Very good hotel with friendly and supportive staff. Located right in the heart of Soho, with Chinatown just up the street. Bed is a bit small for a couple but very comfortable. There are many good places around, so very convenient.

6/10 Good

Overnight stay. Room was a reasonable size, a tad dated and need of freshening and updating for the whole decor - chipped furniture, TV affixed between the windows on a column, preventing the curtains from being closed properly; wardrobe, bedside tables and dressing table could all do with being updated.

10/10 Exceptional

We had a wonderful stay at Thistle Trafalgar Square and couldn't recommend it more highly. The location is simply unbeatable — right in the heart of London with easy access to everything the city has to offer. We were travelling with our 2-year-old son, and the spacious rooms were a real bonus — plenty of room for him to burn off some energy, which any parent of a toddler will know is priceless! The rooms were spotless and well-appointed, and we were treated to stunning views of the London Eye and The Shard — a real wow moment, especially in the evening. The staff were warm and welcoming throughout our stay. I had a meeting to attend and was able to use the space downstairs, where they even treated me to a complimentary cappuccino from the breakfast bar — a lovely and unexpected touch. Clean, comfortable, brilliantly located, and genuinely family-friendly. We'll absolutely be back.
