Thistle London Trafalgar Square

Whitcomb St., London

Exceptional Location with Spacious Rooms

Tucked away in the vibrant heart of London, on the cusp of Soho and Trafalgar Square, this unassuming gem offers a prime location unmatched by many competitors. Step outside the hotel doors, and within moments you’ll find yourself enveloped by the city’s rich theater scene, diverse restaurants, and charming streets teeming with life. Location aside, the hotel strives to turn visitors into regulars with its astonishingly comfortable sleeping quarters. The beds are indeed remarkably spacious, practically inviting guests to stretch out and unwind at the end of a busy day exploring nearby sights.

The amiable team of staff further rounds out the experience. Always ready to assist with luggage, suggest dining spots, or quickly remedy minor inconveniences, the customer service here is lauded frequently, with notable mention of the efficient and empathetic front desk assistance. Breakfast selections, while diverse, carry a repetitive note according to some, but the charming demeanor of Kim, a standout waitress, bolsters this experience considerably. In certain corners, whispers of ongoing renovations promise a fresher feel, which could soon breathe new life into slightly dated interiors. While the breakfast area may occasionally feel cramped, this spot’s welcoming spirit and central position offer both seasoned travelers and first-timers a memorable stay right in the epicenter of London’s cultural offerings. — Audrey Al Dente
