Blandford Hotel

We stayed here based on a recommendation in the forum. The setup: one adult, one seven year old, good connections to Wembley Stadium and to inner city required. The hotel met all those expectations quite well. It is in a lovely street in the immediate vicinity of Baker Street, although far enough down so as not to be noisy. The hotel itself is pleasant looking and had free coffee and tea available all day as one of those capsule-style coffee makers (a big money saver for me, since it helped me avoid going to the seemingly omnipresent Starbucks in the area!). The breakfast was also decent-- eggs, sausage, mushrooms, musli, yogurt, orange juice, fruit salad, baked beans, bread -- and plentiful.

Our room struck me as fairly typical for London, that is, tidy but quite small, but then again we got a fair deal. (195 pounds for 2 nights, including breakfast). Two complaints: they advertise as offering WiFi, but it was neither free nor did it reach to our room. Second, the hot water in the shower took quite a while to get there. It certainly didn't run out thereafter, but I hate wasting the water. All in all a good experience, and certainly recommended for visitors to Wembley.

Great modern looking hotel, rooms are small but that's Europe! The restaurant in the hotel is phenomenal! The location is great, everything is around the area, even a supermarket....I walked at night alone and never felt unsafe. The rooms were really clean....great place, you won't be disappointed.
