STAY AWAY FAR FAR AWAY
I am giving bonstars due to the fact that they offered zero assistance when my entire trip was cancelled and I was hospitalized. They absolutely refused to offer a credit for future stay or even consider charging me a one night fee.

Excellent choice of hotel ,special thanks. to Juan , Kalifa, Adeline ( Rockwell ), the super attentive manager of Rockwell (didn’t get his name )and his assistant , Fred the night manager and the breakfast team of Rooftop . Everyone were very gracious, kind and efficient ,we greatly appreciated all the help and directions which made our stay worthwhile. This hotel is very clean and we felt safe though near Trafalgar Square and their restaurant ,Rockwell,has great selections of small plates , we liked the Bao ( tender and flavorful beef)cod croquettes, slider and of course the desserts limoncellomisu, soft donuts and wife’s favorite Aperol spritz .

Probably one of the best London Hotels
From initial checkin, through to final checkout, it is really difficult to fault any aspect of this hotel. For me its the small detail, staff and location that really makes a hotel, and this hotel delivers. Large comfy king beds, quiet clean room full of luxury touches. Located in walking distance to all sights. Breakfast on the rooftop is a must!

This was an excellent hotel with an excellent location. The staff were professional and very helpful!! The only reason I gave 4 stars was because of construction going on in the lobby while we were there - a bit of a disruption. However, we were warned ahead of time that the construction was going on. I wish we had stayed after the construction was completed!
