Booked on 50k points. Cheapest rate would've been 180 GBP for a standard room. Might be related to London Fashion week. Unfortunately I cannot find any 2for1 rates in this hotel not for this stay not in the future
Gold treatment:
- Room with no view at all
- 1 bottle of still water. Glass bottle. Branded after the name of the hotel (!)
- Small plate with some fruits
- No lounge access
- No free breakfast
The good:
- Location!!!
- Comfortable, modern, functional room that also feels expensive
- Flat-screen TV is above work desk, can be seen form the work desk
- Tea and coffee making facilities
- Bath and separate shower
- Fast internet, about 5 Mbit/s from each of my devices. Completely free everywhere in the hotel, unlimited number of devices, no authentication
- Great room service, much better than on average
- Nice pool, especially considering location!
On the negative side is breakfast. I didn't like it. Overcrowded, only Full English part of the breakfast. I was redirected from overcrowded main restaurant to a large meeting room. Queues, slow restocking. No cold cuts, no fresh juices, no fish whatsoever. I pre-paid GBP 12 at check-in and was not happy. There are quite a few places nearby to have better breakfast for less. Staff could have been more positive but again... this is central London with no UK based staff.
I would definitely stay again if that location would be handy. This is the best and most luxury Park Plaza I've stayed at so far.
