Top London Hotel Reviews

Premier Inn Heathrow Airport Terminal 4

10/10 Excellent

"Quick overnight stay and everything was great"

Hotel Riu Plaza London The Westminster

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel with excellent facilities. Shame there was no evening food, but it wasn't far to find somewhere to eat (reception staff were really helpful and gave a good range of options). Breakfast lovely and really broad range, and handy to have small on site gym, if you're that way inclined!"

Atrium Hotel Heathrow

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent Service I had a wonderful stay! The service was exceptional from start to finish. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and attentive to every detail. Everything was clean and comfortable, and they truly made me feel valued as a guest. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for great service and a pleasant experience. ❤️"

Princes Gardens

10/10 Excellent

"Very convenient location right near Albert Hall, ideal for our Proms visit. Staff everywhere were helpful and friendly. Room was clean and functional with excellent wifi, though a bit small for a double and had only 1 chair - that was ok for our 1 night but perhaps not so good for a longer stay. Buffet breakfast was good value, with plenty of food and lots of choice. It was a pity we arrived at the refectory just as a school group was going through so self-service was a bit slow and chaotic, but you could go back to get what you missed when the queue subsided. We ended up sharing a table with three delightful young Chinese girls keen to chat, an enjoyable bonus."
