The Trafalgar St. James, London Curio Collection by Hilton

London|0.63km from The Battle of Britain Monument
I was looking at the Biltmore and the Waldorf but decided to stay at the Trafalgar as they have bigger rooms than the Biltmore and the Waldorf looks like it is in desperate need of an upgrade. Everyone was very polite and helpful apart from one staff member, more on that later. I was upgraded to a Suite on arrival but requested a toom with two beds instead which was granted. The Nelson double room is very spacious and modern. It faintly smelled of mothballs whenever you entered the room and the smell then quickly disappeared. We noticed that one of the beds was sagged in the middle and this was very quickly resolved by the maintenance team and was not an issue for us at all. The only reason i mention it in my review is because Alejandra apologised a thousand times for this “inconvenience” and even send us Macaroons and drinks to the room as an apology. During checkout, Alejandra apologised again and made sure our stay was perfect. There was a key card under the bed which was covered with dust as was the carpet under the bed. Cleanliness regarding this could obviously be better as dust can trigger allergies. The service of the staff at Trafalgar is above that of all other Hilton properties in London and certainly a step above from general hospitality service in Europe. I would give the service at Trafalgar a 9 based on European standards and a 7 based on Middle-Eastern and Asian standards. Breakfast was so highly rated in many reviews of this hotel which also influenced my choice, i was expecting an absolute feast. Unfortunately, breakfast was quite disappointing for us. Staff was great apart from someone who i can only describe as a North-African young woman with shoulder length curls who did not want to give us one of the three empty tables available in the Breakfast room with only 40 minutes available for Breakfast as she was keeping those for families of 7. This is rather absurd and we ended up taking one of the tables anyway as i wasn’t going to sit where she suggested which was away from everyone else. Breakfast in any hotel, especially 5* is always based on first come, first serve. You can’t deny your guest seating space at breakfast as if you were running a dinner service. Vegan options are very, very limited. Fruit selection is even more basic than what you can get at any supermarket in London. There was only Cantaloupe, Watermelon and Pineapple. There were Apples and Bananas for grabs but that is still not enough. Pastries are miniatures which is really shameful for a breakfast buffet. Only sausages available were Pork, no vegan and no Chicken so unfortunately no sausages for me. It’s basically a full English and that’s it. You could order A-La-Carte but that wasn’t special either. We had Amex Platinum credit so we used that for one of the dishes which was not special for the £15 asking price. Room service was basic as well. Food arrived with a very friendly staff member but it was slightly cold. All in all it’s a good hotel fo

Excellent hotel
The Royal Horseguards Hotel, London
4.5/572 Reviews
In the very center of London, there should be no other hotel in this price range that can compare to this location. It is a ten-minute walk to Chinatown and a twenty-minute walk to Buckingham Palace. The ordinary rooms are small but clean and tidy. The minibar is free and the service is regular. In terms of quality, I will choose here again next time I live in London.
London Marriott Hotel County Hall
4.4/592 Reviews
Waterloo and Southwark
We stayed at the Marriott County Hall just before the Easter weekend and had the most amazing stay! The hotel was perfect for us, it was clean, in a great location and staff were so so helpful! Every member of staff we spoke to made us feel so welcome. The bedrooms are well designed with plenty of space. The bathroom was perfect and we really liked the Molton Brown toiletries in the bathroom. We loved every minute of our stay at this hotel and couldn’t recommend it more! I really hope to return again in the future!!
Premier Inn London County Hall
4.2/545 Reviews
Waterloo and Southwark
Not the most luxurious of hotels, but so conveniently located, that I can overlook that. I found the staff extremely helpful and congenial. Some reviews say this is not so, but I disagree. What you should know if you decide to go to this location: 1. If you plan to stay for more than three days, upgrade to Premier Plus. 2. Add breakfast to your stay. 3. Purchase tissues, toilet paper, and other such necessities at the local Boots store before your first night. You won't find tissue in your room. You can get all the toilet paper you want if you ask, however. But they are small rolls and don't last long. 4. Bring hooks, over the door perhaps, and suction hooks for mirrors. 5. Wifi is subpar. Don't pay. It is supposed to come with Premium Plus, but it doesn't work, and it certainly doesn't work on three devices as advertised. Just go with free and suffer through. 6. Restaurants in the area are great, especially the sushi one (make a reservation). Several restaurants are in the County Hall building.
