Top Shaftesbury Hotel Reviews

Bob W London Hyde Park

10/10 Excellent

"Clean quiet and comfortable room. Easy check in and out. Good location near where I was at a conference. Would recommend"

Bluedaws Private Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"It needs to be understood that this is a budget accommodation. We are very satisfied with what we received for the price we paid. Staff were very friendly and wanted guests to have a great experience. Thanks for always asking us how our trip was going! To further improve I would suggest some more options on the complimentary breakfast, and a cooked vegetarian option!"

Marlin Waterloo

10/10 Excellent

"Very well located in Waterloo. The proximity to the main attractions within London. and to the tube stations really helped enhance the experience. Additionally, the rooms were simple, clean and well sized. Just comfortable for two adults. We didn't make use of the kitchenette, but it was nice to have it handy and available."

citizenM Tower of London

10/10 Excellent

"Great location for touristy stuff! Right across from the Tower Bridge and multiple of the city sightseeing tour bus stops. Tube access to the District/Circle line right around the corner from the hotel entrance as well. If you have any early flights to Stansted and/or Luton airports, night tube will not be accessible so be aware. Otherwise, the rooms were clean, the staff were exceptional & professional. Will definitely be returning in the future!"
