Top Shaftesbury Avenue Hotel Reviews

Otherwander Soho Pod Hotel (ADULTS ONLY)

8/10 Good

"Checking in, or even reserving in the first place, can be remarkably difficult if you don’t have a smartphone. My check-in agent was wonderfully helpful, and eventually figured out a way to provide me with the necessary “key” in spite of my iPad-based reservation. Still, prepare yourself for a bit of a struggle…"

Bedford Hotel

8/10 Good

"No air conditioning which is becoming increasingly necessary now. Have to open windows which makes it noisy being on a main road. Small table fan was noisy. Room and bathroom tight space but clean. Overall the hotel was clean. Should add small towels for bathing if using liquid soap."

Strand Palace Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We loved the Strand Palace. Location was great, staff was very helpful, bed was comfortable, breakfast was very good."

The Grand at Trafalgar Square

10/10 Excellent

"Check in was fabulous."

Royal National Hotel

8/10 Good

"Definitely a decent hotel to stay in. Everything was clean and facilities were good. Very helpful staff. No air conditioning but fans provided on request. Definitely stay again as location very good."

The Langham, London

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely 2 night stay. Very helpful and friendly all round."

St Martins Lane London, a Morgans Originals hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was very friendly and accommodating, bed was comfy, and this place is very convenient for getting around. Definitely recommended."

Victory House Leicester Square

8/10 Good

"Overall really great stay. A few quarks - one elevator was out for the entire weeks stay, and sometimes had to go up to go down. Additionally, the air conditioner would go out from time to time. Typically fixed pretty quickly - but during really hot days was a little uncomfortable. Other than that, rooms here very clean, and staff wonderful and friendly. Note that the restaurant for breakfast is at an adjacent hotel, and the lobby drink service is sold through the front desk and not an actual bar. The location was great. Be prepared though, you are essentially in the Times Square of London - so if hustle and bustle isn’t your thing - you might find the area overwhelming, but it is incredibly convenient to get to use the underground and get to many of the main attractions. I would consider this property for my next stay."

STG Hotel London Oxford Street

8/10 Good

"The hotel is very central for a few days in London. The reception staff were lovely and very helpful. We had stayed here last year and even though there had been renovations we felt we got a better room with amenities last year. This year room was smaller, hardly any natural light (not good for somebody with dodgy eyesight) and was very disappointed that the rooms were no longer equipped with a fridge. Also for the size of the hotel we felt more lifts would have been useful. That being said if you are going to be out all day and evening exploring London and just need a room to sleep and shower this could be for you."
