They kept replenishing the breakfast area as well. We really enjoyed our stay and ended up staying in our room longer than we thought as we had a terrace and everything was so nice and comfortable. Really liked the bar area too.

Cons: I didn't like the perfume pumped through the air-con in the corridors and bedrooms. Infact we had to be moved as I suffer from asthma and it was effecting my breathing to a none perfumed floor (5) and room. The corridors are too dark, felt like a ship..

Pros: Shower, receptionist locstion
Cons: My bedroom was on the ground floor beside a busy walkway. The window didn't close with a minimum gap of five inches. It was a bit scary when I went out that someone would get in and there was constantly noise from people talking as they walked by through the.night. A homeless man sleeping outside the window was very polite but the window should have been closable from the noise perspective with some sort of bars for security and safety. Outside of that the bed was comfortable, the shower power full and hot. The reception staff were helpful and the location very central for Covent garden and tubes. But in the end not being able to sleep for fear and noise reasons is not acceptable at the price There are better and cheaper option in the area.

Pros: The staff were friendly
Cons: We were next to a busy walkway on the ground floor. The street light shone straight into the window all night so it was like daylight all night. There was hardly room to walk round the bed and it was very dated.

Pros: The hotel was clean and comfortable and very quiet - remarkably so for a central London location. It is ideally situated for theatre-going. The staff were pleasant and helpful. I will certainly return to The Fielding for my next trip.
Cons: I'm not now sure if the booking page mentioned that there is no lift. The stairs are narrow and could be a problem for someone with impaired mobility; but I was asked if I needed a hand with my bags so help is available. I had booked a superior room which was described as 'spacious'. I would certainly argue with this as far as the room was concerned but the en-suite WAS a good size (which is quite rare) and very nicely done - but the fan did not work.

Pros:
Cons: The wait time for everything was exceedingly slow. A food order could take over 90 min for delivery.
The rooms were not sound proof you could here every person who walked by and what they were saying.
The staff were not trained for a hotel of that price.
The breakfast selection was mediocre and the same everyday for the 9 days I was there. The hotels decor is old and outdated. It was difficult to even have a bottle of water delivered.
The food was less and average.
3.8 Mediocre
Pros: Nothing
Cons: Staff were extremely rude and check In was delayed 1 hour 40 minutes due to staff not being able to handle booking correctly. I would avoid this hotel as there are many other options with much better service. We stay at Waldorf and other Hilton brands around the world this is genuinely the worst hotel experience I have ever had.

Cons: My girlfriend and I did not sleep extremely well there due to the lack of AC during the summer when it was 75 degrees Fahrenheit outside and along with the lack of support in the bed. The bed looks like it is nice and fluffy but when you sit down on it, it sank drastically.

10.0 Excellent
Pros: The Strand Palace is conveniently located within walking distance of many of the sights that we were interested in visiting. In addition the staff was wonderful, friendly and always available. Our room was very comfortable and the restaurant was delicious. They couldn’t do enough for you. On our day of departure they even packed us a breakfast to take with us to the airport for an early flight.
Cons: Nothing. This hotel is quality throughout.
9.6 Excellent

8.8 Excellent
Pros: Breakfast and location was really good.
Cons: Thought it was a little pricey and the lifts took ages in the morning and were very packed. (Nothing you can do about that I guess).
4.2 Okay
Pros: The room is really small but price is high. I preferred this one as I thought it should be big enough according to 231 pounds per night. However, it is super tiny. And I am disappoint to the staffs.
Cons:
5.4 Okay
Pros: Spotlessly clean, recent updated rooms.
Cons: The rooms are tiny. I stayed here a year ago and the old style room was fairly spacious (for London). This room was tiny... To call it Deluxe is a bit of a stretch. I'm 5'10" and could lay down touching both walls. I tried this. It was easy!!!
7.9 Good
Pros: The hotel staff were nice and helpful. I asked them how to get from the hotel to the airport and they even sold me the train ticket I needed.
Cons: • The bed was incredibly hard. It was like sleeping on the floor. My back hurt all the time. • The bathroom has no door which means that if you have air conditioning on in your room, and you take a shower you will be very cold when you get out of the shower. It also means that if you pee the whole room smells like pee. • The shower is built in such a way that if you move around too much, water starts getting out of the shower and into your floor. It is very modern and pleasing to the eye, but not very practical. • The hotel must be under construction, because every morning starting from 6am I heard sounds of people building and hammering. • While I was in the shower the last day of my stay the cleaning staff tried to enter my room at 8:30am which isn't that late. Thank god I had let the emergency lock on the door. Otherwise the cleaning staff would have seen me naked in the shower. • The Wi-fi is pretty bad.

Pros: It’s location and it’s a little quirky. Would have been great if they sort out breakfast service, mould and the heating.
Cons: They had a problem with the heating which they failed to tell us about- we sweated all night. Got up and out breakfast didn’t appear- no apologies. They just let us sit there for 45 minutes. Mould in the shower needs some attention
9.2 Excellent
Pros: Only 6 rooms in total which was nice. Free drink on arrival. Very professional staff.
Cons: Could have done with some more guidance on what was avaliable for breakfast and more information about facilities on check in.
4.6 Okay
Pros: Breakfast was only rudimentary. We took a taxi from KX station to the hotel which is opposite a famous theatre. Liked the brightly lit bathroom.
Cons: The hotel needs a bit more TLC from the staff. Carpets on the floors were unpleasantly unappealing. The hotel is more a saloon bar in character than the eponymous library of its name.

5.0 Okay
Pros: It’s quirkiness and central locations
Cons: We stayed here for my partners 30th birthday and first ever trip to London. I can safely say I didn’t like having to pay for the room twice and being ignored when I explained I had already paid. I didn’t like how I was told to wait in my room while a refund was sorted (once I could prove I had already paid once) and that they would call up to let us know when this was complete, to then wait an hour with no call. The refund had been sorted within 5 minutes but nobody let us know until we went downstairs to find out how long it would take. I didn’t like how nobody apologised for the way they had treated us. Most of all I didn’t like how they have ignored every attempt of contact we have tried, to complain about our stay. I should note we have not asked for a refund or any freebies, but just an apology that we deserve.
6.7 Good
Pros: Location is excellent staff are really helpful and the room we booked had a lovely terrace
Cons: I didn’t like the mouse that ran across the room while we were eating breakfast! And the music from the bar downstairs was quite loud until 1am.

Pros: The location is absolutely perfect
Cons: The air con was broke in the terrace room, the hot tap didn’t work and the terrace view was poor.

6.0 Good
Pros: Location was excellent, check in staff were good, other than that didn’t see them
Cons: Room was not adequately cleaned. Bathroom had visible limescale staining. Self service breakfast was awful, limited selection, dirty tables, cold coffee. It felt like we were eating in a nightclub the day after, sticky floors and tables. The whole place needs a good and thorough cleaning. Poor value for the price paid.
4.6 Okay
Pros: Great location and paid extra for a terrace so we could smoke.
Cons: Pokey room, bed was v average, bathroom had no running cold water only hot from the cold tap. Toilet flush handle bust. Mini bar v expensive. No ashtray available when requested for the terrace Terrace was v shabby. Pots full of weeds and cigarette ends ( obviously)
