“This hotel certainly aims high, blending modern luxury with a dash of artistic flair in the heart of London's financial district; the Michelin-starred dining and rooftop bar promise memorable experiences, though reports of inconsistent service give pause. It presents as a stylish choice for business and leisure, but seems to require a closer look to ensure expectations align with reality.”

charming stay

clean hotel modern bedroom
The hotel was very clean and modern. my bedroom and bathroom were both spacious and very nice. the staff were efficient and friendly. That charmed me. it is a short walk to two metro stations in either direction.
The minibar was not restocked daily. It inconvenienced me. i expected it to be checked and refilled more regularly, especially given the hotel's reputation. i had to call down to request items on several occasions.
