Top Science Museum Hotel Reviews

Zedwell Piccadilly Circus

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location! Lovely and clean. Exactly what you want for somewhere to shower and sleep as a base"

Otherwander Soho Pod Hotel (ADULTS ONLY)

8/10 Good

"Location was the best thing about this property. I suggest for solo travellers to book a double pod because the single pod is tiny. I was very glad I booked a double pod for myself and I was surprised to find that it was a double (it really felt like a single); I can’t imagine how small the single pods are. There is no fridge in the hotel, and there is only one towel and one pair of slippers. If you want more you have to pay. No room service of course as it’s just a small pod. The staff were helpful and friendly. Location is heart of soho. You will hear people going in and out. You’ll hear door slamming. I find the room to also be somewhat on the colder side. There is a thermostat in the pod but it can only go up (or down) to a certain degree, then it locks. I also suggest bring your own slippers. The showers can be extremely wet and then all the waters spills into the washroom area. Check washroom stalls before you go in as I found some were left without toilet paper for days."

Princes Gardens

8/10 Good

"The room is clean and big. However the toilet flush was not working properly but they tried to fix it but can't be done straightaway. Staff are very helpful. There was a lot of food choices during breakfast but I am not really a breakfast person. So I just enjoy having coffee and bread and fresh fruits. Love the swimming pool. Location wise I personally .chose to stay here for some appointments that I have around this area"

The Queen's Gate Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Conveniently located, very clean. Friendly, accommodating staff, always ready to help. Dinner and bar services are very good. There are no places for breakfast in close vicinity, but a full breakfast at the hotel offers a large number of items on the menu."

Bob W London Hyde Park

10/10 Excellent

"Overall a great hotel, although bear in mind the 2 small lifts. One of them was out of service in the entire 4 days of my stay, so i feel that could’ve been addressed with more urgency. Otherwise, great room and experience."

Royal Garden Hotel

10/10 Excellent
