Top Trafalgar Square Hotel Reviews

Thistle Trafalgar - Leicester Square

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great. Very kind and helpfull staff."

Zedwell Piccadilly Circus

2/10 Terrible

"Absolutely horrible. They claim minimalism in their style, it's more minimal in what we can do to support you as a patron. Asked for help with the check-in since self check-in couldn't locate our name. The gentleman on the floor basically kept dismissing us. After being awake 27 hours was frustrating The room has nothing .. no iron/ironing board, no closet, no where to store clothing. The bed area and bathroom was separated by a sliding glass door. So hearing and smelling your spouse off load the prior nights indian delicacy.. not fun No windows at all ... That was nuts We had to argue with the staff for additional towels and pillows. The pillows are thin and only 2 for 2 people was miserable with a mattress that had very little support They never cleaned the room Great location though! Never again"

Club Quarters Hotel, Trafalgar Square

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was very friendly and helpful. The laundry wash seemed to malfunction time wise but hopefully it was just a glitch. However just one washing machine and one dryer is very Insufficient for the whole hotel. You have to be lucky to go when it's empty. You also have to rely on the person who has laundry in the wash coming on time to remove it. A 4 star elegant well run hotel should have better and more convenient laundry facilities."

The Grand at Trafalgar Square

10/10 Excellent

"The room was spacious and clean. The breakfast was good with plenty of options. The biggest reason I choose this hotel was its location. It's really close to two Underground stations, and close to a lot of sites of interest. Some of the sites (Parlement, Westminster Abbey, and Trafalgar Square) are a short walk away. If I am in London again, I will definitely stay there."

The Z Hotel Leicester Square

10/10 Excellent

"We had a 4 night stay at this location we made it to the hotel at 8am. They held our bags for us, told us the room wouldn’t be ready until 3:30. We were very close to the many museums and restaurants. The breakfast was very good, a wide selection. All around a great location and place to stay. All of the staff were very welcoming and friendly, I would recommend this hotel everyone!"

Strand Palace Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We love the convenient location on the Strand - closeby to Covent Garden’s - surrounded by amenities for shopping - dining - theatres- the staff and check in experience are wonderful. Very friendly and helpful. Food Restaurant Bar Underground tube - railway - and bus route - 91 to/from Kings Cross- we have used the hotel for 10 years, comfortable beds, rooms spacious, art deco modern and very clean well maintained amenities - Including Rituals, delicious coffee capsules and a quiet room. We generally eat breakfast at the Watch House Covent Garden & visit the nearby Coal Hole pub opposite as we enjoy the live music after a full day of exploring our London events."
