Also not a fan of the breakfast area at Cafe Royal but do like the bar.
I don't like the Rosewood's location in Holborn so that alone would exclude it for me.
Pictures make the walls look somewhat industrial. Is that the impression in person?
How's the breakfast food? Presumably there's room service.
Are the rooms quiet, especially at night?
I see they offer a car and driver for the suites, at least on the days I looked, which can be convenient. I wonder if that includes driving to LHR at checkout, or even pickup before checkin.
Rosewood is convenient to the British Museum, which is a plus for us.
