Hotel offers wireless connection in all rooms and all public areas. Complimentary to call residents. Property has 1 restaurant on-site. Place is definitely centrally located
Loved Radisson Portman Square

A real 4* Hotel in London.
Upgraded to a business class which included a fabulous breakfast buffet.
Robes and slippers thrown in also. I wish my other hotel in London was as nice.
Guest services were excellent, very cordial staff.
Disapointed

We just stayed at the Radisson SAS Portman Square. We were there for 3 nights beginning of June. Our room was in the West Tower with the Oriental theme. The room was very small, we had to move the furniture in order to be able to unpack our suitcase. The room was in desparate need of renovations, chips on the wall and furniture. The closet was so small we could fit only 6/7 items in it. There was no dresser so we had to use our suitcase to store our clothes. We asked the Concierge for a map of London and we were treated very highly. If I go back to London it will certainly not be at this Radisson SAS. We stayed at other Radisson during our 3 weeks vacation in Europe and never had such a bad experience.
Decent price for fantastic location

Stayed at the Radisson Portman for 5 nights in March - the hotel came highly recommended from our travel agent. The location was ideal, only a 5 minute walk to Oxford Street and Hyde Park. The room was small but well appointed, the biggest problem being the lack of drawers or shelf space. For a room for 2 people (standard room), there was minimal room for clothes. Aside from that, bed was comfortable, room was very clean and the bathroom was a good size. Did not eat at all in the hotel, we were so close to everything that there was no need. Free wireless internet a big bonus! Staff was friendly enough, all in all it was a great experience and probably would stay there again but would upgrade to the next room level for more closet space. As far as London hotels go, great price for the location.
Nice atmosphere. Friendly staff

Good location. Rooms a bit on the small side. We were able to check in early at 11am but all that was available was a smoking room. Not reccommended if you're a non smoker - smells of smoke. Drinks at bar were extremely expensive. £4.75 for a pint and £5.50 for a shot of malibu, plus £2.75 for a coke = £8.25 for one drink!! Suggest an off-licence, or a bar just round the corner!! All in all, a nice clean hotel in a good location. Just off Oxford St, less than 10 mins from Selfridges.

We stayed in a suite at the radisson which was fab. we stayed at the Penthouse suite which had two rooms, dining table, sofas and two luxury bathrooms. breakfast was very good but the prices in the bar were overshocking. great location if you want to be close to Hyde Park and the shops of Oxford St. the staff in the hotel were very friendly and dinner was very good too. definitely worth a visit.
Good location, not for non-smokers

We stayed on 6th May 2006.
The hotel was in an excellent location off Oxford Street so walking distance to the shops and a tube station. As we entered the hotel it took a long time to check in and despite checking in early we were given a twin smoking room when we had booked a non-smoking double room. When we complained they said they only had a double disabled room left which when we looked at it was of a lot lower quality than the twin room and had a dodgy looking cover on the bed. (was also smoking)
At £128 per night I would expect to get the room I had booked!
Also the whole lobby area was thick with smoke and the lifts smelt of smoke as well - definately not a place to stay if you do not want to smell of smoke every time you walk in and out of the hotel.
There were huge fans at the back of the hotel which you could constantly hear throughout the night which may affect light sleepers.
Drinks in the hotel bar were very expensive but that is to be expected.
The bathroom was very nice with heated floor tiles and a really powerful shower.
All in all the hotel wasn't for me, mainly due to the smoky environment. However the rooms are nicely decorated and you get an iron, minibar, TV etc and the hotel is fine if shopping is one of your main reasons for visiting london.
Very pleasant hotel..

Stayed for one night in a superior room. Able to check-in a bit early at 1pm and found room to be very comfortable & clean. Individual air conditioning a definate bonus for a hotel in the UK! Bathroom nice size, clean & modern, only slight fault was that shower screen did not meet the bath tub, resulting in minor flood!
Location good at far end of Oxford St, near Marble Arch & Hyde Park. Two blocks or so from Oxford St itself, near Selfridges. Did not eat in the hotel but found a great coffee shop a few blocks away that did a great breakfast.
All in all, a pleasant experience for staying in London.
