Radisson Blu Edwardian Hampshire Hotel London UK
Radisson Blu Edwardian Hampshire Hotel
Address: 31 - 36 Leicester Square, London WC2H 7LH, United Kingdom
From June 30th to July 4th, 2023, my wife and I stayed at the Radisson Blu Edwardian Hampshire Hotel in Leicester Square, London. Despite its
portrayal as a five-star establishment, my assessment would not surpass three stars.
Our initially assigned room was far from satisfactory—a small, dim space
with a window offering a view of a nearby wall, contributing to an overall
damp atmosphere due to the lack of sunlight. Promptly expressing our
discontent, we requested a room change, and the hotel, to their credit,
relocated us to a higher floor with a more pleasing view.
The hotel's décor adheres to an Edwardian style, which might be
perceived by some as antiquated rather than contemporary. However,
our selection of this establishment was primarily influenced by its
strategic location, and in that regard, we were content with our decision.
The hotel's enviable position provides a vibrant and exciting atmosphere,
especially for vacationers. Leicester Square, visible from the front rooms,
resembled a lively carnival during our stay, offering a plethora of
activities just steps away from the hotel. Numerous restaurants of
diverse cuisines are conveniently located within minutes.
Even though we had pre-arranged transportation through the Head Concierge, our experience
was marred by an unmet pickup at Heathrow airport. Despite having paid for the service in
advance, we were left waiting for about thirty minutes after contacting the hotel before the car
finally arrived.
In conclusion, our overall experience in London was positive, largely due to the hotel's
exceptional location. If we were to revisit the city, we would not hesitate to choose this hotel
again. Its proximity to renowned landmarks such as Trafalgar Square, Piccadilly Circus, Regent
Street, and Covent Garden adds significant appeal to the overall stay.
