倫敦大北方臻品之選飯店(Great Northern Hotel, A Tribute Portfolio Hotel, London)

Everything great. Only one thing wrong . We asked the timing of breakfast with reception and was told it started at 7am. This was not true. It was 8am and meant we could not partake. If we had known this we would not have pre purchased breakfast. Attempted to have cost reimbursed, hotel refused. A pity as all was good except we had to pay for something we did not have.

Remains a firm favourite, perfect location for travelling by train and getting around London. The facilities are great and the staff very friendly and organised, really can’t have any complaints. We stayed the week before Christmas so could ´hear’ the sounds of the neighbourhood and parties a little more than usual if that is a factor for you but I would not trade the location for that.

The hotel itself is beautiful, clean, and very well located next to the train station. However, the room was very small, too small for a couple with low ceilings. Whilst the description stated that it had a business center it did not. There was no room in the bedroom to work, and the lounge was not ideal as they had no proper space or tables. Not a suitable hotel for business people. They did had a coffee machine in the room which I love, but it didn’t work. They did not offer tea, and there was only two small milks so not enough for more than one drink. Strangely even though we were a couple they only had one biscuit seems a strange place to scrimp on. The soaps and shower gels etc were very good with a lovely smell. The bathroom had a fantastic shower. They offer beautiful bathrobes. I would recommend they look at the towels however as there wasn’t one I could use for my hair. The receptionists were young and inexperienced. They offered a basic level of service. Overall, for the price, I wouldn’t recommend this hotel, especially for business.
