We LOVED this property and the location! It was accessible (via Tube or walking) to everything we wanted to see on our short visit to London. The staff were wonderful, and Lima at the front desk was particularly gracious and helpful. I will definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting London.

Good experience at this hotel, room is a little dated but it’s clean. The air conditioner was a bit annoying because it kept blowing on my face while sleeping. Good dining options both in and outside of the hotel and it’s very convenient to get to public transportation and tourist sites.

Good hotel in a very good location. Staff helpful. Hotel is old though and the rooms are basic. Worst thing - house keeping cleaning is half assed, done alternate days (climate is an inane excuse— we clean our place every day!), and sometimes the staff “forget” to change the sheets. Nice place but won’t stay again.

The Grand at Trafalgar Square
We were tourists in London and the location of the Grand at Trafalgar Square was terrific. It is a short walk to a few great inexpensive restaurants, pubs and nice restaurants. The Grand at Trafalgar Square shares the building with the Guest Quarters, this was confusing when I was looking at hotels. Although the lobby is lovely with all the marble, our room was very tired.

Excellent hotel and great location. Very attentive staff team and good overall ambiance. I suggest missing the breakfast as this is dear and you can get better quality at half the price at Cafe Concerto which is about 200 yards away.

Edward, Longstanton

Overall I was disappointed. The main thing going for the hotel was its location. I found the room to be relatively small and dated; the bathroom pokey and stained, and the corridors to be tired. Quite a lot of sound travelled through the walls and ceiling. A good thing is that the room had a kettle, which I like, and soya milk sachets were available in the lounge. The club lounge was excellent (though with limited facilities, just tea/coffee, which is all they promise to be fair). Bar prices seemed very high.

The room I stayed in could use some updating. The chair was hard as a rock and the bathroom fixtures were very worn and cracked. The bed was comfortable. Housekeeping didn’t come when they were supposed to, but that worked out okay. My biggest complaint was that much like most hotels in London, they told me in advance that early checkin was a possibility, but it never really is. Coming in from the US, most flights arrive early morning and I’m always exhausted and the only hotel in the area that has ever let me check in early was the Cavendish London on Jermyn St. I only stay at hotels more than once when they allow early checkin. They weren’t available this time. I come to London every 6 months and I went be staying here again.
