Holmes Hotel London

"Our family of 2 adults and 2 kids lived in this very nice hotel for three nights during March 2023. It is a very nice hotel, with overall nice rooms and very good service. We booked two rooms, one studio suite to serve as day-time room and sleeping accommodation and an additional standard room (a.k.a. "cozy room") to make sleeping for the four of us less crowded. The kids no longer want to share a sofa bed :) There is a significant difference in standard between the studio suite and the standard/cozy room. The studio suite is very nicely furnished, but the cozy room is quite sparsely furnished, and doesn't for instance have bedside lights. So it's rather sterile really. But it didn't matter to us since we spent daytime for the entire family in the studio suite. Recommendation if you want to stay here is to book an upgraded room."

"I stayed here for three nights in October 2022 and it will now be my first choice for a hotel in London. The condition and maintenance of the hotel is superb as is the location - easy walking distance to most attractions in London. Reception will easily call a cab for you - otherwise there are many Uber cars around this area. There are three standout areas. Firstly, the staff really engage with you - they laugh with you. That really makes you feel at home in a hotel. Whatever changes I needed to make for the booking was not a problem. Secondly, was the quality of food for breakfast - not every hotel gets this right and having a table service is so much more relaxing than a buffet. Thirdly, quality of the rooms - really excellent. Admittedly, I paid a corporate rate because I was here on business but it would be my personal choice now as I've experienced it. Thoroughly recommended."

"We had a great stay at the Holmes! It was fun yet sophisticated vibe and all the staff attentive and courteous. We enjoyed the restaurant for many meals and I found it handy with a tween that wished to sleep in but but I could get some breakfast and still be nearby. The thing that most impressed me most was the staff followed up with a detail well after we departed with a small item we needed. They could have dismissed this item but instead took the time to follow through and really showed that extra step of hospitality and kindness. When we get back to London we would happily stay here again."

"We loved our stay at the Holmes hotel. Very cool atmosphere while still being very accommodating for children. The rooms are nice and our family of four fit in a suite. The housekeeping did a fantastic job cleaning every day and bringing us anything extra we needed. The breakfast is delicious and kids eat free. The location was awesome too. It was a great base for seeing all the city has to offer. There are little markets next door to get some food for the kids which we put in our in room fridge. I can't recommend this hotel enough."
