June 13 2007: I stayed over the weekend in this hotel for 3 nights. One of my corporate travellers always stays there on their Club floor as he uses al the free services that come with it like Internet, Movies, Breakfast, Drinks & Snacks. Apparently they even have Ipod docks and PSPs. When I arrived I could see - It is primarily a Business Hotel. You can feel when you enter it. Very slick, crisp and bright -I think that's due to the Atrium lobby. Even the receptionist has a very business like suit. They walked me to the room and explained some restaurants, etc. They managed to make it interesting with their great italian restaurant - the home made pasta was great, just as the swordfish, which my fiancee had. And they really have a trendy bar. We had a drink right when we arrived on the Friday and the DJ they had was really good.
Their room service choice is limited though and not very attractive. I thought of ordering some, yet we decided to go out and try out a small restaurant near the hotel for a quick bite.
Enough of the hotel, we actually chose it because it is right next to St. Paul's and the Tate modern Gallery. It is more quiet than the usual West end hotel, but hey walking over to Covent garden on Saturday only took us 15 minutes.
Overall I think their weekend rate of £125 was worth the money. During the week I couldn't afford, but the business traveller can with prices of around £260 per room per night.
