“St Simeon strikes me as a real find in central London, where the location, near Gloucester Road station, puts the city within easy reach; add to this family-sized rooms and you are set for a pleasant stay. The staff made an impression, too, with their warm welcome and making sure guests feel at home. A solid choice, in my opinion.”
