    There were two lifts for 7 floors and hundreds of rooms, and they didn’t work properly. Constant queuing

    My room was lovely and in a quiet location of the hotel, just the elevator was not very good.

    The elevator was inadequate. I did not mind, my room was on the second floor and I walked. It’s a big place so it’s a long walk though to get to the stairs and up to your room if you’re in the back of the hotel.

    Breakfast. Not enough fresh and healthy choices. Noisy breakfast room with loud pop music. Large hotel with only 2 lifts. You need to queue for the lift a long time every time.

    The lifts were horrible… for the hotel operating at full capacity only 2 working elevators is the shame…lines before lifts were long, it took me more than 10 minutes each time to reach the 7th floor

    location is amazing. Reception team and housekeeping staff were helpful and always available to help

    Elevators take forever so try and take it at off peak times

    Great location, very clean - I got sick after my flight over and it was a good place to rest and recover (although quite expensive when I had to extend my stay beyond what I’d initially booked)

    The elevator is a really nightmare seriously think about it twice. It is only 2 elevators serving 8 floors hotel.

    The location was really good as it is in the center of everything, Coffee , grocery, restaurant and bar were there on the G floor . Oxford St. was in the corner ( lots of shopping centers) Hyde park And marble Arch station was a 5 minute walk.

    Like every one else I think there are few elevators to the numbers of guests. We stayed at the 6 floor, and only used the elevators a few times the 3 nights we started at the hotel. The rest of the times we took the stairs. We are “young” so no problems. It won’t stop us from coming back. It is a very good hotel with a good location. However I wound not recommend it if you have a disability.

    Nice hotel with big clean rooms.

    The waiting time and performance of the lifts. Just two lifts for everyone and their luggage. We stopped at every floor when leaving (6 times) no room in the lift as was full.

    At breakfast my mother asked if there was fried bread, she was told no. Then a waitress brought some fried bread to our table, had asked the chef to make it for her. The shower was lovely.

    We were a group of 10 and had asked to be next to each other, but that was not the case when we arrived. However the staff did their best to sort it out upon arrival. One room was asked to be specially prepped as this was a birthday trip for one of us. They assigned wrong people of the group to the prepped room... There were only 2 working elevators for the whole hotel as the others were closed due to maintenance. And 2 elevators for 700 rooms..... It was a joke, and not a good one....

    Nice room. Really nice bed. Very clean. Refrigerator that was restocked daily with water and cola.

    The hotel has only two lifts and waiting for lift long. The distance from the lift to the room is quite long. More lifts are required. It was un precedented that we were asked to pay £50 extra to get the room before 3pm when the room was ready to receive us.

    The hotel is well located in Oxford Street.

    The elevators are a real mess: up to 10 min. waiting time to overcome those 8 floors, with only two elevators working simply insufficient for a big hotel. The friendliness at the reception and during breakfast varied from fine to ignorant. The outside noise was too high (from probably the overall airconditioning, since we had switched off our in the room and had a seemingly calm room facing to the inside). Why is there only Arab added as language to English around the hotel, what about French, Spanish, German, Chinese, etc.?

    The room was rather spacious and there were complimentary drinks etc. in the fridge (Deluxe Twin). The breakfast was good, in particular the full-English version. The location near Hyde Park and next to Oxford Street is perfect.
