Fantastic Stay at a Wonderful Spot

fresh fruitegg dishescoral roomlobby fireplace
The breakfast included fresh fruit. It also had vegetables and cooked-to-order egg dishes. I especially loved the gluten-free pancakes. The coral room is beautiful (and perfect) for drinks with friends. We sat by the lobby fireplace one afternoon.
The wifi was not so good. It was hard to get a signal, and the connection kept dropping.
Location

The location was acceptable, very close to many attractions and the underground (tube).
The minibar policy seems restrictive. I could not store personal items like water. The hotel asked intrusive questions about my travel plans. This felt a little uncomfortable (especially as a solo traveler).

I found the breakfast buffet delicious. They offered a great variety of hot and cold options every morning. The bed was comfortable!!! I slept soundly each night and I woke up refreshed.
The room service menu had limited options after 10 PM. I would appreciate a wider selection.
