The Strand Palace: In the heart of Londontown   Compare Rates NEW!
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • For the traveller looking to stay within steps of the West End Theatre district, near to the Courts or Covent Garden, and across the street from Tea at the Savoy, no location could be better! Accessible from the Embankment, Charing Cross and Covent Garden tube stations it offers quick connections to any point in the metropolitan area. Interior lower floor rooms are Spartan - yet clean and very quiet. Breakfast is served both Continental and English style, but get there before 9:00 AM, to avoid the crowds that will descend. The hotel is apparently a favorite on the group-tour circuit, so is fully booked nearly every night, even in the 'shoulder season' of late March.

    The friendly staff at the Concierge desk are extremely attentive, unlike the breakfast room staff who seemed a bit 'overworked and underpaid', serving the morning hordes. A free morning paper at breakfast is a plus.

  • I have stayed here on two occasions, and it is a great deal for a single room, about average for a double. It is clean, with a helpful staff and could not be in a more convenient spot, directly across the street from The Savoy, at the Waterloo Bridge.

    I was most surprised by the pleasant service in the pub in the hotel and also the Mask Bar in the lobby. After having drinks the night I arrived I discovered that the bartender had cashed out before I paid. When I pointed it out to him he said he assumed I was staying at the hotel and I could pay him anytime before I checked out. He didn't even ask for my room number. Having never been to London before, and traveling alone, I found it such a welcome, especially in a large hotel.

  • hotels in the heart of london are pretty expensive. the strand palace is cheaper than most hotels in the covent garden area without sacrificing class and quality. this is a great hotel to stay at bec its within walking distance or a short train ride away from areas of interest. the shops at covent garden is only a couple of blocks away. if you want to stay in london's trendy soho area, this hotel is worth looking into...

    The Strand Palace: Good location and not much else   Compare Rates NEW!
  • Satisfaction:
  • The hotel lobby is impressive, but unfortunately the splendour does not continue in the rooms -- they are okay, but nothing special. Coming from Scandinavia, I'd expect to have fitted sheets in places with hefty price tags as in this one. I also asked for a non-smoking room (and got one), but there was still an ashtray in the table and smoky aroma in the room. Fortunately the bed did not smell bad.

    Location, location, location. The theatre land and Covent Garden are just behind the corner.

    The Strand Palace: Lucky for its location   Compare Rates NEW!
  • Satisfaction:
  • This place is all about the location. It is right on the Strand and minutes from Trafalgar Square. Cons: The rooms are small and the common areas shabby (except for the lobby). Ventilation is poor in the rooms, very stuffy My door was literally coming off it's hinges Wireless internet connection was spotty Pros: The staff was pleasant enough The rooms were clean As mentioned above, the location is prime
