Victoria Double Bed Retreat Near Buckingham Palace

Exceptional Location, but the Interior Needs an Upgrade Positive: I had a mixed experience at the Imperial Victoria Hotel. On the positive side, the location is unbeatable. It is surrounded by great cafes and restaurants, and most major attractions, train stations, and tube stops are within easy walking distance. The facilities are also quite practical—there is a communal kitchen available for guests, as well as a washer and dryer, which was very convenient. Additionally, the bathroom/shower area was surprisingly spacious. Negative: the room comfort was disappointing. It was extremely cold during my stay; even with the window shut, there was a significant draft. The property is in desperate need of a complete renovation. The floors, sofa, and mattress all felt very old and worn out. It definitely requires a deep clean, or better yet, a full replacement of the furniture.

While the room is quite nice and spacious, they could do more to improve cleanliness overall. Positive: Good location in a nice and quiet area. The bed was very comfortable (except for the pillows), spacious bathroom. Check in instructions were clear and easy to follow. Negative: The towels had black marks on them and didn't seem well washed. Additionally, there were not enough towels, only two big ones for the shower and no smaller ones. The carpet was not clean and had stains all over it. We only stayed for one night, but had we had to stay longer in London, we would have changed hotels.

Positive: Great location, in a private area so still nice and quiet while still being just around the corner from food spots and buckingham palace. Tube and bus stops nearby. Very spacious room with everything you need. Check in was smooth and communication was great from the host. Would stay again!

Would definitely book again.

Excelent room in a premium location with a large bathroom Positive: I liked the excellent location, comfy arrangement, amazing bathroom, enough space for cloths. Also, the common kitchen is very useful to prepare your own meals. Negative: An iron would be useful.
