Top London Hotel Reviews

The Drey - Kensington, Earl's Court

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, great rooms, excellent care by staff."

Zedwell Piccadilly Circus

10/10 Excellent

"Best balance regarding the price. The location is amazing, it is inexpensive, the facility is great. Rooms are very basics but surprisely big considering the price. The staff are discreet but above all courteous, welcoming and helpful despite the volume of customers. It's a very lively place while still being calming. I highly recommend 😊."

Royal National Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel was in a great location for using public transport and had very clean rooms. The only downside we had was that our room was super warm on the evening and we couldn't open the window and there was no temperature control for the room that we could see. Aside from that we had a great experience staying here for the 1 night!"
