The Leonard Hotel: a hidden gem in the bustling heart of London. Escape the chaos of the city and find yourself in a charming haven, offering traditional hospitality and warm service.
A Refreshing Change: After a dreadful stay at another hotel, I desperately needed a change of scenery. A quick booking while in a taxi, just my name and no credit card required, landed me at The Leonard. It was like stepping into a time capsule, with a friendly, old-school approach that was a welcome relief from the usual corporate atmosphere.
Exemplary Service: My arrival was met with a glass of sparkling wine while the staff swiftly prepared our room. It was clear that nothing was too much trouble for the friendly and attentive staff. The hotel exudes a cozy, homey atmosphere, making you feel instantly at ease. The food was delicious, and every aspect of the hotel surpassed my expectations.
A Touch of Elegance in the Heart of London
A Luxurious Upgrade: Arriving at The Leonard, we were pleasantly surprised with an upgrade to a suite, adding to the already positive vibe. The hotel boasts an elegant charm, perfectly located near Marble Arch. Stepping inside, you’ll be greeted by a classic ambiance, with well-sized rooms for London. The helpful staff are always ready to cater to your every need.
A Delightful Breakfast: We enjoyed a delightful in-room breakfast, more than enough for two. While the breakfast hasn’t quite matched the quality of our previous stay three years ago, it’s still a delicious way to start the day.
An Unforgettable Stay at The Leonard
A Comfortable Sanctuary: My stay at The Leonard was truly enjoyable. The hotel’s prime location is unbeatable, and the suite I was given was exceptionally spacious and comfortable. The attentive staff were always ready to assist, and the luxurious bathtub was a highlight of my stay.
A Family-Friendly Haven: The Leonard is a perfect choice for families visiting London. The ideal location combined with excellent service makes it a truly memorable experience. Whether you’re exploring the city’s attractions or simply enjoying a relaxing family vacation, The Leonard has everything you need. Our family, with two parents and three children, thoroughly enjoyed our stays in 2012 and 2015, and we would happily return again.
A Quirky and Charming Escape
A Unique and Memorable Room: While I spent most of my time exploring the city, I couldn’t resist the charm of my quirky room at The Leonard. The hotel’s location, just a minute away from Oxford Street, is perfect for those seeking a peaceful retreat after a day of bustling city exploration. The hotel may seem a bit worn down, but this only adds to its unique charm. My room, with its private stairs leading directly to the room, a separate toilet with hanging chains, and a shower within the room, was an unforgettable experience. Though a bit dated, it was clean and comfortable, making it perfect for independent travelers.
A Central London Gem
A Home Away From Home: For the past two years, The Leonard has been our go-to hotel in London. Its unbeatable location in the heart of the city, just minutes from Oxford Street, puts you within walking distance of restaurants, bars, shops, and late-night eateries. The hotel’s 24-hour restaurant, daily housekeeping, and friendly reception staff provide a sense of comfort and convenience. The wholesome and freshly prepared breakfast will fuel you for a day of exploring the city.
Room for Improvement: While the location, service, and amenities are exceptional, the rooms could benefit from some modern updates. Brighter lighting and updated bathrooms would further enhance the overall experience. Despite these minor points, The Leonard remains an excellent choice for anyone visiting London.
