The location is central. Stepping out puts you right in the heart of things. the parking connected to the hotel made everything really easy (no need to stress about finding a spot!).

Okay stay, some issues noted

beautiful suitesvegan optionscalm presenceexpensive wineslow serviceincomplete order
My event took place in the Belgrave and Westminster suites. Both suites were beautiful, the setup perfect. Food options included vegan choices, very important. Ryan, the toastmaster, helped put in a dance floor and he was a calm presence.
I noticed the minibar wine was expensive, a half bottle cost £22. Slow breakfast service was an issue, this day. The room service order was also incomplete, this morning.
