Solid 4 star hotel
Clean and comfortable but no door service which is a shame as they have a heavy door which is awkward to manage with a suitcase. The pump for the showergel is also annoying to use.

You do pay a lot for the location but it is perfect for the West End. Two minutes walk to the nearest tube station. The room itself was a decent size, amazing shower and good facilities. The staff were friendly and efficient. Many, many restaurant on the doorstep.

Short break in london
I never really do reviews but this wasn’t a very good experience at all We always stay in the raddison blu Leicester Square when visiting London I booked a slightly upgraded room and requested a view of Leicester Square which I know is just a request. Upon check in I was told that there had been a flood and that there wasn’t a room available for us We were being moved to a hotel in Covent Garden . If I’d have wanted to stay in Covent garden then I would have booked a hotel in Covent Garden I don’t believe that there was any such flood as the gentleman checking us in told me that the hotel was over booked. We like to stay in Leicester Square as it’s not far from all the activities we had planned We had booked sheesh and j sheeky both a short walk away We like to end our evenings in the hippodrome casino again a short walk We shop in bond street and fortnum and mason , it’s not far to carry our shopping back , this would be impossible staying at Covent Garden which has the worst tube station in the whole of London When I explained this to the receptionist he told me he had one room but that it was a twin room We reluctantly accepted it It was probably the worst hotel room I’ve ever stayed in I reminded me of a dungeon and the bed was rock hard Horrible room We were offered 2 free drinks in the hotel bar I really didn’t feel like a valued returning guest at all

The hotel is in need of some renovations. Common areas do not match the rooms quality. Great place to just lay your head down but rooms are nothing to write home about. Customer service is subpar, not very welcoming or pleasant.

Fantastic
It's was great. Stayed in a suite on floor 1, so outside noise was a bit of an issue, but you don't book a hotel on the Square if you're not willing to put up with that. Only improvement - there's absolutely no room instructions - wifi access, breakfast time, air-con - tried the TV (the wifi seems weirdly to work via the TV) but nothing. But overall, the room was wonderful, staff amazing, breakfast excellent, location superb.
