Reasonable value for London but didn't feel as chrietmasy as it could. There was no big Christmas tree in the lobby just a small one in the restaurant. Staff were friendly and helpful and location is good near embankment and museums.

My Top Pick in London
I loved my stay at The Grand Trafalgar Square. It was convenient to everything I wanted to do in London. It was in a busy area without being too noisy. The staff made me feel so comfortable - especially Jake and Salman. I will plan on staying at The Grand Trafalgar Square whenever I come to London.

The rooms were a bit outdated, especially the bathroom. We did like access to the first floor area where you could grab a tea, coffee or water. The restaurant onsite food was just ok. It was fun staying in Trafalgar Square. London is very walkable.

Front desk service was excellent. Check in smooth, fantastic location right near Trafalgar Square. The customer service was first rate from the time we checked in until when we left and stored our bags for a few hours. Only negative was breakfast, when we were scolded by the bartender for looking at our laptop to try to plan our day. That was not a great look from the hotel. Otherwise everything was great.
