Decent place to stay for a weekend
Reading those many negative reviews confirms my belief that some people simply cannot be satisfied. I stayed at the Strand Palace Hotel last weekend (10-12 October 2008) and was, well, yes, ... satisfied! I mean what else do you expect from a central London hotel?!? My room in the 3rd floor was clean, well-kept, QUIET (!!!), the safe worked (!), and the bathroom was modern and well-equipped. The location is great, and I cannot complain about anything. This comes from someone who spent 60+ nights in different London hotels, and I won't bother now to look for anything else.

Worst hotel I have ever stayed in - and I've stayed in lots
It’s a building site!! They gave me a room on the 4th floor which was impossible to find (they had taken the room number signs down for the decorating). I went back to reception and got escorted to my room, though derelict corridors with loads of electrical wires hanging down outside my room. I complained again and eventually got moved to a room that smelt like someone had died and was rotting under the bed. I think a previous occupant has thrown up all over the room - and the smell was pungent! I was told this was the last and only room left in the hotel (but it did not feel like that)!
I booked the room directly with the hotel - why did they not tell me it was a building site!!
On leaving, I asked the concieage where to get a taxi from, and before he answered he said sorry and just picked up the phone to answer a call before he finished telling me - it was the final insult!

Absolute Cesspit - AVIOID AT ALL COSTS
Very simply avoid at all costs, i could write a million words on this but trust me as a man that spends at least one night away a week this is a total craphole. Just do not bother, anyone who says otherwise is just likely to work for the Hotel. If you want war and peace just contact me.

Pretty Average
We stayed here for two nights to go to see the 'Lion King' show at the Lyceum Theatre.
Theres not much to say here really, the Hotel seemed to be in med refurbishment of the reception area, and they kept changing the location of the check-in desk which was a little strange, but obviously required because of the work. There also was a little confusion at check-in.
The Hotel was big, clean, and the room was average, although we were located at the corner of the building with a excellent view along the strand.
Breakfast was average too. The room was small to average in size, add had the basics, but again nothing to get excited about.
We are returning to london in March '09 have have chosen a different Hotel to try.

highly recommended!
I stayed at this hotel for 2 nights with my boyfriend on our way back from Venice. I found the hotel location excellent and the staff most welcoming and eager to help. We normally stay around Paddington when we visit London but we thought we'd pay the little extra and stay in a much more central location. The hotel is walking distance o Westminister Abbey, Trafalgar Square, Leicester Square, China Town and Covent Garden. Check-in was simple and smooth and we were quickily directed to our room. Our room was a little on the small side but very standard for London, we were fully impressed by the size of the bathroom (which even had a full size tub...a rareity in London hotels of this price range!) The staff concierce desk were polite, full of information and could answer all our questions. Breakfast was the best I have had in a hotel. Full hot and cold buffet breakfast where there was plenty of wait staff however there was a bit of a queue on Saturday cause the hotel was packed but we still manage to stuff ourselves!
Highly recommended, I will definitely book to stay there again on my next visit to London.
