Hotel Cafe Royal (London, United Kingdom)

Filled with history, modernised yet preserved, this hotel boasts an unforgettable ambiance. Guests loved the well-blended mix of contemporary and traditional aspects, noting that first impressions associate the hotel with the term, “chic”. The spacious rooms and bathrooms are a surprising delight, given its city central location and age. Guests also enjoyed the futuristic remote-controlled “smart room”, and the added USB electrical sockets.

Guests were impressed with the onsite dining. With three restaurants, and three bars/lounges, it’s amazing that each one is often filled with visitors not even staying in the hotel. However, you can be assured to always find a table. Each dining venue is unique, and each is gorgeously decorated. The Café is a guest favourite. The Oscar Wilde Bar is a work of art on its own, with its luxurious Louis XIV décor. Here, you can get an amazing afternoon tea experience.

This hotel boasts one of the best locations in London. Situated just two steps from the famous Piccadilly Circus, this hotel is surrounded by some of the best shopping in the city, and one of the most liveliest theatre districts in Europe. Guests highly suggest a room with a view of Regent Street – it’s a people watcher’s paradise. Foodies won’t be far from the best dining in town either, with Covent Garden a short stroll away, Mayfair across the street, and Chinatown a few blocks east. Though if you prefer to enjoy a night in, there is a Whole Foods next door worth visiting.

Despite the amazing dining venues, the breakfast served does not meet guest expectations of a five-star hotel. Guests say they were disappointed with the offerings.
