De ce o iubesc oamenii
- The 'Retreat' underground wellness complex with a stunning pool and cabanas
- Guest-only 'Residence' club that feels like a private living room away from the crowds
- Incredible soundproofing that makes Leicester Square feel miles away
Privire rapidă: A engineering marvel of a hotel that manages to be a zen sanctuary in the middle of London's most chaotic tourist trap.
Evaluat de @meetcutelondon: I stayed in this stunning room at The Londoner and felt like a total VIP. The moody lighting sets such a cool vibe, and the bathroom technology blew my mind. It’s the perfect spot to crash after exploring the city.

Reality check
Service can sometimes feel 'corporate' or slow at peak times, and the price tag sets extremely high expectations that small rooms might not meet for some.
- You love the idea of a 'vertical resort' where you don't have to leave the building to eat, drink, or swim
- You are seeing a West End show (you are literally next door to theaters)
- You value high-tech, modern design over creaky historic charm
Curățenie și Întreținere
9.5
- Housekeeping: Impeccable. Reviews consistently mention 'gleaming' surfaces and twice-daily service (turndown included).
- Bathroom hygiene: Spotless. High-tech toilets and modern grouting mean no mold or grime issues reported.
- Maintenance: Like new. The hotel opened in 2021 and is maintained to a very high standard.
- Linens & towels: Plush, high-thread-count linens and thick, branded towels.
- Odors & scents: Signature scent throughout the lobby (woodsy/amber); rooms smell fresh and neutral.

Înainte să rezervi
Bine de știut
- A 2025 court ruling banned amplified busking in Leicester Square, significantly reducing street noise compared to older reviews.
- The pool has restricted hours for children (usually 8:00-9:30am and 3:30-5:00pm); it is adults-only otherwise.
- A discretionary service charge (often 2.5-3.5%) is added to bills.
Ce să împachezi
- Swimwear for The Retreat (the pool is a highlight)
- Smart casual outfits for The Residence and rooftop bars (dress code is enforced)
Geniu pentru Cameră
Selecții de top
- Corner Suites for dual-aspect views and significantly more space
- Deluxe King City View on high floors (Level 5+) for skyline vistas without the street level bustle
Camere de evitat
- Lower floor rooms facing the square if you are extremely sensitive to vibration (though soundproofing is top-tier)
- Standard King rooms if you have more than two suitcases—storage is tight

“I would appreciate a room on a higher floor (Level 5 or above) facing the City/Skyline rather than the internal courtyard, to maximize natural light.”

5 lucruri pe care trebuie să le știi înainte să pleci
💡The hotel goes as deep underground (6 levels) as it does up—the ballroom and spa are subterranean engineering feats.
💡The 'Japanese' toilets in the rooms are high-tech Toto washlets with heated seats and auto-lids.
💡There is a guest-only passage to the Whisky Room that feels like a speakeasy.
💡The 'Green Room' is a private area often used for red carpet event holding—you might spot celebs during film premieres.
💡The curtains in some standard rooms are manual, not electric, which surprises some guests given the high-tech vibe.
