For guests returning from exploring central London, the new hotel offers the perfect location to unwind with a delicious meal and great night’s sleep. The hotel boasts an on-site Thyme Restaurant, offering a breakfast & dinner menu in an informal atmosphere. What’s more, the new-generation bedrooms feature an impressive 40″ flat screen TV, bright, modern bathrooms with a large showerhead and slumber-inducing, king-size Hypnos bed.
