I was pleasantly surprised with the upgrade to a 2-bedroom apartment, which offered ample space for two large suitcases and featured an excellent bathroom. The room was very nice and spacious, making for a comfortable stay; however, the dining options were a bit overpriced for my taste.

Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were spacious but in need of some updating, and the price was higher compared to other areas in the country. On the bright side, the room was beautifully furnished with plenty of space and a spacious bathroom. The service from the young staff members, aged between 24-30, was excellent and very helpful. One particular staff member went above and beyond to ensure everything was tidy, even taking care of my teddy bear. However, the location was a bit of a mixed bag. While it's very convenient for those wanting a quiet neighborhood near Royal Albert Hall and Hyde Park, it's not ideal in terms of proximity to a Tube station or restaurants. As for the dining experience, it was a pleasant surprise, offering fresh and tasty options, although a bit more variety would have been appreciated. Overall, the facilities were satisfactory but could benefit from some improvements.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The room was surprisingly quiet and comfortable at the back of the hotel, although some parts were in poor condition. The service was friendly and helpful, with excellent customer service but lacked laundry facilities. The location was convenient for exploring London attractions but had limited dining options. The facilities were average but could be improved.

The John Howard Hotel was a delightful stay. The rooms were basic but spacious, with a lovely step-up-to king size bed. The service was impeccable, with accommodating staff who were happy to cook to order. The location couldn't be better, directly opposite Hyde Park and just a stone's throw away from top attractions. The dining experience was satisfactory, offering plentiful options for a quick bite. Overall, a great value for a comfortable and friendly stay.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and modern, resembling those in high-end hotels in the USA and Canada. The service was top-notch, with the staff going above and beyond to assist guests. The location is superb, with easy access to major attractions and beautiful Hyde Park. However, the dining experience was average, and the buffet style may not suit everyone's preferences.
