The room was clean, but it’s a bit tired, needs a face lift. The windows were not double glazed as you could feel the wind coming in. No mirror where you would dry your hair.

Spoiled by room.
This hotel is fantastically located for shopping, dining and central London attractions. The people were very efficient and the reception area and bar were great. The room was very clean though a little cramped. The air conditioning in the room did not work properly as it kept pushing out hot air even though thermostat set to 16 degrees. Added to that the windows were sealed. All in all one of my most uncomfortable nights in London.

Stay was overall okay, wouldn’t choose to stay again. Upon arrival at hotel I was told there was not a room for me at that location and a black cab was called to take me to another hotel location with a room available due to booking system issue. This was not ideal at rush hour and would be good to know this in advance so I could travel straight to the correct hotel. The lady at reception told me she had put me in a nice room after the above experience however the room was very basic, 1 single bed small room with cramped bathroom however small room can be expected in London hotels. Room was clean and bed was comfortable, definitely recommend refurb of the rooms not very homely or cosy.

Arrived and was told there were no rooms available despite the booking being accepted and having received emails asking how to make my stay comfortable. Well having a room available would have been a good start! Reception staff were dismissive and rude. They moved me to their Waterloo hotel but I had to get myself there and they insisted I prepay before arriving at the hotel (and then refused to give a receipt). Waterloo was fine but expensive as I had to pay taxi fares, until checkout where they argued about providing a receipt. In the end I got one emailed me after another rude encounter from reception staff. Highly disappointed especially for their room prices. Won’t risk staying here again.

Go somewhere else
Receptionist was rude upon check-in (particularly around the £50 pre authorisation required as “policy” on a credit card). First room was filthy, bathroom was unusable due to strong odours emanating from the shower, shower tray filthy and carpet soiled. Was relocated to another room which whilst marginally cleaner, still had heavily stained carpets, was dated and was no bigger than a cupboard.

Disappointed
The room was like a shoe box - was glad it was just me. Cannot imagine how 2 people would be able to navigate the non-existent floor space together. When I got in the window had been left open and it was freezing at 6pm. Couldn’t get warm. Toilet made a terrible noise every time it was flushed. Had to queue to check in - no upgrade available for my Gold membership. Told cleaners I didn’t need my room servicing but they came in anyway whilst I was out. Very expensive for what you get - not value for money. Disappointed

We checked in at 2:30 pm and were told the room wasn't ready. No problem there. Then when we got back to the hotel at 10:45, we were put in a truly awful room by the lift. The night desk then said the only thing they could do would be to put us in a smaller cheaper room - the difference has not yet been refunded, we had a miserable night, and indifference was what we were greeted with when we complained. Have stayed in many Radisson Blus and have never been treated so poorly

First stay with several issues
I have stayed here multiple times and have generally had few if any problems. Although this time had a few. The boiler broke so one morning I took an ice cold shower. It broke again two days later (during the day) which prevented me from having a work out because I knew I would be taking yet another ice cold shower that evening. Luckily it was fixed later that evening. Also, the fire alarm went off three times one evening but luckily all of them went off before I went to sleep (think the last one went off at 11pm). I don’t know what happened here. I also tried calling the front desk, guest services and the concierge multiple times but nobody ever answered making me wonder if my phone even worked (when I did come downstairs to talk to someone it seemed like it was fully staffed). I was offered a discount off my overall stay and hotels.com offered an additional credit. I didn’t give much of a fuss but I can see how others would have not let them off so easy. They did offer the opportunity for me to talk to the manager. Hopefully, all of this was a fluke since my earlier stays were fine. Food and location are excellent. Gym is small but you can also go to the larger gym at the other Radisson Blu across the street.
