Top hotels in Portsoken
The Tower Hotel, by Thistle
The room was clean but smaller than I thought. We called the front desk for some water and they came with 4 extra bottles of water which was amazing! Overall, I would stay here again.

Breakfast is distinctly average to bellow. Not terrible, not something you’d pay for if you’re not here for work like I was.

Zedwell Piccadilly Circus
Limited amenities. Very small rooms. Boxed in beds. No water, no glases, one pillow, no tv. No onsite restaurant. For the price this isnt acceptable and i clealy should have read the hotel details more. Just expected these as standard. Other than that it was ok. Hallway carpets dirty and well worn. ...
