Top National Portrait Gallery Hotel Reviews

STG Hotel London Oxford Street

8/10 Good

"The shower , TV , refrigerator , aircon and loo paper were all excellent in our Classic Double room but the bed was creaky and placed against a side wall - we are in our seventies and didn't appreciate the assault course . Things we had come to take for granted on our many previous stays at what we now call STG have to be requested from Reception for the Classic room : kettle , cups , extra pillow , room clean , towel change ( the last two never happened ) No concierge now - He always answered every question ! We drank in the hotel bar and dined in both restaurants - all excellent but £19 for breakfast seemed a bit steep . STG location - almost in Oxford Street - is great ; since the advent of the Elizabeth Line , just 2 tube stops from Paddington . I would recommend this hotel on that basis alone but be sure of what to expect !"

The Londoner

10/10 Excellent

"Stay was great, very clean, great location"

Otherwander Soho Pod Hotel (ADULTS ONLY)

Zedwell Piccadilly Circus

8/10 Good

"A good nights sleep, not much else to say. I’ve had better stays here in the past, clearly some rooms are better than others."

Victory House Leicester Square

10/10 Excellent

"Its a beautiful Hotel in a great location. The only downside is, no car access, so you would have to walk a bit with suitcases to and from the Hotel."

The Z Hotel Leicester Square

10/10 Excellent

"This location is in the middle of the city so it was easy to get to places and only a few minute from their Chinatown. The nightlife is booming and lots of souvenir shops and eateries nearby. The water fluctuated between hot and cold but it wasn’t too bad. Breakfast provided daily which was great when we had booked schedules and wanted to grab a quick bite to eat before we left. Had a good experience here and would definitely consider coming back if we come back to London."
