Perfect home base in London! We stayed in the flat with our two kids and it was an excellent spot from which to introduce them to the city. Easy access to the tube. A lovely selection of pubs, coffee shops, and restaurants just a few steps away. And, surprise perk, the taxi queue at the nearby hotel made catching cabs a breeze. As other reviewers mentioned, there is some noise from the garbage trucks at the hotel loading dock across the street, but we didn't find it too disruptive, especially since we were aware of it in advance. Definitely recommend as a place to stay for anyone looking for a jumping off point for exploring the city.
