Top Somerset House Hotel Reviews

Zedwell Piccadilly Circus

8/10 Good

"Always reliable, room always comfy and really clean. There are frustrating elements - like every addition having to be paid for - even holding you luggage - but for me this the best option for the price. I much prefer it to TravelLodges etc, especially in central London which can be really bad."

Strand Palace Hotel

8/10 Good

"Good location"

The Z Hotel Strand

8/10 Good

"Very central. Within walking distance of Covent Garden and many theatres, Trafalgar Square, Big Ben, London Eye and lots more. Great transport options too. Lots of restaurants and coffee shops nearby."

Apex Temple Court Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A great hotel, very accessible to the river and main attractions. The rooms, service, breakfast were all fantastic, have already recommended to friends and family."

Moxy London Piccadilly Circus

10/10 Excellent

"Easy to find on foot, round the corner from Piccadilly Circus. Don’t let the view on Google maps put you off. Hotel is up escalators to glitzy reception/bar."

Marlin Waterloo

10/10 Excellent

"Conveniently located to major attractions, short walking distance to the Waterloo Station, lots of amenities within minutes of walking. The room was very well appointed and extremely clean, staff were professional and always eager to help and answer questions, even though the hotel was on a busy street I found the room was able to block out almost all of the traffic noise and made it pleasant to sleep at night. I definitely will stay again!"

The Z Hotel Holborn

10/10 Excellent

"The Z hotel is very conveniently located, close to the tube station and within easy walking distance of theatres, restaurants and tourist attractions. Clean and comfortable."

The Clermont London, Charing Cross

10/10 Excellent

"★★★★★ Absolutely beautiful—an unforgettable stay! I absolutely loved my stay at The Clermont, Charing Cross! The hotel is stunning, with so much charm and elegance, and the view made it feel even more special. It was such a lovely place to come back to after a full day exploring London. The staff were amazing—warm, welcoming, and genuinely helpful. They made me feel comfortable and cared for throughout my stay, which meant so much to me as a solo traveler. The location couldn’t have been more convenient. It made exploring London so easy, and having such a beautiful hotel as my home base was a highlight of the trip. I left with wonderful memories and would happily stay here again. If you’re looking for beauty, comfort, fantastic service, and a convenient location, I can’t recommend The Clermont enough!"

ME London

10/10 Excellent

"Welcomed on arrival with a glass of sparkling wine, this well-placed hotel is clean, modern, has a choice of excellent restaurants on site and some great views from the roof top bar. While all these are amazing, the staff really make this hotel….friendly, polite and professional. Whatever their role, they really do this hotel proud. Thank you for an excellent stay in London. We will return!"
