A Welcoming Oasis: Our Arrival and First Impressions
Our stay at the Hilton London Metropole was a pure delight from the moment we arrived. Check-in was a seamless process, thanks to the friendly and efficient staff. The lobby area was a welcoming space, and the hotel’s distinct wings – the East Wing, West Wing, and Towers – added a touch of grandeur. As we entered, the inviting Bow Bar caught our eye, followed by the bustling Tyburn Market, the delectable Tyburn Kitchen, and the trendy Tyburn Kitchen Bar. The hotel’s warm and inviting atmosphere made us feel right at home.
A Sanctuary of Comfort: Our Superior Room Experience
Our two queen bed superior room was a haven of comfort and style. As we stepped inside, we were greeted by a modern, impeccably decorated space. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the room itself was spacious, offering a generous 30-34 square meters of space. The amenities were top-notch, with a 55-inch TV for entertainment, air conditioning to keep us cool, and complimentary WiFi to stay connected. A large desk provided a dedicated workspace, while a well-stocked mini-bar, a coffee machine, and a comfy sofa ensured a truly relaxing stay.
A Taste of Luxury: Our Experience in the Executive Club Lounge
One of the highlights of our stay was access to the executive club lounge, located on the second floor of the East Wing. This haven of tranquility was open daily from 7 am to 10 pm, offering a range of delightful services. We enjoyed a delicious breakfast every morning, from 7 am to 10 am, followed by an indulgent afternoon tea, served from 3 pm to 5 pm. The evening canapés, from 6 pm to 8 pm, were a delightful way to unwind after a day of exploring London. While we could have enjoyed breakfast at the Tyburn Kitchen, which offered a wider selection, we found the executive lounge provided a more intimate and luxurious experience for our afternoon tea and evening canapés. The diverse selection of tasty treats left us completely satisfied.
A Fitness Haven: The Hotel Gym
For those who want to stay active on their travels, the hotel’s gym is a modern marvel. With a spacious 200 square meter area, it offers plenty of room to work out. The high-quality machines and equipment, including the Apple Watch integration, ensured an enjoyable and effective workout. The gym also boasts a wide selection of weights and resistance bands, catering to both strength training and weightlifting enthusiasts. Whether you seek an intense workout or a light stretch, the Hilton London Metropole gym has it all.
A Memorable Stay: Our Final Thoughts

We highly recommend the Hilton London Metropole for anyone looking for a comfortable, stylish, and conveniently located hotel in London. We would be delighted to stay here again on our next trip to the vibrant city.
