Why We Love This Hotel

  • The hotel is tucked between Leicester Square and Trafalgar Square. After a busy day exploring, come back to comfortable and contemporary rooms. Sit out on the terrace or in the cosy lounge at Squares Restaurant & Bar.
  • Stay steps away from London's iconic landmarks. The National Gallery is on the doorstep. Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, and The British Museum are all within 20 minutes' walk.
  • Travel further afield underground, with three Tube stations five minutes' walk from the hotel. Catch the Piccadilly line to Hyde Park for vast green spaces and Kensington Palace.
  • Theatregoers will love the proximity to London's West End. Watch the world's longest-running play, "The Mousetrap", or sing along to countless musicals.
  • Shop your way through Covent Garden's markets and Soho's Carnaby Street. Break for a quick bite or a pub lunch, with dining options galore.

The receptionist was a bit gruff and not very welcoming. I was surprised to be asked for photographic id. Luckily I did have my drivers licence. I’ve stopped in London 4 times this year and I’ve never been asked for my passport/id card/drivers license before

From booking into our room and breakfast, the staff really were friendly, helpful and professional, they couldn’t do enough for us to make our stay more comfortable. Kim from the bar was particularly friendly and helpful. The Thistle is in a marvellous position just off of Trafalgar Square, handy for the underground and theatres. The room on the 6th floor was clean and comfortable with fabulous views across London, we could see many landmark places including the Eye. We would stay again.
Other Comments
Our only comment was in the bathroom there was a broken tile on the wall under the sink and the toilet was in a most inconvenient placed. My husband who has fairly long legs had to sit sideways on the toilet, unless you were particularly small there wasn’t much room between the toilet and the shower cubicle.
