Disappointed
Room was amazingly small with a very tiny window and bed linen was slightly dirty. During our stay we were never given a room key as the key system was down which was very annoying. We had to ask a member of staff to escort us every time we went back to the room. During breakfast we asked for two fried eggs which didn’t arrive for 25 minutes which was no good as by then we had finished our breakfast ! The server could not really speak English so couldn’t understand why we no longer wanted them. Stopped here before and found it to be very good, but this time it was appalling.

This hotel was like Fawlty Towers. The entire stay the room key cards weren’t working so you had to wait by reception for someone to walk you to your room causing delays. Then there was no electricity on check out day for hours so we had to shower in the dark etc. apparently they had no maintenance to look at it until 10am!

Good location. Room was ok, but a little grubby in places. Soft furnishings in need of updating. Restaurant was fine, food ok but not excellent. Restaurant was very cold at both dinner and breakfast time. Nothing wrong with this hotel, but nothing special either.

Check-in took a long time, there were not enough staff for the amount of people checking in. The hotel was incredibly warm and the temperature control in the room did not work meaning the window had to be fully open all night

The room was very old and small, there was dirt in a towel in the bathroom, the telephone did not work, there was no WiFi information in the room, the tv was pixelated and could not watch properly, the aircon did not work, had the same temperature coming out of it no matter what heat I put it on, and that was very warm. Besides that, the breakfast was good and the staff was excellent! Shame about the poor condition of the room. Not expected from a hotel like Radisson, very disappoint and I don’t think I will be staying with Radisson again.

Great location
We have stayed at this hotel before as the location is fantastic for the theatres. It’s clean and beds are comfortable. However, this time the restaurant had changed and was not as good. The staff were very miserable! Not friendly as on previous visits. Will we stay again, yes as the location is walking distance of Covent Garden and Oxford St. as well as the west end theatres.

Spoiled by room.
This hotel is fantastically located for shopping, dining and central London attractions. The people were very efficient and the reception area and bar were great. The room was very clean though a little cramped. The air conditioning in the room did not work properly as it kept pushing out hot air even though thermostat set to 16 degrees. Added to that the windows were sealed. All in all one of my most uncomfortable nights in London.
