Strand Palace Hotel London

Easy access to the tube and train stations. Easy walking distance to many sites. The staff was very accomadating and helpful, arranged for several site seeing tours. Very comfortable beds, well maintained and serviced rooms. Baths good size by Europen standards. Will definitely stay there again.

The individual room I had was lovely, small but more than adequate. Bathroom was perfect. The location is fabulous, just across from the Savoy and near theaters. I wanted walking distance to the British Museum so it had seemed worth the extra money. Unfortunately, I arrived with a terrible head cold and spent my time in bed. Yikes, I couldn't believe how hard the bed was and the pillows were thin and hard as well. Maybe it is American vs British standards, or that I was in an individual room. I ate at Johnson's, one of their restaurants, what a mistake. Overpriced and terrible food - the pan fried mullet was inedible and the 'specialty bread' was greasy with butter. The replacement was marginally better so I gave up. (Or maybe I just forgot how bad English 'cuisine' is - this wasn't my first time). The prepaid breakfast was expensive but excellent (after two sick days I could finally eat). 15.3 pound cab ride from Paddington Station, not the 10 pounds I was told. The cost was not justified for me.

For the money, you don't get much better in central london. Walk to Covent Garden, Leicester Square, Theater District, etc.

We had never been to London before and this was the perfect place! The location was amazing, and the people were very helpful with anything we needed.

Best point is the location. Can walk to many attractions and subway. Safe. Helpful staff. Clean rooms w/ new linens. Newly remodeled bathroom. Quiet. No bugs. In room coffee. Great value and quality in hotel buffett. Stayed for four nights. Overall very satisfied. Complaints: You only get a half hour a day of free internet connection. You have to pay for more time. The bedroom is small.

If you want a perfectly decent hotel in a great location, this is it. The rooms are small (in the US think Holiday Inn or Motel 6). Perfectly acceptable and much more reasonable than other hotels in London. The best thing about this hotel is the location - in the heart of the theater district and central to everything. You can walk or take a short tube ride to most of the top sites. Staff is nice and very helpful. Would recommend if you aren't planning on staying in your hotel room all day.

We stayed for a long weekend after our wedding. On check in we were upgraded to a bigger room which was lovely. It was very clean and had everything we needed. The staff were very helpful and I really cant find any fault. The location was perfect for us - 2 mins from Covent Garden, lots to see and do within walking distance. Couldnt fault it.

I have stayed here many times and have always been pleased. This time London was experiencing record heat for October. I expected a hotel in this price range to be air conditioned - WRONG. The windows did open and they provided a fan but still it was too warm. It is a fabulous location for sight-seeing, the theatre district and all the entertainment and dining choices around Covent Garden.

Great location. close to tube stations. easy access to everything. didn't mind the small room because we were only there to sleep and the shower facility was very relaxing. could have used something other than a fan i.e. air conditioner as it was hot and humid. I would definitely stay here again.

Perfect location..Central for all the famous sights of London..Room a tad small but then in a city like London you are only in there to sleep..We loved it

Right by Covent Garden, close to the Tube and several top-flight sites, the Strand Palace is a great base for a London adventure! We loved the fact that so much was within a short walk. The room was tight as everything in Europe is, but it was clean and quiet. The staff were excellent as well. Can't think of anything wrong with this hotel. There are cheaper alternatives but few as centrally located.

Surrounded by theatre-land and some very good restaurants.Location could hardly be better for the West End of London. Normal rate is around £200 but Hotel Club's rate of £100 made this a bargain. Did not try the restaurant although it looked fine. Most tourists just want to get out and about to enjoy the attractions and much less expensive eateries. I was the UK host to people from 5 countries. They are all seasoned travellers and all thought this hotel was excellent value.

It was wonderful; the staff was very helpful and timely with their service.

Right in the heart of the West End...a close walk to everything. Small room but good enough

Good location and not very expensive. No airconditioning in the rooms.

I've stayed at The Strand Palace on four trips to London now. It is my hotel of choice in this price range, having tried several others. The location is the best. The rooms are spotless and the stAff are really helpful. It has friendly atmosphere. The only criticism would be that some of the rooms are small so ask for a large one. I will be staying there next time I visit and I recommend it highly.

Loved my stay here -- great location

very pleasant and helpful staff. very clean. ideal location for the theatres. price is good. not happy having to pay 2 pounds per item for baggage storage ie large suitcase or small hand luggage. will stay at this hotel again

Better than expected great location and value for money, will use again next time we visit London

I always stay here when in London. A great hotel in a great location.
