My stay at the Sanderson London was truly nice. I enjoyed the quirky and stylish design of the hotel, especially the modern touches in our room. The staff were incredibly warm and attentive, ensuring we felt special during our visit. However, the sound from the bar was a bit disruptive at night, which detracted from the overall experience. Still, the location couldn't be better, right in the heart of everything. I genuinely can't wait to return.

My stay at the Sanderson was a mixed bag. While the trendy ambiance and friendly staff made a positive impression, I did face a couple of significant service issues that left me disappointed. The location is fantastic for exploring London, but the inconsistencies in service quality make me hesitant to return.

Service

While some staff were incredibly polite and accommodating (like when they greeted me with a smile), my experience was marred by notable lapses in service. For instance, I encountered a significant problem when I got stuck in the elevator for over 20 minutes without anyone checking on us, which felt unacceptable for a hotel of this caliber.

The location was ideal, allowing me to walk to major attractions easily (it was perfect for heading to the theatre!). Plus, there were plenty of great restaurants nearby, which added to the appeal.

Dining

Dining options were decent, though I expected a bit more variety, especially for breakfast (I would have appreciated a broader selection of hot dishes). The food I tried was contemporary and delicious, which was a nice plus.

Facilities

The hotel had good facilities overall, but I did encounter long waits for room service and had to follow up multiple times for certain requests (which was frustrating). The gym was nice, but some areas felt a bit dated.
