Staff were pleasant in the end of our 6 days stay but initially not helpful. I believe they are understaffed. Linens have a certain smell with blood stains inside the comforter. Room was not vacuumed but only trash changed. Two small bar soap provided. Limited towels. Breakfast are only toast, coffee, juice & cereals. I’m not recommending to anyone. Location better, near Victoria station & restaurants.

Older property with a lot of charm. The staff is very obliging. A few minor touch ups needed, like new carpet on the stairs down to the dining room. Very good overall, I have booked a return stay. Easy walking distance to Victoria Train & Bus Station and I even walked back on different days from Buckingham Palace and today from Westminster Abbey.

Very conveniently location, walking distance to Victoria Station and main attractions like Big Ben and Buckingham Palace. It’s small room but clean and confortable. Be advised no elevators, no problem for us. Breakfast was included only cereal, juice, coffee and toast. I loved the early check in without extra payment. I really appreciate it because we came so tired from New York. We really need the early check in. Room was available at 12pm.

This is an older budget friendly hotel, rooms are quite small but location is excellent! Our room had new carpet and bed was very comfortable! Room was very clean and fixtures in bathroom looked new. Breakfast was simple but satisfying; an automatic coffee machine that offered cappuccino, latte, espresso, hot chocolate, and black coffee, plus hot water for tea. Four kinds of cereal, milk, juices, an assortment of jams, marmalade and Nutella, toast, yoghurt. Staff very friendly. Our room was downstairs so carrying heavy suitcases down narrow steps might pose a problem for some people. We’d stay here again on a future trip to London. On their business card it says it will save you money to book directly through the hotel versus third party but I can’t confirm this having booked our stay through Expedia.

Its a typical European rental. The room is small. Maybe 2 feet of area around a full size bed. Its an old property. Staff was extremely attentive. Very quiet. We felt safe.

No elevator, price when I booked was $80 when I finally paid was way more, continental breakfast did not have fruit, booked 2 days , only had breakfast 1 day, double bed in room was lopsided on the right side, because the room is small and no where to sit, looks like the right side is sit on a lot, so its leaning way down. Stay at best western on upper corner a few years back, its a better choice

We enjoyed our time at the Dover Hotel. Very close to Victoria Train Station. Excellent restaurants in the area. We needed two taxis for our group and Khrumm was very helpful he stood out on the corner and flagged down two cabs in the matter of minutes. Great service!!!!

Booked here as it was close to come back to after a west end show. Room was comfy enough but very small for a twin. Just barley worked for me and my sister. Bathroom was nice but no amenities. Breakfast was a joke, they called it continental....it was nothing of the sorts! All they gave you was toast and 4 options of cereal (when they opened the cupboard they are all own brand like Tesco's coco pops). Fresh juice was watered down and mixed and the coffee machine wasn't good either. Then the added judging from the kitchen staff just made us feel uncomfortable as they sat there watching and talking
