“Cocktails in the Lobby Bar”

Once through the doors to the lobby you are greated by an enormous open area with plenty of seating, huge vases with fantastic plants and unusual... More

“ALMOST AS GOOD AS EVER”

We stayed here overnight yet again when passing through London and found it as good as ever. We were greeted at Reception by name with recognition that we prefer a corner, double aspect room and our usual choice of newspaper. Given that it is months between our visits, this is impressive. The room was very comfortable and well appointed -... More

My wife and I stayed at One Aldwych late May. The hotel is in the best location in Covent Gardens. Whilst the rooms are pretty small the service and attention to detail more than makes up for this.

Beautiful hotel, excellent service, rooms a bit small but it seems that is always the case in London. Room was gorgeous,staff are extremely helpful and friendly - really first class service and nothing was too much trouble - I had forgotten my iphone 5 charger and they immediately brought one to the room.
