Futuristic 'spaceship' room design with iPad controls
The Perception Bar is a legitimate nightlife destination
クイックテイク: A polarizing disco-ball of a hotel where the party never stops, the bathroom has no door, and silence is a foreign concept.
@thebonvoyist によるレビュー: I stayed right in the heart of Piccadilly Circus and the energy was unmatched. The room has this sexy, open-plan vibe that's perfect for a fun city trip. You literally step out the door and you're in the middle of everything.

The hype
Travelers either obsess over the cool, futuristic vibe and location or absolutely loathe the lack of privacy and constant noise.
Reality check
The 'open concept' bathroom is the #1 complaint—many guests feel like they are sleeping inside a nightclub toilet.
You are traveling solo or with a partner you are extremely comfortable with
You plan to stay out late and sleep in
You love tech-heavy rooms with iPad-controlled mood lighting
清潔さと保守管理
7.8
Housekeeping: Generally responsive, but the 'party' nature of the hotel means high turnover wear-and-tear is visible.
Bathroom hygiene: Clean surfaces, but the glass partitions show water spots and smudges easily.
Maintenance: High-gloss furniture is prone to scuffs and scratches; carpets in hallways can look tired from heavy foot traffic.
Linens & towels: Crisp and high quality, typical of the W brand.
Odors & scents: Heavy use of the signature W perfume (fig/citrus) to mask the scent of last night's party.

知っておくと良いこと
There is NO swimming pool, despite the 'resort' vibe.
Valet parking is extortionate (~£70/day); use public lots like Q-Park Chinatown instead.
Breakfast is not included in most rates and costs ~£31 per person.

FAQ と隠された便利な使い方
ご予約前に本当に知りたいことすべて
Is there really no door on the bathroom?
In many standard rooms, correct. The sink is in the bedroom, and the shower/toilet are in glass cubicles that offer visual but not auditory privacy.
Is the hotel loud?
Yes. It is one of the loudest hotels in London due to its location and internal club atmosphere.
Does W London have a pool?
No. It has a spa (AWAY Spa) with a steam room and sauna, but no swimming pool.
What is the 'discretionary service charge'?
A 5% fee added to your room rate at checkout. It is technically optional, so you can ask to have it removed.
Can I bring my dog?
Yes, pets up to 20kg are allowed for a fee (approx. £25/night plus cleaning fee).
Is it good for families?
Generally no. The lack of privacy and party atmosphere makes it awkward for parents with kids.

行く前に知っておくべき5つのこと
💡The rooms are incredibly dark; you might need your phone flashlight to find clothes in the closet.
💡The 'open plan' bathroom means the whole room steams up when you shower.
💡Housekeeping can be hit-or-miss with restocking the complex minibar items.
💡You can hear the bass from the club in the hallways even on upper floors.
💡The 'Mega Bar' in suites is cool but insanely expensive (£14 for a mini mixer).
