Good large room with all necessary facilities
Disliked the blacked out windows, for the price paid would have expected better! If I was staying more than one night would have asked for a room change.
When booking asked if we required parking, but it was not explained there was no parking at the hotel, had to go to public carpark half a mile away.

October 2009
the location is excellent (Trafalgar Square and Embankment subway station)- the exterior of the hotel is beautiful - we didn't mind the construction going on in the vacinity
carpet was dirty and the bed cover had a dubious stain - sheets were never changed in 5 days -
had to sign for a sizeable deposit for misc.
which I have never encountered before. When we asked about the complimentary lounge advertised, we were snubbed "by invitation only". Also, notes left for the cleaning person were ignored
