"Awesome property, great staff and roomy comfortable accommodations. Breakfast is awesome. On-site restaurant (Kerriges) is superb. Quiet location close to shopping, shows and the Underground. Bring a device that can Cast your content to TV so you don't have to try to find something to watch on the confusing TV/Media System, the channel guide is awful. The WiFi is lightning fast and great for streaming."

Top Trafalgar Square Hotel Reviews

The Z Hotel Strand

6/10 Okay

"It was in a great location for central London, clean and had all the basics, staff were friendly, free cheese and wine ...... 3 negatives though .....first the glass panels bathroom ....not nice if sharing with someone, very embarrassing. Second , we paid extra for a window, window was frosted glass and behind the headboard so couldnt see out of it. 3rd room was very very small, had to crawl over the person I was sharing with to get in bed !"

Zedwell Piccadilly Circus

6/10 Okay

"Room and bed was clean. Pillows were flat and they would not provide extras. Hotel had no windows and areas where the air conditioning didn’t work were hot and suffocating. We moved rooms to an area that was cooler and air conditioning worked better. Great location. Nice lobby. Helpful staff. But if you have any level of claustrophobia this is not the place for you."

President Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A perfect location, near St Pancras and access to Eurostar etc. lots of public transport options. Very walkable area, really lovely. Restaurants, parks, museums nearby, including a good spot for breakfast right on the corner. Room was very nice, and enough room to unpack and move around. I'd stay here again. Love the whole area. Staff very pleasant."

STG Hotel London Oxford Street

8/10 Good

"This is a budget priced hotel just steps from Oxford Street and Tottenham Court Rd tube station. Check in was 3pm but my daughter and I arrived round 1pm and for £20 were able to avail of early check in and get into our room. Check in was fast and automated with a staff member on hand who printed our key cards for us. Room was on the small side but perfect for what we needed as we were really only in it to sleep in it. Basic but clean, great dressing table/mirror area, TV, hairdryer and safe. The room had good AC which was great as it was very warm during our visit. Bathroom again was small but clean and perfectly adequate for our needs. Our only niggle was how long to get and to use the lifts, they are very busy and often stop at nearly every floor, we were on floor 10 so if you are pressed for time allow an extra 10 mins to get one and get down to reception. Any staff we encountered were friendly and helpful. All in all for the price this is a great, centrally located, excellent option for a basic budget stay in London, however if you want extras like toiletries and tea/coffee making facilities then other hotels which will cost more are available and may be more suitable for you. We were very happy with our stay and will use STG again."
