Top Royal Institution of Great Britain Hotel Reviews

Park Plaza London Westminster Bridge

10/10 Excellent

"What a beautiful hotel, room and bathroom were large, clean, and very comfortable beds. Of course the location is amazing."

Strand Palace Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The location was perfect and the hotel was lovely. I didn’t get any street sounds & the staff was very kind. I also loved the refillable water bottle with refills stations."

The Grand at Trafalgar Square

10/10 Excellent

"Most were really helpful. Had an issue at the breakfast buffet staff was rude and did t want to help. Had to ask multiple times for certain items on the buffet as they had ran out. Buffet price was too high for the food options and quality of food during breakfast. Espresso machine was awesome. Dinner at the restaurant was amazing .Close to everything and Prezzo accross the street is a must try place to eat if you are there"

Zedwell Piccadilly Circus

8/10 Good

"This is a great place for the basics. The rooms are very basic and provide a safe, clean place to sleep and go back out and do the tourist thing. I had never stayed in a hotel like this before and it served our needs. They stored our bags for a price, if you needed more towels or toilet tissue they were helpful, but this is a very basic place. I did love that you could not hear the noise of Piccadilly Circus and the room was dark for sleep since there wasn't any windows. Overall it was a good stay."

Moxy London Piccadilly Circus

8/10 Good

"Helpful staff. One downside was that the larger trash cans on room floors was by the elevator. Each morning when we left residents had left take-out containers from the night before in the trash near the elevators and caused a bad smell."

The Chesterfield Mayfair

8/10 Good

"Clean room, but the carpet was a bit ripped up. The shower didn't drain well, but it was clean. Breakfast was excellent and the rooftop bar was a nice surprise."

The Cumberland, London

8/10 Good

"This is a solid, very nice mid-tier hotel. Nothing fancy but great for an affordable stay. Its location is excellent, right next to a major underground stop. The only disappointment was the restaurants: breakfast buffet - decent not more; Hell’s Kitchen - well presented, but pricey and not very flavorful, and Lirica - below average in many ways. Bar was terrific however! So best to go elsewhere for dinners."

Nobu London Portman Square

8/10 Good

"Breakfast buffet was excellent."

St. James' Court, A Taj Hotel, London

10/10 Excellent

"Make sure that get the option that includes breakfast. The spread of food is very good with lots of servers. The Spa is includes so a steam and sauna are available and so is the hot tub pool"
