 I was upgraded but the room was still tiny and crowded though elegantly decorated There is apparently no escaping London s cramped hotel quarters even when paying nearly 200 pounds a night without breakfast 
 The hotel is in a lovely 19th century red brick building in the up scale neighborhood near Cadogan Square on the edge of Knightsbridge The atmosphere is nice and the staff our outstanding The location is conveniently located for the underground and buses and Buckingham Palace is about a nice 20 minute walk from the hotel I was able to use a lovely hotel common area for a working brunch with a colleague with nice food at reasonable price
