10/10 Exceptional

Location of the hotel is ideal for short weekend trip to London - short distance to Covent Garden, parks and many key London sights. We did not eat breakfast at the hotel, but tried the onsite bar - nice and cozy, but very slow service.
Mika, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Safe hotel at the Scotland Yard!

Very good service. Especially at the breakfast. But the offer was a bit poor on the buffé when paying that price. And where was the Champagne? The bar was absolutely great. Drinks outside the menue was prepared. So was the resturant Parlour. Didn’t try Niklas grill though. Next time perhaps.

Lots of food and drink options in the hotel. Room was comfortable albeit cramped for a king bed room. Was meant to get an upgrade but the message wasn’t passed on to check in staff which is quite disappointing - good area and bed was comfortable
Natalie, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very good location for seeing iconic London sites. Not sure the hotel deserves a 5 star rating given the cost. I expected a bit more. It was nice and not a bad choice for first time London visitors .

We thoroughly enjoyed this hotel. I loved the interiors, the location is amazing, the staff were fantastic. I will definitely go back again.
Monique, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good but could’ve been great.

Great location. Blissfully quiet even though only a few metres away from Whitehall. Marvellous staff. Good room although the sink was chipped and the plug didn’t work properly. Lovely bar with cocktails. Breakfast was nice but overpriced. One issue my wife always complains about is the lack of a plug socket close to a mirror to plug in a hair dryer.

Great room and friendly, helpful staff!

We had an amazing stay. Stopped her overnight on the way to another destination after a long flight. The room was fantastic and the staff were so friendly and accommodating. We would have stayed longer if we had known what a great experience this would be.

Paul, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Had a great stay. The hotel was beautiful, loved the artwork and history. The room was small but well appointed. Lovely breakfast. Had a scrumptious Afternoon Tea in The Parlour. The hotel was right in the heart of Westminster, but was very quiet. Very close to the a tube station and the river. Would stay again.

My third stay at Great Scotland Yard. Always very comfortable and pleasant. The staff are most helpful and nice. Lovely hotel.
Leslie, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The staff were truly wonderful—friendly, welcoming, and incredibly helpful. They took our luggage and stored it securely until our room was ready, which made our arrival stress-free. The bar area in the hotel was a great spot to relax, with a comfortable atmosphere. The location couldn’t be better—just a short walk to the city center. Highly recommend for anyone visiting the city!

8/10 Very good

two nights in london

enjoyed our two nights in the sherlock suite (has 5 sherlock suites) with a very comfy bed, nice living room (small furniture) and great roomy marbled bathroom with tub and separate shower. room 118 has no view and feels like you're in a basement suite, but have to remember it was a police station...not a purpose built hotel at the beginning. great staff and great people at the bar, especially the portuguese bartender that was very friendly and had a good chat. the lobby has great art and artifacts from the police dating back decades on display as well
