10/10 Exceptional

Most convenient location , helpful staff and tidy rooms.
Yi Chun V, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Perfect location for what we wanted to see and do. Room 403 was pretty quiet considering it looks out onto the corner of Leicester sq. staff were very friendly and helpful Not having a bar is not an issue as there are loads of options within a couple of minutes walk.
David, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Brilliant hotel in a great location.

The very lovely lady on reception was excellent. She looked on the system for the best room and gave us one with a great view of Leicester Square(307!) The room itself was very comfortable with a very large bed. The buffet breakfast was again excellent with a large variety of food on offer. The staff there were friendly and efficient. The location couldn't be better, with an easy walk to Covent Garden. We will be back next year!
BARRY, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Perfect location to explore the West End/SOHO

the Thistle Piccadilly is perfectly located, and made for a nice weekend stay in London - we found the hotel comfortable and clean, with helpful staff. Despite being in a central location, it had good noise protection as well.

8/10 Very good

Needs updating, but great location.

I know they are in the process of renovating, but we had an older junior suite. It was as clean as they could make it, but def old. Musty smell if you don’t run the AC. Can’t be the location.

William, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Top Spot for Night at Theatre!

Just what we needed - central location, clean, secure & comfortable - premium price but that’s primarily the consequence of the central SoHo location - great for a night or two only - all staff friendly & obliging
Robert, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The location is perfect, right in the middle of everything! We were able to walk to all! Having the option of breakfast on site was perfect to start the day! Highly recommend!
