    Good [& relatively quiet] location, well appointed, friendly staff

    Restaurant service [dinner] very slow - especially considering it was c.6pm and almost empty. Breakfast indifferent quality - and not included in room rate.

    "Really good" (107114586)

    Overall, we were delighted with the hotel, and the staff were lovely, extremely helpful.

    The only thing which was disappointing was breakfast on our second (and last) morning. There was not nearly enough hot food and everyone was having to go to and from the buffet for one item at a time as it came through, which made for a very strange meal. Breakfast the first morning was brilliant, though!

    well placed in central london, breakfast good. staff helpful and hotel kept clean .

    rooms small and had to ask for room with air con as not all rooms have this, confirm this when you are booking. Staff gave us a room with air con without any problems.

    There were no good points.

    Upon my arrival at the hotel we were told that, due to a computer glitch, there were no double rooms available so we didn't end up staying there.

    "Has great potential to be great but typical large chain hotel syndrome, understaffed by probably badly paid staff and not well managed." (108084261)

    Check-in staff were very good and curteous, good location for westend..

    Room service was not good, had to chase breakfast, when it arrived orange juices were apple juices (apparently they ran out!!!) and two teas were only one tea, croissants were stale. Only one barman at the bar during busy evening..

    "I have stayed in this Hotel for a number of years now and like its convenience to both Picadilly at the top of the street and Leicester Square at the bottom of the street. Because it is situated in a side street there is no noise outside and thus makes for a good nights sleep.The beds are comfortable and firm.The food is well prepared and tasty. The staff are helpful and friendly.This is a good value for money hotel and we always enjoy out stay." (97675232)

    Central location but very quiet. The staff are friendly and efficient.

    The location. Comfortable beds.

    Very poor quality for a four star hotel. Room was very small and breakfast was not included which is incredible seeing as we paid £200 for the room. Peolple checking in on the day had cheaper rooms with breakfast included. Service was very slow we waited over 2 hours for replenishment of our tea and coffee supplies and left before they arrived.

    "The one night stay was very good, the only complaint I have is the fact that when having breakfast in the morning, the service was a little on the slow side, with regard to getting tea, toast, and when the tea did arrive, we had to send the waitress back for milk." (97325183)

    The room was clean, the beds very comfortable, the air conditioning system, which in the summer is a boon and other hotels do not have this.

    Hotel clean and welcoming. Staff friendly. Good location.

    We booked a deluxe room, but were very disappointed with the standard. That and the fact it was tucked away in a corner of the corridor.

    "Good central location but as a conseqeunce you pay more and get less. Hotel is dated and a little shabby. Had a twin room on the 4th floor - adequate but no air-conditioning. Although there was a window that opened it was too noisy outside to try and sleep with it open and therefore I had to sweat instead. Bathroom cramped and also dated but adequate. Other people's doors slammed really loudly although this seems a problem in most hotels." (3304890662)

    Central location.

    Dated, expensive and no air-conditioning in room. Breakfast not included in price.

    "Location of this hotel is good being just off the square itself. Rooms are OK, clean, good decor etc. No fridge and quite small, but still OK. Queue for checkin a no no (15 minutes! - 1 memeber of staff). Food was to die for, literally, it was horrible. I'd read a couple of reviews before going so new to body swerve the breakfast, but 1st night took the easy option of dinner in the hotel and regretted it. My advice, for breakfast, head straight across the street to Orsini's Sandwhich place. They were very friendly and all food looks quality. Their ciabatta's were exceptional and great value for money. For dinner, there are tons on places very close by. The best I tried was the Tex Mex place and the bottom of the street to the right (don't remember the name, great fajita's)" (3304446062)

    "I should have been told that there was no heating - I would not have booked Thistle. In 2006 in London I find this unacceptable." (3304328820)

    The location is very good, easy access to most places, enjoyed the walks very much

    I have kept the newspapers weather section for the two nights my friend and I stayed at Thistle and it was zero degrees overnight. There is no heating at all on floor 4 - it was extremely cold in the room, which made sleeping very difficult - I did try many times to turn the heating up as I had not been told that there was no heating. On the second night a porter installed a small heater in the room which did help. The hotel gave me a discount on the price but obviously this did not make up for the cold experience.Very disappointed with Thistle although I have stayed many times before obviously only in the summer

    "Although we only stayed the one night the breakfast service was very poor. The waiters that served us were very slow,did not get our orders correct and did not seem to have the experience expected in a London Hotel." (3304240240)

    Although the room was clean, bright and very well equipt. We found it very small.
