Hotel Club: Strand Palace Hotel London

Reviews

• Great location, great hotel

  Just a block away from Covent Garden, a lot of tube stations nearby. The Hotel is very good, after its recent renovation the rooms have become smaller but are more modern in decoration. I usually stay at a Club room which has LCD TV, Ideal Standard WC and very nice robes.Its breakfast is among the best for a 3 star hotel.

• A bit down at heel, but ok

  Sitting right in the middle of the Strand, just across the road from the Savoy, The Strand Palace is an eight floor hotel which is about as close to the theaters as it's possible to be (so long as that theater is the one currently showing Joseph).Despite the very shiny reception area, and the coated doorman opening the unfeasibly heavy front doors, it is however far from a palace. The hallways are quite shabby, with the plywood panel doors being badly scratched and the carpets looking pretty tired. The rooms are densely packed, and it's quite noisy.My room is a "deluxe double" and is about twelve square with a small bathroom attached. It does have proper wooden shutters through which help keep out the noise of the street below more than curtains would be.So, its far from a luxury stay, and for the same money you could stay in some much nicer places, but probably not quite as handy for the city centre.So basically it's OK, just a bit shabby.
