Great room, pub, food and best location. …

5 / 5

We loved this place. We usually stay at high ended hotel chains such as Sofitel, but decided to go more local in London. It was a great decision. The pub was a happy place with lots of people, minus the sad drunks. The food was so good we ate there every night and the prices were great. We are foodies and I am an experienced international cook, and was really impressed with offerings. We ate at some choice restaurants at lunch, but still looked forward to supper at The Wellington. The room: the bathroom was new, so very clean. The shower had great shower head and hand held and towels were very large and fluffy. The bed was very comfortable and mostly sound proof room: Could not hear music in pub, but 1 night there were some noisy neighbors. The room had a filled fridge with items to buy and the bottled water was free. The price included breakfast. My husband got the full English every day, but real good pancakes on 1 day. I ate croissants and coffee. They had very good coffee or could order cappacino. I highly recommend The Wellington. The employees were all incredibly helpful. There is no lift and no rooms on main floor. They helped us with luggage up the stairs. I will stay there again. Often we hit Europe at London first. Now I have a place I want to stay for a few days. Also it is at Waterloo Station, busiest Station in London. Trains, busses, etc. The tour hop on hop off around the block. …We loved this place.

BE WARNED: Location is great, Property is TERRIBLE…

2 / 5

We've stayed at this property three times over the course of the past few years. The location is amazing, just a few blocks from the Tate Modern, the Thames, Millennial Bridge... St Paul's and several underground stations are only a short walk. The central location is why we've come back. But BE WARNED. The property manager doesn't seem to care for either the property or his clients. The property is rundown - everything is dingy and could use a fresh coat of paint. The furnishings are cheap and nothing in the property is well maintained - dirty pillows, broken tiles, scuff marks everywhere. With a little TLC, this could be an amazing property (and the rents would go up as well!). The property manager also doesn't care about keeping loyal customers. We arrived late at night and BE WARNED - there is a exorbitant fee for arriving after hours, even though the person there to greet us and give us our key provided ZERO instruction or assistance. The guy handed us the key and left. Since we had stayed at this property several times before, we knew this and asked if any concession could be made. NOPE. With no refund or recourse available, we paid the king's ransom (100 pounds!) and vowed never to stay there again. Whatever - last time we'll stay at this fleabag apartment. …We've stayed at this property three times over the course of the past few years.
