Stayed in the Hotel around the end of January 2012 for 4 nights and was very happy with my stay at this property.
Location: The Hotel is very easy to get too especially being surrounded by 3 main tube lines + 1 over rail service as well as having various bus stations around the Hotel. It is very easy to get into the centre of London as it takes around 15 minutes and the closest tube station is only a 15 minute walk up the high street along with 2-3 bus stations outside the Hotel which will also take you to where you want to go. When I read other peoples reviews about location and saying "its a poor location, the tube is up the other end of the street" I wonder if they stayed in the same Hotel as me? There are also a lot of shops up the high street and Westfield shopping centre is around a 15 minute walk with 265 stores to shop from.
Hotel: The room was clean and spacious, the bed was very comfortable and little to no noise so I slept really well. The Hotel itself, last time I visited was going under a refurbishment in the bar, restaurant and reception. The finished product now is 5*, you could sit in the "Society Bar" all night and drink it is that comfortable and with a widescreen TV showing sport, its ideal. There is also a Costa coffee shop in the Hotel which is ideal in the morning!
Service: Check in was easy and no problem. I had great service in the Bar from I think his name was "Rennuard" when he let me and a friend eat from the room service menu in the bar and during the 4 nights we stayed really looked after us, I never needed to leave my chair once. Also "Elle" at reception, I had a query about my bill which I left with her, she sorted it out in no time and left me a note in my room letting me know it was sorted. Concierge were very helpful as well.
Overall: Had a great stay, nice area and staff were very friendly and helpful!
