheet on the bed one evening; | 31 minutes to receive ice water for breakfast; | laundry cleaned but then taken out of plastic to then be placed in dirty drawers, rendering them unclean again; | I could go on and on. | Upon check out, I was stunned to see I had been charged 6.99 (!) per day for a NYT and 4.00 per day for a WSJ - both of which I had on my iPad. | I asked for an adjustment of the bill and received 54.00 off a several thousand dollar bill after all the issues we encountered. We were shocked, disappointed, and insulted that the hotel management apologized for sub standard service (both in writing and verbally) and then offered us compensation of 54.00 after several days of our vacation were ruined. | When in a foreign country where you stay really matters. Moreover, when you pay large sums of money for a luxury hotel, one should expect to receive the service you pay for. This hotel has its good points, but given the issues which were so obvious in most every department from the time we arrived to the time we left, I would not stay here again and suggest you think carefully before you do as well.", "Location Of The Reviewer": "Louisville, Kentucky", "Date Of Review": "10\/9\/2016" }, { "Property_Name": "Mondrian London at Sea Containers", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "Delicious Food", "Review Text": "The ideal venue for a celebratory lunch with friends.

That combined with the rooms which if you like chintz you love it here. But chintz in a 1980s Laura Ashley way. It didn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt feel elegant or bygone era, simply old really like visiting an elderly relatives house. | I ordered room service, which took slightly longer than they said it would, I wasn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt that fussed but hey its 5 star I expect it within 30mins if they tell me that\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds what it will be. That wasn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt the worst part though. I felt the food wasn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt particularly good.

If felt like I was eating breakfast in a well decorated conference all, it had that lack of ambience. I think it hit home particularly as it was 7.30am. Frankly I felt it quite depressing room for breakfast it just didn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt feel right at all. Perhaps it would be ok in the evening but I\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdm not convinced. However it\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds certainly not a good place to have breakfast, the waiter served my food, which he promptly got wrong. I didn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt complain, as I didn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt see the point. I had scrambled eggs and smoked salmon both which tasted again bland but given the lighting speed it arrived after I ordered it I don\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt believe they made the eggs to order and that also came across in the presentation.

The bathroom was particularly impressive, all Savoy green and white marble. While unpacking I noticed a problem with the door to our room: it rattled when the air pressure in the corridor changed. I reported this problem to reception and asked for it to be addressed before our return. Shortly after we returned to our room in the afternoon our doorbell (!) rang. It was the manager, Patrick. He was very apologetic and asked ultimately if we would be willing to move to a beautiful suite, which we later discovered cost double the price of our room. Friends, good customer service is alive and well at The Savoy. It was also shrewd business on the part of Patrick, as we have become evangelists for The Savoy. Over the next four days we went on to enjoy breakfast at The Savoy, lunch at Simpsons in the Strand (the most amazing beef I have ever tasted), afternoon tea, and cocktails in the American Bar.

Typically most hotels will not allow a check in until later in the afternoon. To our surprise, our junior suite was ready the moment we walked into the hotel lobby. After a long flight such as ours, there is nothing better than having the room ready for a quick recovery nap before hitting the sites. | As for the room - there was a separate sitting area with ample seating, a desk, flat screen TV, mini bar and fridge. The bedroom itself was quite spacious giving us plenty of room for our suitcases and other belongings. The gargantuan flat screen TV came equipped with all the cable channels one could want. We even had a gorgeous balcony overlooking the courtyard. What truly set this room over the top was the bathroom. The Corinithia pays meticulous attention to detail as evidenced by the heated floor, dual head (one of which being a rain head) over-sized shower, spa like soaking tub, the largest TV I've seen in a bathroom, and exquisite marble flooring and counter tops. Also it should be noted that the interior designers who assembled the furniture, picked out the colors, designed the layout should be commended; it was tasteful, functional and everything we enjoy in a five star hotel (is it possible to give the Corinithia 6 stars?). | Another nice detail was the housekeeping service. When leaving our room we turned the \"make up room\" switch on and presumably the staff is notified electronically that we are leaving and would like service. Every time we left the room and came back they always had the room cleaned and ready for us. Their turn down presentation was also a treat, we definitely enjoyed seeing what surprises awaited us each evening! | Regarding the service, specifically the concierge: Months up until to arrival I had the pleasure of working with Max and his team. Not once did they fall through on a request or question I asked them. While their service was stellar via e-mails prior to our arrival, their in person service transcended any of our expectations. They knew us by name, knew our itinerary almost better than we did, consistently inquired how each meal\/tour was and insisted they do everything possible to ensure our holiday was one to remember. One example of how they achieved such a feat was a brief conversation we had with them regarding one of our meals at Locanda Locatelli where the service at the restaurant was anything but praiseworthy. When we mentioned our disappointment to one of the concierge team members (I wish I remembered his name but it escapes me), the look on his face (and the two others who were happening to listen in) was that of being mortified. They were so upset we didn't have a fantastic meal and informed us they would be phoning the restaurant to speak with management and figure out why were were mistreated. We told them, it wasn't a huge deal and it didn't ruin our night, we just wanted to let them know it wasn't a place we'd return. But again, they insisted they follow up with the restaurant. Max's team went out of their way time and time again and instances like these illustrate their consummate professionalism. Many many kudos to the concierge team! | As for the rest of the hotel - The common spaces, bars, restaurant and gym were all immaculate and well maintained. We were too busy to take advantage of the spa but we did manage one quick work out session in the gym which had state of the art machines and had everything one needs when trying to get an excellent workout in on vacation. | In sum, I can't thank Corinithia enough for making our London holiday truly magical. We simply have one request, perhaps they could open a Corinthia hotel in America somewhere?", "Location Of The Reviewer": "Reston, Virginia", "Date Of Review": "1\/22\/2014" }, { "Property_Name": "The Rembrandt", "Review Rating": 4, "Review Title": "Great weekend in London at the Rembrandt - excellent location", "Review Text": "We spent 2 nights at the Rembrandt after booking through British Airways.

Although our room wasnt ready when we arrived, the cases were kept safe and were placed in our room for when we returned. We were given a guided tour of the hotel and taken to our room personally by the polite lady who checked us in, and the bedroom was truly stunning.

But having spent three sleepless nights at the Ridgemount, I would recommend other holiday travelers go ahead and shell out another \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd50 for better lodgings where you might actually get a decent night's rest. After all, if you're spending several thousand dollars for your holiday, what's the sense of saving a few pounds to spend your days stumbling around London with every bone and muscle aching and your brain in a sleep-deprived haze? | If you insist on ignoring this advice to save a few pennies by staying at the Ridgemount (note well, I did not write \"sleeping\" at the Ridgemount), do not--under any circumstances--allow yourself to be placed in a room that faces the street. For three nights, we were mercilessly tortured in Room 19, a ground floor en suite twin room with a window just a few feet from roaring traffic, traffic that hardly lets up until the hour or so just before dawn. (Our industrial-strenght earplugs were inadequate to dampen the noise. We would have asked to be moved, but the hotel was fully booked.) | A night at the Ridgemount on the narrow, short, and extremely hard beds with mopeds zooming past (at what seems like) inches from your head approximates the experience of sleeping on a London sidewalk, except that one must acknowledge the Ridgemount was, to its credit, much cleaner than the sidewalk, scrupulously clean, in fact. | Cleanliness and neighborhood location, though they do count for much, are the Ridgemount\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds only unequivocally positive qualities. The facility itself lacks any suggestion of charm or grace, and the furnishings are uniformly old, cheap, worn, dowdy, crowded, uncomfortable--and very, very clean. | As for the breakfast, it was, by American standards and more so by London standards, unimpressive: Frosted corn flake cereal (which I don't particularly care for), coffee, orange juice, one egg cooked sunny-side up, two slices of ham\/bacon, white bread toast, rather good marmelade jam, and a lifeless vegetable. The only variation in the breakfast offering was the vegetable: half a grilled tomato the first day, canned beans the other days. The breakfast waitstaff, most of whom appeared to be eastern European immigrant girls in their late-teens and early twenties, were charmingly shy, prompt, quiet, and unobtrusive. Indeed, our brief interactions with these young ladies were by far the most endearing aspect of our Ridgemount experience. | The hotel desk staff were--for the most part--civil and responsive to our few inquiries, and the young man working mornings at the desk gave us accurate and helpful information about bus routes. However, a different young man at the desk the evening of the last night of our stay could not conceal his irritation when, as I explained that we had an early flight to Rome the next day and would be pressed for time, I asked to settle our bill that night rather than waiting until the morning. He kept telling me I could do it in the morning. I kept explaining that we would be rushed in the morning, and would like to settle the bill now. He relented only when I stated flatly that I would pay the bill now and handed him my credit card. | I almost forgot to mention that, in response to my initial email inquiry for a twin room en suite, I was quoted a rate of \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd52 per night. But after I sent my credit card information to finalize the booking, the email confirming my booking for the requested accommodations quoted a higher rate of \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd68 per night. Upon checking the information posted on the Ridgemont\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds web site, I was able to see that the hotel had erred by initially quoting me the rate for a room without a bathroom, even though I had asked for a room with a private bath, so I did not complain about what seemed to be an honest mistake. However, at checkout I did not at all appreciate the surly hotel desk clerk's unsolicited and falsely hospitable offer to denominate the charge on my credit card in US dollars rather than British pounds. This sly trick, which inexperienced travelers fall for all the time, is known as \"dynamic currency conversion\" and creates a windfall profit for the merchant while substantially increasing the cost of the transaction for the customer, who will receive a highly unfavorable exchange rate from the merchant yet still pay whatever (and sometimes double) the \"foreign transaction fee\" that the credit card issuer normally adds to charges made in foreign countries. In my opinion, any hotel or merchant that presents the \"dynamic currency conversion\" option, without explaining its unfavorable consequences to the customer, does not care about the customer\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds best interests.", "Location Of The Reviewer": "Houston, Texas", "Date Of Review": "9\/23\/2006" }, { "Property_Name": "The Savoy", "Review Rating": 3, "Review Title": "Good but not all that", "Review Text": "We are a not experienced travellers and given the reputation of The Savoy we were a little surprised with Bath Robes that were like sandpaper a mini bar that you would need a mortgage to drink from, luggage that went missing for an hour, being charged for 3 glasses of wine with dinner when we only had 2.

The hotel looks beautiful following an extensive renovation, and my room on the seventh floor was impeccably appointed and very comfortable. That said, there were numerous problems with my stay, in particular the performance of \"The Reception Team\" (the hotel's term) and the housekeeping staff. Although some of the problems were minor, others were not---and in the aggregate, there were far too many of them for a first class hotel charging commensurate prices (I paid approx. $650 per night for a deluxe room---not including meals or incidentals). | Day 1. I arrived at the Savoy in the late evening. The member of \"The Reception Team\" who escorted me to my room mentioned that I had a one night reservation. I told her that information was in error and provided her with a copy of the reservation from the US travel agency that handled the (prepaid) booking. The following morning, I received a letter from \"The Reception Team\" stating that the 8 night reservation had been confirmed. | Day 2. The key card for my room didn't work. I went to the lobby to meet with a member of \"The Reception Team,\" explained that I was locked out of my room and had the key reprogrammed. | Day 3. My other key card didn't work---locked out of the room again, so I made another trip to \"The Reception Team.\" While the key was being reprogrammed, I was told that the problem was that the two key cards had not been updated when my reservation was amended, which begs the question---why didn't \"The Reception Team\" realize that the key cards would need to be reprogrammed when my reservation was revised to reflect the correct length of my stay? Their failure to make that connection meant that I was locked out of my room not once but twice. On the same day, I called room service to order a bucket of ice and was told it would be delivered in approximately 10 minutes. The ice was delivered 45 minutes later, after I called room service for the second time (I later learned that the hotel charges for ice--at a cost of 2.25 pounds per order). | Day 4. In the early morning, a copy of the bill for my stay was slipped under my door, along with a letter of inquiry as to how I intended to handle my luggage in connection with checking out of the hotel. So I had to pay another visit to \"The Reception Team\" to remind them that my reservation was for 8 nights---not 1 night, not 3 nights, but 8 nights. I explained to a member of \"The Reception Team\" what had happened since my arrival, expecting that she would take the hint and offer some sort of gesture for the inconvenience caused by the hotel's errors---what I received in return was a series of polite apologies, which by this point was no longer sufficient . I then called the agency in the US that handled the Savoy reservation and asked them to contact the hotel---several minutes later, I received a call from the assistant manager of the Savoy (who had just taken a call from that travel agency). The assistant manager (whose first name was Ryan, and he impressed me as very professional and sincerely apologetic) asked how the hotel could make amends---I received complimentary drinks at one of the bars at the hotel, which I appreciated. Unfortunately, the problems continued. When I returned to my room at 2:30 pm after having been away for more than 7 hours, the room had not yet been cleaned. I called housekeeping and asked that the room be cleaned in the late afternoon (I suggested 4:15 to 4:30), as I wanted to do some work in my room until then without being disturbed---I was told that would be no problem. The maid arrived to clean my room at 3:15, well before the requested time. | Day 5. Housekeeping removed a bottle of hair conditioner from the shower stall and replaced it with a bottle of body lotion. Note to housekeeping: while the bottles of conditioner and lotion may look similar, they are not the same... | Day 6. I returned to my room at 9:00 pm after a day trip outside of London and noticed that there was no sign of turndown service. As I was tired after a long day, I elected not to call housekeeping to remind them about turndown service. I was awakened at 9:25 pm by a maid who asked if I wanted turndown service. Turndown service at close to 9:30 pm?! | Day 7. Newspaper was not delivered. | Day 8. The one day of my stay in which there were no incidents. | Day 9 (checkout). The previous evening, I had requested a porter to pick up my bags at 6:30 am. As I had made that request in person with a member of \"The Reception Team\" while settling my bill, it was clear as to which room was the subject of my request. On the day of my checkout, the porter did not arrive at the designated time. At 6:35 am, I called the concierge --- after 6 rings without an answer, I hung up and took my bags to the lobby. In the lobby, I encountered a member of \"The Reception Team\" and advised that the porter never arrived for my bags---as it turned out, the porter had been instructed to go to a different room on the same floor (room 712 instead of room 723)---another mistake by \"The Reception Team.\" I hope the guest in room 712 was not too offended by the unexpected wake-up call. | Long story short: a beautiful hotel, but at these prices it's reasonable to expect quality service from the staff---an expectation that was decisively not met.", "Location Of The Reviewer": "New York, NY", "Date Of Review": "1\/19\/2011" }, { "Property_Name": "Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park, London", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "A perfect spot in Hyde Park", "Review Text": "I travel to London twice a year for business and stay at the Mandarin every September.

Trafalgar Square, the London Eye and Big Ben are all close by (walking distance). You can reach this hotel easily by public transport, taxi or car. | When you reach the Corinthia you will notice the beautiful building. It once was the majestic hotel M\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdtropole, which opened in 1885. Later it became the building of the Ministry of Defense. In 2011 the Corinthia hotel in London opened its doors. Today it still is the flagship hotel of the Corinthia hotel group offering the most luxurious accommodations in London and even in the entire United Kingdom. | As we entered the hotel, the lobby was one of the nicest we had ever seen. We were greeted immediately with a smile, always nice! During check-in we were told that we had been upgraded to one of their Junior Suites. A very friendly lady showed us the room and as soon as she opened the door we were very impressed by how unbelievably luxurious and clean those rooms were. It was like this room had never been used before. The Junior Suites at the Corinthia London have an average size of 47 m\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd. They all have a \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdsuper king sized\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd bed, a dressing room, a most comfortable sitting area and a chaise longue. The Italian marble en-suite bathroom features an oversized bath tub with in-built high definition tub TV, a separate tropical rain shower and ESPA products. I actually took the ESPA shampoo home with me, it smells and feels SO nice! Never had such great toiletries. | After inspecting and getting a feel of our gorgeous room, we went on to explore the hotel. Believe me that around every corner there is a new surprise waiting for you. This hotel is well known for its service and details and I can understand why. Every single staff member I saw during my entire stay greeted me with a smile and most even remembered my name, which left me very impresse! As we went back to the lobby, a staff member showed us around the hotel. We went to the Spa area and to be honest, I couldn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt believe my eyes when I entered this dream world\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd In 2013 the ESPA Life at the Corinthia was voted best spa in Europe! It also is the largest spa in London with 4 floors of black marble luxury. There are 2 pools: one steel 9 meter swimming pool and one vitality pool, a large amphitheatre-style sauna and steam room, marble heated relaxing chairs, ice fountain and so on. There are relaxing areas all over the place. You should definitely check out the \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdsleep pods\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd with the central fire place in the changing rooms: these are very quiet and intimate spaces where you can chill out while enjoying relaxing music, fresh fruit and water. The fitness room is well equipped with high class training facilities. There are personal trainers on duty as well. Oh, and don\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt bring your own headphones, they have some right there waiting for you. | The Corinthia London has 2 restaurants: the Northall (British cuisine) and Massimo (Italian cuisine). We had dinner at Massimo. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and truly has this Italian vibe. The food was delicious. I can highly recommend the beef carpaccio, which was the best I\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdve ever had! Service again was top-notch, not snobby and they really make you feel at ease. Very nice! The sommelier is a very kind guy with an outstanding knowledge of wines. | The next morning we were able to try out the other restaurant, the Northall. Again, very classy! Breakfast was of a very high quality and offered a good variety of hot and cold items. There were several options: buffet, \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd la carte or both. We tried both and did not regret it. From the delicious latte macchiato to the freshly made carrot cake\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd I loved every single bite and sip. By the way, the \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdCorinthia\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds hot chocolate\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd is to die for!

With this in mind & having looked at everything on offer, The Rembrandt looked a good option at \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd120 mid-week using a friend's discount & it turned out to be an excellent choice. | The location is perfect. Sure, some may prefer to stay right within the bustle of Piccadily & it's immediate vicinity but you just know room sizes and rates wont make it worthwhile so for somewhere that's just a few tube stops away but has plenty of top-class amenities I think the Rembrandt is superb. It's directly across from the V&A Museum which means its a 2 minute walk to the Natural History & Science Museums, 5 minutes to Harrods & 10 minutes to the Royal Albert Hall & Hyde Park. The second you step out of the lobby you can see 3 of the above-mentioned landmarks depending on whether you look left, straigh-ahead or right. | The public areas are clean, tasteful & classy, nothing huge but perfectly sized to enjoy a quiet drink or meal & the check-in desk was pleasant & adequately staffed. Our rate included Continental Breakfast although several of us took Full English as there didn't seem to be any policy to differentiate between the two, in all honesty I wish I hadn't bothered as it was probably the only negative of our stay - the food was below average, I've had much nicer in Holiday Inn's, Jury's, etc this year in London. The pastries, juices, etc that would be classed as Continental were fine however - should have stuck to what we'd paid for ! | Our party contained six people staying in three rooms and of these one room was compact but modern, comfortable & very well equipped, another of the same style & decor but quite a bit more spacey & one \"older\" room that was easily the best of the three. When asked if the hotel had any more rooms of this style available I was told it was due for refurbishment and classed as a standard room. It's a good sign of any hotel when a room is due for a refurb when it really doesn't need it. It was easily the nicest and largest \"standard\" hotel room I've seen in Central London, in fact far nicer than any of the times I've stayed in upgraded rooms. | All 3 rooms had very new Samsung flat-panel tv's with a full selection of Sky TV channels (including Sports !), superb bathrooms with high-quality fittings & everything else you could ask for. One room had a great view overlooking the V&A Museum whilst the largest room overlooked a scene straight ouf ot \"Mary Poppins or Peter Pan\". Very nice | To summarise, the Rembrandt will be the first place I will look for future stays in London. It goes without saying that the price of a night's stay is paramount to any decision when it come to hotel choice but I'd happily pay approx \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd20\/\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd30 per night more to stay here than many of the other chain hotels nearby.", "Location Of The Reviewer": "Cardiff Wales UK", "Date Of Review": "10\/6\/2007" }, { "Property_Name": "Bulgari Hotel, London", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "What a great place!

When ready we went to the lady who was dealing with seating guests for Afternoon Tea who was very friendly and showed us straight to our seats.

The waiter poured the tea once and then my Mum was left to top up herself for the rest of the afternoon. She only really drank a few cups out of duty as I was paying for the treat rather than because she was enjoying it. | The sandwiches were served and we had a choice of salmon, tuna, cucumber with cream cheese and chicken. My favourites were the tuna and the chicken sandwiches which were served in a greenish basil bread which did look unusual but tasted nice. We polished of two rounds (6 finger sandwiches each) and a chocolate cup with (lightly) coffee flavoured mousse before moving on to scones. | The scones are miniature rather than full size and there were plain ones and fruit ones served with pots of clotted cream, compote and strawberry jam which you can help yourself to. The scones were served warm and were very nice. We would have had seconds but three scones each had left us feeling a bit full! | Next came the cakes, however I must say these were very disappointing. There was a tasteless yellow concoction which was apparently a lychee mousse atop a biscuit, a tasteless green macaroon, a small pear tart thing, a pastry case with fresh fruit and meringue and also a peanut butter mousse on top a biscuit base. We tried each of these cakes and none of them had much flavour at all and so we did not have seconds. | As we had booked for the second to last sitting we were pretty much able to stay as long as we wanted until we asked for the bill. The gentleman who brought it asked if we had enjoyed the tea so we said we had but that the cakes had been a disappointment. He promptly suggested that he could give us some alternative ones in our box to take away to try and see if we liked better for next time. When we opened our box later on at our hotel, the only cakes in there were the same tasteless ones we hadn't liked originally. | Overall our experience at The Dorchester did not fully live up to our expectations. We enjoyed the atmosphere and people watching, with the scones and sandwiches being delicious and the staff being eager to please but the actual tea itself and the cakes were very disappointing.

However, its major attraction is still its location, in one of the best areas of London, with good public transport and within a 5 minute walk to South Kensington Underground Station on a direct line to the airport. It is also close to Harrods and Harvey Nichols stores and there is a wide choice of restaurants nearby. It is directly opposite the V and A and other major museums. You know you are in a posh part of London because the neighbouring streets are parked out with Lamborghinis, Ferraris, Porsches, luxury Mercedes and Beemers, Land Rovers and Mini Coopers, far outnumbering the more humble cars of the hoi polloi. | The hotel entrance is imposing leading to a rather drab and faded foyer. Apart from the odd sunny African, the hotel is almost wholly staffed by East Europeans and Russians, with attitudes to match, from the sullen and unsmiling receptionists to the gulag-grey clad waiters. | The room we were given was at the front of the building, small but comfortable looking, but with insufficient space for two suitcases. There was a large wardrobe but surprisingly and irritatingly for a stay of five days, no drawers at all. The beds had duvets that in a poorly ventilated room were unbearably hot at night, and the windows could only be opened a few inches. The \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdrefurbished\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd bathroom was largish,but poorly laid out. The basin area had no space or shelves for toiletries and the taps that intriguingly gushed hot water from both hot and cold were antique ones dating from the 1960\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds and difficult to operate, particularly in the plug area. | If you like an English breakfast, as I do, this is the place for you. It was excellent with a full and tasty range of eggs, sausages, bacon, mushrooms, grilled tomatoes, potato cakes and the ubiquitous baked beans. If you are a Continental, preferring something more elegant and less substantial, the pickings are meagre indeed and poorly presented - a choice of two or three different sliced meats, with the ham lumped high on a plate, and a choice of two plastic wrapped mini-cheeses. The fruit offerings consisted of two bowls of canned peaches and apricots, and for fresh fruit, there were plates of sliced oranges and water melon that looked like they had been attacked with a machete. The mini-muffins and the light and excellent mini-croissants were piled unattractively on top of each other, and in conformity with the mini theme, there was a choice of just three mini jars of honey, marmalade or jam. | In summary, this was poorly presented cafeteria style and had none of the elegance that could be expected from a four star hotel. This extended to the tables for two, crowded together and on a busy morning within clatter and chatter distance of fellow guests. The laminate topped tables had no tablecloths and the coffee was served in plain white mugs which I loathe. Whatever happened to English bone china cups and saucers? | I have one further gripe. I suspected that my credit card had been debited for the total cost of my stay on checking in, and specifically asked that this not be done as I wished to pay part of the cost on checking out with left-over pounds. In spite of an assurance, this was not done and I was charged upfront \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd something that I have not experienced in other quality hotels. Quite reasonably after a five night stay, I asked for a late check-out at 2 pm as I had an evening flight out to Singapore. The backstage Politburo had decreed that this could only be agreed to subject to a supplementary charge of 20 pounds, and on this issue, the stoney-faced receptionist could not be moved. | I can only suggest that management take a trip to Europe, the US and Asia, to learn how hotels operate there and what service, warmth and presentation mean, but I fear that this in not on the agenda of this hotel group which seems mainly interested in cutting to the bone and making as much profit as possible. | Maybe I\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdm spoiled, maybe it\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds London, but as far as I\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdm concerned, this hotel does not tick all the boxes in spite of its favourable location.", "Location Of The Reviewer": "Sydney", "Date Of Review": "6\/29\/2013" }, { "Property_Name": "Hotel Xenia, Autograph Collection", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "Wonderful hotel in great location.", "Review Text": "Hotel Xenia is situated just a short walk to Gloucester tube station which gives easy access to all the London sites!

We were personally shown to our room and had all the features of both the hotel and (amazing) Espa Spa explained. Adorable plush animals and small bags of fun candies were waiting for our children, along with fresh fruit and juices for us. Every request was attended to within minutes. The bathroom was exceptional with heated marble floors and a jacuzzi tub with television (our kids loved taking their bath with cartoons on!). Very comfortable beds!

Pillows, fabric headboards, and even the toilet paper were drowning in fragrance. We had requested a hypoallergenic room due to severe allergies and asthma, which was not in their records apparently. While they did change the linens and towels, these items had to be special-ordered in so there was a wait, and there was no getting completely rid of the scent since it so heavily lingered in everything in the room. Both my daughter and I had asthma and allergy complications due to the fragrance. We would have loved a truly hypoallergenic room that fragrance had never been used in. | 2) The lighting system in the room is tricky to get the hang of. Also, the boxes for the lighting glow very bright blue at night which we found mildly disruptive. | The Corinthia fully deserves it's 5-star rating (those without fragrance sensitivities and allergies would likely find this place perfect)!", "Location Of The Reviewer": "New York", "Date Of Review": "7\/10\/2015" }, { "Property_Name": "Mondrian London at Sea Containers", "Review Rating": 4, "Review Title": "Amazing views!", "Review Text": "Amazing location with stunning views out over the city.

A friend recommended I stay in either Knightsbridge or Kensington and after doing research on the neighborhoods, I choose Kensington. Balancing guest reviews against room sizes and prices (especially since it was High Season), I chose the Hotel Xenia. My room rate was 200 GBP per night for a Deluxe Room. | Flying in from the United States I arrived at the hotel at 8:30 a.m. To my pleasant surprise the room was available for check-in. The front desk staff was pleasant and efficient. Since I slept on the airplane all I needed was a shower and I was ready to explore the neighborhood. The Hotel Xenia is on Cromwell Road, a major thoroughfare, and is evenly spaced between two Tube stops, one at Earl's Court and the other at Gloucester Road. You can get anywhere in London on the Tube from these two stations. | When I went up to my room it felt warm but that was because the air conditioner does not work until a guest checks in and places a white plastic card in a slot near the door. The activates the lights and air conditioning. My room was very small by American hotel standards, even though it was a Deluxe room. But I was traveling solo; I knew the room size from the Xenai's web site; and it was fine. | The room was very well appointed, with comfortable bedding, a desk with chair, a small couch, and a bathroom with toilet and shower\/tub. Lighting in the bathroom was adequate for showering and morning ablutions but insufficient for shaving - there was only one small spotlight above the sink which created deep shadows and made it difficult to see. A two-bulb fixture above the mirror would have been better. | The two concierges I spoke with almost daily at the Hotel Xenia are top-notch; unfortunately; I've forgotten their names. One is a native Englishman and the other is Polish. Both gentlemen are very knowledgeable about the neighborhood, nearby restaurants and pubs, attractions, and the like. The Xenia is a 15-minute walk from world class museums - London Science Museum; Victor & Albert; and the Natural History Museum. The museums are free, which given the disparity between the British Pound and the U.S. Dollar was very welcome! | The Xenia is next door to a large Sainsbury; which is similar to a Super Target in the United States. It had a Starbucks which is where I ate my breakfasts. I did not eat in the Hotel Xenia, since I wanted to eat in pubs and local restaurants, so I cannot comment on the hotel restaurant or bars. | The concierge recommended several places to eat near the Earl's Court Tube stop. I ate at an Indian restaurant on Hogarth Road and it was very good. He also recommend a bistro less than a 10-minute walk away in a neighborhood a bit off Cromwell Road so there were few tourists there. The food was excellent. | I came back to my room in the afternoon and took a nap. The room felt warm so I lowered the temperature on the thermostat. I went back out for more sightseeing then dinner, then came back to the hotel. The room was warm but I managed to sleep. | The next day, 31 July, I visited the London Transport Museum and when I came back to my room in the afternoon, it was very warm. I called down to the front desk and a few minutes later an engineer came up and pointed an electronic thermometer at the air vent near the ceiling, which read 74 degrees. I told him I wasn't sleeping on the ceiling but down here so would he please do what he can to make the room cooler. He looked doubtful but said he would try, then left my room. | The next morning I spent the day at the Science Museum and when I came back to my room in the afternoon it was again uncomfortably warm. This time I went down to the front desk and inquired about moving me to a different Deluxe room. The front desk clerk apologized, found me another room, and had a bellhop move my bag and clothes. This room was a bit larger then my first room but more importantly, the air conditioning worked very well. | The next few days were spent visiting other museums outside London (York, Crewe, and Didcot). My second to last day when I woke up in the morning my ankle itched and I saw what looked like a flea bite. I assumed I was bitten by something in the countryside. But that evening while settling in to check e-mail I found a flea on the desk. I crushed it but a little later found another flea. | When I checked out of the hotel the next morning I mentioned the fleas. The front desk clerk was very apologetic and offered me a discount on a bottle of wine on my next stay. Frankly, I found this a little insulting. I have no idea when I'll be back and a discounted bottle of wine on my next stay does nothing for the flea bites I incurred on this stay. It's not the end of the world but I felt a credit towards my bill would have been more appropriate, especially since I needed to change rooms because of an unresolved mechanical issue in my first room. | In sum I found the hotel very comfortable albeit expensive; centrally located; and the staff to be first rate.

We were prepared to all be sharing the same room and same bathroom as advertised. Received a phone call the day before we were due to travel, saying that we were being split across three rooms (It sounded like three rooms, one double, one twin, and possibly another twin for the last friend of ours. Difficult to understand over phone.) This seemed ok as I assumed we were still reasonably together and in a hotel, and that each room would have its own bathroom. So I agreed on the phone and left it at that. | Upon turning up, we were taken out of the main hotel building (which from what we saw didn't look too bad) and next door into a block of flats. Each flat seemed to be split into around four rooms, with a shared bathroom. We ended up with one twin room, two single rooms, and another single in another part of the building! It also turned out that our next door room-neighbor was a staff member who lived there? It felt like we were staying at a strangers house! So my partner and I were sharing a bathroom with two of our friends, a staff member of the hotel, and the random guests he seemed to have himself?!? | The decor was tidy but shabby. Bathroom well-used. Each bed had one clean towel supplied which was fresh each day. The TV in our room worked fine (one set of batteries for two remotes was fun though) and we had freeview. Our friends rooms had either no freeview or a TV that didn't work at all. Tea and coffee facilities supplied, had to plug kettle in and leave on the floor to boil. Beds varying degrees of lumpiness, didn't dare investigate beneath sheets but first inspection was clean.

We were not granted early check-in even though I'm a President's Club member of Fairmont, so we had to go from an 8 hour flight to the hotel and then wait 6 hours for a room. The 2nd person that checked us in offered us a free room upgrade when we informed her of our anniversary! So, we went to the room and it was a 2 bedroom suite. It was fine, but nothing great at all, just seemed old. The bathroom had a tub\/shower...and a rubber bathmat that slipped ever time you try to get in the tub. I fell 3 times getting into the tub. The bathroom is very, very old, not luxurious at all. The price for the room that we stayed in was approximately 450 pounds and if I had to pay that amount I would have been embarassed and mad because the room and hotel were just not resort-like or anywhere near a luxury hotel. I'm still kicking myself for not checking out of the hotel and moving elsewhere. The restaurants there were ok, very empty and very pretentious waitstaff. One drink in the bar will cost you $25.

After worrying about how we were going to plan our day around a plumber, we finally called and asked if we could be moved and they coplied which relieved us but we still had to pack up and plan around the move the next day. The second room was bigger, but really just acceptable by american standards.

The bathroom was also much the same size. | Breakfast was good, although the tables are only about 3 inches apart so having a private conversation is not good. | My main issue was the leisure facilities which you actually have to pay for on a daily basis which I found a bit cheeky as it is about \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd6 a time and during the weekend we were there the pool was used as swimming lessons for local kids and there parents sat round the pool and Jacuzzi all the time which gave us no privacy.

As reported in another review the website does not state that the sauna\/steam is not mixed which spoiled it for us as were looking to relax together.

They could have a lot more loungers but choose to put the family changing rooms up above the pool which takes up a lot of space, and to be honest the families do not use them as I had a father with his daughter and son in my changing room which was very embarrassing as I needed to get undressed.

The deluxe room is a regular sized hotel room, with modernistic artfully designed furniture, so the whole effect, plus the river view is fantastic.

Restaurant: ate dinner there the first night; no more. Ordered the beef plate which was huge, enough for 4 people, but it took 45 minutes and was charred so that I had to spit the charred pieces out, inedible. The accompanying side dishes tasted good, but the mushrooms had many bits of sand or grains or hard dirt. Very unenjoyable restaurant experience overall.

I was in London 5 years ago and walked this same area that was then only the drab, half occupied Sea Containers building.

We had a table for two close to the piano and as its December all the xmas trees were decorated tastefully and the staff were very smart in their suits.

Our second course consisted of a tray full of various fruit\/cream\/chocolate patisserie and you could have as many as you wanted and they kept coming back to ask if you wanted more. Then the 3rd course was a cake trolley full of xmas cake, apple and cinamon cake, chocolate log etc. I asked at this point how long we had our table for as a couple of hours had now passed and we were told we could sit and eat all afternoon if we wanted until 6:30pm.

The bigger issue was with the plumbing, we had a bit of a flooding problem from the shower and there was quite a bad odour coming from the shower drain which was there constantly. We reported it to reception who said that they would arrange to have it looked at, which they did during the afternoon when we were out. Unfortunately, the odour persisted and while it wasn't a deal breaker, it wasn't great for a 5 star hotel.

When we got into what was a very modern, contemporary but beautiful reception we were told the Hotel had given us a free upgrade to a Superier patio room as a treat for my birthday. This patio room, has a little private patio, with table and chairs and ashtray for the smokers. If you are a smoker you know what I mean when I say this is a total joy to get in a hotel anywhere in the world! To say we were chuffed would be an understatement. This hotel is only a year or so old, it sits directly on the south bank, right next to the OXO tower and the ITV studios, in the middle of all the action you could want. The rooms are modern but have all amenities you could possibly want. I have to mention the wifi, for us country bumpkins sometimes only getting -1 on our broadband, we were wetting ourselves with getting nearly 50 at the hotel, oh you lucky pips in London! | Anyway onto the room again, there wasn't anything we would wish for any more than this hotel, its situation is perfect, right in walking distance for all attractions. We walked to see the poppies which were amazing, and once we had finished walking we realised we did 18 miles in one day. Totally enjoyed it. | We did try to get into the dungeons however a tip for anyone looking to go, book in advance, we couldn't get in as it was fully booked for the day, it was disappointing.

(2) The hotel feels safe, because you use the room key card to operate the elevators, because the tall windows in the front rooms have double-paned doors over them, and because there's [also] a chain lock on the door to the room. (3) The breakfast room is enormous; the breakfast buffet huge, clean and well maintained. Pick up a free newspaper in the lounge, then take your choice of cereals, fruits, cheeses, cold cuts, porridge, eggs (fried, scrambled, hard boiled), sausages, bacon, broiled tomatoes, beans, light yogurt (try the cranberry\/raspberry!), breads\/rolls\/baguettes\/pastries\/muffins, juices, water, coffee, tea, hot chocolate, etc. (4) The Samsung TV in the room has high definition channels in several languages including English, Arabic, Italian and French, and there's even music available on the set. (5) The water pressure in the bathroom is amazing; the hot water is so hot that one can sanitize a toothbrush. | The hotel's location is perfect for the Underground, neighborhood walks and the hop on hop off tour bus: (1) It's a short walk to the South Kensington Tube station, which is a stop on the train from Heathrow. Use that station to go to Piccadilly or Leicester Square for most theatres, and you can be there in 20 minutes. (2) Walking around the area where the hotel is located is fun. Within a day you'll feel like it's your own neighborhood. A Marks & Spencer Local (the sign says M & S Simply Food) grocery store is 3 blocks from the hotel on the same side of the street; across from it is a Sainsbury's Local. I asked the hotel to remove everything from the minibar, and stocked the small refrigerator with pre-made sandwiches, bottles of wine and water. Harrods is 5 short blocks from the hotel, and their Food Hall is amazing. If you're not a do-it-yourself person, there are many restaurants in the neighborhood that smell wonderful when you pass by. (3) The Original London Hop on Hop off Tour Bus picks up passengers in front of the Victoria & Albert Museum, just across the street from the hotel. You can redeem a voucher or buy a ticket on board then do the museum loop on that bus, and\/or change at Piccadilly (near the Aberdeen Steak House) for a different loop that takes in the Tower of London, the Tate Modern, Westminster, Sloane Street, etc. That bus could drop you off at Harrods then it's a short walk back to the hotel, or catch the museum loop bus back to the Victoria & Albert and walk across the street to The Rembrandt. | In terms of safety, what's included, and location, The Rembrandt in London is my favorite of all the hotels in London I've stayed at over the past 40 years. Highly recommended. I just wish the wait staff in the breakfast buffet room would stop asking \"Are you OK?\" every two minutes.

I returned to the Corinthia this week. I was booked to stay for 3 nights but checked out after 1 and moved to Claridge's due to a catalogue of issues (the worst being served uncooked chicken) at the Corinthia. I stayed here in September and it was very impressive then, however my stay in the past few days was simply awful. How a hotel can go from excellent to awful in such a short space of time baffles me! After seeing the other recent negative reviews I felt I too had to share my comments. Whilst it is a very nicely designed hotel, on this occasion it was chaotic, service was hit and miss, there was a lack of clear integrity and sadly none one really dealt with my complaints appropriately until I refused to stay a moment longer and checked out (at 11.30pm at night) after my room service chicken dish was served raw. Sadly, I did really like this hotel after my previous stay, but this time it was very different. | The issues encountered included: | 1. Raw chicken being served as part of the Lebanese mixed grill room service. Please see photo. Simply unacceptable, a risk to health! | 2. Cleanliness issues: half eaten chocolate wrapper in bedroom drawer upon check-in, evening turn down service staff left dirty glasses in my room, no products were replenished and a wet towel left behind. Staff ringing the room doorbell despite my do not disturb light being on. | 3. The spa hygiene standards were appalling on the first evening we arrived. Used plaster on the side of the spa pool, used cups scattered all over the floor and piles of used bathrobes left and towels on the floor around the pool and sauna areas. Not at all what one would expect of a five star hotel. No spa attendants at all on this occasion. If standards of health & safety and hygiene can't be maintained due to staff shortages on New Year's Day then I would suggest you temporarily close the spa until you have enough staff to service it appropriately. | 4.Luggage and bags stored in the hallway on 5th floor for a day or so. People sat on the floor unpacking luggage in the hallway. | 5.When calling reception or housekeeping no one picks up. At one point my husband was forced to go down to reception to speak to someone as no one was answering the phone and after waiting 40 minutes for a call back. | 6. The hotel offers free upgrades subject to availability on their website if booking direct. Im also a member of their loyalty programme. On checkin I was informed an upgrade was not available to the next category, despite my having checked online that rooms were still available to book in the next few categories. I felt a little trust between guest and staff was lost. The next day after chasing for the upgrade we were eventually offered an upgrade which we chose to decline as the room was rather dark. I felt they thought they were doing us a favour with the upgrade. We were also offered an upgrade to a suite to make up for the issues we experienced but we would have to pay another \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd900 per night. Sadly to me this was not a genuine offer of apology or upgrade but rather an insult. | 7. Very poor at handling complaints: On the first evening I informed the duty manager of the issues with the poor standard of cleaning in my room and the spa. He said he would get the day manager to look into the issues and revert to me first thing. He promised to investigate and revert to me. I never heard back from anyone. Midday next day when chasing about the upgrade we had to mention the issues again and the fact no one had addressed them with us. All I needed was for someone to take the time to speak with me with empathy about the concerns and assure me these issues were not going to be repeated. | 8.Eventually, we were offered a complimentary meal which was then reduced to \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd100 off the bill as a gesture to apologise for the issues. This was a nice gesture but money does not make up for a poor experience. | 9.Finally, after we thought things were at last improving, we were served raw chicken. This was the last straw. | At this point we packed our bags and checked out. They did not charge us for the room and did finally apologise sincerely (Jean was most sincere) but the experience has left me very saddened. We checked into Claridge's at midnight. I then contacted the General Manager Thomas Fischer at the Corinthia the next morning to bring these issues to his attention personally. I hope my comments will be used constructively. Needless to say Claridge's is wonderfully elegant as always and we have extended our stay here as it is such a wonderful place and we need to detox from our unpleasant experience. Very sad that the start of my new year has been tainted by this unpleasant experience. I'm afraid to say the Corinthia is very much style over substance.

First contact with staff was impressive as one would expect. As we were early for check in our rom wasn't quite ready so we decided to have a light lunch in the promenade area. My husband's steak sandwich with salad garnish was good but the falafel which I had was a little disappointing especially in view of the prices charged, it was a little overdone and rather crisp.

As we got out of the lift each time we walked to our room there was an unpleasant smell of smoke although this didn't permeate the room itself. The room, a superior, was lovely, the bath huge but a real warning here for anyone of limited stature or mobility, it was a real stretch to get in with no handles to assist. I am tall and I really had to stretch to get into it. As the shower is an over the bath one this could prove difficult for some. The staff were all lovely, helpful, without any condescension and friendly. We had drinks in the promenade that evening as there was a pianist and singer, so a lovely way to end our evening. Breakfast was good although a limited hot choice for non meat eaters, the kipper I had was huge but very strong, perhaps a matter of taste but I couldn't eat it all which always annoys me as I dislike wasting food.

It was my boyfriend's 30th birthday and I wanted it to be special. The second we arrived, I knew it was going to be that. The smartly dressed Concierge immediately assisted us out of the taxi, taking our bags, which reappeared in our room. | As you walk into the hotel you are greeted by high gloss floors, beautiful flower arrangements and gigantic chandeliers. It certainly has the wow factor. I never take much notice of photographs provided by management on Trip Advisor, as I worry that they are touched up or portray something better than the reality, but I can honestly say that even the photographs on the website of the Corinthia do not do this place justice. You simply have to visit to experience it for yourself. | At check in, we were informed that we had been given a complimentary room upgrade, before being offered a short tour of the hotel's restaurants and bars. The public areas are luxurious and clean. The hallways smell of new carpet. | The room itself consisted of a huge bed, a fitted wardrobe, a flat screen television, two arm chairs and a desk area. We had two small Juliet balconies opening out over the inner courtyard. The colour schemes are muted and pleasant. The bed sheets are of such high thread count that they feel like silk. The bathrobes are white and fluffy and replaced daily, as are the slippers. | We discovered a square birthday cake adorned with a macaroon and a small box of chocolates next to a handwritten welcome note, which was a very luxurious touch. | The bathroom was like a spa in itself. There was a small flat screen television at the end of the bath, two sinks and a separate walk in shower. The shower head was so large and powerful that I could have stayed in there all day. The products provided are produced by ESPA (the same as the spa) and smell divine. Most importantly, everything felt brand new. I don't usually take a bath in a hotel or like walking around in bare feet, but in the Corinthia I felt completely at home. | The service was also impeccable. We had brought a selection of DVDs only to discover that the room did not have a DVD player. We telephoned reception and they quickly attended to install one. The turn down service involved leaving a small selection of sweets on our pillows, which added some fun. | We visited the Massimo restaurant within the hotel for dinner and tried oysters for the first time. The staff were attentive but not overpowering, explaining the different types of oyster and where they are sourced. The ambience and lighting in the restaurant is perfect for romance. | We also visited the Bassoon Piano Bar for cocktails and live music. The cocktail menu is extensive and each cocktail is prepared like an art form. They are expensive, we spent around \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd70 for 4 drinks, but we wanted to have the full experience and it isn't something we would splash out on regularly. You are provided with a small stand of nibbles, such as nuts and olives, which are frequently replaced even when they are not yet finished! | The spa is like no other spa I have ever visited. Again, it is extremely clean and luxurious. There is a dark relaxation area with beautiful other-worldly light fittings. The sauna is a glass theatre in the middle of the spa. The Jacuzzi or Vitality Pool is spacious and equipped with internal lounging areas and spray jets. Cream leather sofas line the pool area on one side. I was a little apprehensive when I saw these in the photographs, thinking that by now they are probably grubby and a bit damp from the splashes of swimmers but I shouldn't have worried. They were immaculate. | So far this review has been glowing, but there were 3 areas that I thought fell slightly below perfection. | At breakfast (which is served in The Northall) and consists of a fantastic buffet and made to order selection, the bread was a white, shop bought loaf. For a hotel of this standard, I would have preferred a selection of rustic uncut loaves. | During our visit to the Bassoon bar there were a rather roudy group of Russian visitors, who were drinking excessively, dancing, arm wrestling and moving furniture. Bar staff and security monitored the situation and apologised to other visitors, but did not ask them to leave. Eventually, they spoilt the enjoyment for ourselves and another couple and we retired to our room. I can only assume that due to the amount of money they were spending, their custom was worth their chaos. | Lastly, we accidently left one of our DVDs in the DVD player. After realising this on arriving home I didn't bother to call or write it off as any great loss, but it would have been a real 5 star service and surprise if this had been returned to us in the post. | I have visited the Corinthia again but only for cocktails in the Bassoon bar, as I was with friends and desperate to show them why I couldn't stop talking about it. I would stay here every time I visited London if my budget would allow, but until the next special occasion I can only admire from afar and recall what a sanctuary it is. | I have one last thing to say before I finish my review and that is about me. When I read the positive reviews of others, I am concerned that their standards might not be as high as mine and so never completely believe a hotel or restaurant is great, until I see it for myself. Rest assured, I am a very harsh critic, uncompromising when it comes to hygiene, cleanliness, service and quality.

We asked for a quiet executive king room on a high floor facing the back. We stayed here for a week in 2012 in a room that faced the back, and the view was charming and it was quiet. The fee for upgrade was reasonable and I was very happy that our special request was to be honoured. | When we arrived the room was not ready. We were a little early, so we left our luggage with the concierge and tootled off for lunch. When we returned, the very helpful front desk staff checked us in and we went up to our room. | The room was small but well appointed. The linens on the bed were clean. The pillows were fluffy and smelled nice. The bathroom was clean and the toiletries were lovely. The water pressure was good. There were jacuzzi jets in the bathtub. The air conditioning was strong and responsive. | The breakfast is very good at the Rembrandt. There is a fine selection. The breakfast room is sweltering hot, however, so if you are accustomed to somewhat cooler temperatures, e.g., you are not from a tropical country, don't get dressed up for breakfast because you will have to change into fresh clothes when you are done due to the sweat. That being said, it is a lovely room and the service is top notch. | Here's the problem. We booked this room well in advance and I emphasized during our check in that we really wanted (needed) a quiet room because I am a light sleeper especially when I am training my body out of jet lag. The first night was lovely. During the second day, a couple moved into the next door room with two very loud children. The children were undisciplined screamers. It was obnoxious. | We called down to the front desk and complained, and the hotel offered to move us. I didn't want to move, I wanted to stay in the room that we requested 2 months ago during the reservation process. The hotel should have a) moved the loud family, or b) not booked them into the room beside us in the first place. The two alternate rooms the hotel offered us both faced the inner courtyard, so we would lost our view. Neither room had a jacuzzi bathtub. Without the charm of the Dickensian rooftop view from our original room, the lustre of the Rembrandt faded quite quickly. It was also much, much noisier. | We chose the least noisy of the two rooms. We woke the next morning with headaches. When we left the room to get breakfast, we discovered that the walls in the hall had been painted. It reeked. | The next morning after that, we awoke to an awful racket in the hall. They were pulling up the carpets in the hall. | That was the final straw. There hadn't been any warning, no notice, no advice to the customers at all. It was utterly unacceptable.

The room we had was great. It had a little hall area, with a guest washroom to the left. Then there was a living room with a sofa, chair, TV, fireplace, lots of books, desk, mini bar, flowers and great views of the river. Off the living room was the bedroom, large king size bed (very high), TV, dressing table, then off this a hall way with 2 wardrobes and a large bathroom. Its all very traditional and maybe not to everyones taste. Some nice touches like the sowing kit comes in a little cloth bag from Liberty, the china is made for the Savoy by wedgwood. I think every room at the Savoy has a framed photo of someone famous that has stayed at the hotel. In our case it was Coco Chanel. This is placed on the bedside table and frankly I found it a little strange to wake up and be faced by an image of someone I didn't know who is long dead. | Service | On arrival I was met by a porter who very quickly took my bag and asked me for my name. He repeated my name and I think this is how they tell the reception staff that your have arrived. Once inside the hotel i was handed over to a guy who took me to my room. Then when we got to the room the butler was standing outside waiting. This is all done very well and its as if they know who you are. The butler then spent 15-20mins chatting and showing me round the room. He offered to unpack, to have cloths ironed, shoes polished, what papers we wanted in the morning. Would we like tea or coffee brought to us in bed in the morning. Would we like tea or coffee now? From time to time your butler will call to see of there is anything you need. There is no real check out. The night before you leave your bill is placed on the desk, if you would like your butler to pack for you you can call for them and thats it. You just leave. | Over the top service | This is just an example. At breakfast tea arrived in a silver tea pot, with a second silver pot containing hot water. Both were on a little sliver tray that was placed on the table. The waiter then poured the tea and toped up the pot with hot water. He then offered to add milk. Once you took a mouthful of tea they were back to top the cup up again. Maybe its just me but I don't like that level of service. I like to do a few things for myself. Picking up a tea pot and pouring my own tea is not going to strain my wrist! | Breakfast | We had breakfast on the second day. One of the earlier guests posted on this site that they had to wait on a table becoming available for breakfast. We didn't have to wait at all, I am not sure if this is new but they are currently serving breakfast in two different rooms. Maybe we were just luck. | American Bar | We wanted to have a drink in the American bar. The hotel state that you cannot per book a table in either of their bars. On arrival at the American bar we were told that it would be at least 45 mins before they would have a table for us. We asked about the other bar and they said 30 mins. There is no priority given to hotel guests. This to me is really poor. You spend \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd2150 + vat per night and you can't even get a drink at the bar. | The Savoy like maybe Raffles in Singapore or the Mount Nelson in Cape Town is trying to be a destination in its own right. Maybe not a great example but...you can stay at the Shangri-La in Singapore which is a 5 star hotel serving Singapore. Singapore is the destination and the Shangri-La hotel is just that, a hotel. With the Savoy it sort of feels that they are trying to be the destination and London comes second. Maybe another way of putting it. The Savoy is bit like a theme hotel harking back to a previous age. | We had our honeymoon at the Savoy shortly before they closed in 2007, this was the first time we had been back to stay and i'm sure we will be back again. | Alex", "Location Of The Reviewer": "London, United Kingdom", "Date Of Review": "2\/8\/2011" }, { "Property_Name": "Mondrian London at Sea Containers", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "Fantastic stay at The Mondrian.", "Review Text": "Beautiful hotel with fantastic attention to detail ,excellent staff.

I chose to stay here because of the location and the price (\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd75 for a single room in the main building, on the ground floor). | The best thing about it, for me, is the location. It is located a couple of minutes' walk away from Paddington station, which has good connections to the touristy areas and Heathrow airport. The street it's on is also relatively quiet and scenic. | I had paid \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd10 more than the normal \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd65\/night for a single room (looking at the site now, though, it looks like the price has gone up) for a room in the main building, with a slightly bigger bed, a renovated bathroom and on the ground floor (travelling alone I wasn't sure I'd be able to manage several flights of stairs with my luggage). I had (mistakenly) thought it meant I was getting the room in the picture. | Looking back, I should have just said \"Give me the room in your picture\". The room I got met all the requirements but had a window that opened to an air well and felt more cramped than I anticipated. | There are useful amenities in the room such as mini fridge, tea and coffee making facilities, TV (only a few channels, though), central heating, aircon, a small writing desk, attached bathroom with a shower and WC and free wifi (another highlight for me). | There is one computer that guests can use to go online. I used it only once to send my boarding pass to the printer at the reception area. The rest of the time I was happily able to go online on my own laptop in the comfort of my own room. | I would hesitate to recommend it to people who are a little pickier about cleanliness. On the day I arrived, I noticed a pill at the base of the small wardrobe (you wouldn't notice it unless you bent down to see it). It was still there when I left five days later. I think the room gets vacuumed (I think they do vacuum the rooms otherwise there would have been more hair\/dirt on the carpet by the end of my stay) but the corners are missed. | Another issue I had with the place is the old-school lock on the room door. There is only one lock that secures the room from outsiders and anyone with the key (such as a housekeeping staff who might accidentally walk in on you while you're changing if you don't respond quickly enough when they come calling to clean the room) can enter.

The one thing you can always be sure of with Corinthia is a genuine and warm welcome. | The Hotel is located just off the Thames embankment and is a five minute walk along Northumberland Avenue to Trafalgar Square. Your are cordially welcome by the immaculate and top hatted door man and ushered in to the truly stunning lobby. Reception Is always manned by at least three staff and if they are occupied you wont wait long before another staff member appears to check you in. Check is usually efficient and friendly and the receptionist will escort you to your room and offer you a tour of the hotel in the process. On this occasion we were slightly early so the room was not quite ready. We were shown to the Lobby Lounge and offered a drink. The lounge is an oasis of calm and you will be well looked after. We enjoyed a Latte and Americano and watched the world go by. After about 20 minutes the receptionist return along with the Guest Relations Manager who welcomed us back to the hotel. We were then told the coffees were complimentary and that our room was ready. | We were shown to our room which was on the fourth floor. We had been upgraded to a Trafalgar Suite which took us some what by surprise. Now, the executive rooms are stunning and beautifully appointed and I can sure you the Suites are even more so. The suite comprised a Large Sitting Room, hallway, guest bathroom, numerous closets, a vast bedroom and equally large bathroom. The room was beautifully decorated and incredibly comfortable. Despite the luxurious appointments of the room you still feel comfortable, relaxed and dare I say it, at home in the room. I can thoroughly recommend the tropical rain shower as well. The room included two minibars, three televisions (Bedroom, Lounge and Bathroom) and a Nespresso Coffee Machine.

The Northall Bar was very quiet and we felt that it lacked atmosphere although I would stress it's difficult to create atmosphere with only three people in the bar. The Northall Bar was located in a beautifully decorated high ceilinged room and I can imagine that when its busy the atmosphere is probably fantastic. We were welcomed and served promptly and we enjoyed a cocktail from the extensive menu. We decided not eat in here or go through to the Northall Restaurant itself. Instead we returned to the Lobby Lounge were we enjoyed numerous glasses of wine and a bite to eat. For us the Lobby Lounge has much more atmosphere and we enjoyed a very comfortable few hours here before eventually making our way to our room at about midnight.

The cooked breakfast was hot and tasty and accompanied with a large pot of coffee.

Its elegance and quality is understated and it does not feel the need to ram it's status down your throat. It has no need to either. It far exceeds many other 5 star hotels and does so with the same calm. friendly and attentive service that you come to expect from Corinthia.

Yes yes, I know this is my fault for not noticing before booking. Come on Mondrian, so what if Mondays are a quieter day of the week, you're not a small operator and from what I can gather it's a huge asset to your property, keep it open. | However, it is impossible to be in a huff here, the hotel and everything within it is nothing short of sublime, within seconds I was happy to admit all was forgiven. | I love the entrance, not like so many London hotels where you're trying to fling yourself out the cab with your case into busy traffic\/pavement, it's a quiet side street (hotel is a 15 minute walk from Waterloo train station). There's also a pedestrian entrance from the South Bank. The South Bank is busy but one step into the hotel and you're into an oasis of calm. No where in the hotel was there any noise, not even from the nearby building works. | All the employees are trained to a point where you're left wondering if they're actually some sort of futuristic robots. Not only are they highly skilled - in a 5 star hotel this is not surprising - but in addition to this firstly they had a genuine rapport with each other and secondly they came across as enjoying their jobs. A real 10\/10 here. | We like fresh air so I'd booked one of the rooms with a little garden, but unbeknown to us until we put the key in the door, we'd been upgraded to a river view suite on the 5th floor. I can't swear so I'll stick to 'WOW'. We probably spent half an hour just walking around, it was fabulous. It was also a real bonus as the weather was rainy so we'd have got no use of the garden room, whereas this room had not one but two covered balconies. We immediately changed our plans for pre dinner drinks and enjoyed the minibar drinks sitting on the balcony enjoying watching the world walk, drive and sail by and across the river to St Pauls cathedral. In the morning I was up early so back out there with my coffee (wonderful nespresso machine) watching London wake up. The room and every facility in it was faultless. The room service drinks came the closest you could be to 'immediately'. We saw the garden rooms looking down from a window near the lift, and they looked much bigger than the website photo gives them credit for, we'd have been very happy here too I'm sure. | After dinner out we enjoyed drinks in the Dandelyan Bar, such a fun atmosphere, lots of comfy seating and cool dark areas. The music playing was loud enough so you're not distracted by other conversations but low enough to be able to chat easily.

Unfortunately, there were some difficulties upon check-in. Having arrived quite early I was told that, unfortunately, my room was not yet ready. That in itself was nothing to complain about because, after all, check-in time was 2:00 p.m. and they were apparently fully booked. However, when I asked at about 1:30 when my room would be ready I was informed that the maids would need another 20 or 25 minutes - only to be given the same answer when I inquired again at 2:00. This clearly should not have happened. When I finally got into my room - a Park View room on the third floor - I found it to be quite spacious (it seems I was upgraded one category) and to have, as expected, a nice view. The bedroom was well appointed and the mattress was one of the best I ever slept on in any hotel. The bathroom, on the other hand, was a bit disappointing: there was no walk-in shower and only one washbasin and the traffic noise was quite loud. In the bedroom, due to its better sound insulation, the noise was not as bad but still audible. After all, there is a road between the hotel and Hyde Park (South Carriage Drive), although on the hotel's web page they make it look as if there weren't any. (Given the very heavy traffic on Knightsbridge Road I shudder to think how loud it must be in their Knightsbridge rooms.) Speaking of noise, it was not possible to leave the air conditioning on during the night because it was just too loud. | The big plus of this hotel is clearly its location: You just have to cross one road to get into Hyde Park (and, from there, on to Kensington Gardens) so that you can always easily stretch your legs or even take a long walk in (comparatively) fresh air. South of the hotel is Knightsbridge with its many shopping destinations (such as Harvey Nichols). The Royal Albert Hall with its adjacent museums is just a ten minute walk away and, last not least, the Knightsbridge subway station is literally around the corner so that you do not need a taxi even if you have some luggage with you. | I did not have lunch or dinner in the hotel so I cannot comment on their restaurants. I did try to have afternoon tea however, which was quite a disappointing experience. You can have tea or coffee only in their bar which does not have any natural light and, therefore, no view. They will tell you that they cannot serve any of the things you would expect to go with afternoon tea and only after I explicitly asked for scones and pointed out to them that they were on the room service menu could could I obtain some. Furthermore, the bar with its lounge chairs and tables is a very uncomfortable place to have anything except a drink in the evening. I really do not understand why, between lunch and dinner time, it is not possible to sit in the restaurant with its view of the park to have tea or coffee. This is clearly not what you expect from a five star hotel in, of all places, London. | Breakfast was served in the restaurant I just mentioned. There was a wide selection of cold and hot dishes to choose from and everything was (or, at least, seemed to be) of the highest quality. Service was friendly and overall very good - although for it to be called excellent that little, hard-to-define extra something was missing. | Maybe I am being a little too critical but, being a regular guest of the MO Munich and thus having been spoiled quite a bit, I had rather high expectations for this MO Hotel - expectations that clearly were not met. Not only are the rooms of the MO Munich better appointed, more spacious (within their respective categories) and quieter. And not only is the lobby and bar area much nicer and more comfortable. More importantly, service is far better in every way. This begins with the welcome by the porter and the bell boys, continues with the very friendly and competent service in the restaurants (both at breakfast and at lunch or dinner) and does not end with the maids (for example, in London I missed the sheet with next day's weather forecast you receive at turndown in Munich). If you walk the corridors of the MO Munich you will never ever come across a member of staff who does not greet you and give you a friendly smile (which happened to me once or twice in London). I am quite aware of the differences between the hotel markets of Munich and London but there definitely is a reason why on Tripadvisor the MO Munich is consistently ranked the number one hotel in Munich whereas the MO London occupies a place somewhere between 150th and 200th of the London hotels. Although they are both five stars and although they both belong to the same chain, the MO London is clearly in a different (lower, that is) league. | Don't get me wrong: this is still a very good hotel. But, at least for me, there was no compelling reason to revisit. | One thing else: Before you tip anybody, remember there will be a 5% \"discretionary service charge\" on your bill. I mean, you don't want to pay twice for tips... (This 5% charge will be removed from your bill if you insist but nobody will tell you that you do not really have to pay it - which I consider a rather inappropriate procedure).", "Location Of The Reviewer": "Bayreuth", "Date Of Review": "10\/21\/2013" }, { "Property_Name": "Apex London Wall Hotel", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "professionalit\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd e cortesia", "Review Text": "Ottima struttura situata in zona centrale e molto ben collegata al resto della citt\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd.

The flowers in the Promenade, by the way, are the most stunning I've seen in a hotel in a long time. | Service is what really sets this hotel apart. It is a very busy property, yet we never felt overlooked in any way. The concierges helped us make some fantastic dinner reservations (resulting in some truly memorable meals) within and outside of the hotel. Guests are warmly greeted each time they walk through the doors.

Rooms in this hotel are very small (I knew it, but my room as the size of room is mentioned on the hotel's website, but my room number 417 was extremely small), but I'm aware that this is due to the age of the building. There is also pretty much no recognition for Marriott Rewards Platinum Members (only complimentary breakfast, no room upgrade) however these are only 2 disadvantages of this hotel - the rest is absolutely perfect. Staff is incredible - they are simply amazing - I've visited many hotels, and I've never met such friendly staff (even in the 5* hotels). There are also high quality amenities at each room - L'Occitane toiletries, Acqua Panna water, Taylors of Harrogate tea and tablet which can be used to order everything you need.

In fact, having stayed there almost two months already this year (2017), I was disappointed when terms for another stay could not be worked out. So I tried the Lanesborough. I had previously never stayed at the Lanesborough but had experience of their bar and Afternoon Tea. I only needed six nights stay this time. So I gave them a try and they passed the test with almost perfect marks. | Let me break down the elements of the stay and hopefully I can lend some assistance to those who may be interested. | First, the doormen. A 10 out of 10. Each one was expert at their job and one gentleman in particular learned my name on arrival for check-in and never forgot it. With easy banter, a twinkle in their eye and quickness of movement to assist with bags or the door to a car or the hotel, they are spot on. As a first introduction to the Lanesborough, these gentlemen have got it right. | Next, the reception staff. Efficient and effective. Of course, it also helped that on check-in I was advised my room was ready despite arriving at 9:30am after a long flight. One difference I noted from my \"other\" hotel was that there was no pressure to upgrade to a higher class of room. I was very happy with that and they quickly and efficiently received my details and got me on my way to my room. | The butler. I don't have great use for a butler, but I did use them and it was good to know they were there. I unpacked myself (something I might have had them do) but they did assist me quickly with pressings, dry cleanings etc. Pleasant people and seemingly very willing to help - and only the press of a call button away. Not the same footman service as the \"Impeccably English\" competitor (and the \"signature\" cocktail promptly delivered to the suite daily at 5:30pm at the \"other place\" was missed), but that's OK. | The room - a junior suite on the third floor. Terrific. Fresh and refined. The bottle of champagne from the manager was welcome, but I was in retrospect very rude and did not send him a note of thanks. High-tech amenities (everything from the lighting to curtains to wake-up calls to ordering room service to calling the butler is controlled from several small tablets spread throughout the room). A good sized room for one or two people and (to me) slightly larger than the \"Impeccably English\" competition (their \"Most Splendid Garden Room\") at lower cost. The bathroom was top notch (large sink, TV in the mirror, large tub, excellent shower, toilet and bidet - and room to move) and the use of dispensers with top-mounted pumps for body wash, shampoo and conditioner means you're not struggling with unscrewing bottles and balancing them on wire racks in between uses. Sumptuous towels which slightly surpassed \"the other place\". Well thought-through and it shows. The only issue was that a couple of the electrical plugs in the writing desk (for charging phones, etc) did not appear to work properly and were not repaired despite noting that on the first day (not a huge problem as I could use other outlets in the room). | Room cleaning was perfect every day. Spotless and impeccably in all respects. Well done! | The dining room - Celeste. Simply excellent. Just one meal here - a business dinner for three and we chose the set menu with wines. There was a miss on just one of the wines (some orange derivative which perhaps we simply didn't have the experience to \"get\"), but otherwise each course was terrific and delightful. I would not hesitate to return here for a meal even if I was not staying in the hotel. Strongly recommended. | The Spa. Terrific and obviously fresh and new. I had one massage here to start my week after travelling and it was a very good experience. The one thing - get a member of staff to help you get there. It is in the basement and whilst I never thought myself directionally-challenged it is a rabbit-warren down there and at least I got confused. But once found, the spa is huge and well worth the effort to find it! | The Library Bar - very good indeed. Great for a quiet drink and a chat among friends. The service (save for below) was as expected and unobtrusive but effective. The one area they did stumble on was follow-up on food orders. Two of the three meals I had here had issues and I was not satisfied they were resolved as might have been expected from a hotel of this standing. First experience - dinner on my own and steak ordered medium rare. It arrived clearly well-done. There was no timely follow-up on the meal by the server, so it was eaten but it was not the perfection it should have been. Second experience - lunch with a client and the burger was ordered with specific and clear instructions for well-done, crispy bacon. What should have been obvious to the server was that the bacon - draped over the meat and protruding from the bun - was rare, slightly greasy fare. Certainly nothing close to crispy. Again, no follow-up on the food until the server arrived to remove the plates. I had extracted the undercooked bacon from the bun and it lay lonely, limp and discarded on the plate. Had I not mentioned to the server as she tried to whisk it away that the chef appeared to have a different definition of \"crispy and well-done\" to the rest of the world, the server would not have mentioned the issue either. She clearly seemed flustered regarding her inability to deal with the error and scampered away. Disappointing to say the least. However, the third meal on the last night of my stay (I risked the same steak order again, medium rare) was perfect. Delicious and delightfully medium rare. Server checked on the meals soon after delivery. Happy time. Faith restored! | How would I make the Lanesborough better? Aside from the bar food service mentioned above there is only one suggestion which, though it may seem trivial, was something noticeable to me. At the \"Impeccably English\" competition, whenever I would go into the bar they would know me (or ask if I was a resident of the staff member did not recognise me). Granted I have stayed at that other hotel many times over the years and am slightly known, but it is a huge and welcome element to a visit to the bar to be known. The doormen clearly have mastered that skill (and they deal with many more people coming in and out of the hotel than the bar staff), so why not the bar staff (and I note that some but not all of the bar staff - notably the lovely young French server and the delightful young French gentleman - did know my name within a couple of days)? And it's not name recognition that is important to me but rather I prefer to go to the bar, eat and drink and then get up and walk away - I do not want to nor should I need to see a bill. I should be able to trust the bar staff to get my charges right and they should know I will happily pay the bill as a resident of the hotel. That may be one thing that the \"Impeccably English\" boutique does clearly better than the Lanesborough. But at the end of the day that is a very small issue in light of the Lanesborough's other successes. | I will stay at the Lanesborough again. A delightful experience overall and well worth it.

We arrived at Heathrow, took the Heathrow Express to Picadilly, and then a bus \"close\" to the hotel. At that time I was't sure how to use the bus system and we definitely didn't get as close as we could have.

The room was very, very small (maybe 6' X 5'), but fine and the bathroom was very small but also fine. The beds were very firm, and we could hear the noise from the outside street almost as if there was no windows. Well - checking the windows, it turned out that the windows were cracked open a tiny bit. By closing them, the sound was MUCH more tolerable!! | The 2nd night we were on the 3rd floor. The room was probably twice the size as the first (which isn't saying it was a huge room - maybe 10' x 10'). | Both rooms were clean and the decoration was homey. | The selling points of this hotel (as stated by many others): | - The incredible price | - The wonderful people who worked there. All of them!!!! | - The location was perfect - it was 2 blocks to the British Museum, and really just a few steps and then across the street to an incredible bus line that took us through many of London's attractions, and right to Victoria Station. We ended up taking the bus almost everywhere. Great experience with London's transportation system, which is amazing because it was during the tube strike. | - We used Goodge Street tube which was approx. 1 block away. We used this station to transfer to our next hotel, so we had luggage with us but it worked out fine - there are elevators that take you down to the tube. Perfect! | - The breakfast was good. There was cereal, toast with butter and marmalade, 1 egg, and a bacon\/ham type thing (it was a combo of both - I've never had that in the US). On one morning the egg was served with a fried tomoto half and on the next morning the egg was served with beans (like pork and beans) - again something that isn't usual in the US for breakfast, but what the heck!! They also had very nice hot chocolate! | - I traveled with my 15 year old daughter and I did not feel anxious walking around the area at night. | - Free internet! This is so wonderful to have available. There is a very homey lounge area and a computer that guests can use. | Bottom line: I would stay here again and have already recommended it to several people who may be going to London.

Being a toilet you know exactly what association your mind naturally and immediately makes! I don\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt know if this was caused by water damage from a plumbing incidenct or what, but it is very unsightly in an otherwise spotless room. It doesn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt look nice, and should be addressed. Next up was on Saturday morning, I was awakened by what sounded like the world\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds largest kettle boiling! I\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdd no idea what it was? Then maybe 20mins later it happened again for a few mins. Was pretty annoying but didn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt last long and served as a good wakeup call! It wasn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt till I went for my morning shower that I realised what it was! My own shower made the same thundering \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdboiling\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd noise through the pipes!

One evening I walked with family into Piccadilly Circus -- didn't take long. | The room has triple glazing -- modern double glazing over the original window so there is no street noise.

The truth is too many reviews that mention this phrase are saying, \"it wasn't very good but the fact I paid next to nothing somehow made it acceptable.\" I know me and a cheapo rate for an uncomfortable stay is not an issue of \"you got what you paid for\" but rather \"I wouldn't pay a penny for an uncomfortable stay, anywhere.\" | My stay at the Ridgemount Hotel in London last month was comfortable, thanks to the following: | PROS | -Room w\/ ensuite, reasonably close to central London, and under $100 a night. | -Private bathroom was the conventional tiled variety with standard sized toilet and shower and NOT the tiny plastic airplane cubicles installed in many similar hotels. | -I appreciate a friendly face but I don't enjoy people all up in mine, attending to my every move. The young man at the main office during the evenings didn't tell me his life story or make small chatter. He was civil, succinct, and helpful. That's all I needed. | -The nearby tube station. | -Starbucks, Cafe Nero, a couple of really tempting sandwich shops, and a Tesco are all a short walk away (approximately 10 min. on a brisk walk. I'm a very fast walker and it usually took me about 5 min. to get to these places from the hotel). | -Very clean room, serviced daily. | -The owner's attention to security. I was greeted upon arrival by the aforementioned young man since I arrived in the late afternoon. The owner is around during the earlier part of the day and so was unfamiliar with me when he saw me the next day, entering the hotel and heading upstairs. He immediately called out to me and asked what my room number was. He was satisfied with my response and went about his business. It was admittedly a bit jarring but I appreciated his looking out for his guests more. Also, at night, the front door is locked as well as a second glass door immediately after it. Guests are given a key to both front doors in addition to the key to their rooms. That way, nobody but guests have access at night. Even during the day, the glass door is closed and locked at all times. This made me feel VERY secure while in the main lounge at night. | -Some of the claims of extreme nighttime and early morning noise are unfounded. No, it wasn't absolutely silent but any noise was standard for a large city like London and nothing was excessive or unbearably loud. | -Perks included a small, color television w\/ remote in my room; daily fresh towels; free instant coffee and tea from the vending machine in the main lounge (soft drinks available in another vending machine but for a small fee); use of the hotel computer w\/ free internet access in the main lounge; for a tiny fee, you can forward any e-mail or other document to the main office where it will be printed out for you. I found this extremely helpful for printing my boarding pass on the day of my departure. | CONS | -I'm young and fit and didn't think 6 flights of stairs would be an issue. Well, it was, and I'd usually reach my room panting and sweaty. Obviously, this isn't the hotel's fault but it did become somewhat bothersome after awhile. | - Housekeeping. I'd like to STRESS that the young lady and the older woman who serviced my room daily were at all times very, very friendly, mindful, polite, and professional and left my room looking nice and tidy every time. However, I can't deny that the housekeeping service in general at hotels is quite a hassle to deal with. Apart from the excellent staff, I liked that they performed the service during the late-morning hours and not while everyone was still asleep. I'm a late riser, so I had to throw on some clothes and leave my room in a groggy state while it got serviced. On two occasions I politely told the young lady I did not require housekeeping and she respected my wishes. Still, I suggest you make or purchase and take with you a \"No housekeeping. Thank you\" sign if you intend to get up late and don't wish to be disturbed. | -The nearest 24 hr. convenience store (Tesco) is a good 20 minute walk away. A bit too far when one has a craving\/hunger at night, which I often had due to jet lag messing up my sleeping pattern. | -No opened businesses of any kind immediately outside the hotel. Everything was a brisk 5-15 min. walk away. | This hotel is ideal for anyone who wants the essentials and general standard quality at lower-than-most rates. I stayed in and recommend room 30 which was a single, ensuite room at the very top floor (pics attached), to any solo traveler who's small to medium in stature. You will probably find the room too cramped if you're very tall and\/or very heavy-set.

As it was somewhere to lay our heads before the marathon, I was happy with \"basic\". I wasn't happy with dirty though. When I asked a passerby if they knew the way to the hotel, I should have guessed on it's quality when they stifled a laugh. On first impressions from the outside, it looked a little like hostel and a shabby one at that. Inside, it was basic and the reception demanded the money up front - they only accepted cash and this wasn't made clear beforehand.

We thought that our favorite city could not suprise us any more, but we were sooo wrong! We booked the hotel last minute and got a very good deal. Arriving at St Pancras by 9AM, a 15 min taxi ride took us to the hotel where we were promptly escorted to our room (which was indeed available, in accordance with the hotel's policy), which left us plenty of time to walk down to Tate Miodern in time for our 10.30 am slot at the Gerhard Richter's exhibition. The location is indeed hard to beat: 2 min to Trafalgar with its galleries, 5 min to theatreland, 2 min to the horseguards and St james park lying behind, 5 min to Piccadilly and Jermyn street with its unique shops, 10 min to Covent Garden, etc, etc. and I mean walking not driving minutes. | The room was exceptionally big, although according to the floorplan, ours was the smallest. You enter in a hall with the bedroom to the left, the bathroom to the right and the halll itself leading onto a huge walk-in dressing with automatic lighting, lots of drawers, shelves and hangers!!. The room decoration is very stylish, a very comfortable bed, good reading lights, in fact good lighting everywhere, double sinks in the bathroom, a huge bathtub, separate walk in rain shower, and separate toilet and bidet.

I've stayed in many hotels in Europe and the United States. This is by some margin the most impressed I've ever been by a hotel stay. | Almost everything about the ambiance is exactly what I think many people imagine a luxury hotel should be. There's a kind of old-fashioned glamour about the place that somehow just feels \"right\". Our room was spacious (both bedroom and bathroom) and elegantly appointed. The bed was luxurious and comfortable. Almost everything in the hotel was spotless and in great condition. Our complementary Wi-Fi was easy to log on to, and very usable. The hotel has done a great job of making the rooms feel individually designed (even if they're not) and refreshingly \"uncorporate\". | We didn't eat in the hotel (we had dining plans elsewhere), but did have a drink in the American Bar. Our cocktails were made to an exceptionally high standard - better than in most bars that claim to be serious about cocktails, and equal to the best of any other cocktail bar I've been to. | What really made the hotel stand out from others, though, were the staff. Every single member of staff in the hotel that we interacted with - the doormen, the lady who greeted us and to show us around the hotel and check us in, the hostess at the American bar who seated us so quickly, the chambermaid who did the turn down service and brought fresh towels when we asked, the receptionist in the Reading Room who looked after us at checkout and took care of storing our bags - was fabulous, polite, friendly and competent. You might not think that's too much to ask - to be honest, neither do I! However, the truth is - in most hotels it's pretty rare to find a single member of staff that reach the high standards that every single member of staff at The Savoy appears to be at. | Of course, as with many hotels, they have their little tricks to try to make the guests feel special - like the very smooth way they greet you by name as you walk through the front door. However, in contrast to many other hotels, the way these are executed at the Savoy really work - it almost never feels like anything other than a genuine desire to provide a great experience. | For anyone that doesn't know London well, one of the convenient things about The Savoy is its central location. The Strand, itself, isn't a particularly appealing road - aside from anything else, the volume of traffic is high. However, it is in the heart of the West End - it's literally two minutes to walk to Covent Garden, for example. And it's just a short cab or tube ride to places like Mayfair or Knightsbridge. | Based on our stay, there were only a few things that could be improved, but they're mostly pretty minor. For example, the iPod dock in the room doesn't seem to work with iPhones, which is a shame. For some reason, on the television, Channel 5 didn't work. Possibly the biggest criticisms I'd have would be that the decor in the American Bar didn't have the \"wow factor\" that other parts of the hotel do, and the best bars elsewhere, manage to achieve; and also that our room didn't have a standalone shower (it was part of the bath). | As I said earlier, we didn't eat in the hotel, so I can't comment on the standard of the food. I guess the fact that we'd booked elsewhere to eat, though, does say that, at least for our tastes, there weren't any options that are as appealing as other some other restaurants in London. We didn't have time to use the spa or gym facilities, so I can't comment on those either. | Obviously, The Savoy isn't the cheapest option in London.

I\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdm hardpressed to call this a five star property. This establishment is very sadly a very old and dated hotel with half assed renovations and trying to still live in its prime. We spent the majority of our trip at the Corinthia, which was worlds away and beyond what Savoy was offering. They\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdre both supposedly of the same caliber, but Savoy garnering the old world prestige, but the differences are immediately obvious. | To be fair, what I\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdm mentioning are really just first world problems in the grand scheme of things. | -As a Fairmont property, Savoy charges 9.99 GBP\/24 hours for wifi. Not to be a brat about this, but when your only charge for a one night stay is the internet, most properties usually waive something as inconsequential as this upon checkout; but when you\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdre running bankrupt as we read, I can see why you can\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt offer it. Corinthia? Free. | -The concierge is just one person at a desk a time \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd when we requested assistance on an impending reservation, they were assisting others and we were told they would contact us back, whereas at the Corinthia, there was an army of staff behind the counter to assist us with anything we needed. | -The gym at the Corinthia was 24 hours \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd a detail that\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds very small and minute for anyone to notice, but when the availability is there for you to use a world class massive gym at anytime even when battling jetlag, you notice the difference. Savoy? Closed at 8PM. | -The guestroom is very old \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd yes, they remodeled the bathroom with new amenities and marbled tiles, etc., but there\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds a janky little corner stand where they throw in some mouthwash and cute little le labo supplies. If you were really thinking through your remodel, you probably could\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdve sprung for a little more effort in the shelving arena. The bedroom furniture is dated; yes, you could argue \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdold world elegance\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd, but I would say that it\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds just plain old. The closets were old and musky, with \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdnewer\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd amenities\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdor just a safe. Perhaps they skimped on the standard rooms when remodeling? But come on guys, go big or go home. | All in all, I hate being the one who writes a review to compare solely to another hotel, but maybe our mistake was staying at the Corinthia first and then swapping to the Savoy. If you\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdre not into the whole \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdhistoric elegance\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd (very overrated) or into bragging that you stayed at this world-famous establishment, head to the Corinthia \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd it\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds just down the street, worlds better, newer, fresher, and frankly less buildup for a complete letdown. | What I will say is that the service is great \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd these people do try hard, but it\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds sad when the amenities just aren\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt up to par; you just turn into a sad used car salesman.", "Location Of The Reviewer": "San Francisco, California", "Date Of Review": "1\/6\/2014" }, { "Property_Name": "Bulgari Hotel, London", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "Luxury hotel with high profile guests", "Review Text": "I went to an event held in the basement of this hotel, it was very very glamorous and I honestly felt a million dollars in this hotel.

However, during my stay the bell boys, the concierge, the front desk, every staff member I came across collectively made sure I had a safe and fun time in London. The bell boys are bursting with style and personality and they reminded me of some friends back home in New York City.They especially dealt with all of my quirks in the most professional of ways as I fumbled a bit with some of the inconspicuous fixtures in the Standard Room . Upon leaving everyday they helped me navigate the area and were just there for basic conversation, everything one looks for in great hospitality.The decor was nothing less than posh which I expected.. but was still impressed.From the fine china down to the delicious treats in the mini bar, as a young female traveler I couldn't feel any more at ease. What really sealed the deal for me was the very handsome ponytailed concierge. He allowed me to sit at his desk and write out all of my postcards without rushing me and even mailed them out for me. I understand that this was all involved in my cost, but he made me feel as though he would go out of his way to make sure my letters got to where they needed to go.

The location is terrific. The South Kensington tube station is a block and a half away, Harrods, etc. are about 3-4 blocks the other direction. The V&A museum is literally across the street, so it was nice to walk over for the day. Knightsbridge \/ Kensington are two of the nicest areas in the Center of London. The music academy is a block away, so there are always great performances to attend without having to travel very far. It's a great neighborhood. | From the moment we checked into the Rembrandt, it seemed as though the desk staff had something more important to do (and we had just spent the previous 3 weeks in Italy, so our tolerance for 'abrupt' treatment from hotel staff was pretty high). Aside from one nice man who loaned us an extension cord and some of his tools to fix a suitcase, the staff was just plain rude. | Our room had once been beautiful. It was large and had a nice sitting area that overlooked the V&A Museum. The condition of the room, however was a far cry from 'shabby chic'. The carpet was worn and stained, the furniture was worn nearly through in many places, and both the furniture and the feather mattress pad and duvet had a musty smell. | There was so much deferred maintenance that I can't list it all, but the main thing that stands out in my mind is that the mini-bar fridge hadn't been cleaned in a long time, and with the key-card system the hotel uses to shut down electricity in the room having turned off the power, smelled slightly of wet cat. The bathroom sink drain was slow, the ironing board wouldn't stand up. You get the idea. Once a hotel experience turns, as this one did, the list of things one notices gets longer and longer :) | After the first breakfast, we vowed to walk to other food. The buffet reflected the same lack of care as the rest of the presentation. We just kept asking ourselves, \"does anybody care that things are like this?\". The answer is that if someone did, they wouldn't be. | When we went to the front desk to express a few concerns, the young lady (without realizing that I could see what she was writing) while listening to my partner describe our concern, smiled and wrote down a completely different number (while repeating it back). When I repeated the number, she realized I was standing where I could see her notepad, blushed, scribbled it out and wrote the number down. It spoke to the lack of concern for us or any customer, and we weren't going on like I am right now, it was something as simple as a request for a room key because housekeeping had taken ours out of the key-card slot. | This hotel could be a great find, with just a little TLC and a tightening of the managerial reigns.

The wardrobe was a little small for 2 people but we managed to fit everything. The bed was comfortable.

We were greeted by friendly staff and guided through where we enjoyed a reasonably priced 50 minute massage followed by a relaxing chill out afterwards (we lost track of time easily here) I suggest you book ahead as it gets BUSY. | DRINKS: We booked a window table at the Rumpus Bar. Prices are a little high for me but it was a birthday so happy to pay. Had to wait 15 minutes for our drink but not a problem as it was getting busy. The views are spectacular from the terrace.

I find it ironic that I am not permitted to review a hotel in terms of sleep quality when the room\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdand the mattress in particular\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdfacilities were so poor that staying overnight was impossible. | I have stayed in all sorts of hotels\/motels\/inns\/converted barns\/hostels all over the world, and never have I not found something to love about the room. Not so the Ridgemount Hotel, which was so reminiscent of my long-ago volunteer days in a tragic psychiatric facility (now closed) in Ontario, we had to leave the hotel despite our having paid for four nights in a row. | To begin, the stuffy room was smaller than a prison cell, and, as I said, about as cheerful. The noise from the street below was immediately overwhelming, and there was no room to unpack our luggage. Worse, the chair was unsittably lumpy and the bed so uncomfortable we had nowhere to sit or lie down except on the toilet. While it is true we were unable to stay the night, I laid on the bed (or tried to) long enough to know that getting up from it was nearly impossible. My son and partner did the same thing, because I worried I was being unfair. We all came to the same conclusion: the mattress was horrible. | My son (we had booked him into a room on the lower floor), rolled a water bottle along the floor, the two of us gobsmacked by the threatening angle\/s. In fact, the floors\/carpet were such a hilly mess, we could barely walk across the tiny room. It was like living inside of an Escher print. The discrepancy between the height of the bed at the bottom versus the top was shocking (we measured, incredulous), and the bare walls and cheap, fluorescent lights capped off the bleakness to such effect I felt close to heartbroken. | My son foraged on for two nights in his cramped room (we all foraged in to compare) below while we moved on, thanks to booking.com, to comparably exquisite surroundings. Throughout our stay in London and the Yorkshire Dales (we walked one of the trails) we stayed in six places, all of them terrific. And as much as I appreciated that the Ridgemount could refund only two of our four night reservation, given that the bed was unsittable, I think they ought to have refunded it all. (I knew, actually, as we waited into the front room to be admitted to our rooms, that things were askew, given that we practically fell into the sad chairs, whose springs must have died years ago.) | My son said that the breakfasts were edible and the people friendly, but that he was kept awake in his hot, street-level room by inebriated young people who lined the street in front of his room and who were guests of the Ridgemount Hotel.", "Location Of The Reviewer": "Toronto, Canada", "Date Of Review": "7\/5\/2013" }, { "Property_Name": "Mondrian London at Sea Containers", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "Weekend trip", "Review Text": "This was a truly fantastic, contemporary hotel with exceptional service.

We had a view of the street next to the hotel and of the hotel, The Royal Horseguards, opposite. The bedroom was tastefully decorated with an excellent mix of modern gadgets and a homely feel with the quality wood furniture. The wardrobe was a walk-in type, the bathroom was marble, with a shower wet-room, separate toilet and bidet, and a bath with a T.V. There were loads of bath amenities. The main T.V. had over 70 channels (you could purchase a film to watch as well but they were priced at \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd19 \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd which even by London standards is a bit of a joke!) and a Nespresso machine was in the corner. The whole area was spotlessly clean and all rooms had an interesting lighting arrangement with different controls for night lights and mood lighting. The air-con was very quiet and worked very well. | We chose not to eat in the two restaurants or book breakfast and order room service as, like the mini bar with snacks in our room, it was too expensive.

The floor contains from left to right, a steam room with peppermint aroma; next to the infinity swimming pool with reflective ceiling, then the Ice Fountain for the brave or foolish after the Sauna, the Sauna which is glass for a full 360 view, the Jacuzzi pool with four different jets and finally three heated marble loungers to relax on. In between are two atmospheric gas lights which highlight the black marble effect of the whole spa.

Non potevamo fare scelta migliore!!! Se cercate un Hotel PULITO, ECONOMICO, CHE INCLUDA LA COLAZIONE, CON WIFI GRATUITA, NEL CENTRO DI Londra il Rhodes Hotel fa al caso vostro. Ho scelto il Rhodes Hotel dopo tante ricerche fatte su Tripadvisor (noi italiani siamo molto esigenti)... alla fine questo Hotel mi ha convinta molto soprattutto per i commenti positivi fatti dagli altri utenti e dopo la mia esperienza sono stata pi\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd che felice di averlo scelto. L'Hotel si trova in una zona molto centrale della citt\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd una zona residenziale molto tranquilla ed elegante. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd Ricca di verde ma anche di Hotel, pub o ristoranti dove \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd possibile cenare o pranzare. Nelle vicinanze dell'Hotel c'\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd anche un minimarket e anche un negozio di souvenir per cui non avrete alcun problema perch\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd in zona c'\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd tutto. Con una breve camminata si arriva ad Hyde park e per quanto riguarda i trasporti...a pochi passi ci sono le fermate della metro di Paddington o Lancaster Gate (noi l'abbiamo sempre presa a Paddington). Nelle vicinanze dell'Hotel ci sono anche le fermate dei caratteristici pullman rossi per chi volesse osservare la citt\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd in superficie. in entrambi i modi in poco tempo si arriva nei luoghi di maggiore interesse della citt\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd. Per quanto riguarda l'Hotel siamo rimasti molto soddisfatti. \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd stato un soggiorno molto piacevole. Dico la verit\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd...ci aspettavamo il peggio perch\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd qui in Italia c'\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd il luogo comune che a Londra gli Hotel sono sporchi e poi perch\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd per email l'Hotel poich\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd era pieno ci aveva collocati nell' edificio annesso.

In pratica l'Hotel ha una struttura centrale con hall, camere e dove si fa colazione e poi ha un altro edificio che si trova nella strada dietro l'angolo dell' edificio centrale dell'Hotel dove ci sono solo altre camere. Noi eravamo capitati l\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd...ma la cosa non ci ha pesato minimamente perch\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd eravamo in vacanza e fare due passi x andare a fare colazione non \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd stato per nulla un problema. Siamo stati accolti benissimo...il ragazzo che lavorava alla hall ci ha subito dato il codice della wifi e poi ci ha accompagnati nella nostra stanza nell'edificio annesso. Non solo nell'edificio annesso ma anche con la camera nel seminterrato!!!!!!!!!!!!! noooo...anche qui pensavamo il peggio ma alla fine tutto ok.

It's not a 5 star by North American standards but really, the hotel is lovely and well situated. Breakfast was included and very good, the breakfast staff going out of their way to accommodate. The desk staff was very good but for one person. I had stayed here 7 years ago with my ex and we liked it then and it's been cleaned up since. The prices are high so expectations are high. You can't beat the location and overall this is a good hotel in a pricey city. | Now, the problems: I stayed at this hotel because I have a back issue and wanted to go to the adjacent spa. I'd planned on 10 spa visits for the 10 weekdays I was staying at the hotel (away each weekend). The first time I went to the spa I was disappointed. It's very small. The pool isn't that nice and for me a problem as it was just about waist high. I need a deeper pool for the exercises I do. The Rembrandt--all the Savora hotels in the chain, I believe--have a cellphone waiting in your room which you can carry around with you and call anyone in the UK and some other places too, like the US and Can. Take pix, get on the internet, all gratis. This is wonderful! Classy, in fact! The phone had an ad that the spa had a 'free' day and anyone can come on the Thursday. I stopped by 2 days before to make sure that the 'anyone' included hotel guests. The guy at the desk didn't know but would ask the manager and he would email me the next day. He did not email me. I stopped in again the evening of the next day. The manager was not there again but someone else, a supervisor, was there, so he called her. She said I couldn't come on the free day because I don't live in London. I said the ad did not say I had to live in London. And she told the guy at the desk to tell me that the promo was to find new members. Then her's became the 'everyone in the hotel will want to come' attitude. I asked if anyone else had inquired about it and no one had. The guy at the desk was very nice, saying if it had been him, he would have let me come. I was incensed. I'd planned on 10 visits at 6.50 pounds each so they would have made 65 pounds from my paid visits and I really thought that since I needed only the pool and not the gym equipment and only for 30 minutes that an exception could have\/should have been made, given that the fine print was not in the ad on the phone the hotel offers. This put me off so much I decided to not visit the spa again. If there's no goodwill, I don't want to support such a place. I mentioned this on my review sheet when I checked out for the weekend but no one got back to me about it. | Back again the next Sunday night, I was given a room 1\/2 the size of the one I'd had before. The rooms are booked by size, apparently. I went back down to the desk and asked the man on duty if I could have the room I had before and told him why--I had to crawl over the bed to get to the window to crack it for fresh air--there was NO space at the foot of the bed with a chair and my suitcase jammed in there. He said the other room was occupied. He didn't offer me anything else or even say tomorrow you can move. I felt disgruntled. This was not the room for which I had prepaid. The following morning I was doing a day trip and the cellphone had not been charged by the previous guest so I stopped at the front desk. The girl at the desk told me they would move my things to the room I'd had before. When I returned they had done that and I was very satisfied. | On my return, I went for dinner in the hotel restaurant and order the steak and fries, specifically asking for the steak to be rare and told the waitress I don't like meat that is too cooked. The steak came well done. When she came back to inquire how it was I told her this, she said she'd tell the chef and left. I plowed through the well done steak, half finished when she came back and said the chef was new (why this should matter, I don't know) and she could take it away and he'd cook another. I told her I was half done and I also had something I had to do so I couldn't wait for that. Any other restaurant would have either given me a discount or a free meal, but not this one--I paid for the steak and drink. | I left for the weekend and returned the following Monday. The desk automatically gave me my original room and told me so, and I was grateful for that--not the same man on the desk. | This is a nice hotel. Most of the staff are very friendly and helpful and really understanding as was the woman I spoke with about the size of the room when I was upset, and the guy at the desk in the spa. There are a few wrinkles they need to iron out at The Rembrandt. It's in better shape than 7 years ago physically, and almost everything works well, but having encountered 3 people in my 10 days at the hotel who were not responsive in the way they should be for this very expensive hotel by North American standards (perhaps not for London, though), these are problems that can be easily fixed. I wrote my issues down each time I checked out for the weekend but no one has contacted me. I hope The Rembrandt can iron out the wrinkles.

The American Bar is a traditional and quite famous cocktail bar which we visited more to say we had done so than through desire (I don't really drink). It feels like an old school gentlemans club with dark wood panelling, leather club chairs and a jazz pianist on the night we we there. | The room was large and well appointed with two queen beds, an office area, a seating area, large marble clad bathroom with superb shower and a separate dressing area. I was in an Edwardian style room but would like to return to compare it with one of the deco style rooms. | The one thing that made The Savoy outstanding rather than good was the service. The staff are all impeccably presented, always call you by name and I couldn't find fault even if I wanted to. They have the balance between formal and friendly just right which is a very difficult thing to do. At 29 I am younger than a lot of guests at many of the hotels I use and occasionally feel that I am being viewed with suspicion by the hotel staff, once even asked in quite a discouteous manner if I could show a doorman at The Berkeley my room key before he would allow me in (last time I stayed there obviously).

First impressions were fantastic, but for me the attention to detail is not quite there. | firstly the positives - the check in was hugely smooth; upon driving up to the entrance we were met immediately by a very friendly doorman and receptionist and show to our rooms - this despite it only being 12:30. You also couldn't fail to be impressed by the river view suite - the room is fantastic, kept immaculately with a stunning view. The suites also come with butler service which is incredible; our butler was so helpful you could not fault the level of service provided, in fact if you were to consider the room and the butler alone they would score a straight 5! | However even in the suite there just seems to be a few very small touches that are missing - there is a complementary beverage bar, yet the regular amenities were lacking - for example no cotton wool in the bathrooms and no slippers which just seemed a little unbecoming of any room in a five star hotel let alone a suite. The umbrella provided also broke within 5 minutes of use. Our other rooms were OK; air con a little noisy in one and the drainage not brilliant in the other, although to be fair we did not mention this to the hotel as it didn't particularly bother us. | The service also slips up in the rest of the hotel. We had made a reservation for the Savoy Grill and upon entering the restaurant were met by a lady with the most terrible attitude who informed us that our table was not yet ready (this despite it being the time of our reservation) and to come back in 10 minutes. When I suggested they could perhaps come and find us in the bar the lady repeated that we needed to return in 10 minutes - I have to say that the person who showed us to the bar following this exchange immediately offered to find us once our table was ready, but this initial experience dampened our views of the place. Another poor experience arose when requesting our car to be fetched from the valet parking, which took 25 minutes. The staff did apologise once chased and explained that the delay was caused by road closures on side streets due to New Years Day; however having walked in the area around the hotel extensively immediately before getting the car we knew this to be incorrect. | We all left really wanting to love the hotel, but all agreed we would only recommend if in a suite. It really would not take a lot to pull this up to a 5 rating, the grading is purely due to the lack of attention to detail around the edges. | In summary, if you want a room with a view over the river you cannot beat the Savoy - the check in staff, butlers and suites are fantastic.

Apparently the cheaper rates are due to the fact that the hotel is closing at Christmas for one year to undergo a refurbishment. Does it need a refurbishment? Probably is the answer but it isn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt tatty. More like faded but still impressive. | From the moment we walked through the doors we were made very welcome indeed. The doormen were attentive and eager to help. The reception staff were efficient and courteous (showed us to our room, happens infrequently these days). This was the standard for the whole stay. | The room was great if you like Art Deco. We do, and we loved it. From the curved doors to the best bathroom I think I have ever had in a hotel everything was just as I expected. Bathrobes, slippers quality shampoos and the like were also in the room. There was even a small stationary set in the desk. | The continental breakfast was very good indeed. Smoothies and mini muffins to start with. Orange juice on tap. An almost limitless choice of tea\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds and a basket of breads and pastries.

Service is top notch, and people are anxious to get into the sky bar Rumpus Room and even the ground floor Dandelyan Bar. | The Rumpus Room has great views and does have that party vibe, but the host station at the front is a bit daunting - it's a bit like St. Peter looking in his big book to see if he's willing to let you in. Everyone is very beautiful and stylized. | The Dandelyan is much more approachable with the apex of \"bespoke\" cocktails (which are inventive and pricey). | There were restaurants and food that I didn't try (actually I was there for a week and didn't even know about what they call \"The Den\"). There's a cinema on site that I also didn't visit. | So, onto the room. I had prepaid my booking, but upon arrival we were asked if we were interested in upgrading to a larger room with a view of the Thames. We agreed to pay for the upgrade - and while yes, the extra space was welcome (as we'd come from York, where our room was too small) - but I laughed when we walked in as the larger room came with no extra furniture to fill the space. | Guests are effectively left with a doorless closet (a drape hides the contents) - it's about the size of storage you'd find on a cruise ship, actually maybe less! There's absolutely no other furniture available to unpack. The close includes one rod and a small three drawer built in chest. But because the closet curtain opens to the right, the curtain gets in the way of the drawers when you are opening and closing them. | The well-sized bathroom includes shelves above the toilet (not exactly where I'd like to unpack my clothes). There are two hooks behind the door for provided robes, but no other hooks or racks to hang towels. And those are some towels. The bath sheets are six feet long and I felt like a hobbit when toweling off. | Glass-ware was plentiful, as well as a well-stocked mini-bar - though I doubt anyone is rushing to buy the special hotel candles with their trademarked \"lobby\" scent. | I have to call out Mondrian for any \"green\" practices they may preach. Every time housekeeping came for making up the room, or performing turn-down, all the lights in the room were turned on - as were every light in the bathroom. The room was set up with a room key slot that is supposed to turn off all lights when removed, but upon check-in, we discovered that someone had placed a folded paper card in there, where it remained all 8 days of our stay. Seems like a huge waste of energy. | So, the Mondrian, is super-stylized (the public areas are nice, I didn't like the depressing blue used in the rooms, or the smeared paint \"art\").

Yes, we had to pay up front with a cc but the booking was cancellable and refundable and still cheaper than their pay up front but not refundable rate and only made this booking a couple of weeks before our stay. | Looking at the hotels own web site - with its 100% rate guarantee- I approached the hotel to match it. | \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdon this occasion we are not able to match this rate offered by this online travel agent\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd | Then I sent them a copy of their own 100% Best Rate Guarantee promise. .... | So, WHAT does a 100% best rate guarantee mean? | \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdThe rate that you booked with - is a special members rate which requires full prepayment to obtain the discount\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd | No, it was just hotels.com ! | \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdThe rates that we offer on our website are offered to public and do not require payment in advance. | \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdOn this occasion as a goodwill gesture we will be able to match the rate with no prepayment \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd | \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd | Because we had paid upfront and their best rate guarantee did not apply. Hummmmm ?????? | The reason I wanted to go direct is that they advertise \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdpriority room upgrade \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd if you do book directly subject to availability) | So, I moved my booking direct with the hotel after they price matched. We had 2 rooms. On checking in - we were NOT offered an upgrade until I asked. They replied they were full which was not true because I had checked availability for that day already. We did get an upgrade on one of the rooms when I pointed this out - I shouldn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt have had to point this out !

Slightly bigger than the deluxe with the same walk in wardrobe which was a good size but the bed was hard and gave my husband a back ache. | Breakfast - we had full breakfast package. | Breakfast in the room was brought in exactly how you would expect in a 5* hotel on a trolley with a heated section. Why then - when there are two people only give 4 little breakfast pastries not even one of the same each? Yes, you have to tick if you want but at the Savoy we always get presented with the most beautiful and generous basket of delicious breakfast pastries . | Again corinthia. When my family went to the breakfast buffet - why would you even think of charging \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd2 for an extra something that should have been included in the buffet - are you so short of money? After all our 2 night stay including treatment each totalled almost \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd2,600 and that was with \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd150 taken off for a medical pedicure which nipped my toes and caused an infection. | The spa is beautiful but on a really warm day was far too hot and really unpleasant to sit by the small pool and enjoy - so I would say to use the spa during winter and not when the weather is lovely outside. | There actually is no outdoor space to sit if the weather is nice - no the lovely roof terrace you see on their web site is part of a suite! and probably that\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds the only way to get a great view over London from the hotel.

Thomas assisted us with our luggage most expertly. The evening meal on the Friday with family members of the wedding party, in a sectioned off part of the restaurant, was superb with all staff responding to our needs without any fuss.

The front door staff\/ bell porter staff (in particular, Lucas) remain incredible. Despite seeing a myriad of people each day, they remembered us, chatted with us and treated us like valued guests every time we entered and exited the hotel. Kudos to that team. They are a true asset to The Savoy. | 2. Aidan in The Savoy Grill looked after us incredibly well in The Savoy Grill. On prior visits, I've often felt like the staff constantly goes for the \"upsell\", which I understand in retail, but not in fine dining, but Aidan made us feel welcome and comfortable. | 3. The ladies running the desk in the American Bar are friendly, organized and definitely look after residents. We were seated in under five minutes, despite a queue. I firmly disagree with those negative reviews about the American Bar. I find it extremely well run, with fantastic cocktails and a team dedicated to making sure you enjoy your time. | 4. Part of the fun of The Savoy is dining in. That being said, regardless of the restaurant\/ bar, we were always made to feel comfortable by a team who asked if we were enjoying our stay, etc. These are the little things that make the The Savoy special. | 5. Most importantly, in room dining remains exceptional. The new menu is a treat (and they even make the chunky chips for me that I'm addicted to... despite them no longer being on the menu), it always arrives in the time designated (breakfast as well as dinner) and arrives hot. The in room dining staff is always professional. | So now for the not so positive... | 1. Our dinner booking in the Savoy Grill was lost. Kudos to the manager of the Grill, as he found us a table with no fuss at all, despite the room being full, but I have a confirmation from concierge saying the booking had been made. I'm not sure where it fell through, but it did. | 2. This is a small point, but despite emailing prior to our arrival and re-confirming with reception upon our arrival, we did not receive all of the supplements with our Sunday papers. We did on the Saturday, but on the Sunday, we received them with The Times, not with The Telegraph. I understand this is a minor point, but we look forward to relaxing with the weekend papers. And, I must say that it was odd to be charged for The Telegaph each day (The Times, apparently, was complimentary), as we had not been charged during our other stays. This isn't a big deal, but for a luxury hotel, little luxuries like a second newspaper should be gratis in my opinion. Or at least provide the full supplements that were asked for. | 3. This is really the crux of the matter. I'm not sure if The Savoy is cutting back, or if they were too busy to care, but I felt like our arrival experience was most definitely lacking from other stays. We booked transport from them as we had on prior stays. This time, however, there was no one outside of the hotel to greet us. A doorman asked for our name and showed us through to reception. The girl who checked us in was perfectly nice, told us our room wasn't quite ready, but that she would ring me when it was (and she did in less than an hour, which we were grateful fo) and then asked if it was our first stay at The Savoy. I told her that it wasn't (I would assume they would know who was a returning guest, but I guess it doesn't matter to them). She then asked if it was our first stay in London. I understand I was jet lagged, but how could it possibly be our first stay in London if we've already stayed at The Savoy? But I digress. We booked through AMEX FHR but this was never mentioned, nor were the perks that came with booking this way, nor were we given anything to notate this. When we came back to retreive our keys, the same girl asked if we wanted to be shown our room. We said yes. She stepped outside of the room we were checked in at and pointed to the lifts. Thanks for that, I know where the lifts are. Our room was a deluxe king. I'm not sure if there was an upgrade available, since we weren't given any FHR info at check in. It was small, with the only seating being the bed, a desk chair and a setee of sorts at the end of the bed. We did ask for early check in, so I can't be too picky regarding the room, however, knowing that we were staying for eight nights, I would have thought that they could have chosen a room with seating. However, as I did request early check in, this may have been the only room available. I'm hoping this is the case. It was spotless, although scuff marks are bginning to show. But here's the thing. There was no welcome note, no amenity, no nothing to say \"we hope you enjoy your stay\", etc. I know it's silly, but as a luxury hotel, it's the little things that make the difference. | A holiday like this is a treat for us, and it's something we look forward to. We like to feel like our business is appreciated. During this stay, the little things amounted to us feeling like we could have been anywhere. | Will we return to The Savoy? I'm sure we will. It's conveniently located for the theatre and we genuinely enjoy dining there. But the overall impression left us feeling less than valued, almost as if the hotel is cutting corners.

Staff are not the most pleasant either and be warned there's an automatic 12.5% service charge even if you go to the bar yourself! | For the reasons of this bad experience we did not use the other bars nor restaurants in the hotel. | Customer service wise we were not amazed.

The refurb itself was met with mixed reaction. I personally thought they had destroyed many of the former magnificently impressive rooms by painting over the mahogany paneled walls with a choice of either blue yellow or green paint....it was a mistake. Luckily a few of the rooms retained a style which was more akin to the old Lanesborough and so i always opt for these...i.e. rooms with calmer colours. The lower floors have the better rooms as they have high ceilings and some of the views over the Wellington Arch or Hyde Park are great. The food is excellent amd room service can be ordered via a touch screen ipad type device which saves the pain of having to listen to your entire order being repeated back to you on the phone. However recently they have cut back their in room menu considerably so there is less choice than there used to be a few months ago which is a great shame. A lot of the great dishes have gone. No idea why. Recommend the mille feuille for dessert as its spectacular. Service is very good indeed. From my pov the butler service is a bit pointless....i never have anything i need them to do other than get me some fresh ice. But it does make you feel well cared for i admit. Lucikly the spirit and soul of the Lanesborough appears to be returning. The staff are all smiling again from what i can see. Post refurb the new owners im sorry to say appear to have installed a team at the hotel who just didnt seem to get it. Now however its coming back with style and as a result I am returning there more often. Its a friendlier happier place again and more homely and comfortable as a result. But still very high end as an experience. What does it need to be the best in London? Simple...a refurb.

Location was perfect -- right across the street from the Victoria & Albert Museum and only five minutes walk from the South Kensington tube station. I asked for a quiet room and early check-in and got both. In fact, the room was one of the quietest I've ever had -- the only sounds were the occasional closing of other doors (and I am very, very noise-sensitive).

We both had enough room for our clothes and suitcases and weren't tripping over each other. The shower was strong and the water temperature also just fine. The room was neither too hot nor too cold since we learned from housekeeping how to control the heat. My friend loved the soft featherbed, but it was too much for me and , when I asked, the maid gave me a normal sheet and blanket right away. We were pleased to find that a full English breakfast was included (unlike many other hotels we had considered) and It was a good or better than what I've had in other English and European hotels.

Bring a good hair dryer and plan on using it in the room, not the bathroom. 3) There was no Internet connection in our room. When we got to the hotel, we learned that the only Internet connections are in the Executive rooms, and that if you want to connect to the Internet, you have to go to the lobby and pay for a connection either on your computer or their machines.

There is a bus stop right next to the hotel for bus 266, which runs every 6-8 min on weekdays and will take you to North Acton tube station on the Central line (walking there takes about 20-25 min). From there it is easy to get to the main sights in the city center. Obviously this location isn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt perfect, but considering the prices you pay for a stay in a more central area it\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds really quite acceptable. Get an Oyster card from the shop across the road from the hotel to pay for public transportation. | We arrived late at night (about a quarter to one) which was no problem because the reception desk is manned 24 hours a day (we did specify our arrival time during booking to make sure we would not be considered a no-show). Our room was barely large enough for a bed and a small excuse for a desk (it could just about fit our laptop), but it came complete with a small coffee\/tea making facility, a large locker (big enough for the laptop), a flat-screen television and a slightly foul-smelling fridge.

Especially the toilet area could\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdve done with a few extra inches of space: I am quite tall and actually had to sit slightly sideways on the toilet to accommodate my legs. | Service was generally good, with staff at the reception desk always available for advice (which is especially welcome since there was no hotel information in the room). There is wireless internet which is supposedly available for a fee, but we got it for free. Reception desk was also helpful when we were kept up at night by someone in a neighboring room having the television on quite loudly: they went up and asked them to turn it down a bit, which had an immediate effect and allowed us to get back to sleep.

A large television was loudly showing BBC News. The selection of food was minimal, even for a free continental breakfast in a budget hotel. All products looked cheap as well. Still, it was enough to get us started in the morning. | To summarize: book this hotel for its value compared to quality.

This is an ultra-modern hotel (a similar style to the nearby Andaz) with every amenity needed. | Check-in was seamless and the free upgrade to a Deluxe room was welcome (this was a Saturday when the City of London is pretty dead so the hotel was very quiet - I'm guessing an upgrade during the week is less likely. However, the upgrade was a nice touch). | The corridors to the room are equally modern and chic, well signposted and signal the high standard of things to come. The corridors are however incredibly hot but I guess this is necessary for some chillier guests! | The room could hardly have been more impressive. Spacious, beautifully appointed and yet 'homely'. Rather than long, tedious descriptions, here's the highlights: | - fabulous, large bed with lovely crisp, fresh bedding (perhaps a few too many cushions for my liking but you 'cushion lovers' out there will be overjoyed!) | - working area with impressively stylish and comfortable swivel chair | - luxurious sofa with large TV and blueray player | - Bose ipod docking station | - choice of lighting from spots to sidelights to standards | - plenty of wardrobe space that would be adequate for a few days | - loads of accessories such as hair dryer, shoe cleaner, iron and board etc. etc. | - coffee machine, kettle, water, range of coffee, hot chocolate, tea | - fridge\/mini-bar | - Elemis shampoos etc. | The contemporary bathroom had a lovely, large, double-ended bath, large sink and a very spacious walk-in shower. The shower was powerful which is a must for me! | There was also a step up to a glass door leading to a spacious balcony (it was a little cold at this time of year to make use of this but would be great addition in the summer). | The furnishings throughout were all very stylish and modern including such things as the blinds, the chrome fittings and tiling in the bathroom. | Although I didn't make use of them, I even thought the robes, slippers and bath duck (!) were all nice touches. There was also a knock on the door in the evening for the 'turn-down' service which again I declined but I was given a relaxing spray for my pillows - again a nice touch (I did wish afterwards I had used the 'turn-down' service just to see what is done with the mountain of cushions!) | Also nice to see that there was no, pointless bible anywhere to be found in the room! | The only, very small niggle for me was the lack of windows that open. I'm not keen on air conditioning and much prefer fresh air (well as fresh as it can be in good old polluted London). I therefore had to leave the door to the balcony open throughout the night which wasn't an issue for me but may annoy some guests. | I didn't use the bar or restaurant as I prefer to go out to get a walk and some more of that toxic-filled London air while interacting with grumpy Londoners but I did have a peek. They both looked to be of the same high standard as the rest of the hotel. | I'm not sure how a four-star hotel can reach the dizzy heights of five stars in the UK but for me the Apex should have achieved this already.

The same manager, Andrew, spoke to us as we were leaving and explained he would hand it over to the night manager and a room had been set aside for us should we want to change rooms after we returned from dinner. However that wasn't necessary and we continued to enjoy a pleasant stay. | I specifically mention this slight issue with the room because for me the problem with the air-conditioning and the subsequent sauna setting for the room were dealt with professionally, efficiently and reasonably by hotel management and I am pragmatic to understand that mistakes get made but for me, it's the way they are resolved which is the true test of customer service and something that The Dorchester did not fail on. | A special thanks to Andrew, who's surname I have forgotten, but he went to check our room while were at dinner and left a note of apology and some petit fours which was a nice gesture and the way he dealt with the whole incident was great.

The \"hotel\" appeared to be run by one man who was not there in the morning. We had booked it in the hope of dropping our luggage there before returning a rental car to central London, having arrived on the M4; this was not to be. Once we did get there in the evening dragging our luggage on the tube and bus, the first hint that things were not looking good was the owners' insistence that we had to inspect the rooms before paying - in order that we could not complain later. (There was loads of grime in the bathrooms which obviously were not cleaned as often as in most hotels. Anyway; we had nowhere else to go. We were stuck.) We knew to expect basic; the price being the same as an Ibis Budget we had stayed in on the south coast. But there seemed to be lots of extra cost cutting - in two rooms the fans did not work but were just ornamental; perhaps to save electricity, like the non-functioning bedside lights in one room. The owner himself was friendly enough in his bumbling way; he did unblock one basin when the water did not drain. We had two rooms; the one facing the street was noisy and I could only sleep with ear plugs. In the morning, breakfast was self service. Literally. There were no staff on hand at breakfast. One had to figure out everything oneself -like finding a clean plate, as many of them were not properly washed, finding milk in the fridge, making cordial (not real juice), instant coffee or tea and toast. At the end you had to stack your dirty dishes in a single small sink out the back, if you did not want to inflict even more trauma on any poor fellow traveller who arrived later by leaving a table dirty. There was a lot of cameraderie among the guests; we exchanged jokes about how we had never come across anything so bad, and discussed what worked or did not work in our individual rooms. Check-out consisted of putting one's keys in a slot; the owner was nowhere to be seen, the \"desk\" was unmanned in the morning. The most enjoyment was chatting with the other guests at breakfast, and imagining possible Tripadvisor entries: Tired of the bland corporatism of Ibis Budget?

Property in class of Ritz\/Four Seasons. Helpful staff, can't do enough for you. Had an executive King room. Large space, walk in closet with two separate areas to hang clothes\/lots of storage drawers & shelves\/built in safe. Bedroom itself is large with sitting area, excellent lighting with dedicated spot reading lights in the ceiling. Has refrigerator that can be used by guests. Leave chocolates daily. Bed comfortable with only decent pillows (tended to flatten out quickly). Bathroom great: large deep soaking tub, two headed walk-in shower, private commode, two sinks. Only negative is nowhere to plug in hair dryer-kind of strange. Housekeeping service always excellent. | Were able to make reservations about 6-8 months ahead of time. Took advantage of 1\/2 price sale. We couldn't afford and even if we could, don't think we would pay over $1000\/night for a hotel room despite how superb this one is. But, were able to reserve for just over $500 which for a splurge, is well worth it. | Location is excellent, just south of covent garden area. Walking distance to Trafalgar square and theater district. Adjacent to Embankment underground station and bridge over Thames so can walk easily to Waterloo Station. | Tips, especially for first time visitors; | (1)If flying into Heathrow, get Heathrow Express tickets ahead of time. Takes 15 minutes to get to Pennington Station, then hop on Bakerloo underground line south to Embankment. Made it to and from airport in total about 40 minutes and very easy. Best way to get back and forth to airport by far. | (2)When exiting Embankment can go straight or turn left. Do the latter, turn left and walk to street. Bridge over Thames directly to left and Hotel Corinthia right across street to right. Couldn't be easier. | (3)If planning on quick breakfast before heading out, walk across bridge over Thames, go up ramp and turn right. Le Pain Quotidien is a great breakfast place, lots of options, quick service, fresh food. Can then go to Waterloo Underground or rail depending on what days plans are. | (4)Get Oyster cards ahead of time on-line. Makes using Underground easy and quick. Also easy to add to card if needed. We put on 30 pounds initially and added another 16. Thats all we needed for the 8 days and lots of trips. Also can use Oyster card to Hampton court; no need to wait in line at Waterloo to get tickets. But, do need tickets to Windsor Castle, or at least we got them and weren't told otherwise. | (5)As to latter two places, worth day trip. Takes about 45 minutes to Windsor and 35 minutes to Hampton Court. Both fun visits and also ticketed ahead of time. Easy to walk to when exiting train at end of line. Can either walk to Waterloo Station from hotel or take underground. | (6)Easy walking tour is over bridge to London Eye, then walk to House of Parliment & Westminster Abbey. Then to Churchill War Rooms, then Tate Britain. Full, fun day. | (7)Best map we found for the London area is the one in Frommers guide in back that you can tear out. Easy to use, nice size, fits in back pocket, made on good stock so doesn't tear and shows all underground stations and places to visit. | Wonderful first trip to London.

For example, during our stay from the unusually friendly bellmen who, like their captain, Ed, to the reception staff, all knew our names and gave us theirs. Nice touch. The concierges were diligent in managing our \"must do\" tourist lists as well as tracking down a book I was tasked to deliver for a birthday gift. | The rooms are very stylish and functional with sophisticated art and color palette, efficient design and lavish materials.

Fresh skids already in the toilet bowl was the least of my worries; climbing into bed revealed scratchy sheets & a lumpy sexed out mattress, which in turn caused me to have the worst sleep of my life. | There was no soap provided in the room, but in hindsight I don't think there was any form of soap anywhere on the premises. I only noticed this when already in the shower which was a bit annoying, as my left arm fell victim to the shower curtain: this polyester sheet was absolutely caked in slimy mould, I was cleaner before having a shower for Christ's sake. The whole experience was traumatic. | The next morning the dreaded 'continental breakfast' (which, might I add, I avoided after seeing the food prep area). The fridge was covered in mould and there was greasy pans left on the cooker since what looked like 1998. You literally get a couple of slices of toast & drink. That's it. I opted for a glass of 'orange juice' before leaving, and even this made my stomach churn; it wasn't by any stretch of the imagination orange juice. It was very VERY cheap orange squash, and when I put the glass up to my mouth I got a smell that resembled bum holes, and a taste of disappointment and bacteria. | The only positive part of this stay was the bloke on reception, friendly but not the faked retail friendly you get in shops, him and the women in the god awful breakfast room\/A to Z Restaurant - so if for some reason you end up there by accident say hi, turn around, run to West Acton tube station (trains only run every half hour or so from Acton Main Line), and don't look back.

The first time, approximately 7 months ago there were a couple of minor issues which I put down to the hotel being new and coming together, but I am sorry to say I was very disappointed with my last trip. | I want to love this place. It's in a fabulous location, the hotel decor is ultra-stylish and the beds are to die for, I would go as far as to say the most comfortable I have ever slept in. This place could be AMAZING.... So why the low score. | The most important thing, in my opinion when it comes to staying in a hotel of any category is the level of service you receive. | Firstly, I spoke to the concierge on both occasions I stayed prior to my visit. The first time my dinner reservation had not been made when we arrived at our chosen venue (this may have been the restaurant so I cannot entirely blame concierge). The second time I found the whole experience hard work as the person couldn't understand what I was saying (I am english).

We called down to house keeping to see if they could collect a white shirt off the the chair in our room and have it ironed and returned by a certain time. We returned to our room after shopping and the unironed shirt remained untouched on the chair. My blue & yellow dress which had been on the bed had however disappeared and re-emerged in the wardrobe all in wrapping. This had obviously been the item they had ironed. Hilarious as it did not in the slightest require ironing and how can they get a blue and yellow dress on the bed mixed up with a white shirt on a chair? I must note though that they did come back up and the problem was rectified. | Breakfast was a disaster and quite painful. Cold eggs, maple syrup instead of chocolate sauce for pancakes which they eventually replaced, after the other 3 diners had finished. Tea poured before it had brewed then ages to replace a cup. Staff disinterested an unapologetic. Then they tried to charge us for the appalling experience when breakfast was included in our room rate.

We arrived and had to wait to be seated for a minute or so, to be expected and nothing wrong with that. Had a great table, Thames Foyer looks stunning and atmosphere is brilliant. However, after we sat down and the service begun, it went downhill from there. We go for afternoon tea at a different hotel every couple of weeks just to try out different things and this was the first time we heard the phrase \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdno, we can\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt do that\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd. We always order one afternoon tea to share between us as we find it to be a lot of food; this has never been a problem, until The Savoy. We really found it difficult to comprehend that this would pose such a problem. We spoke to another colleague, who was a little more helpful and said that in normal practise they don\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt do that but he would do it for us. Then we received two of everything anyway. We just wanted one of everything to share, can\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt be that difficult surely. It has to be said that after the whole thing we did half understand what they meant with this and we offered to pay for both but it was sort of forced as they were serving us as if we ordered two. On top of this we found the staff to lack a bit of communication and consistency. We were served tea, and then our cups refilled, great, but as an example one server filled our cups, and then literally less than one minute a different server came and filled (what they could) again. Then at one point we had empty cups for at least 5 minutes. It has to be said that the food was great, as expected. Unlike other hotels, they don\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt clear as you eat, we had dirty plates left on the stand for a long time. Also the sugar bowl was so far in the corner that I couldn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt reach it, as my partner was elsewhere she couldn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt get it for me. Found the staff not too smiley either, it\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds amazing how much smiling staff makes a difference. Even if they don\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt want to be at work, let\u00ef\u00bf\u00bds face it, who does, but at least they could pretend properly. Male toilets very disproportionate, 14 or so urinals and 2 claustrophobic cubicles (sorry to talk about it but it is a bit dense). We then received the check without even asking, with no pen. We decided to go to the bar to try that out, transferred the check there and had to wait 20 minutes for a table. Host at the bar was very friendly, and so were the rest of the staff in the bar to be fair, but just very slow. It must have taken at least 20 minutes to get our drinks. The people on the table next to us arrived 10 minutes later and received their drinks sooner that we did. Cocktails were brilliant though. Bar snacks were the worst we\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdve experienced, felt stale and were boring. So we left liking The Savoy product, but found ourselves not craving to return because of the staff. This is all based on Afternoon Tea and the Beaufort Bar, this is not to say that if we stayed there it would be the same. The problem is we don\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt really want to find out anymore.

Coffee shops and restaurants (which there are plenty) are typically open on weekdays only (and presumably cater to 'the suits'). I imagine it's quite lively on weekdays, but on weekends, you'll likely want to take the brief (under 3 minute) walk to the Moorgate underground station, which will take you someplace more crowded, fast. | That said, the hotel is in a safe and clean neighbourhood with a pleasing mix of (a few) nice old buildings and (a lot of) really modern, bank-headquarters-type skyscrapers. The staff are very friendly, helpful and enthusiastic. The room we were in (standard double bedroom on the fourth floor) was just amazing. Very spacious, clean, and what I tend to call 'designy'. A great bed, plenty of pillows, attractive and functional furniture and fittings, and a truly fantastic bathroom with a huge shower. The one downside was that the water didn't drain properly, but this was fixed promptly by an apologetic staff.

The place was suitably Christmassy but not overbearingly so, in fact it even took me back to the grandiose feel of yesteryear in a most modern way.

There is a spa but that's not for me and I believe there was a gym but again that's not my thing.

We were extremely happy and would recommend the hotel to everyone. As we were very jetlagged (traveling from the west coast of the US), we kept waking up at odd hours, starving. The Corinthia has 24-hour room service -- and by that they mean _full_ room service. The first two nights of our stay we were starving by 3 or 4 in the morning, and asked if our breakfast could be delivered early. A full cooked breakfast arrived, piping hot, within 20 minutes! It was served with a smile AND a lovely glass globe with an orchid bloom in it (little elegant touches such as that are found everywhere in the hotel). I think it's pretty darned impressive for a hotel to turn out a perfect 3-minute poached egg via room service at 3am. | The rooms are gorgeous -- the decor is modern yet elegant and inviting. The public areas of the hotel are also truly lovely, although we didn't have much time to enjoy them (our schedule was packed). Our first room was right by the elevators, and I was concerned about noise. Don't worry, promised the front desk clerk. Our rooms are very well-insulated. How right she was!! We couldn't hear any elevator-related noise at all (and I have scary bat-like hearing). In fact, if I was brushing my teeth and my husband was in the bedroom, we couldn't hear one another through the partially-closed partition doors that separated the two rooms. The only problem was the windows -- our first room looked out onto the street, and the windows are not well-insulated, so the traffic noise (delivery trucks really start doing their thing around 2:30am) bothered me. We ended up switching to an inner courtyard room, and that did the trick. No more 3am breakfasts after that. :o) | Something else that really matters to me, as a frequent traveler, is the gym. The Corinthia's gym is really something else. In addition to a very complete array of cardio and weight-training equipment, they also have a power-plate and a pully-system machine. Most importantly to me, they had everything I needed for a good mat pilates workout (balls, bosu, foam rollers, etc.). The gym is open 24 hours by secure access, and there are security camera everywhere, so I felt very comfortable as a woman exercising alone at 3am. I'm only sorry that our schedule did not leave me enough time to see or sample the spa facilities, which I am sure are extraordinary, if the rest of the hotel is any indication. | The hotel's location was perfect -- steps away from the Tube, and a brief walk away from the Old Vic. The neighborhood is safe and clean. The hotel staff are very, very helpful. Oh -- did I mention that check-in and check-out is rolling, to accomodate those flying in and out at odd hours?

As if it needs a good cleaning. We wanted something simple one evening as we were tired. My wife's spaghetti bolognese sauce was awful. I can make better myself. The chef did nothing to make it \"restaurant quality\" as the \"Masterchef\" judges like to say. My fish and chips were nearly inedible. The chips were oily slugs at the bottom of my plate. The fish was mostly soggy batter. | One thing really annoyed me and that was they added 8% VAT to the bill, and not to the prices on the menu. I never saw another place do that. Value added tax is supposed to added in the price of a material. They were being TRICKY here. They also added a service charge so make sure you don't double pay a tip so we ended up paying over $60 with a 20% tip and tax surcharge. | This is a very bad restaurant attached to what should be a major hotel in the heart of London.

Small bed: I mean, you're charging \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd1600 a night for a one bed suite and providing just a double bed? One of us had to spend a night on a sofa in the living room - not ideal. | 2. Old iPhone dock: We were planning to use an iPhone dock but it was with the old 30-pin connector. When we asked if they have any adapter for a new iPhone - they offered to buy one for \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd40... \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd40? It costs \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd25 in Apple Store, by the way! | 3. Late check out: We have asked to have a late check out as I've got a meeting in the morning but they sent us a very late notice at 6pm on the day before checking out that it won't be possible and we had to move out at 12pm so I cancelled the meeting. | 4. Breakfast: The breakfast itself was great - there are a few options to choose from: English, Continental, Chinese and Japanese. We've got a free breakfast and asked if we can get a Chinese or Japanese one (they cost a bit more than the English and Continental ones though) - a lovely lady at the Thames Foyer advised that it's not possible.

The hotel's location is perfect! It is directly across from the Victoria & Albert Museum and the Natural History Museum, and it is about two blocks from the South Kensington Underground station, which makes it a breeze to get around the city. It is also within walking distance of several attractions. We easily walked from the hotel to Buckingham Palance and Westminster Abbey, which is a great way to see the shopping area around Harrod's and the parks and monuments around the palace, among other sites. There is also a great little Italian restaurant, Orsini, about two doors down from the hotel's entrance. We had dinner there the night we arrived and the night before the we left - the best meals we had all during the trip! | | So, as you can guess, the hotel's location was my favorite thing about it. That being said, the hotel was otherwise quite nice. It has boutique hotel feel. We arrived around 9:30 am after an overnight flight and, as expected, our room was not ready. We were told it was guaranteed for 2 pm, so after checking our luggage at the hotel, we dragged ourselves around for the next few hours as we tried to stay awake. They did offer use of the spa to shower and rest, but we decided to wait for the room. Once 2 pm came, I was delighted to find how nice the room was. I booked the executive double. It was updated and larger than I'd expected. It actually had a queen bed. The room was very clean and housekeeping did a great job each day. One odd issue was that the bed coverings had no sheet to cover with, only the heavy duvet. I asked about this at the front desk, but the person I spoke with seemed to have no idea what I wanted or was talking about. However, she did contact housekeeping and we returned to find two additional sheets folded and left on the bed for our use. Another issue is that we could not figure our how to control the temperature in our room. We ended up being very warm the first night, which is what prompted me to ask about the missing sheet. I never inquired about the thermostat; we just left a window open and enjoyed the cool night air. (We had a third floor room.) We were also awakened one morning by the fire alarm and had to evacuate. This was around 7 am. Luckily, our room was at the end of a hallway right next to the fire escape. We stood outside about 10 minutes. One fire truck arrived, quickly left, and we were allowed back in. Apparently, and fortunately, there was no fire, We never found out the reason for the fire alarm. | The hotel also provides a breakfast buffet each morning as part of your stay. That was a great convenience, especially as we ususally had no time to stop for another meal until the evening! We skipped the buffet a couple of days for the sake of variety and when we had to be somewhere very early; the burffet starts at 7 or 7:30 am, I believe. | Finally, I did not notice any children at the hotel while we were there. My husband says there were a few. The clientel appeared to consist of mostly couples vacationing or business travelers. The night before we left, I asked the concierge to book a taxi for our ride to the airport. When we came down the morning of our departure, the driver was in the lobby awaiting us.

I arrived a quite early in the morning and the hotel did their best to check me in around 10 AM. Check in staff were quite attentive and professional and I was also quite impressed with the Concierge since I sent them a list of top London restaurants a week before my arrival and I received confirmations for all of the 7 restaurants within 2 hours of sending my email. | With regards to rooms, I stayed in a King Deluxe room, which was spacious with a nice bathroom with strongest water pressure I ever seen, but I think the rooms need renovation sometime soon. | In general, the hotel has a high standard of service and the Spa is also amazing. The only setback in this hotel is the promenade, which is the sitting area in the Lobby. Firstly, they ask you, if you are having lunch or afternoon tea and if not they wouldn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt bother to give you a table. I invited guests there a couple of times for lunch and in both times, I was given the bill without asking for it in a very rude manner. When I asked, they said that the table was booked for other guests. What was surprising is that I came back to the same table 45 minutes later and it was empty and there were plenty of other tables empty. This was very disappointing from a hotel that claims to be one of the best in London. | A couple of other minor points, I ordered one banana for breakfast and was charged 10 pounds for the banana. In addition, they charged french-fries separate from any sandwich you ordered, which was the first time I have seen this ever. The issue here is not money (My bill was \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd5,000, but since the guest is paying a hefty amount of money, the hotel shouldn\u00ef\u00bf\u00bdt give them the feeling that they are being overcharged unnecessarily. | With the exception of the promenade issue, the rest are minor issues and I would still call this hotel one of the best in London, if not the best.

We had a family room (one double and two twins) on the basement floor towards the back of the hotel. We did have to share a bathroom, but with only one other room.

The breakfast area was near our room, so we just woke up and got dressed and went to eat. The food is served to you and the menu included a traditional English breakfast. The ham (bacon) was the best I had for our stay in England. The service was fast and the servicers kind. | The location of the Ridgemount is great. There are two stations nearby-Goodge Street and Russel Square. A bus stop is just about a block away, too. Trifalgar Square was a good 15-20 minute walk. The British Museum is nearby, too. There are pubs and stores all around the hotel. We found the owners to be very informative of London. They had binders of information for whatever we asked. They give great directions and opinions about anything you want to do. We were able to buy tickets to a sight seeing tour for discount, so ask them about anything you want to do.

It is fitted into a corner and is to tiny that I could cover it with the palm of one hand. To compound the problem, a disproportionately large shelf is fitted right above it so there was no way to bend over the sink fully. I didn't want to swamp the bathroom so I had to wash my face in the shower and barely managed to brush my teeth at the sink. The towels provided were small (just enough to wrap around my sz8 frame) and seemed grimy. I used them nonetheless as I didn't bring my own towels. | I understand that space is a premium in London and I think the room could be comfortable enough simply by putting more thought into the furnishings. It appeared that the fittings were meant for a larger room but squeezed into a single one. How much storage space can one person need right? A mirror against the wall above the table\/desk replacing the large shelf would make the room appear more spacious. Ditto the shelf above the sink. | There is full coffee and tea making facilities in the room and one thing I liked about the room was that it had it's own air-conditioning unit so I was able to control the temperature. | Facilities | They provide a continental breakfast free of charge. Not a large selection but I'm not particular about food as long as it fills me so I was fine with what was offered. Those with more voracious appetites or want a bit of variety can opt for a cooked English breakfast for \u00ef\u00bf\u00bd3. | There is a computer with internet facilities outside the breakfast room which you can use free of charge. Of course, do be mindful that other guests may wish to use it to. I generally try to keep within a 10-15 minutes limit. | Maps and attraction brochures are available at the reception area. | There are no lifts. My room was on the third floor and there were many flights of stairs to climb. It's not a problem for me but might be for those with mobility issues. | Surroundings | The location is the best thing about the hotel. It's about 2 minutes walk from Paddington Station and less than 10 minutes to Hyde Park. There is a bus stop just slightly further down the road. | Value For Money | The price is reasonable by London's standards. | I wish I could say I liked the hotel and found it comfortable but I didn't.

In essence, we were there simply for the experience. We stayed on a Sunday night when rates are a little cheaper and, if you are lucky, packages are available that include dinner and breakfast. Although, for these two poorly paid public sector provincials, our room rate seemed a small fortune, we were under no illusions that we were handing over much less cash than other guests in the hotel. So we fully expected to be escorted to a broom cupboard in the basement. Therefore, we were astonished and delighted to be given a sizeable pad that was bright and charming, which gave us views over Waterloo Bridge and down the Thames towards Canary Wharf. We could not fault it. | We had decided we would stay in the hotel for the entire 22 hours that we had available to us. We therefore spent the afternoon swimming in the hotel pool, lazing around on poolside recliners and exploring the hotel. It was the most relaxing and unhurried few hours I have ever spent in London. | We had dinner at Simpsons in the Strand. It did seem to take some time for us to be seated and served food, by which time I was very hungry indeed. However, once the courses started coming they didn't seem to stop and I was soon on the cusp of bursting. The food was excellent. Unbeknown to me, my partner had told The Savoy, at the point of booking, that we were staying as part of my 40th birthday celebrations. The staff duly noted this, found me and presented with me a special pudding whilst the pianist played Happy Birthday. Given my birthday was some months previous, I was initially convinced they had made a mistake but now I realise it is all part of an amazing attention to detail. | I was still feeling pretty full when breakfast time came around next morning. Nonetheless, I was not to be defeated. Again, we were given generous portions and made to feel very welcome by the staff who talked to us and made sure we had everything we wanted. It was wonderful. | We had enjoyed ourselves so much we were sad to leave. It is substantially more expensive than any hotel we would normally choose. Nonetheless, for that extra money, we were given a very different experience and therefore we did not leave feeling that we had been ripped off. It was particularly noticeable that the hotel had plenty of staff willing and able to attend to the needs of guests. This contrasts greatly with the norm in the cheaper hotel chains around the country. It wasn't absolutely faultless but any problems, once reported, were sorted immediately.

And yes the mini bar is just not worth it | Room service - efficient and polite but the food was disappointing both in quality and taste | Bathroom - shower pressure was it great but otherwise fine | View - lovely | Overall - expensive and disappointing for what was delivered. Has the promise to be something more but quality needs to be invested in. Would recommend One Aldwych instead of this hotel. | Top top - check your bill in detail as there were several mistakes and the combination of some items including vat and others not made it difficult to explain the charges for the check out", "Location Of The Reviewer": "London, United Kingdom", "Date Of Review": "12\/11\/2016" }, { "Property_Name": "The Rembrandt", "Review Rating": 4, "Review Title": "Comfy!", "Review Text": "Great hotel, excellent food in restaurant, clean and comfortable room, a little pricy, but the area is excellent.

I want to give more stars to Ridgemount Hotel!", "Review Text": "The Ridgemount Hotel gave me outstanding value for money! The location is really convenient, and the street where the hotel locates in is not a dodgy street, and I felt safe to go back to the hotel in the evening. My room was a single room with a washbasin, and I shared a shower room with another guests. The room is absolutely clean. The building itself is not new, however they keep it so clean, and I was very happy. They provide face towels (small and big) and they are changed every day. My room was on the ground floor, and facing the street, but it was not that loud in the evening. I enjoyed using the internet in my room with my laptop, because they have wireless internet connection. The strength of the signal may vary depending on where you are, but if you do not have signal, you can go to the common room and you can use the internet. There is also a computer in the common room. There is a TV, a hair dryer, and a small wordrobe in the room. There is a telephone as well, but I am not sure if you can really use it. There are breakfast rooms downstars. They serve full breakfast, and they staff were very quick and very helpful. The staff were always very helpful and really friendly. I will definitely stay in the Ridgemount Hotel again if I will ever visit London in the future. I really want to give them more than 5 stars, but TripAdvisor rating does not have more than that... I can definitely recommend the Ridgemount Hotel to anybody who would like to enjoy the location and great value for money.", "Location Of The Reviewer": "Istanbul, Turkey", "Date Of Review": "2\/26\/2009" }, { "Property_Name": "Ridgemount Hotel", "Review Rating": 4, "Review Title": "Nice clean place for those on a budget", "Review Text": "I chose this hotel after reading the mostly good reviews. I wasn't disappointed. The staff were very helpful with travel advice. The room was clean but definitely not luxurious. I stayed in a room with a single (twin) bed on the top floor. Hauling the luggage up the stairs was not easy but I got it done. It was pretty hot on the top floor in August, but I asked for and got a small fan which cooled things down to a tolerable level. The bathrooms were mostly kept clean and there were several scattered about on various floors. I found the hot water in the shower to be erratic on the top floor but it was pretty reliable on the middle floor, so I used that for most of my stay. The breakfast was adequate though a little too much pork-laden for me. I used the tube from Heathrow to get to the hotel. Its located close to the tourist stuff, a stone's throw away from the British Museum and a short walk away from a wide variety of ethnic cuisine. If you like Pakistani food, walk over to the Drummond road area near the hospital tower. This hospital also offers a nice look at the city. Take the elevator to one of the higher floors and save yourself a ride on the over-hyped London Eye. Buy a tube ticket for the day and go hit the sights. In summary a great place for travelers on a budget who just want a clean place to sleep at night.

The room was tiny and housed a double bed pushed upgainst the wall, a wardrobe, small chest of drawers and bedside cabinet with missing handles. We were unable to make ourselves a drink due to the state of the inside of the kettle. The room was hot and stuffy with only a very small window The room was ensuite and the bathroom looked relatively new but on turning on the shower both hot and cold taps produced scalding water which prevented us from using the facilities. We requested another room but was told there were no rooms available. As we had booked two nights we decided only to stay the one and cancel the second night. The hotel refused to refund us for the second night even though we had given them 24 hours notice (as indicated on their website). We decided to get out of the hotel at the earliest opportunity and left the following morning without even having breakfast which we were also charged for. I would definitely not recommend this hotel to anyone. It was an awful experience and the hotel website did not truly reflect the hotel. Another downside was the hotel was opposite the local police station and you can imagine the amount of noise generated everytime a police car left the station with sirens blaring out throughout the night.", "Location Of The Reviewer": "Preston, United Kingdom", "Date Of Review": "8\/28\/2010" }, { "Property_Name": "The Rembrandt", "Review Rating": 5, "Review Title": "Return to the Rembrandt after 20 years", "Review Text": "My first visit was 25 years ago and a few times since.
