“From what I've observed, the Art Deco design, masterminded by Philippe Starck, infuses a sense of stylish luxury; the secret Blind Spot bar promises bespoke cocktails for those in the know, while the communal spaces buzz with a vibrant energy. It's my understanding that its position near Covent Garden places guests at the heart of London's theatre district, making it quite ideal for cultural exploration. In my opinion, it's a compelling choice for those seeking a blend of style and convenience.”

Location is good. Rooms need work
slow check-instained chair
i was disappointed the check-in process felt slow. there were many staff around, but no one offered help with luggage. our room, a beautiful king bed room, had some cleanliness issues. i noticed wet stains on the chair and the coffee maker looked quite old and needed cleaning before use. the unusual lighting controls near the bed were confusing too.
