"I cannot say enough wonderful things about our stay here. We came to London so I could run the London Marathon. This apartment is absolutely perfect and beautiful. It is extremely close to The Mall and Buckingham Palace where the finish line is for the marathon which is why I chose this one to begin with but what I didn’t realize until we got there was how close it truly was.

Radisson Blu Hotel, London Heathrow

Radisson Blu Hotel, London Heathrow

6/10 Okay
"Lovely reception/lobby, but the corridor and room were in desperate need of refurbishment (Tired carpets and peeling wallpaper.) The location was great and close to the airport. I feel overall the staff could have been more friendly, professional, and helpful. I attempted to order room service, however, I had to call six times before receiving a call back."
