Top Science Museum Hotel Reviews

The Rembrandt

10/10 Excellent

"This is my second time staying at the Rembrandt. The hotel’s location is great. It’s near the Kensington museums and restaurants and the Underground is a 7-10 minute walk. The decor is pleasing, it’s very clean, and the staff are really nice and helpful. The bar is a nice place to relax and the food is good."

Zedwell Piccadilly Circus

10/10 Excellent

"Zedwell is windowless cocoons, know that going in. But if you want clean, quiet, comfortable a stone's throw from Piccadilly Circus, for the cost of a middle US Interstate Hampton Inn, this is your place. No chair, no table, no amenities. Bed, walk-in shower and toilet. Good wifi, plenty of charging plugs. When I'm in London, time spent in the hotel room feels like a waste. So Zedwell all but forces me to get out and see this extraordinary city. Then when I come home to crash, it's lights out, pitch dark, total quiet, and I'll be ready for the next day."

Bathroom had good quality toiletries, robes, slippers and thick white fluffy towels. Even although I was only there for one night I couldn’t fault the hotel and would definitely hope to stay there again."
