Great hotel in the center of London.
Ideally located: 8 minutes walk to Buckingham Palace (go there in the morning before breakfast to take a photo without tourists), 15 minutes walk to Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament (there is nothing to do there in the morning, but in the evening when it gets dark it’s a different story, look at the lighting). Five minutes walk to St. James Park tube and 15 minutes walk to Westminster pier (river tram Uber boat to Greenwich or back, not only convenient to get there, but also interesting views).
Three minutes walk to the great pub The Albert, have a beer. There is also a currency exchange and ATM across the road. Several supermarkets are within walking distance.
If you arrive before check-in time, they offer to take a shower and change clothes in the fitness center for free and leave your luggage in storage, which will be delivered to your room at check-in time.
Combined breakfast: buffet + order any two dishes from the menu. If you arrive in the morning, before 8:00, then everything is great. But not exactly at 7:00, at this time there is already a line of those who were waiting for him at the door :) Later there is already a line, a lot of people. You can sit outside in the garden if the weather permits. At the entrance, while waiting, they pour you some Proseco, or rather, you pour yourself some :)
The Internet is excellent, it just flies.
There is free water in the room, they refill it every day. Kettle, coffee maker, refrigerator. Large safe (laptop included). The room itself is large, comfortable. The bathroom has everything you need: shampoo, gel, hand cream, toothbrush, etc.
There is a gym and a spa, but I have not been there.
The building has an interesting history, read about it on the hotel website.
Overall, I am more than satisfied. All the shortcomings are compensated by the location.
