While not terrible, I just felt like the Indigo just didn’t quite hit the mark for me. The room condition was a bit subpar. Noisy wooden floors that were in pretty rough shape and a really dirty area rug under the bed. No closed closet, just a hanging rack. It served the purpose but I would have preferred storing clothes and luggage out of sight. No shower door - only a half-glass wall so water does end up in the vanity area which was pretty annoying. I had a balcony room with no chairs or small table on the balcony - zero furnishings. Basically, you can go stand out there and look around but don’t get too comfortable. Balcony door is ridiculously heavy to open/close. Drapes didn’t close all the way to provide true blackout. While the bed felt way too hard upon first trying it, I have to say that I slept excellent every night. Pillows were also quite good. All staff I encountered, especially the front desk team, were very friendly and helpful. Great central location for exploring the city, albeit a bit too busy/noisy for my liking - I was surprised to see how busy Leicester Square gets. All in all, certainly not a terrible stay but just not quite enough to re-book. I’ll try something else out when next in London.

Not what we expected

It’s almost good… but disappointing in many ways. The rooms are quite basic for the money and didn’t smell fresh. Elevators are a nightmare and takes forever to get to your floor. On the plus side, the AC is excellent and the bathrooms are lovely.
