I had a last minute trip to stay in London, so used lastminute.com to find a hotel. I paid £160 to get the Radisson, which was still far from where I had to be. The hotel is near Gloucester tube and the staff upon entering are very pleasant. My hotel room required ninja like awareness to navigate corridors and stairs... More

I arrived earlier than the check in time and they allowed me to have use after the check out time, the hotel is situated conveniently to enjoy the Museum Mile and South Ken, this is where the good news ends. I had the smallest room I have ever seen and the window wouldn't open!!!! When I came back from dinner... More

The staff are incredibly supportive (though they tend to be swamped by guests at peak hours). It was these people, and their attitude which made me feel so, so at home that I want to return. It is they who take the credit. The hotel is ideally located and, taking into account London standards, the rooms are ample enough -except... More

The location was perfect as it's so close to the tube station. Staff couldnt be more helpful, in particular those from the meetings and events team. Lovely hotel with lots of character and great facilities. We have already enquired about availability on another date as we would most definitely use this hotel again.

i stayed here with my daughter (14) for 5 days, and would thoroughly recommend it to others. We had a twin room on the 4th floor and an unusual L shaped room gave the privacy that we both needed. the room itself was comfortable, and actually larger than i expected. Service was always very helpful and polite, but what we... More

Stayed in this hotel last year. Our room was large and comfortable but I could not say anything good about the bathroom. It was very small and pokey. Almost had to walk around sideways. As for the view from our room.....yuk. We had the same view as in photos 28 & 29. Surely this an be improved somehow. Other people... More

The location is perfect, just minutes away from the Tube station. Watch out that crossing on the way to the tube, hard to understand when you have the green light. Lots of diners around. I am the Gold customer and first I was given a standard room which was OK but really small, as in most British hotels. Then I... More

Thank you for your wonderful compliments to the hotel and our team! Indeed the Vanderbilt Hotel has a past with the Vanderbilt family and hence many features in the building still represent a beautifully Georgian homely feel. I trust you will rejoin us again and perhaps we will have the opportunity to meet on this visit - I can be... More

I stayed 3 nights when visiting London. The rooms were big by London standards but still quite small. Bed was comfy though and reception staff for the most part were helpful. I felt as though I was looked down upon at times as I wasn't as ritzy as they hoped their guests would be, but that was only a minor... More

Very conveniently situated: on the direct tube/underground line from Heathrow and within 1 minute walk of tube station. Right in the city center! Very helpful and friendly reception and other staff. Excellent b'fast. Rooms are small but very clean and comfortable - who need a large hotel room in London??
