No lounge, but a welcome drink at the bar, which took way too long to arrive.
Otherwise, not much to report on. Not one of the great luxury hotels of this world and your experience will be impacted by what you pay for it, but seeing how difficult the London hotel market can be, a good option while it is still new and clean!
I had a similarly pleasant experience staying in April. I don't believe I had 'one of the nicest rooms' but it was nicely decorated, if small, and had a window that was not opaque.
Also given a voucher for a drink. The breakfast in the restaurant was on a more limited scale than in other hotels but everything was good quality and espresso-based coffee flowed freely.
The gym in the basement was pretty good but when staying here it is important to buy into the concept of a small luxury property with limited public space right in the centre of everything by St Paul's. Anyone travelling here expecting a different product would indeed be disappointed... not helped by the prices being so high most of the time these days!
