Escape the ordinary and discover the charm of The Leonard, a hidden gem in the heart of London. This hotel offers a truly unique experience, combining traditional hospitality with modern comforts.
A Rescue From a Nightmare
After enduring a dreadful stay at another hotel, I stumbled upon The Leonard. Desperate for a better experience, I booked a room while still in a taxi, just ten minutes away. The staff were incredibly accommodating, even with such short notice. They welcomed me with a smile and a glass of bubbly while they quickly prepared my room.
The hotel itself boasts a classic, unpretentious atmosphere, a refreshing change from the often sterile corporate hotels. Every member of the staff went above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay. The food was delightful, and my room was comfortable and inviting. I couldn’t have asked for more, particularly considering the exceptional service and value for money. This hotel exceeded all my expectations, leaving me determined to return whenever I need to visit London again.
An Upgraded Stay and a Charming Ambiance
During my stay, I was treated to an unexpected upgrade to a suite. What a wonderful surprise! The Leonard is a true gem, radiating elegance and sophistication just a stone’s throw from Marble Arch.
The rooms, while retaining a timeless elegance, are spacious for London, and the staff are incredibly helpful. While the in-room breakfast wasn’t quite as impressive as on my previous visit three years ago, it was still more than enough for two.
A London Oasis for Every Traveler
My experience at The Leonard was simply unforgettable. The hotel’s location is perfect, and the suite I was given was exceptionally spacious and comfortable. The staff is truly exceptional, always ready to assist with any need, and the bathroom was the most luxurious I’ve encountered in London.
This hotel is perfect for families seeking a comfortable and convenient base for exploring London. The hotel’s location is ideal, with everything you need right at your doorstep. I’ve stayed here twice, in December 2012 and February 2015, with my family, and we all agree that The Leonard is our top choice for a London getaway.
A Quirky and Comfortable Stay
While I spent most of my time exploring the city, the Leonard provided a charming retreat. The hotel’s location is unbeatable, just a minute from bustling Oxford Street but tucked away in a tranquil haven. Although the hotel shows some signs of age, it adds to its unique charm. My room, with its private stairs and quirky layout, was a highlight of my trip. While a bit worn, it was clean and fresh, making it an ideal choice for a single traveler who appreciates a touch of the unusual.
A London Landmark: The Leonard Hotel
The Leonard has been my go-to London hotel for the past two years. The location is unbeatable, placing you right in the heart of Central London, just a short walk from Oxford Street. Everything you need is within easy reach, from restaurants and bars to late-night eateries and supermarkets.
The breakfast is a delightful treat, freshly prepared and nourishing, keeping you energized for a day of exploring. While the rooms could benefit from a few modern updates, such as brighter lighting and updated bathrooms, the staff and amenities are top-notch. The hotel’s 24-hour lobby restaurant, daily housekeeping, and friendly reception staff truly enhance the experience. I highly recommend The Leonard to anyone visiting London.
