 This is a small complaint but I so look forward to a good cup of tea when I travel in the UK and the tea at breakfast was a weak and lukewarm disappointment 
 I spent one night here on a long layover between Turkey and my home in the States This was the perfect place as I could take the tube followed by a short cab ride It is walking distance from the Underground but with luggage its a hassle The room was cozy and well appointed the bathroom sumptuous WiFi free I had a good Scotch whiskey in the bar what else and dinner in the dining room The food was fine although I don t think I would eat here if I wasn t staying here In the morning I had the generous Continental breakfast Staff was friendly and helpful They extended my stay by a bit until I needed to leave for the airport I would have cheerfully stayed longer As for value its not cheap but what habitable hotel in London is Since the Basil Street closed some years ago I haven t found a reasonably priced hotel in London to which I would return Until now
