Beaufort Hotel

Overall was ok. Their suite was was a bit too small for a family of 2 adults and 3 children. No fridge in the room. Secure, and convenient to major tourist areas. More suitable for couples than familes. Disproportionate value for money.

This was a phenomenal hotel. The staff were very friendly, the rooms spacious and the location was perfect. We enjoyed our 4 nights and would absolutely return there in the future. We were 2 adults and 2 young children.

Here are the pros: Staff: super friendly and really helpful and kind. Rooms were clean as well. Location: located conveniently near Harrods, public transportation was really easy and was in a great quieter street off the main road so you didn’t have to hear as much (at least not our room) Price: since we booked for 6 nights we got a deal so it was decently priced. Cons: The hotel is a bit older. The elevator only fits two people and is very old with a metal gate that you have to drag open. It moves very slowly and often doesn’t operate unless every elevator door on each floor is actually closed, otherwise it will not know to move. Noise within the building: as it is older, the ceilings are very thin and not insulated. We were on the fourth floor and the family above on the fifth floor sounded like they were stomping around all night long, beyond 1 am and would also make noise starting at 7:30 am. This is of course not the staff’s issue, but just something to deal with due to the building structure. If you are looking here I recommend asking for a room on the 5th floor, but the con would be having to either walk up and down the stairs or wait for the elevator every time.

Great location just round the corner from Harrods. Great rooms we had a junior suite which was very comfortable, large and stylishly decorated. But for that money and room size would have expected a fridge. Also coffee and tea were provided free of charge from reception, but no facilities in the room, which tends to be fairly standard for hires these days.

The upgraded room was large and comfortable, but the very very old elevator only goes to 4th floor. The ‘fire-doors’ on each floor are definitely not ‘fire-doors’. Breakfast is only served in your room (on a tray). The hotel feels more like a family home with rooms, but very central position for meetings in that area.
