I have read, with some surprise, negative reviews regarding this hotel (refurbishment is planned for 2012) but having stayed there last night with my daughter, I couldn't fault it. The location is perfect for all London sight-seeing and especially for the theatres. We found the rooms a little tired and in need of updating but our twin room on the... More

The Thistle Piccadilly is a Victorian Hotel in Leicester Square. The "bones" of the hotel are fine: large rooms, good HVAC system, lots of hot water; however, it is very tired and need to be refurbished. Management has started this process. We were given a tour of the Thistle Trafalgar which has been refurbished and told this hotel would look... More

We were moved to this hotel from the Piccadilly Thistle due to a leak before we arrived and enjoyed the Piccadilly Thistle very much. The room and storage were both good, the place was clean and the staff couldn't have been friendlier or more helpful. I would have liked a view which didn't include the air vents but we could...

After reading advices on trip we was unsure if this should be below our expectations, but how wrong could we be. It... More

This hotel sums up all that is bad about 'rip off Britain' - poor quality, high prices, when will they ever learn?? It is embarrassing to think that foreign tourists stay in places like this and assume that it is what passes for decent accommodation in the UK. The location in Leicester Sq is not the most pleasant, but it... More

Very pleased with friendly efficient service. Good value room and breakfast. Great location. More

Shopping, good restaurants and lots of theatres close by - that was what my wife requested from our hotel, where we stayed the night of her 40th Birthday. We were not disappointed! The Thistle is right on top of Leicester Sq with everything else minutes away on foot. We were greeted within seconds of entering the hotel and booking in... More
