Guide Review - Imperial Hotel London - Guide Review
The location was a major selling point for me when booking this hotel. It's walking distance from Russell Square tube station, which is on the Piccadilly Line so I could get straight there from Heathrow Airport.
The rooms are clean and a decent size. I loved the hot showers! Quite a treat compared to some hotels.
I liked the coats of arms on the walls in the the dining room. Breakfast was a buffet with teas and coffee and the regular eggs, bacon, and toast, as well as fish (which seemed very strange to my American friends).
The hotel bar stays open late and offered late night sandwiches, which I appreciated after a night at the theater.
I liked the views of the courtyard from the rooms. The European staff were welcoming and courteous. I would be pleased to stay there again.
