Top Leicester Square Hotel Reviews

Strand Palace Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, near soho, parliament and right on the Piccadilly line! Staff was very friendly as well ! "

The Grand at Trafalgar Square

10/10 Excellent

"Older hotel, but made up with it from the friendly staff, comfy bed, fluffy pillows, storage space, free water/bottles, and toiletries. Plus, the location was incredibly ideal for our trip because major busses stop out front and it's near 2 tube stations and Trafalgar Square and the Jubilee Bridge. Will definitely stay again if we return! "
