I booked this hotel at the last minute, and it exceeded all my expectations. Everything was excellent from start to finish. The room was immaculate, the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and both the bar and restaurant were fantastic. The breakfast was outstanding and, even better, included in the price.

The location couldn’t have been better, making it easy to explore London. I can’t recommend this hotel highly enough and will definitely stay here again in a heartbeat.

Perfect location and very friendly staff. The hotel does not have a lobby, so if you want to spend time outside your room, you’ll need to use the pub on the ground floor, where you can enjoy a drink or a meal. A very good breakfast is also served there.

Our room was next to the elevator, which was quite noisy, especially early in the morning. I would not recommend accepting a room in that location.

The room and bathroom were very clean and comfortable.

We stayed in July, and the price was quite high, likely due to both the excellent location and the peak tourist season.

Wow close to every major attraction. Rode london eye, toured weatminster abbey, churchill war tunnels, saw big ben, st james park, clanging of guard, rode in black cab. Staff helpful. Short 12.dollar taxi to Victoria coach station to get go cruise port. Free breakfast good. Also saw queen Victoria memorial. Saw all this in 2 days pre british isles cruise. Great pub downstairs.

Spacious room, toiletries, bath robe, tea and coffee in the room with some biscuits. Minutes walking to main attractions, we even walked to SoHo, but that one was a longer walk. A very good bar next door. Not for a night life goers, pretty calm at night time. Love the hotel, would stay again and recommend.

This is a really nice hotel! The location is walkable to Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, and other great sights. The room we had was lovely. Having the Pub downstairs was so convenient and the food was very good. Breakfast in the Pub was great, well worth adding to your stay.

Our room was clean, comfortable, and attractive. Mini fridge, coffee/tea, and snacks came in handy. Breakfast was fabulous! Wish I stayed long enough to try everything on the menu. All staff members were pleasant and helpful. The Westminster location was fantastic. We were able to walk to many attractions and the tube was next door for farther trips.

I had a double deluxe room. It was perfect size for me and very clean. We stayed for a week. Coffee, tea and water in the room were complimentary. Staff was very helpful.
Our breakfast was included and convenient in the Pub downstairs. Great location!

This was an overall mediocre experience. This hotel is the sheer opposite of a “sanctuary.” No one is happy to see you upon arrival and no one cares about your stay, if you ask questions, it feels like you are being bothersome. When you book a room with them, you are essentially agreeing to being on your own. The receptionist wouldn’t even provide me with an extra 6 ounce bottle of water. She only provided one keycard. They have signage to not overuse toiletries. The television has a limited number of channels and most channels have programming for senior citizens—an excess of old-time shows from the 1950s and 1960s. The elevator is extremely slow. Basically, the management is really tight with their resources, but charge a lot for the rooms. Also, their connected pub is greatly lacking diversity. The room decor was nice, but wasn’t nice enough to transform this into a good experience. This is really a substandard, soulless place promoting itself as “sanctuary.” This hotel has been neglected for too long and feels like an abandoned property. This experience was so below-average that I feel like it reduced the quality of our stay in the UK for the time we stayed there. Essentially, this hotel is confusing, it wants to be a luxurious “sanctuary” and it feels like maybe it once was when those senior citizens were in their prime, but like the old time shows on tv, it has lost its luster.

The room was wonderful. Shower was fantastic with great water pressure. Beds were comfortable. Only thing was that we were in a twin room and the duvets were twin. Was hard to stay covered all night. Would have been even better with double/full sized duvet. Otherwise loved the close proximity to the underground station, and 3 minute walk to Westminster Abbey. Also had a stop right out front for the hop on/off bus tours. Very convenient. And the included breakfast was also excellent! Great stay!

Very convenient location. Fair price. Breakfast was good with enough different options. They let us check in early after arriving on a red eye which was great. Staff was very nice. Room was decent size stocked with everything you’d expect & was clean. Only complaint would be the beds were pretty uncomfortable - could feel the springs in the mattress when laying down in the standard 2 twin room. Wasn’t unbearable but not the most comfortable. All in- for the price & location you can’t beat it.

Karen is more than a front desk staff and helped us plan excursions to make the most of our 2 day trip. Fabio was backup the next day helping us find the best routes. Did I mention breakfast - absolutely fantastic and best hotel breakfast we’ve ever had! I will 100% be staying here again and the location is fabulous. Extraordinarily well done - amazing stay!

Overnight stay 25/10/25

Myself and my wife stayed overnight at this absolutely charming establishment.
Although the room was relatively small it was very clean, very eloquent and all that we could have wished for and so much more.
There was a coffee machine with pods, a selection of lovely Twining teas and all the mod cons we had hoped for.

The breakfast was exquisite and very tasty indeed.
We both had full English breakfasts which was so tasty and filling.

All the staff that we spoke to were very polite and happy people.

We will definitely stay here again.

A perfect location for both business and leisure

Attended a two-day conference within a few minutes walking distance. A perfect location for that, and if we would have been vacationers, also for that. A minute’s walk to a tube station.
The room on the third floor was comfortable and quiet. The only thing I missed was furniture for the luggage.
