Lovely hotel in a busy area but as on a side street nice and quiet. Nice size room. Comfortable bed. Great facilities. Pillow menu always fun. Courtyard view was the view of a roof so not quite as expected.. The Elephant bar was a nice space for cocktails and great bar food. The other bar was closed during our visit but no notice given. Dined at Erksted in the evening where the food was fab. As expected. Although there was no MD on arrival, and the Somelier was pre occupied unloading wine glasses from boxes through out the evening. Considering there were only 4 tables being used the front of house seemed a little dis jointed and it let the experience down a little.

Loved this hotel, the location, the speakeasy bar, the delicious breakfast. 5 stars for me despite the tiny room and lack of a full length mirror and a plug in the bathroom for a hairdryer. I had to dry my hair in a compact mirror :(

Below expectations!
Hotel reception did not honour VIP upgrade on check in and tried charging me for an available upgrade room and would not offer the gold status upgrade. Our room wasn’t cleaned after our first night despite requesting, we had to repeatedly request coffee and mini bar refills.

I've never stayed at a hotel where I felt so much like a valued guest. Service is above and beyond. At the end of an 8-night stay, staff made me feel like I was leaving friends behind on our departure day. The hotel itself is in a perfect location between Westminster and Soho in the West End right near Trafalgar Square with both the Embankment and Charing Cross tube stations within easy walking distance. The decor is charming and oozes with history in line with the Scotland Yard theming. Their hidden speakeasy is a gem offering cocktails and jazz music a couple nights a week, as well as the 40 Elephants bar which we frequented a couple times for a nightcap and upscale snacks. We also loved our courtyard-facing room which was small but still felt luxurious, efficient, and filled with perfect touches. We loved having bedside outlets, a Nespresso machine with pods replenished daily, a cooling drawer kept stocked with both spring and sparkling water, a towel-warming rack, a bidet, and super-thick robes and slippers. The bed was supportive but cloud-like with a very warm (sometimes too warm) fluffy duvet. The water pressure in the shower with both rain head and hand-held wand was amazing. We returned to the room most nights to find chocolates waiting on our nightstands with a fresh fruit bowl also delivered to our breakfast table several times. I can say without exaggeration that the Great Scotland Yard hotel exceeded my expectations in multiple ways.
