Stayed at this property for 2 nights. Right across the street from underground station which is so convenient to get around. Boots and Tesco express right there as well. Staff was so friendly and helpful. Room was clean and spacious. Shower was powerful and hot. I will absolutely stay here again.

The hotel is excellent, this is the second time I’m in this hotel. The only bad experience I had was the kitchen, two times (different days) I called them and they said I couldn’t have food, but the hotel says I can order food anytime, the only thing is I have less option, so at this time I was unhappy with this exclusive service.

Hotel is in a great central location and very close to tube station. Very friendly and helpful staff, great buffet breakfast. It's an old building so navigating with large luggage can be difficult. Rooms a bit small, but very clean with all amenities. I'll stay tere on future visits

Always good
Always enjoy Vanderbilt; room was great and clean. Breakfast is outstanding (even if the coffee could do with some work). Only drawback - shower needed some maintenance/refurbishment.

Not Great
My room was cold. The next day I got a new room and it was warmer. In the new room, the safe did not work, the lights on the end table were out and the room smelled dingy. The hotel bought me a drink for my trouble but I believe it had a $7 limit as I had to pay the difference since I chose makers mark. Lol
