We stayed for 9 nights. Wonderful location. Good food quality and value for money. We tried few restaurants near queensbay underground..but finally settled for dinner here . The staff at Restaurant and Counter is welcoming . My daily routine was a walk at Hyde Park which is just opp to the hotel .. Thanks

Very concomitantly located, good rooms with Kensington Garden view. staff is very efficient, helpful and friendly. Farhan and Jo at reception made my early check in smooth. Sarika and Nitin at restaurant were happily serving breakfast. Thomas Kutty helped with luggage storage and check out, I am really thankful to them. The best thing about this hotel is its staff.

This was the first time we had planned to stay a couple of days in the Capitol. The hotel is n an excellent location, close to absolutely everything you can think of (Restaurants, shops, underground stations etc.) The staff at Thistle Hotel Hyde Park are excellent. Nothing was too much to ask. The onsite restaurant was also very good, lovely breakfasts with large variety of food available. The rooms were adequate however there is very little cupboard space (Hanging) and no draws available. Rooms are comfortable and everything worked as expected.

Solid choice. The hotel is just 15 mins walking from Paddington in a very pleasant area of London. The rooms are decent-sized and, actually, something more for London standards. They are clean and relatively modern. Nothing to complain about. We also had breakfast at the hotel and it was very good. We will probably go there again next time we are in London.
