Worse check-in process I’ve experienced in London.

The rooms and general hotel is fine. However the check in process is terrible. Long queues, more staff standing around than checking people in. Zero apology for 30 minutes waiting in line. Twice asked for my passport despite being a British citizen And not requiring it. Staff could hardly understand me and had no care at all about the length of wait time . The photo is at 11.20pm. Awful experience.

Overall a good stay

Reception staff very friendly and overall the staff were very helpful. The room was nicely decorated,clean and a good size and the bathroom updated. The bed and pillows were comfortable. Only two problems really. No air-conditioning which meant our room was way to warm and when you opened the window it was extremely noisy but you are in central London.The second was the shower which did not stay straight when it was in the holder so you could not stand under it but had to take the shower hose/ head down and hold it.
