    Quiet at the weekend Booked this hotel as a last minute getaway for my girlfriend and me. The room was to a very high standard with everything you'd expect from a luxury hotel in Central London. But it's the little details that impressed me, like having an iPod docking station in the room. However, don't expect a lot to be going on around the hotel as most of the shops/bars are closed at the weekend, but it's only a 5 minute walk to Liverpool Street.The staff were friendly and very helpful. I was a bit surprised that the hotel bar shuts in the afternoon but otherwise this is a perfect hotel for those who want a quiet romantic stay in a chic yet understated central London hotel. Oh and if you get the chance, order the club sandwich on room service like I did after a night on the town - it's the best hangover cure ever!

    The restaurant, Bonds, is smart without being pretentious. Great food, and an accommodating staff who will take special requests that are not on the menu. A delight for the senses.

    Love the hotel...but Check the the restaurant will be open. Finacial aera is a ghost town on weekends.

    Fantastic hotel If at all possible arrive early so as to be able to enjoy the relaxation of the beautiful rooms and en suites. Soak in the bath whilst watching T.V. Definitely recommended.

    Quiet weekend retreat Take in Bond street a far more relaxing experience than the other shopping districts, just yards from the chaos of oxford street and full of all the boutiques.Try the cake shop by Bonhams auction house-recommended

    Great location in the financial district and a top Conde Naste pick Great location in the financial district, quick access to the Liverpool Station/Stansted Express. Great copola, small boutique feel. Good food, quite. Not frilly. All business.

    Customer focused We liked this place. The location is good, the lobby is impressive and for our weekend trip was wonderfully calm, though of course the City itself is calm at weekends. The room was spacious and well-furnished. Staff were attentive and courteous. Two gripes. The cost of the films seemed a bit over the top. And the ventilation system might need attention. We returned to our room after Friday night out to find a strong smell of fags. Yuk! We'd turned the AC off when we went out, cos who needs it in February? My guess is that the vent might come out near one of those sorry gaggle of smokers you see huddled outside offices and pubs. Who knows? But the response of reception when I reported this was just as it should be: our room was switched without any fuss and all was well. And reception apologised again as we checked-out two days later. So we had a good stay, and can commend this focus on our needs. I would say this hotel is good value for a weekend stay.
