Location

Covent Garden/Soho (London)
The hub of tourist London, Covent Garden means entertainment, with street performers, hot music venues, theaters, and the Royal Opera House. There are also good museums and great little independent shops. Soho is full of local character, interesting pubs, West End theaters, and a rich, sometimes risque' nightlife. Both areas are excellent for dining out.

Property amenities

Three elevators serve the hotel's nine floors, ironing rooms are available for guests' use on the second and sixth floors, and all corridors are monitored by closed-circuit TV. The front desk is open 24 hours, and a separate concierge desk assists with theater tickets and travel inquiries. The hotel's coffee shop and pub-style bar are open daily. A dial-up Internet access point in the lobby accepts coins and credit cards.

What to expect: Just off the north tip of Piccadilly Circus, this hotel dates from 1914. Popular with leisure travelers looking for a central location at a reasonable price, it provides comfortable accommodations in the West End's action-packed theater district. The cheerful, air-conditioned lobby has cobalt blue walls, an island of terracotta-colored banquettes, a souvenir shop, and a small Nescafe' coffee shop.

Amenity highlights: The hotel's front desk is open around the clock and provides a safe-deposit box for guests' valuables. A separate concierge desk can assist with theater tickets and travel inquiries. The large Irish pub-style bar features karaoke and live bands in the evening, and sports on big-screen TVs.

Insider tip: Two blocks north of the hotel, Carnaby Street offers a diverse shopping experience; many think it unbeatable for up-to-the-minute streetwear. Made famous in the swinging '60s as the epitome of London cool, Carnaby Street and its environs are still hip places for shopping and sightseeing.
