Top Waltham Forest Hotel Reviews

Park Plaza London Westminster Bridge

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing stay! Location and room were exceptional."

Strand Palace Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room was quite large with a lovely king bed. Staff was helpful and friendly. Breakfast was extra but very good and a good value. But best was location. Right in the heart of the theatre district and a short walk to most major tourist sights. Highly recommend. Will definitely stay again next to time I'm in London."

Royal National Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Short walk to the Russell Square station. Breakfast was outstanding! They call it a Continental breakfast but it was a full English breakfast. Beds were very comfortable! Our first complaint is that the property doesn’t have air conditioning and the windows only open about 2 inches. We were there in a heat wave and the fan they supplied was rather useless. The other concern is that there are frequent ambulances and the sirens are very loud. They gave us ear plugs, which helped a lot. We would definitely return to this location."

President Hotel

6/10 Okay

"Room have no AC the windows dont open very far and there is no mechanical ventilation. Even the week after a hot spell when the outside had cooled the room stayed hot and uncomfortable to sleep. A fan was provided and I managed to plug it in near the window but the back of the hotel is surrounded by other buildings and seemed to retain heat. I am in London for 4 weeks but I have moved hotels for the remainder. There are plenty of hotels in the vicinity and I have found one with AC for the same price which also includes breakfast (it was extra at The Presedent) At these high prices that is the least I expect. I had no problems with the hotel other than that but being uncomfortable at night and not sleeping well due to the heat was a reason to switch hotels."
