Zedwell Piccadilly Circus
Excellent location, in the heart of Piccadilly Circus (literally less than 50m from the Station entrance). We had dinner across the road and then crossed another street to see musical. The room is modern but very bare, there was no where to sit so it’s definitely a place to just sleep and be out ...
