"Well situated for central London, down a leafy street, and very close to the river and Tate Britain. The rooms aren’t huge, but extremely well thought through, so we felt we had plenty of space. Good air-con and shower. Breakfast was great, and the front desk was extremely helpful. Thank you"

STG Hotel London Oxford Street
"Great location for the price and location The hotel needs a bit of maintenance and not having a kettle or iron in the room is a bit of a challenge IMO. However if you need a bed in the city, this was perfect. I would stay again, but honestly a kettle and iron in the room would go a long way"
