Colvile TripAdvisor review

I’ve stayed a number of times and each time I return, it does not disappoint. Understated luxury. All staff are friendly, helpful and attentive. Such a lovely calmness and ambiance throughout the hotel. Nothing feels awkward. As a solo traveller, I feel relaxed in the bar and going down to breakfast. Plus it’s such a delightful breakfast, in terms of both food and service, that you feel you want to relax to take time and enjoy. Staff remember and acknowledge you, which makes you feel like a valued guest. The rooms are spotless and quiet, and the bed is very comfortable. Sometimes I stay just to relax in the hotel, but it’s in a great location. You feel very safe in the area, it’s in a lovely part of London.

Perfect base in Central London - walking distance to many attractions

Jcsvet TripAdvisor review

The look from outside is stunning, in a posh and very central location in London. Pros: - Central location - many attractions at walking distance - Cosy rooms of decent size - soundproof rooms so you dont get street noise - Welcoming staff - Plenty of restaurants, bars, shops in the direct vicinity Cons: - Probably bc it’s a historical building, some elements are ageing. The rooms give a good feel but it’s not a modern or high tech establishment - The bathroom also show signs of ageing - Central heating may have been deficient at that moment (weak heaters, shower not as hot as I would have liked) All in all, i would recommend the hotel for it’s unbeatable location and the well rounded package that is offered.
