Grange Buckingham Hotel

All the staff were friendly and helpful. Very spacious room and close to all the sights we wanted to see. Bed was comfortable and there were sufficient towels and toiletries for our 2 night stay. The fans were much appreciated given London is a very hot & sticky city at the moment! The continental breakfast served in the sister hotel next door was sufficient but paying the extra £5 was worth it for the full English which was freshly cooked.

As the room is advertised with a kitchenette to bring it from a 3 star to a 4 star rating it would need a larger fridge, a tea towel and cleaning items such as washing up liquid (same size as the toiletries would be fine!) and a washing cloth... but we could have brought our own I guess LOL! A plug and a lamp by the single bed would be a good addition and don't forget to let the Clarendon know when guests have booked a breakfast (we were not on the list and had an awkward wait on the first morning!). Appreciate the age of the building which added to its charms as London hotel but a quick check of the rooms and a lick of paint to touch up the scuffs and dents would make it feel more 4 star, especially as you have to go next door for breakfast.

Great location, classic design and furnishings, spacious and comfortable; just what we needed for a busy weekend in London

I work online so the wifi was insufficient for my meetings; however, it was fine for other general activities

Good sized comfortable & private room with little kitchen area and in great location.

Breakfast arrangement could have been better

Location was good for a short break including theatre visit

No cold water in the room. The cold water tap ran hot. We visited during heatwave and this made showers uncomfortable as water was extremely hot. Had to buy bottled water to clean teeth and use for kettle. Staff said maintenance would investigate but it did not happen. No air con in room fan provided. Room was very hot but not as hot as the cold water
