“I found the modern design and whimsical touches quite refreshing; Philippe Starck's influence creates a distinct ambiance, especially at the Long Bar. Its central location near Oxford Street means it's well-placed for shopping and seeing the sights. While some past guests have experienced service hiccups, I appreciate the hotel's commitment to wellness via its partnership with Cannaray.”

breakfast variety helpful staff stylish design poor soundproofing inconvenient mirror noisy room

The breakfast had good variety with buffet options. The staff were very polite and helpful from the reception desk to housekeeping. My room had super cleanliness and a stylish design. I enjoyed that.

The rooms aren't very soundproof. You could hear noise from neighboring rooms. That was annoying. The bathroom mirror isn't ideal for electric shaving. It's positioned further from the sink. The mirror position made it less convenient.
