One of the best locations in London, the park across the road, a stroll to Piccadilly and St James. Great restaurants nearby (try the fashionable Wolseley), Fortnum & Mason, bookshops and art galleries. We had an apartment on the side road of the hotel, which was extremely comfortable. Would be very happy to stay there again. more

My patrner and I got a good deal on this hotel, we weren't expecting the best, and from the outside initially still had reservations. All was dismissed as soon as we walked in and experienced a very cute boutique hotel. The staff and the interior were fabulous and we truely recommend. more

I have stayed here on a number of occasions over the past couple of years and have enjoyed every visit. The location is excellent, with all the main shopping areas within walking distance and lots of restaurants/ cafes on the doorstep. I have stayed in all their different grades of room and the only difference between them, in my opinion,... more

When I booked this hotel I thought it would be just like any other 5 star hotel (especially for the price), but I had a rude awakening. Check in went without a problem. When I got to my room, it was dirty, smelled dank and was just not what I had expected. My friend was 2 rooms away and his... more

We stayed for 2 nights in this hotel, chosen mainly for its extremely good location. However it proved to be surprisingly good. The rooms were very clean with lovely linen, but the best bit was the standard of the staff. Every single person was helpful and went out of their way to help. Well done you lot. You managed to... more

We recently stayed in the Athenaeum Hotel Apartments. We had friends in London and wanted a place where everyone could come by and visit. We found the apartments online with a sitting area, a small well equipted kitchen, and a lovely balcony. We needed 2 rooms and were able to get one that connected and opened in between, which gave... more

I cannot tell you how excited I was to stay at the Athenaeum having been there for afternoon tea the year before, but it was not good! My husband and I paid for his parents and ourselves to stay over after going to see Spamalot, which was fab! We arrived at noon and our rooms were not ready, not a... more

I had the most awful experience I've ever had at any hotel I've stayed at during my stay at the Athenaeum Hotel in March/April this year - the night before I left, I found a rat in my room. When I called the front desk, they didn't even sound genuinely apologetic and I was moved to another room for my... more

Stayed at the Athenaeum Hotel in London for two nights in mid-May. Found a fantastic deal on the room (single room) on Skoosh.com Paid 192 dollars for two nights including continental breakfast. Room was lovely, a double bed, clean and bright bath. Staff was amazing. From the first greeting by "big Jim" the derby hatted doorman, to reception, to everyone... more
