Tip Rating:   Satisfaction: |  |  | |  |
When I arrived at the Thistle Lancaster, the staff were very personable and friendly. I discovered they did not accept my type of credit card, but they allowed me to have "hotel credit" and worry about paying at the end of my stay.
The staff were fabulous! They assisted me as much as they could, and were happy to do so. They even made it a point to learn my name. The concierge was wonderful and friendly.
The room I stayed in was aged, and could've used an update, but it was still comfortable and nice in presentation.
Room service was exceptional. They were always very fast, and the food was delicious (the french fries were the BEST)
They were very on top of things at this hotel and made sure I enjoyed my stay.
I do recommend this hotel, and I found that if you are nice to the staff, they are more than willing to accomodate you and serve you as best they can.
This hotel is located on Bayswater Rd. right across the street from Hyde Park. If you manage to get a room with a park view, on a clear night you can see the London sky-line. The closest tube station is Queensway, the walk to and from there wasn't as painful and boring as the walk to the Lancaster Gate tube station. Also, at the queensway station, there are shops, so you can get groceries and souvenirs when returning to the hotel.
This hotel is located on the central line tube, which will take you to most of the major sights without ever having to change your train.
Also, the hotel is really close to the famous Notting Hill neighborhood, which is quite nice. Leave a Comment Theme: HotelPrice: US$120-180 » Currency ConverterComparison: about averageDirections: Bayswater, Hyde Park, West London

| | | | |
I stayed in Thistle Lancaster Gate Hotel from 27/12/2004 until 02/01/2005 in a double-room located on the highest floor. I found the room to be very nice and clean. The bed has firm mattress, clean sheets, covers and pillows. The only complaint I have about the room was that the heater was not working properly - so my bed was rather chilly. Even though the hotel staff came and fixed it, the heater was still not working. So I had to bundle-up a lot (complete with warm socks and double blankets!) during the nights to keep warm and toasty.
However, recently, I found out that Thistle Lancaster Gate is no longer operating as a hotel. As an alternative, you can book Hotel Thistle Kensington Gardens or Hotel Thistle Hyde Park, also located on Bayswater Road only a few metres away from Thistle Lancaster Gate, overlooking Kensington Palace Gardens and Hyde Park.
My room had a large double bed, chairs and built-in side tables, closet/cabinet, satellite TV, mini-bar and fridge, coffee & tea self-service, safe, ironing board, and shirt press. The bathroom was small but OK, and lots of towels. Their buffet english breakfast was served in their cafe restaurant; they have a good selection of food, breads and beverages.
The Hotel was conveniently located close to the public buses and the underground tubes, Lancaster Gate and Baywaters. The West End with its theatres and shops is only a short taxi or tube ride away and the hotel was within walking distance of the trendy Bayswater area.
