The location is simply perfect, no need to come back to that. However, I was disappointed by my last stay at this hotel. - The rooms are showing their age, and should really be painted again. - The service is not satisfactory for a hotel that pretend a 4 star one : the small bottle of shampoo was not changed...

Good position, near a lot of attractions, very accessible for public transportation, restaurants, cinema, theaters .... The room was quite nice, not so spacious, but great view, a little bit to warm during night. Wi-fi was ok, everywhere in the hotel, staff friendly. For sure, next time in London, I'll stay here, again.

A thoroughly professionally run Hotel that somehow manages to capture the comfortable ambience of the best. Our room (320) has no view and is dark. For us that is a minor issue as we used the room primarily to sleep. The room was slightly warm but I assume it is controlled in the summer. The room and bathroom are quite... More

Great location. Pretty much in the centre of London, but being slightly off Trafalgar Square means it's still quite. Looking out of your window over the London skyline is pretty nice. Within easy reach of the tube or train, and within easy reach of attractions such as Houses of Parliament, National Gallery, Trafalgar Square, West End, etc etc. But good... More

We found this hotel through a web search. When we told the cabbie where we were staying he wasn't quite sure where it was since it shares an address with Club Quarters. When we entered the lobby, we were surprised at how nice it was. Arrived from Paris later in the evening, but did manage to get a drink at... More

The location of the hotel is great, near all the main west end sights and a 1 min walk to the nearest tube station. The hotel itself is impressive and the staff friendly and helpful. We were given a room on the 7th floor and had a view(ish) of Big Ben etc (this may of been due to my request... More

The hotel is conveniently located next to London's biggest tourist attractions. It also is just steps away from the tube, which makes travel throughout the city a bit less daunting. I addition to the tourist attractions, the Grand is walking distance to the West end. I would recommend for anyone who wants a nice, clean place to stay in a... More

This hotel is in an ideal location for visiting some of London's top tourist destinations. It is short distance to Trafalgar Square, but also an easy walk to #10 Downing, Westminster Abbey, Big Ben, Parliament, London Eye, West End theatre district. Short walk to the Tube (Charing Cross) and to bus stops (at Trafalgar Square) which can get you anywhere... More

Stayed here for a two nights and found it the perfect location for pretty much everything! Leicester Square, The Strand and the Embankment are literally five minutes walk away and obviously Trafalgar Square is right on the doorstep. We arrived a few hours early to just leave our cases but we were actually able to check in to a room... More
