Top London Hotel Reviews

The Tower Hotel, by Thistle

8/10 Good

"Super!"

Sofitel London Heathrow

10/10 Excellent

"An overnight stay at LHR T5 for a 9:15flight was perfect, nice room - very comfy bed, enjoyed a few drinks and food in the bar - was advised better to pay as you go, rather than set up an account, as 7-8am very busy at reception."

The Cumberland, London

10/10 Excellent

"property was clean and in a desirable location"

Strand Palace Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff (doormen, cleaning and front desk) was extremely helpful. I throughly enjoyed my stay!"

citizenM Tower of London

10/10 Excellent

"Deffhfdfgf’ggfrgff"

STG Hotel London Oxford Street

8/10 Good

"My single room did exactly what I needed it to — it gave me a clean safe place to stay when traveling by myself. So conveniently close to the British Museum and I came strait from Heathrow on the Elizabeth line. The only 2 minor drawbacks were that there was no room to open my suitcase except on my bed and that there was vacuum cleaner left out on the narrow hall the whole overnight stay I was there."

Hotel Riu Plaza London The Westminster

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing stay, will be back!"

Park Plaza London Westminster Bridge

10/10 Excellent

"Very good indeed would highly recommend"

The Langham, London

10/10 Excellent

"Langham are always a cut above. This was my second stay in London, but I have stayed in Hong Kong and several times in Sydney. Faultless. Judy Munros"
