Just What I Was Looking For
Decided to take a 2 day layover in London on our way to India for business. Was looking for a nice hotel in the middle of the action given the short stay. This hotel was perfect, in the heart of London walking distance to many major sites. I would consider this more in the boutique hotel category based on US standards. Small rooms but with all the right amenities. As a well traveled person, this hotel was spot on.

Birthday Weekend
Lovely hotel, clean and elegant. Perfect location. The shower was unusable in the room. It was only hot at a really high pressure. We asked for it to be fixed. They sent someone but it was not repaired. We were given a new room which was wonderful. Very friendly staff.

Very comfortable and well located hotel
We had a very good experience staying here. The hotel is on a quiet street but yet located near a very busy and lively area of Trafalgar Square. I am a light sleeper and found it to be very quiet at night. The bed was very comfortable and the room well appointed and decorated. The staff were all very friendly. We just had 1 night so a very quick stay but managed to have dinner and breakfast out nearby and did a bit of shopping. We took the Heathrow Express train into Paddington and then the Bakerloo line to Charring Cross station. From there its a short walk to the hotel. We will definately stay at this hotel again on our next trip to London.

Perfect location for theatreland
Just around the corner from Trafalgar square and Leicester square and 5 minutes to Piccadilly, this hotel provides the perfect location for a night out at the London theatre. The rooms are very quiet and comfortable and the staff are very efficient with a personal touch which enhances the stay. Breakfast was a real treat with an excellent selection of both hot and cold food well worth the cost. A free left ;luggage arrangement after check out on the final day allows an extra few hours sight seeing luggage free in Central London. The room was large, quiet and spotlessly clean with a very modern bathroom and free tea and coffee making facilities. The room was available through e bookers with a big discount which made it possible for us to stay at such a quality hotel. Without the discount we would not have afforded this luxury but it was well worth the fee for such a quality stay. Wish we had booked 2 nights.

Short walk from hotel
A tesco express shop in Trafalgar square allows you to purchase sandwiches, fruit and other food stuffs for a days sightseeing at lower prices than central London cafes. Also purchase small wine bottles and plastic glasses before entry to the theatre to have that interval drink without breaking the bank.

Great little hotel with a friendly staff in a convenient location
I stayed at the Royal Trafalgar on a last minute business trip. The hotel was conveniently located. Although I typically stay with Hilton and find their rooms large and comfortable, I wasn't bothered by the small size of the hotel rooms as they were very comfortable and incredibly clean. The staff was also very friendly and professional

If you've forgotten anything there's a two-story Boots drugstore around the corner with a small grocery area and all of the cosmetics and toiletries you could ever want. Also a Whole Foods and great coffee in the same area.

A Nice Stay In Central London
The Thistle Trafalgar is one of the best locations in London. I arrived early after an overnight flight, and while a room was not available for check-in, the staff did work with me to help get me into a room once one had been cleaned and serviced. Though no fault of the hotel, some of the guests can be loud, particularly in the wee hours of the morning when they are coming in from a late night out. To be so centrally located, the street noise was not really noticeable due to the fact that the hotel has solid double pane windows. I would definitely stay at this hotel again. I found the staff helpful and friendly and the rooms clean and comfortable.

What a location
A hidden gem. The room we had was smallish but stylish and comfortable and with everything we needed for an overnight stay. Staff very welcoming and our only gripe was the breakfast as not everything available but apart from that - will definitely stay there again
