Top Leicester Square Hotel Reviews

Park Plaza London Westminster Bridge

10/10 Excellent

"Gorgeous, beautiful, super clean, and great service. The hotel itself has a great location. The staff is great. Highly recommended. Will definitely come back when in town."

The Z Hotel Leicester Square

10/10 Excellent

"I had a wonderful stay at this hotel in London! The room was small, but exactly as expected, and everything was clean and well maintained. The location was absolutely amazing and made my trip 10,000 times better. It was the perfect place to stay while exploring London, and I couldn’t have asked for a better location. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting London, and I would happily stay here again on my next trip!"

The Z Hotel Piccadilly

10/10 Excellent

"Great budget choice in an awesome location! I stayed here as a solo traveler, and the room size was absolutely perfect for just me. However, if you are traveling with someone else or prefer spacious accommodations, the rooms might feel a bit tight. The location itself is fantastic—all of the local restaurants, shops, and public transportation options are within a 5 to 10-minute walk. Keep in mind that the hotel is right in the heart of a very busy area. If you plan on catching an Uber or a taxi to the airport, I highly recommend scheduling it well in advance; otherwise, waiting for a ride or getting through the traffic can take a very long time. Highly recommended for solo travelers who want to be right in the action!"

Zedwell Underground Hotel Tottenham Court Road

10/10 Excellent

"Room was very clean, staff was always nice and helpful. We had a room with no noise at all (I read some reviews saying you could hear the tube, but our room was completely quiet). The only thing I want to say is -no negative but just to make people aware- this is not a hotel for everyone, the rooms are very small and minimalist so you can’t bring a lot of luggage, cause there’s no room to put them. If you’re by yourself with a piece of luggage you’ll be fine, but a couple with 4 pieces will struggle a bit (however we were able to manage lol). Also note there are no hairdryers in the rooms, you’d have to go next to the lobby for the beauty room where you can style your hair, I personally loved the hotel and the location couldn’t be better, but like I said I don’t think it’s for everyone, so keep that in mind if you’re travelling with a lot of luggage. I’d def stay here again, cause location is 10/10 and room was very clean with a very wide cozy bed."

The Z Hotel Trafalgar

10/10 Excellent

"This is now my favourite hotel in central London. The location is excellent. Lots of restaurants and theatres are nearby. Our room was very clean and staff were very friendly and helpful. The food in the restaurant and breakfast were good too and I have no complaints anything about this hotel. Thank you Z Hotel. I e will be back ."
